You can't put weight on any part of someone's neck for more than a few seconds and not risk causing serious injury. On this occasion, I seriously hope you're "joking" or deliberately being obtuse and actually know that. I feel like everyone must know that? I honestly don't know why you would pretend not to. All it does is make you look painfully, in fact in this instance dangerously, stupid.
