Sexual choking has become increasingly normalized among young people, largely driven by media, pornography, and peer norms. Although often framed as consensual, breath‐control practices are physiologically unpredictable and can cause rapid loss of ...
Normally, sure. But these days, legalese can turn it into implied consent depending on court, judge, jury, accused and accuser.

I mean you would need it in writing I guess.
Not in common law countries at least (except for where they have medical suicide exceptions)
That would include all forms of medical euthenasia
