(Not OP) interesting story, I disagree on the last part. Many people dont know how to do a proper noose that being said there are deaths known for people who did it with a lot less than a proper noose.
Long drop: you will fall but if your knot does not close rapid enough its torture. It will probably paralize you from the neck and the trick is to block both carotid arteries by quite some force. Those are things you dont want to be blocked or ruptured but if you fuck up you will hang paralized on a rope on a tree untill one of your bodies functions stops. Dont be the unlucky guy who lives for another two hours hanging there. Its torture. Those executioners in history of course knew ehat they did and preformed proper hangings but you dont want to survive that one.
