Meanwhile, in Detroit…
>A 22-year-old mother deliberately climbed a fence to a backyard and allowed herself to be mauled to death by vicious dogs on Thursday in Port Huron, authorities said. Rebecca Hardy died at a hospital with extensive injuries to her face and neck. The death was ruled a suicide from injuries caused by multiple dogs mauling her.
>Investigators have said Hardy climbed over a fence into a backyard at 1721 Tenth Street in Port Huron, where she was attacked first by a pit bull and then by a pit bull-husky mix. A witness attempted to stop the dogs from attacking Hardy. The dog owner eventually was able to subdue the dogs and provide aid to Hardy.
>After the attack at about 4:45 p.m. Thursday, Hardy was taken to Lake Huron Medical Center and later flown to Beaumont Hospital, where she died, the Port Huron Times Herald reports. The two dogs and a pit bull-husky mix puppy were euthanized the next day.
>The medical examiner said he didn't immediately know whether there were signs Hardy resisted the dogs' attacks at any point. He said his office's investigation shows Hardy had recently been kicked out of her house and had attempted suicide in the past. Hardy had an 18-month-old daughter with her fiancé, Matthew Grattan.

The majority of female suicide attempts are usually cries for help/attention rather than attempts committed with the purposeful intent of dying ("I took 5 more ibuprofen than the recommended dose, goodbye everyone ;-;") and I've seen some people suggest that of those women who do die from suicide, a substantial minority of them likely didn't mean it. But this woman…fuck, that's fucking brutal. Voluntarily torn apart by dogs.
I can think of a few other amazing suicides that match up to this, such as the Japanese woman Kiyoko Matsumoto in the 1930's who killed herself by jumping into a fucking active volcano: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiyoko_Matsumoto
And then there's a somewhat infamous gore picture that you sometimes see posted of a guy who deliberately cut himself in half at the waist with a bandsaw.
Anyone got any other examples of utterly absurd and hardcore suicide methods that people have used?
