Shooting through the ears with shotgun

[barelyholdingon]

My new plan is to shoot through my ears by tilting my head sideways over a 10 gauge with a slug. This should obliterate my mid brain correct?

Depends how you aim the gun but why not just aim in the mouth? Would be much easier I think

I think anything other than intraoral or chest is too tricky to pull off with a shotgun. Just my 2c.

Strange, either above the ear or through roof of mouth, that's it.

That's how people survive shotgun blasts. Terrible idea

No that's not 'it' Look up a diagram of the inside of a head. Through the ears goes right through the mid brain perfectly
Sorry going through bipolar mood swings. Thanks for the advice guys

Depends. If it's aimed at the very front of the hard palate maybe. Aimed at an angle towards the soft palate then you die.

With that 10-gauge cannon, extraordinary conditions must exist to survive. The temporal bone and the great vessels explode. I frankly don't know how anyone can even talk about survival.

Is there a guide to show how to properly hold a shotgun and still have proper placement and reach the trigger without shortening the barrel ?

Before using a firearm to CTB, I believe it is important for people to actually see the after effects of a shotgun to the head. I know there are people who survived with horrible facial injuries, but after watching videos such as the Ronnie McNutt suicide and others, I'm not sure much precision is needed (2021 studies show that 90% of suicide attempts using a gun were successful - I haven't studied the findings that closely but the vast majority of survivals were non-head shots). However, for complete transparency, I have firearms but will not use them to CTB because I gave my word I would not. For me, it's probably the various pain killers I managed to hoard from various surgeries, mixed with alcohol. Also, I find guns to be some what "impulsive" and CTBing is something that should be a very deliberative decision.

I am sure there are more complex ways to do this. What is your chance of successfully hitting the mark?
