grifbel Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 In Japan where suicide is common, they actually have common suicide spots listed such as the scary Aokigahara Forest (Sea of Trees as in the movie ) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aokigahara. Sometimes they are in picturesque places such as Kegon Falls, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kegon_Falls https://triplelights.com/blog/beautiful-scary-suicide-r-1924 Scary but true unfortunately.

fhickson Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Suicides are mostly done in lonely places away from the eyes of others. Those that are attempted in public are typically cries for help or attention which often dont succeed. The rooftop and public location jumps we hear so much about in thailand are suspect imo.

These news articles are very short on facts.... A simple statement of "witnesses observed" or "CCTV captured video of" would add some validity to the story On another forums it mentions witness statements which indicated he jumped.

Agreed and well noted by grifbel. This man had a "choice," a choice he made that rests with ONLY him and his god...we and our opinions are completely irrelevant because he cannot hear them.

scubascuba3 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Authorities in every country should allow places where people can go to commit suicide rather than forcing them to jump or hang or something else horrible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently death is not the end. Or visa issues ... He's in a better place now? Do you mean TERMINAL 21? (Pun intended.) Whether death is the end or not is a matter of faith but I think in some faiths offing yourself isn't so well rewarded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, I know what you mean. Funnily enough I was going to add that to my submission- I should have done and then I wouldn't have been shot right between the eyes with friendly fire????????
