Thread: How would you 'like' to pass away?

And you went into a dive towards the ground at 100m/s and have about 75 kilograms of mass

Thats about 3680000 joules of energy, and assuming that the human body is 10% elastic(which is highly unlikely) your still exerting 3312000 joules in 2/100ths of a second, definantly going to be enough to break your neck, pulverize your skull, compress your spine, and smash your brain.


Now, if you go legs first and/or are laying in the air perpendicular to the ground, there is a chance you are going to feel some pain(heck some people have even survived)

So a general rule of thumb when skydiving to your death is dive head first so as to crush your brain instantly then ?

quote="dudesuperior"]If you had the choice to die any way you wanted, by which means would you choose to go?

I guess a lot of people would like to die in a peaceful way, but personally I would like to die doing something really cool or exiting- like being killed by a great white shark, or perhaps Skydiving

(And my apologies if anyone is offended/upset by this thread, I understand that dark humour is not to everyone’s taste)[/quote]

Well... I should not answer this, but the Euphoric Way to kill yourself is would be to get a great big 'cable tie' or 'tie wrap' -- a plastic strip that locks end to end, which you can tighten and it will lock in place. You do what the Thugs used to do with their stangulation cords, and place rolled up pieces of cloth under the Tie Wrap Cable Ties so that they will press upon ones arteries leading to the brain. Pull and tighten. If one thinks you might interfer with the process, then arrange another Tie Wrap Cable Tie behind your back for your hands, so that you can no interfer with your death by strangulation. You will have a Death by Light Headedness. There is no better way to go. It is Absolutely Blissful.

If you think you might make a mistake, then slip a plastic bag over the arrangment, and then if the closure of blood to the Brain does not kill you, then suffocation will. But if you do it write, the closure of blood to the brain will knock you out in less than a minute and you will not have to worry about all the flopping around you will have to do from Suffocation. But even with Suffocation, one is already Unconscious by the time all the flopping around engages, so I would guess that is Blissful also.

hmm.. I'll remember that one, Leo. If I need a humane way of killing someone I'll refer back to this thread.

MDMA overdose is my preferred death. Brain dumps all it's serotonin, you die, brain drops all it's dopamine.

In another thread, I mentioned a dream I had about being swallowed alive, and finding it strangely enjoyable. Therefore my chosen death is being swallowed alive, the only problem is what could swallow me alive? The only things that are big enough like snakes, crocodiles, sharks etc, would probably kill me before swallowing.

Or skydive over water...

I wanna die in a way that makes people say, "goddamn that was the most awesome death i have ever seen." Like when something explodes and your body flies halfway across the level, then you hit a plane and flip wildly into the air and land on a tank...

Sadly that only happens in video games. But im open to suggestions if anybody can think of how to apply this to real life.

I would somehow like to die with my bare ass over George Bush's head. That way I'll get to crap on him as my last act. I'll be sticking it to the man from beyond the grave! What's even better is the ramifications in the media... bush gets crapped on by corpse... bush humiliated by cheeky cadaver... covert corpse craps on chief...

I haven't given much thought about this but my friend has.

He wants to die from being struck by lightning on top of Mt. Everest. That would be pretty friggin' awesome.

That is the coolest death ever.

I would like to implode on national television. If that's not possible, I'd just swallow an entire bottle of pain killers. I'd like something painless because I'm a wuss.

fall off the worlds talllest building, be completly unharmed and then be run over by a car.

actually, a tylenol overdose is one of the worst deaths out there. It's really pretty nasty. Opiate overdose is probably not much better, but then again I don't know much about that.

That reminds me of the film "Hot shots". A guy in that film crashed his fighter plane straight into the ground, then got up perfectly unharmed. He then got run over by the ambulance that came to help him. He still survived but died because of an incompetent doctor who used all the morpheen on himself.

I've heard drowning is the best way to die. After a short period of fear you accept the fact that you will die and then you'll start hallucinating or something.

I reckon it would be the worst way , swallowing water sucks , imagine when u got a whole lung full of it ...

I thought of that as one of the worst ways to die. That or burning to death, or dying of starvation or thirst.

Parachute failure after jumping from 30,000 ft in the midst of a supercell explosion over golden plains or savannah at sunset... or maybe over the mountains. Either way would result in an awesome ride, an amazing view, and a quick end. The problem would of course be convincing a pilot to take me up in that sort of environment - so before I die, I'll just have to get my skydiving license and my pilot's license. No problem, though, since I plan to do that anyway.

Crucifiction was designed to be the most painful and horrendous way to die. Do a little research and you'll believe that.

^^^^I just had a look on wikepedia, and it does look a bit painful. It said that nails were sometimes put through the waist, or in between the two bones that make up our forearm

It would be really fun just to get a sled and jump off the top of it. Imagine the rush of adrenaline you'd get as you plumeted 8000m or so until you hit the ground.
I guess an avalanche would be fun. I've had the privalige of seeing one (a small one) in switzerland, and it was soooooo loud! My mum then said 'Is it going to reach us?', bearing in mind it was a mile away and there was a huge, deep valley in between us and it.

christ yeah (sorry )

putting the weight on the nails in your wrist is excrutiating
so for a while, you hold your weight up by your arms
till they get tired
then you have no choice
back to weight on wrists

drowning in warm, clear water. and not the struggling kind of drowning but the drowning like in snatch after mickey gets knocked down and he just floats... yeah...

Oops, maybe I sould have been a bit more clear. I wouldn't want to overdose on tylenol or anything as common as that. I'd try go out with a bit more class. I'm thinking I'd crush up a whole bunch of vicodin or oxycotin.

I heard drowning was a good way to die. Eventually your brain stops getting oxygen, so it's the same feeling you get from huffing paint or glue. (I assume. I don't have any first hand experience with drugs. Or with drowning for that matter, but it makes sense to me.)

Slow oxygen deprivation will cause you to drift off to sleep and die probably in a fairly pleasant manner - like sitting in a closed garage with your car running. Drowning, however, would not be quite so pleasant. Holding your breath is painful, as I'm sure you know if you've ever dived down deeper than you intended without taking a large enough breath before submerging. Your lungs will burn and scream and eventually you'll open your mouth and take a breath. It's an autonomic bodily function. You can control it when you think about it (which is why you're able to hold your breath in the first place), but when you stop conscious thought, you body takes over and restores your breath to its natural rhythm. If it didn't, you'd suffocate in your sleep. So while you're under the water, hoping for a pleasant end, your lungs will begin to ache and you'll fight the urge to breathe - nothing out there but water, after all - and hold your breath. But as the seconds pass, the ache becomes a burn, excruciating like a fire within your chest, flaming as your body screams to breathe! breathe! breathe! You'll fight it - maybe for a minute, maybe two - but eventually your autonomic system will override your mind and its irrational, deadly desires, and your mouth will open and water will rush into the vacuum of your lungs and that burn that you thought couldn't possibly get worse, will. And you will continue in agony until you finally lose consciousness and die.
A good way to go out? You decide.

Well, I would be in a faraway land, where no one knew where I was (no tears), and I would probably go down begging for mercy, b/c of the fact I want to live forever....
*Edited

Well, I would guess that most people would wish to have a painless death. Well along this same continuum I suppose people would find a positively pleasureable death even better.

I fast a lot, that is, I often go for long periods without eating. What happens then is my blood pressure drops and I tend to faint. Nothing feels better than fainting. One loses Body Consciousness into an insensible Field of Bliss... or rather, it feels more like a Wave of Bliss.

The actual mechanism here is that not enough blood is getting to the brain. Typically one faints after getting up from lying down, and the blood falls from the brain and pressure is insufficient to flow new blood back up.

Anyway, if one wanted to kill oneself while putting this same mechanism to work, then one could strangulate one's self, paying attention to the Arteries in one's neck. Those Cable Ties or Tie Wraps that the Police now use instead of handcuffs (plastic strips that join end to end to form a loop, and as they are tightened they grip and cannot be loosened again. To remove them they must be cut.) A large Cable Tie tightened around the neck, with cloths strategically placed inside the loop to press particularly against the arteries --- well, that would be certainly deadly. If one worried about struggling, then one could place another Cable Tie fastened securely at the end, so that one could place one's hands behind ones back, insert them into the loop and pull, thus securing one's hands behind one's back shortly after having tightened the loop around one's neck.

To make double sure, one could place a hefty plastic bag up and around the loop that fastens around the neck, so that if there does happen to be enough blood to keep the brain alive, then the supply of oxygen will be cut off by the bag.

But even with all of these details, I don't anticipate that anybody would remain conscious for more than 30 or 40 seconds, and that one would pass out pleasureably.

Just last week I met with a poor cat that had been struck several times on the road by not killed. I stopped and evaluated the poor thing and saw no hope for it, and so I held in on the little arteries on its neck. Its breathing rate increased and then after about a minute, it convulsed for a few moments, and then it was still.

Shame on whoever knows what the hell I\'m talking about. ~

I had a friend kill kerself this way. She anchored rope somehow and put it around her neck, then leaned forward so it cut off her blood and oxygen supply. We thought she hung herself initially but she was found strangled in a closet (by her poor little sister). I would've thought after feeling yourself losing consciousness, you're body would automatically let the pressure off your neck by backing up or something - but I guess not.
