Famous suicide photos and videos

[nitrogen]

Relax, sensitive SS'ers, I'm not gonna show you the hardcore stuff I watch during breakfast. Instead, here's just some really bland yet still cool stuff.

The most beautiful suicide: A 23 y/o girl jumped off of the Empire State Building's observation platform (86th floor) on May 1, 1947, landed on the roof of a parked limousine on the street below.


Self-immolation Buddhist monk: A Vietnamese Buddhist monk burned himself to death at a busy Saigon intersection on June 11, 1963 in protest.


The Jonestown mass suicide: 918 people immediately died after drinking Kool-Aid laced with cyanide under their cult leader's command. Oooo, Kool-Aid with cyanide definitely sounds better than SN in plain water if you ask me.

Am amazed that the first girl still looks so classy considering the height she jumped from. It's as if she's sleeping.

Just found this photo, but it might be a bit much for ya'll (train decapitation):

Spoiler: Good God :o

Anyway, about that farm in Guyana...

Not trying to insult anyone... but have to ask.
Are people here simply because they are obsessed with/by death as opposed to those who actually need forums like this one as a safe place to learn and discuss CTB options???

 

[Quax]

I don't like such content...this is not a gore site!

 

[voyager]

Sorry, mine wasn't what you thought. Guess I built it up too well.

I think it's not about being obsessed with death I think for some reading and finding out about other people's suicides is just comforting because it reminds us that we are not the only ones who feel this way and want to kill ourselves. And even makes us feel braver, knowing that some people have already faced the physical pain and what comes after death, so we can too.

There's a huge difference between reading and finding info and sharing gore sites and photos and videos of gory deaths.
Really not the purpose of this site

Budd Dwyer press conference suicide video link:

https://www.bestgore.com/suicide/budd-dwyer-suicide-video-footage/

I've read about the most beautiful suicide many years ago for the first time, and honestly I can't even quite put the words right about what it feel about it. I guess the best way is, I kinda wish I could do it in a way that ended up this bueatiful.

Depends on the video, imho. Can't speak for everyone but at least hanging videos have helped me a lot to get a feel for it and rid me off my fears. Was always extremely afraid of suffocating, but done right it's actually quite peaceful. The emphasis here is on "right", and pictures do say more than a thousand words. Have seen one which didn't go so well and that scared me immensely. But her video will save plenty of us from making the same mistake.

Beautiful suicides? Really?? Sorry, but I can't see that at all! A suicide is sad....always! No glorification needed!

Even finding gory videos and photos can be a part of trying to feel braver too. You see someone go through this and maybe it makes you feel braver and less lonely in this pain.
Honestly, no offense, but it's really not up to you to decide what's the purpose of this site, nor is it up to me. It was created to let suicidal people talk about suicide in any way they wish, openly and without fear with people who might be feeling the same way. Yes that includes sharing gory videos because sometimes one watches them and wishes they could talk to someone about it.
Now on the other hand I gotta say this, this person created a whole separate thread and even warned what they are posting, everyone who didn't want to see such things had every chance of choosing not to see it. Even the gun shot video, if you read the caption on that site before the video, the caption describes exactly what happens in the video, you can choose not to click on it and not to start watching.
And the last thing I'll say is, when I first found this site, more than half a year ago, lots of people posted suicide videos, photos and links here in threads. It included stuff like hanging videos(which were also used to help people learn how to do it properly) and other types of deaths, and stories and photos, as far as I remember. These kind of stuff were very much a normal part of this site because among other things, they were a great research for people, even if it was just to find out about what kind of mess can a gun shot do or some other things to learn.

Beautiful suicides? Really?? Sorry, but I can't see that at all! A suicide is sad....always! No glorification needed!

It's not in a way as a glorious sunrise or a beautiful painting, or a beautiful flower kind of beautiful.
it's a different kind of beauty, there's also sad beauty, and this is what I'm talking about. Yes, suicide is sad and painful and just plain shit, and I'm not trying to glorify it or erase the ugliness of it. I just meant, to leave your body in a position like that after a fall and on a car made of metal that was broken to look like it's almost hugging your body, is beautiful. There's beauty in pain too you know, how much poetry is there that was inspired by and comes from pain, how many songs and paintings are created about painful events? Those things are ugly in a way of what kind pain they express but also beautiful. Pain isn't just some kind of ugly beast unneeded in life, it's a part of life. Like day and night. Night and darkness are scary but they can be beautiful too.
But I completely understand how it's difficult to see it from our position when we are drowning in pain, I more often than not too think that it's just savagery.

I don't click on any of the links, thanks.

No one can honestly try to justify enjoying watching gore videos as valid 'research'.
No one needs to watch anyone blow their brains out in order to 'learn'.

There are a lot of people here on the edge. people suffering from serious depression and PTSD.
People who have lost loved ones to suicide, gunshots and drowning... and they don't need to be triggered .

There are very, very few safe places for people on the verge of suicide to come to learn, tell their stories, trust others and learn safe methods.

There are plenty of sites out there for people to view gore if that's their desire.
If that's your thing, then knock yourself out... but don't try to pass it off as research.

Can we stay on topic please and not turn this into a debate about the finer points of what should or should not be allowed on the site. Thanks

I didn't say that it was just research. Did you completely ignore the part where I said that it also makes people feel better just to watch it and talk about it?
and yes even for those who lost a loved to a gun shot, sometimes they might want to see it just to have a better idea of what their loved on went through, just to know better what kind of pain they might've been in, and in a way maybe even feel a little closer to them, as they almost shared the experience.
And another thing, did you also just completely ignore the part where I said that if someone doesn't want to see such stuff they can just skip the thread that's full of warnings about what it contains? I'm not gonna repeat it, you can just read it again.
And yes you are right there are places online to watch and post gory videos, but none of those places have people like here who want to watch and discuss them from a suicidal point of view. Most of the comments on those sites are just assholes laughing at people in pain, not exactly somebody you wanna talk to.
And the last thing, this site was made for everyone. I don't understand what's your problem exactly, it's not like I'm saying if you don't like it then leave, I'm saying if you don't like the ONE thread among MANY others then just don't read it. Unlike you who IS saying that we who want to discuss such stuff should leave or stop. We are all in this together and we have to learn to share this space.
This place was created with a purpose of not censoring suicidal people, and it's exactly what we are using it for.
And in now way did I try to justify anything, I don't think I need to justify anything. If you don't agree don't watch these kind of videos and move on, but some want to watch them, so that's what we gonna do.

Can we stay on topic please and not turn this into a debate about the finer points of what should or should not be allowed on the site. Thanks

You are right.

I just wanted to add. I'm sorry if I come if as mean, in no way did I mean any disrespect to you or anything like that. I might get passionate sometimes about some things and you know...
But in no way did I want to hurt your feelings, I hope I didn't but if I did, I'm sorry - it wasn't my intention, I have nothing against you personally.

Budd Dwyer is the best. I wish I had his balls

That actually is a sad story. He was put in the corner and the hammer was about to fall on him for corruption. The sad part is, he wasn't apart of it and the person who was gotten away with it. Even admit that they were the cause in some documentary and talked to Budd before he took his life.

There is a few documentaries that cover this, and his last day with his family is even sadder

What you're seeing isn't someone who wants to die from the start. It's someone who was put in a corner, and he felt that's his best option out.

With that being said. There is a video where a news journalist blown their head off on live TV. I'm not sure why

Hah! Once upon a time (not long ago), I started a suicide image and video gallery thread which quickly got removed - I shouldn't have directly attached gif without warning, it was on me. I suppose most people are conflict-averse and don't want to risk becoming like this, so they lurk in the background:


You're amazing, like this badass cat:


Regarding the "most beautiful suicide", it actually baffles me how intact the woman was from an 86th-floor fall. I saw no mention of anything breaking her fall on her way down. In comparison, this person fell from the 36th floor and became a total splatter https://www.bestgore.com/murder/vacation-throw-death-36-floor-resort-thailand/

I get it now! even if you didn't warn about the gif you posted it sounds like your whole thread was about depiction of suicide so the thread itself should've been warning enough for people to know what they might see in it. So it seems like it got deleted wrongly, and you were in the right and you were wronged.
I'm sorry it happened to you, I'm sorry people tried to censor you, they don't have the right to! This forum was made for everyone and for every aspect of the suicide subject!
Also, thank you, that cat has my energy and I feel it!
And same, about your thoughts on the most beautiful suicide, I never read anywhere that her fall was broken by anything and honestly I don't think it was, because looking at the photos of the Empire State Building it doesn't seem like it would have anything to break a fall there, plus if her fall would be broken it could mean that her body could break in some places upon the impact mid fall and maybe break a bone like a leg or an arm or even her back, which would mean her body might've been disfigures in some way upon reaching the ground. And it seems fully intact. It's like magic. I've also seen some other fall videos and the end result was never pretty when hitting the hard ground. Maybe it's because she fell on a limo? The car's roof is different from a concrete ground, I don't know, maybe because the roof could also bend from the impact it somehow let her body stay intact?

 

[voyager]

Yeah, it's the car. Still amazing though at 86 floors. Have heard something similar before but from the Eiffel Tower. Apparently a woman jumped, fell on a car, survived(!), and then married the owner. But that's probably just a tourist tale in the city of love.
