}}'''Breath | }}'''Breath play''' (also called '''breath control''') is the intentional interference with the natural oxygen-based gas exchange of the human body for the purposes of sexual gratification. When performed specifically to restrict oxygen to the brain, this is called '''erotic asphyxiation''' (or when performed alone, '''autoerotic asphyxiation)'''. Breath control is a high-risk [[kink]] and a common cause of fatalities in kink-related incidents. | ||

There have been many cases within the kink community of accidental deaths related to breath control, primarily solo breath control. In the Western countries, the incidence of these deaths is of approximately 0.5 deaths per million inhabitants per year. <ref>{{Cite journal |last=Sauvageau |first=Anny |date=2013-12-01 |title=Current Reports on Autoerotic Deaths—Five Persistent Myths |url=https://doi.org/10.1007/s11920-013-0430-z |journal=Current Psychiatry Reports |language=en |volume=16 |issue=1 |pages=430 |doi=10.1007/s11920-013-0430-z |issn=1535-1645}}</ref> | |||
