/suicide/ - Suicide Tips & Tricks

I would not recommend it. I have heard the purity of those tanks is very circumspect part of the reason they are so cheap.

There might be as much as 10% impurities in them. Or often the tanks may have been partially emptied of their gas without your knowledge.

Also balloon time helium has a built in flow restriction that will prevent the proper use of the bag method. If the pressure inside the bag gets high enough to force air out the bottom the tank may significantly slow down or stop delivery of air after you already passed out. You can probably solve this problem by attaching a hose out the bottom of the tank to allow the pressure out more easily. These tanks are designed to fill balloons without them popping so they will cut off flow if the pressure gets high.

If possible use medical He not balloon He. Medical He by law has to be 99%.

Will it still kill you? yes it will, however the large potential impurities might cause you enough pain to abort.

You can increase your chances by not using a mask. By emptying your breath before you put on a hod to breath the He and using a large bag. As well as restraining your hands and legs.

I found something that might helpful while searching for that method when I bought my heli-tank last night:

It has some instructions on how to effectively off yourself with a helium party balloon tank. It's from the book "The Final Exit Handbook".

Though the info is from a usenet group and from a book published in the early 90s so it might be obsolete by now.

Still, I feel kinda ripped-off. Should I return the tank I bought?

If you only bought 1 tank, how are you ripped-off?

>>6635

Because considering the reason I bought it, it's useless to me.

the money on it would be better spent on a more effective method. or something I would've enjoyed in my final moments like booze.

>>6637
You bought a tank to off yourself.
Then you read about some brass flow regulator for a few shekels.
Suddenly the tank is useless.

What do I fail to see?
(sorry for asking stupid questions maybe.)

>You can probably solve this problem by attaching a hose out the bottom of the tank to allow the pressure out more easily.
What do you mean by this? I don't understand.

>>6679
That was a typo.

It should read

"You can probably solve this problem by attaching a hose out the bottom of the bag/hood to allow the pressure out more easily.

Just some way so the pressure inside the bag does not get too high and can release.

>>6681
Ohh, okay, thank you. That makes sense.

What you gonna do, OP? Float to the moon?
