Instant death?

[Nina1]

Please tell me that if I jump off a 140 foot bridge onto concrete I won't feel a thing. Surely I will die instantly and there will be a feast on the other side with the most delicious food and wine. We will celebrate my arrival and dance the night away to angelic music right?

 

[woknows]

I guess it depends on how you land. Headfirst, maybe you do not feel a thing. You land on your legs, not sure if you would not lie in pain for some time before finally passing on.

This does not sound like a good idea. It could make things so much worse.

You don't think I would die?

You don't think I would die?

Its not a certainty. People have survived falls from greater heights. Even if fatal - it may not be immediately so.

Personally - the thought of lying on concrete with multiple broken bones, in terrific pain, gasping for breath for a few or several minutes - is not very appealing.

You don't think I would die?

There's no guarantee. Some people have fallen thousands of feet and still survived (with a lot of broken body parts and usually in a coma).

The distance doesn't matter; it's the speed at which you hit. If you splay your body out like a skydiver, you'll drastically slow your speed. If you tuck in your arms and legs like a diver, you'll go much faster.

The problem is there's almost no cases of someone falling from that height and someone at the bottom to say "On a scale of 1-10, what would your rate your pain level as right now?" So while it will almost certainly be fatal, it's hard to say how it will feel.

That being said, watching the suicides from New York on 9/11, it looks like they die instantaneously.

Anyone hitting their head on concrete that falls the universal way will surly be unconscious instantly if not dead was my assumption.

Don't try to freak others out because you are scared

 

[Sakura94]

140 foot bridge, yes, do you think you would find one?

 

[Nina1]

Thank you Victoria yes one hour from home. The only issue is traffic and they patrol at night. I have been trying, but not only SI, but the traffic and police freak you out ugh. I even pulled over at night and planned to swiftly throw myself off and an officer instantly stopped me. I told him I was car sick and needed to pull over and he let me go. If I go again it needs to be definite because now they have my information

People here just want to say that it's risky, and I agree with them, take their opinion into account

If you're talking about a bridge over traffic, this is not a good idea.

The person who finds you, especially in the dark, will most likely be the person that hits you/your body on the roadway.

This person is likely to suffer serious trauma after looking at your broken body. He or she will be questioned by the police, as they are the only living person present.

We really encourage people not to involve any innocent person in their ctb plans, and I encourage you to rethink your plan if you are thinking of jumping into traffic.

Thank you for your concern. I don't want to involve any innocent people and will not jump into direct traffic. Also hoping an officer finds me after leaving my hazards on.

No matter what form of suicide I choose. An innocent person is going to find my body. It's unfortunate and I wish there were another way

You seem to have a sense of humor, so:

No one on earth could feel like this
I'm thrown and overblown with bliss
There must be an angel
Playing with my heart

I must be hallucinating
Watching angels celebrating
Could this be reactivating
All my senses dislocating?

Haha this is epic. Thanks for the laugh. Hope I also get as good a singer as her at my party

I'm surprised because I honestly thought this was the best way.
What is risky in your opinion

 

[thisplaceisaprison]

My friend passed out high in the bathroom and hit his head on the sink and died - but that's a probably really rare occurrence. I'd say this is a terrible idea

 

[Nina1]

This is a very popular bridge for suicide. Every person has died that jumped. 30 people. It's a great idea babe

Sounds really short and terrifying to me…I would need a way higher jump if I were gonna do that.
