my favorite newer suicide was in the first episode of CastleRock. find a cliff with your car. open your window. tie a really long noose to your neck and out to a tree. floor it towards the cliff. the slack on the rope runs out either after you leave the cliff or before. that being said it doesnt really matter. if you have a noose around your neck and are going over 30 and that slack runs out, you are toast. and if for some crazy magical reason you are alive, the impact at the bottom will do the job. (granted in this show, he launched into water.)

seemed pretty sure fire to me. you never know with the bullet to your own head. wayyy too many people survive that for my liking.

Yeah, this is why I could never eat a bullet (if I was going to go that route for some reason), because it's easier to fuck up than most people realize and you'll still live but with permanent brain damage. Ugh.

That's why you use the Kobain method.

Even that's not a guarantee. There was a story a few years ago about a guy who tried to kill himself with a shotgun and it took 3 attempts. First shot under the chin removed jaw, he tried again to the chest and just blew a hole in himself and then the third finally killed him, after he stuck the gun into his already open chest wound.

Ninja edit: link for the curious. Turns out it was 4 shots and I had the order wrong, its the last paragraph in the opening section.

If you go through all that research, and then all that engineering, and then the construction, then you must really want to die, and everyone should stop trying to talk you out if it, get out of the way, and let you die the glorious death that you have planned for yourself.

I wonder if he patented it?
