The old game we use to play where one hyperventilates, then holds his breath and
someone else wraps his arms around them and compresses their chest uses this.  
We
use to do it as kids until someone died doing it and it was in the paper.  It 
makes
you pass out for about 15 ot 20 seconds.

The hyperventilation causes CO2 to leave the blood, causing the ph to rise, and
cause alkalosis.  Then the body starts metabolising O2 like mad to make more 
CO2 to
bring down the ph.  Then when you hold your breath, the CO2 is trapped in the 
blood,
the ph overshoots and becomes acidic, and you go from alkalosis to acidosis.  
The
result is severe shock to the body and unconciousness.  Once breathing resumes, 
the
excess CO2 eventually makes it out of the blood, it goes back into normal ph 
range,
and you come to.  If you don't start breating again, then you die.

Don't try this at home.
