The heaviest part of a fridge is the bottom. Even if you flip the fridge upside down and do it that way, death is probably less than 1%.

is that method, having something crush my skull even viable or have movies made me underestimate how tough our skulls are?

Your skull is pretty tough, I just couldn't tell you the exact weight it would take to crush it. I don't know that crushing your skull is even a method, I've never heard of anyone ctb that way.

For Those Who Crave a Certain, Painless, and Splatter-Filled End

Screenshot 20250626 105626962 1

Dropping a refrigerator on your head is no guarantee of death, nor is it a quick method. A fridge (80–120 kg) doesn't fall perfectly vertically or with clean acceleration: it tends to tilt, bounce, strike at an angle, or simply shift on impact. In most cases, the result is a severe but non-lethal head trauma, fractures to the face, neck, clavicle, and a high chance of surviving in a horrific state. Death is not guaranteed, nor is loss of consciousness. Pain is. It's a cartoonish idea that in reality only leads to partial injuries and prolonged suffering.

A hydraulic press, on the other hand, doesn't fail. A workshop press, rated from 20 to 100 tons, applies vertical force that exceeds the structural resistance of the human skull by orders of magnitude. A skull fractures at around 1,500 newtons, while a press can deliver up to a million. The piston descends slowly, steadily, relentlessly. The moment it touches the cranial dome, the bone implodes, splintering into dozens of sharp fragments, and the intracranial contents — brain, blood, cerebrospinal fluid — explode outward. The face collapses, the eyes pop or flatten, the cranial base gives way, and the brain crushes itself into a gray-red paste between the steel plates. No scream, no margin for error. It all happens in under a second. Where the fridge is clumsy and uncertain, the press is surgical, final, mechanically lethal. The human body under a press has no defense. Only silence and structure yielding.

If you can build something to lift a heavy fridge and drop it on your head, you can build an anchor point for partial/full suspension. Refrigerators are heavy and it would take a very sturdy apparatus to hold the weight of one.

If you have not yet seem these threads, I would recommend you check them:

interesting, how would someone get one of these into thier room /j
I knew a man who managed to have a hydraulic press delivered to his garage, but I don't think it's something that can easily be installed in an apartment. It's a very atypical method of suicide, yet extremely fast, certain, and completely painless. Despite this, many people have a visceral fear of such machines—perhaps because of their cold, impersonal, mechanical nature. Strangely, they often end up choosing methods that are far more painful and less effective, simply because they are more common or culturally 'accepted.' The press, although definitive, doesn't belong to the usual references within the suicidal imagination. It's too radical, too silent in its technical perfection. That's why so few find the courage to venture into such an unusual and utterly certain method.

Doesn't a hydraulic press apply pressure slowly? In this case, I think it would pierce the skull rather than make it explode

I don't know if you've ever seen a video of a hydraulic press, but they usually squeeze very slowly, which means you will be in pain, albeit only for a few seconds, but in excruciating pain for the last few seconds of your life.

I would imagine it would be something like when you squeeze a watermelon or a bowling ball where it gets to a point where the machine almost fights it and then the whole thing gives and there is a pop.

Ahh I see, if you used a plate to apply pressure for example. It would still be hella painful considering micro cracks form in those cases before it blows up.

Technical Note on the Use of Hydraulic Presses:
The sensation of pain in this context depends entirely on the type of press used, the speed of the ram descent, and the area where the force is applied.

In the worst-case scenario — that is, with a slow-moving press or poorly distributed force — pain might last two or three seconds at most, but this is an extremely brief interval, insufficient to generate a structured conscious response before neurological collapse occurs.
On the other hand, there are rapid-acting, direct-application presses capable of delivering force instantaneously, resulting in immediate loss of consciousness with no perception of pain.

The image of the press shown earlier is for illustrative purposes only and does not necessarily represent the most effective or fastest model.

It's too slow.
It's been clinically observed that an estimated half of all people experience a spike in gamma brain waves, the waves associated with conscious alertness, a spike 300 times the normal range of conscious production. The final dreams at that time can reportedly be deeply horrific or deeply pleasant, and time may slow down, reportedly stretching one's experience of time so that decades or centuries pass in a single moment. But even these alarming anecdotes may not account for the human experience during the last firing of the last synapse. There may be a point at which the level of oxygenated blood dips below the point of resuscitation (no matter our tech level), but still enough to enable dreams, making the dreams unknowable to living people. I believe that your deepest psychological constitution decides if those dreams are joyful or if they're a nightmare that feels like a lifetime but only takes moments. If a person has always been insecure, paranoid, avoidant, poorly handles stress and change, or frequently recalls negative memories unprompted, these often incurable pathologies will determine how a person will experience death. And that's because they determine how a person dreams, whether the dream is drug induced or otherwise.





The worst case scenario is that you have a decades long nightmare tortured by all your deepest fears. The only contingency for this is dying a death that doesn't allow for the release of these brain waves, neurotransmitters, or any of the DPM that may cause the near death experience. The brain must be destroyed in an instant. Shotgun pellets only travel at 0.4 meters per millisecond. Nitroglycerin explodes at 7.7 meters per millisecond. Tactile stimulus takes at least 4 milliseconds just to travel to the brain. If the dynamite sticks are resting directly on the back of my neck, the brain matter will theoretically be reduced to pieces that are too small for any consciousness or hopefully even perception of pain before the brain even realizes the imminence of death. I learned from a lengthy explosives safety manual that some kind of shrapnel in the nitroglycerin like firearm ammo will make the explosion significantly more deadly, as will detonating it in an enclosed space.

Hmmm.... I will probably get hated for this but.. I'm at almost a 50/ 50 with the comments on here. ( solely the fridge thing, idk about the press ... because that's not even what the OP is talking or even asking about)

Wtfe?.. regardless... Of course a fridge to your dome Could kill you.. Sure, it is Entirely Possible if everything lines up and happens in the worst way imaginable.. BUT.. Probable? I don't believe so. Manyy many different ways this thing could play out to where you survive and are in a Much different Nightmare than you could think of. Not something I would Ever recommend or risk myself. Please don't do this.

Main point being.... People die of Less everyday... (As I type this sadly ) Somewhere around the world .. Mostly ya know.. slips, trips, and falls.. With head trauma, TBIs, concussion and whatnot. It's Possible. But to Absolutely discredit and shame saying " You will survive and it Will Not work flatout " Doesn't make any God Damn sense.

OP.. Please don't do it, you Very well Might regret it.

I have a Question. How did that one guy who ctb this way have it make a hole in his head, rather than crush/explode his whole skull? U can look it up if u havent seen it… thanks in advance bc I'm considering this
