Purportedly based on calculations performed by the US Army. I remember having a convo here maybe a year ago with someone asking where this info might reside. Consider yourselves enriched!

Should prove handy for the DOTR.

Too complicated. 9' for all.

The year was 2038, and the Capitalists had finally won, after the food wars of 2035...

The communist was atop the gallows, awaiting xher execution. Xhe weighed a healthy 138 kilograms (fuck the imperialist 305 lbs), not including the Pride Maxima mobility scooter xhe defiantly sat on. Only three feet of rope was allotted to xher, due to the failings of the capitalist system zhe had to suffer under... The executioner looked at zher, with a cold, hard stare...

"You know, you could just get a job? We don't really want to kill anyone, just uhhhh, you aren't exactly carrying your own weight..."

Bravely, zhe felt the floorboards of the gallows creak underneath the weight of zher own justice, as xhe defiantly proclaimed:

"Stahp body-shaming me, bigot!"

The mechanical door opened underneath zher, and the rope around xher neck miraculously snapped due to zher undeniably healthy weight.

It was said that people could hear the hangman roar at the top of his lungs as he pulled the lever: "WHAT THE FUCK IS A KILOGRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAM"

For the average fatty these days you only need about 2 inches drop but you will need some heavy duty rope though.

12 Strand Single Braid Kevlar Rope in 1/2" has a tensile strength of 15.5 tons.

That should take care of most scenarios for the foreseeable future hopefully.

I am scared of a future where 15 tons is not enough to withstand the situational requirements. I suspect the softer portions of the subject matter would rip off long before the rope gives out, however.

If the rope is strong enough to resist breaking under that pressure, it will just result in a decapitation.

Could come in handy

I figure the best bet is to just do it over a suspended drop over a gorge or something. Then even if the rope snaps the problem solves itself.

Imagine being the poor bastard that has to go down and attach the rope to hoist the fatty back out of the gorge

Why bother? If they are worthy to hang they are not worthy of a honorable grave. Let them rot, the birds and bugs will do their job.

I shall retain this for academic purposes.

This chart is also good for telling women the height of a man that they can expect based on their weight.
