shock by electrical devices in the bathtub

Why not kill yourself electrocuted by electrical devices in the bathtub. I saw a lot of films where people die in that way...

I'm not sure if it's guaranteed to be lethal or just painful. I think nearly every appliance made within the last 20-30 years is also built with safety mechanisms to make this impossible.

Lostallhope gives electrocution a 65,5% success rate. It also states that it'll take 2,4 minutes and it gives it a relatively high pain rating with 72.

Lostallhope isn't very specific though. Honestly, I think @cornflowerblue is right - safety mechanisms inside toasters (for example) are likely to make sure that you'll suffer a lot, but survive. Remember, lostallhope's stats are based on stats from 1988-1991.

There are also the overload protections and fuses on your property's electrical supply. Please don't do this.

We want to die, right! and no by a accident, so it's just make sure the tub will have enough electricity to kill you.

It will not work, any current leakage above 30mA towards ground will trigger instantly the residual current circuit breaker.

I didn't even think about the fuses and all that but you're right. Some houses have built in surge protectors too.
