Breath Play is extremely dangerous to both parties involved. The bottom does lose brain cells each time and while it is one of those ultimate tests of complete and absolute trust and confidence that the top does have the necessary knowledge, experience, and control to know just how far to go, it also begs the question.... how many people expirement with breath play without a clue re the dangers involved, and where does the 'safety' and 'sanity' come into play re breath play? If the adventure of breath play becomes more and more exciting with each time stretching the limits just by a little bit more, then the risks of eventually going too far become a stark reality. This has been found true in many cases of autoasphyxiation, whereby the subject eventually goes too far and fails to return. I have been unfortunate enough to have come across a few of these cases, personally, in the past and the aftermath investigation and reporting is not much fun. If the top, on the other hand, goes just that little bit extra one time (all it takes is once), then even though it may be consentual, the top (under the doctrine of 'reasonable man') is legally expected to understand the possible consequences and in so doing, cannot have any legal claim of justifiability. At best, it then becomes a manslaughter, and most likely a voluntary manslaughter. Then again, a skilled and knowledgeable prosecutor would probably not have too much difficulty in convincing a jury on a murder charge in a case of breath play whereby the bottom ends up dying as a result. For me, that's too risky either way...the risk of being charged and convicted for murder or manslaughter. Leonardo
