Squeezing or holding a person's neck to restrict their breathing. May be used as an attack to render someone unconscious, or as part of [[rough sex]] or [[BDSM]] play.

If the person is completely unable to breathe, then it's also [[asphyxiation]].

The less violent form of this is [[hands on another's neck]].

Not to be confused with [[choking on object]].
