Original Note:
A blood choke causes brain death if applied for 4-5 minutes. While such chokes are used in martial arts contests, fighters are medically cleared in advance and refs stop the fight as soon as a fighter loses consciousness (typically 10 seconds into a choke). https://www.pottstown.org/DocumentCenter/View/211/Strangulation-Information-for-Victims
