Method Jumping from a cliff...thoughts?

[Dizzy]

Hello, first post here, long time lurker on reddit before the sub was banned.

I've been looking at this cliff... "1,200-foot backdrop of sheer granite cliffs" to jump off of.

Do you have any insight on pros and cons?

I thought maybe id take a few Xanax to have the guts to do it but I'm worried by being relaxed I'll have more of a chance to survive.

I also thought maybe I'd do it while tripping on acid just because that sounds like fun.

I'm 5'2 130lbs if that makes any difference. My idea is to dive like I would into a swimming pool, hoping for instant kill. If I survived, I'd at least be surrounded my nature until I die from injuries.

It's a well known rock climbing spot but I'd do it at night when no one is around.

Thoughts and suggestions? Thanks

at 1,200 feet it doesn't matter if you dive or not. You're guaranteed death by jumping

I'm no expert but I think with that height you're on to a sure thing.

Face backwards and fall backwards off the the Index Town Wall.

If it's a straight fall downwards you will not survive. If you hit any ground before that and roll, then your chances of survival increase.

So yeah, If it's a straight drop off, you have nothing to worry about.

Ok. I'm just curious what will being backwards achieve? First impacts to the spine?

Yeah I'm a little worried about hitting the side of the wall and slowing down my fall. I suppose I could run and jump?

Don't see why not.

At that height it won't matter. It's just how I would do it.

I wouldn't fall backwards off a cliff, off a bridge maybe.

If you are at risk of hitting the sides yeah.

Is there a history of suicide off this cliff? Index Town Wall?

I'm personally against jumping in general because of the chance that you'll die slowly after impact. Had a friend kill himself by jumping from a lower height than this and he took two days to die. Just sounds like a bad way to go to me. But, having said that I think this is high enough that you will probably die pretty fast especially if you land on rocks.

However I would like to ask you not to do it on acid. I get the appeal, I love LSD. It's my favorite drug.

But for one thing, it would be horrible to be slowly dying while smashed to bits on rocks while you were on LSD.

And more importantly, if the coroner finds LSD in your bloodstream think of what would happen when the media gets its hands on that information. Think of what that would do to LSDs image with people who don't understand it. The last thing society needs is the media telling it that if you take LSD you'll jump off a cliff, which is exactly how they would spin it.

So please don't take LSD and do it.

 

[Retched]

That's some cliff....sure enough it would be a done deal.

I don't know. I camped near there and I just thought it was beautiful and perfect. I'll look into it

I hear you. You're right. But if I did lsd a few days before wouldn't it show in my system the same? Because of the way we can test it.

But you are right. I'll just do it some time before for fun. I don't need to go out on it.

After a quick Google search it looks like people have died/been injuried from rock climbing failures. Couldn't find anything about jumping. If anyone else does, let me know.

Seems odd. It looks like an ideal place to jump for suicide. Maybe the press there want to keep it quiet?

 

[Dizzy]

I kind of think I need a flying squirrel onesie for this.....

Sorry to be a killjoy, I just love LSD and don't wanna see it defamed any worse than drugs already are. And yeah, LSD has quite a short metabolic half life despite its long effective duration. So if you took it a few days before it'd definitely be out of your system.

Looks like a beautiful place to take it though, maybe you could just go hang out there for a day and connect with where you plan to end it all. Bring a portable speaker and a picnic or something. Looks like America? If I lived there I'd come take acid with you at your death spot :P

Most adorable suicide ever haha

 

[OkTotti]

The cliff is near a lot of other mountains and i guess cliffs. Maybe look for other locations? All you need is about 250 feet to guarantee death. Perhaps a high rise in the city?

It's way gorgeous. It's Pacific Northwest America, yeah. I was thinking of taking a hike to check it out but I'm afraid I'll jump too soon.

Can you imagine?? "Oh God! Oh ....ppffttbbb-- is that..?? Heh heh ...oh God *puke*"

Nature calms me. I want to be with it. Honestly this is just my first thought. Maybe I could climb way out where no one would find me so I could succumb to the earth completely.

 

[worldexploder]

I definatly would go for it if I could access the area. This is a guarenteed instant death. I'm gonna be jumping soon from a height of 876 feet.

I know what you mean. I grew up surrounded by a lot of nature and I feel like I need to be in it. If that's where you want to leave this earth then that's what you should do. I'm going to drive out to a rainforest and use inert gas asphyxia and it's where I want to be.

Can you imagine?? "Oh God! Oh ....ppffttbbb-- is that..?? Heh heh ...oh God *puke*"

Ahahaha

Hey, if you want attention I'm pretty sure the media would go nuts for the story of the girl who thought she was a flying squirrel.

YoullY be fine with that height
