Discussion electrocution

[jaroz]

i was originally going to go via hanging. however now im weighting sodium nitrate or electrocution. any information on the process of electrocution?

any information on the process of electrocution

you need electricity allegedly

Sounds like my marriage

Electroction doesnt seem like a surefire, saw on the news that in some cases people survived after electrocution.
Why considering this method, you want to make it look like an acident?

a friend of mine suicide from electrocution 4 months ago

Electrocution is EXTREMELY painful!!! It literally cooks your body alive from the inside out while it travels to find the ground. No. No. No.

I am usually reluctant to weigh-in on these kinds of topics but please, seriously consider abandoning this method. If relative peacefulness is something that you would like to factor in your choice of method at all, then something as violent and agonising as electrocution is not the way to go about it.

i was hoping for a chance to cause immediate cardiac arrest if possible, or possibly the chance of overloading the back of the medula (base of the neck controlling the heart) to cause immediate death

So home mains is not a sure thing at all. Even 440 isn't a guarantee, it can just knock you out of your shoes. Sometimes it just goes over the surface of your skin and leaves you badly burned but your heart is fine. What you need are amps more than volts, if you're going this route. Like third rails for electric trains or power lines. A fork in an outlet isn't going to do it. Hell, even electric chairs don't have a 100% track record and they were made specifically for the purpose you seek.

A guy here injured after he accidentally touched a power line with his fishing rod. He was concious during the whole process. Pls, consider something else.
You are also considering sn, arent u, whats your concern about sn ?

People survive lightning strikes so there are too many variables and what ifs for me. Not to mention being microwaved internally sounds like a rather painful experience.

people survyng lyghtyng stryke are very very rare, yts mylyons of volts, yts lyke sayng people survyve plane crashes yts not sure way.but they are 1 yn 100000000

@lymbo it's actually not as rare as you might think. The last statistic I saw was 100 strikes roughly in the US per year and maybe 85-90 mortality. I'd take a 1 in 10 chance on the national lottery any day. But definitely not with my method.

Well the guy who climbed the electric tower downtown and grabbed the wires here where I live pretty sure managed to off himself

where was that

Wroclaw / Poland. One third of the city was out of power because of it

I was originally thinking about electrocution as a method

I was actually making a makeshift blueprint for this to test how effective it could be yesterday, long story short it's possible but you need 2,450V for 15 seconds then wait 20 seconds repeat again up to 3 times. I honestly think electrocuting people is a dumb idea without the proper measurements. First of all voltage doesn't kill you Amperage does and with a resistance that "may vary from 1000 ohms for wet skin to over 500,000 ohms for dry skin." it's hard to figure out without the right tools.

Note: This is an overview not a detailed guide, I'm not going to blind you with I=Io*e^(−t/RC)

1. How do you even get 2450V in the first place? - Well your regular outlets should have around 120 volts (depends on your country) and your kitchen outlet should have double that aka 240V. Capacitors store energy for later, you have 10 capacitors set up correctly you'll have 2400 volts available. The more Farads a capacitor has the longer it takes to charge and the longer it takes to discharge (Aka you'll get more volts for a longer time)

2. You said amps were important not voltage! - ~2450 volts represents the number used when they electrocuted people in the chair they probably already did the math for the skulls resistance, Voltage = Current*Resistance; V = IR; V/R = I; 2450 / (skull resistance/point of contact) = I

3. Well how do I set it up? It's similar to a defibrillator honestly "https://ibb.co/z7g4qBp" For decent simulations I'd recommend falstad (google falstad circuit), then LTspice which is more accurate but harder to use

4. Finally I would NOT recommend it if you don't have the background / willingness to learn about engineering. And even then there are better ways in my opinion, but obviously it's your choice.

5. Please don't underestimate how complex electricity can be, my class started off with 300 students of which the average grade was ~90% in highschool. 60% failed the first year, by the final year there was 30-60 of us

Ask me questions if you like

Electricity finds the fastest way to the ground, fortunately passing over your skin is more effective than going through your body to reach the ground, that being said a defibrillator can literally stop your heart so I mean if you do this method right it's like a mini taser lmao
