* A Pokemon fanfic (one of a series that begins with ''Sword and Shield'' and features Mewtwo as the partner to a human homicide detective named Brenda Johnson) has Mewtwo and Brenda investigate one of these gone wrong. Mewtwo is disturbed, while the rather jaded Brenda finds it darkly amusing.

* ''DoctorWho'' has provided FetishFuel in this area - one of the first things the Sixth Doctor ever did was try to strangle his attractive, [[MostCommonSuperpower well-endowed]], but rather irritating companion Peri.

** In the episode "Business Guy", when Lois' father, Carter falls into a coma, it turns out that he left video wills for several situations:

[[AC:Theatre]]
* In ''WaitingForGodot'', while debating possible ways to pass the time, one of the protagonists suggests hanging themselves to get an erection.

** Ponder this, grasshopper: what is the sound of [[IncrediblyLamePun one hand fapping]]?

"Intentionally cutting off oxygen to the brain for sexual arousal", to quote TheOtherWiki. A general term for sex acts that involves either restricting one's own breathing for intensified sensations during masturbation or one party restraining the breathing of another. Needless to say, this particular paraphilia includes all the risks associated with asphyxiation, including fatalities. Thus it's generally considered to fail the "safe" part of [[SafeSaneAndConensual SSC]]. Sometimes it will be a plot point that what at first appears to be a masturbation session gone wrong is actually a disguised murder.

* In ''TheWorldIsNotEnough'', Electra mentions that a man being throttled to death will get an erection and straddles Bond's waist as she [[IfYouKnowWhatIMean turns the screws on him]].

* ''TheRulingClass'' begins with a lord's family having to cover up the fact that he died in such an incident. In a tutu.

* Arguably, X Japan lead guitarist [[HidetoMatsumoto hide]]'s death. It's still arguable (there's everything from [[BlatantLies claims that he was trying to relieve shoulder pain]] to accusations that he was actively suicidal to [[ConspiracyTheory conspiracy theories]] that he was murdered for some reason or other) but this is the most likely possibility considering how he was found....

Not to be confused with [[MarshmallowHell Mammary Asphyxiation]]. Related to OutWithABang, if you do it wrong. Possibly related to TooDumbToLive, in any case.

->'''Sex Addiction Therapist:''' Most likely, you'll end up going the way of David Carradine and Michael Hudgens: Autoerotic Asphyxiation.

* ''{{Ever17}}'': The "Sora" and "Tsugumi-Sora" routes have a somewhat disturbing scene where Takeshi becomes aroused by Tsugumi while she attempts to strangle him.
** Not quite. He becomes aroused (a bit) when she tackles him down, but understandably gets mad when she strangles him.
