I support despots too. But only from a noose. Its kind of difficult at first because the jerk and twist and spasm for some reason, but after a short while they calm down and it becomes much easier. They do begin to rot shortly afterwards though, which is why I have them stuffed and mounted, so I can support them from a trophy rack in my rec-room. (Much less strain on my back that way.)
