Answer: The man will face execution shortly.

Explanation:

The scenario described is that of a man who is about to be hanged because there is a rope around his neck and he is looking down at open space.

This is not an attempt to kill himself either because the man's hands are tied behind his back and he could not have down this by himself.

The most reasonable prediction therefore is that the man is about to be executed by hanging.
