/suicide/ - Suicide Tips & Tricks

p.s. obviously a few seconds of pain wouldn't matter much. Still want to know what's head, anyway. Do many people jumping from that height take long to die? etc.

OP here. Your questions are easy.

http://lostallhope.com/suicide-methods/jumping-high-building

To be safe you want to go quite a bit higher. 6 story building could kill you but is also asking for survival with lifelong brain-damage and disability. What I'm asking is what happens, and how much chance of that there is, when you do it really right and jump from 400 feet or so.

>>9282

Thank you so much OP.

This is exactly what I was looking for.

I thought I had a chance with 6 to 7 stories but not even 10 to 15 is guaranteed.

I don't know what the fuck I'm going to do now because nothing is that high and accessible to get off where I live now, probably save up a train ticket to San Francisco and jump off the Golden Gate.

I'll lurk this to know the pain info. I can only imagine it'll feel worse then guns, pills, suffocation, or even decapitation though (that last one I head is actually somewhat painless).

Fire is probably the worst way to go, this seems like the second.

I know its risky to jump feet first but I can't imagine jumping head first. The pain from that seems worse.

>>9283

From what I've seen pain from feet first is likely worse, because your brain is able to process the excruciating pain whilst not having been directly knocked unconscious yet. There's also a higher risk of survival and thus almost infinitely more physical pain in this life.

I'm not advising you to go or aiding you, as I don't know what comes after, just trying to work out my own methods. I am worried about the pain of this method, like you.

Survival rates at Beachy Head seem to be only from failures. I haven't found an example of one who jumped 400ft and survived yet, but I want to know for sure. From what I've seen about the Golden Gate, it's jumping feet first at a particular angle which seems to have been the only way people have survived. Not sure if anybody has survived there head first.

>>9283

Actually, if you jump feet first, you're gonna hit your feet and then your head after that, so you're getting two times the pain, when if you jump head first, you're just gonna get the pain from the head.

>>9286

But do we know whether the pain from rapid deceleration + trauma is really felt, or if it's like being knocked out cold?

>>9285

>>9286

Thank you for the prompt response. It really means a lot and is exactly what I want to know.

Its a weird survival instinct that's getting me to think feet first. Logically I know I don't want to survive at all, but having attempted before I know that if I can't beat my survival instincts now, I won't be able to beat them when I'm in that moment when they are hyped up from dopamine.

I can only accept it for what it is.(When your in panic mode attempting a suicide thats what gets you to tear off the fucking noose or throw up the pills. Its hard to beat, that's why jumping seems the best regardless of pain)

Still, what about the possibility of jumping backwards, facing the sky with your hands stretched out like floating in water?

I don't think my mind would process that in fear, so that might be a good angle?

>>9288

I think that answer depends on if its in land or water.

From what I've read, feeling knocked out is what its like from jumping off bridges into water.

>>9289

I don't know, sorry. I'm not sure you'll know either without having practiced sky-diving. I'm worried about my survival instinct with jumping and being able to, and for that reason am considering hanging. I think individually one needs to find a method both lethal and which we can actually get our particular bodies/brains to do. I think it's probably better to wait than to get that wrong, given potential consequences of failure.

>>9290

Jumps into Golden Gate apparently die most often from chest injuries, whereas those from Beach die from Brain Hemmorhage. I really want to know what the latter actually feels like (to the best of our knowledge) and chances of failure. Anybody who knows/could find out, please answer.

>>9292

I'm sorry I can't find the full article, but start with looking for Kevin Hines.

I remember reading a full account of his survival off jumping the golden gate and it was really descriptive of the pain felt.

Keep in mind he jumped feet first however, but we wouldn't be able to tell from a first hand account if he had jumped any other way.

>>9291

I agree with you.

The most important thing is choice however, so don't actually set out to jump unless you are clear of your survival instincts now, else you can fall off accidentally, someone will talk you down and you'll be hospitalized/arrested (if off the freeway bridge), etc.

If you want time to think before like I do, I suggest to go at night. At least to avoid crowds as well.

(Not pro-lifing in anyway, but I believe suicide should be on one's own terms 100%, not by chance. Unless your open to that I suppose, then go for it.)

If you can jump from something high enough to allow you to reach terminal velocity, hitting should not really be felt for a couple reasons.

1: have you ever fallen off of the monkey bars at school (only applies if you're around 30 now, since playgrounds are banned), and hit the ground? Yeah, it doesn't really hurt if you hit hard enough and don't twist a joint or hyperextend something. You feel the pain later, though.

2: If you hit hard enough, your head will whip into the ground and pretty much paste your brain before you can feel any pain from the initial impact, which would likely stop your heart as well.

I'm only basing this on the non-fatal injuries I've experienced in the past, with my useless knowledge of basic kinematics.

If you can keep your eyes closed the whole time, you won't tense up right before impact or reflexively try to land the "jump", which tends to leave one with shattered limbs, ribs, pelvis, and spine, protecting the all-important brain at the expensive of everything else. So that's a long and torturous death.

>>9278

Try taking painkillers or get hammered before jumping?

I've thought about this as well, the most important thing is to land right. Maybe you could make your head a bit heavier in order to more likely fall head first, dunno ;)

> playgrounds are banned

Sorry for the OT, but what? In what country(ies)?
