How long does it take to die by hanging yourself?

It varies depending on a person's weight and how far they drop down when they step off the platform. It ranges from instant decapitation to taking an hour or so. There are actually three ways that hanging can kill you - decapitation, a broken neck, or suffocation. Decapitation results from a very long drop. People have recovered from hanging in which their neck is broken, and they are paralyzed for life. Suffocation from hanging can result in convulsions, shock, and dizziness to name a few. The person may also recover and have a condition where the brain enters the spinal cord. This results in death within a few days to a few years.

When was the last execution by hanging in the US?

Answer: On January 25 1996 Billy Bailey was hanged by the state of Delaware where, until 1996, hanging was still the default execution method unless the condemned opted for lethal injection. Billy Bailey refused to choose lethal injection, and thus was executed by hanging. In some states hanging is still an option, but must be chosen by the condemned, which almost never happens. Unless it is for Treason that has only public hanging as the penalty. Hanging is the only legal option in Nebraska, Montana and New Hampshire and Washington (the State of course ; DC is not "Washington" lawfully, it's only a nickname they gave themselves. Their lawful name is District of Columbia.) And actually hanging is the most painless and fast death when done correctly. It is more humane then the needle of chemicals or the electric chair.
