Everyone who profanes it shall be put to death" -Exodus 31:14 "for six days shall work be done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of solemn rest, holy to the Lord. whoever does any work on the Sabbath shall be put to death" -Exodus 31:15 . okay, now let's be serious. 001 part 1 partial suspension hanging, preceded by drinking... yourself unconscious. based on the results from my last attempt, 1 bottle of vodka (or a bit more), flushed down as quickly as possible, within a timespan of a few mins (one doesn't need to empty the bottle in one take, but one should not linger too long either) will make you pass out. so, if one is sitting upright and has a cord or cable or whatever wrapped around one's neck, and the other end fixed onto some spot above, maybe on a hook one screwed into the ceiling a while ago, with a total length just about not long enough to let you bend forward anymore (or into any other direction), it means... you'd asphyxiate yourself the moment you drop off and your upper body (at least by a few centimeters) sinks down. according to Geo Stone's "suicide and attempted suicide" no more than 15 kg pulling on your ligature are needed to close your trachea and to cut you off from oxygen. part 2 overcoming the fear of heights the average height of an apartement is 2.5m (hollow space) + a 16-30cm thick ceiling. assuming it's 2.7m in total, then, when you'd be standing on the 002 18th floor you'd be 45.9m above ground level. based on Geo Stone's investigation. a 150 feet (= 46 meters) fall onto the ground, or a 250 feet (= 76 meters) fall onto water, will almost certainly lead to death. if there aren't any buildings or bridges tall enough where you live, one can travel abroad. i was thinking of the Yangtze river bridge in Nanjing (China), a famous suicide spot. It does not provide a 76 meters fall, but, it's proven itself to be safe investment. If the impact with the river won't kill you, you'll drown instead. China is a country one could potentially aquire some nice potentially lethal drugs from. also nembutal and cyanide. i thought about going to Nanjing, trying to get hold of sth like that, and if it fails, jumping off that bridge as a last resort. as far as leaps of faith onto solid ground are concerned, you'll probably also die from a fall from a bit below the ideal of 46m. maybe take a lethal dose of some poison beforehand, as a security measure. South Korea, 2013... "a 39-year-old man jumped to his death from the top of an 11 story building in the southeastern port city of Busan. In addition to killing himself, the suicide jumper landed on a little girl who was standing outside of the apartment building with her parents. the man died immediately from the fall. the little girl suffered broken bones and brain damage and died shortly after the incident at the hospital. the little girl's parents were not harmed in the fall." -kare11 news, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aSLket0pwQw the top of a 11 story building, that's equivalent to the 12th floor, or to a height of around 29.7m. As the example above shows, you should be careful not to hit anyone, or else there will be 2 casualties. 003 part 3 drinking, preceded by drinking... anything with methanol as a special ingredient in it. alcohol starts to work prior to methanol, assuming you'll consume both, you will first get drunk as expected, and then, a few hours later, lose consciousness due to the methanol intoxication, sounds like a pleasant way to go, and many have already taken this path, although often unintentionally. But there's a catch. „if as little as 10 mL of pure methanol is ingested, for example, it can break down into formic acid, which can cause permanent blindness by destruction of the optic nerve, and 30 mL is potentially fatal,[21] although the median lethal dose is typically 100 mL“ -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol „indeed, small amounts of ingested methanol are sufficient to produce acute destruction of parts of the central nervous system leading to permanent neurological dysfunction and irreversible blindness“ -http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1771266/ this means, it's probably a good idea to learn the braille alphabet before your methanol suicide attempt. because if you survive, you might be blind afterwards. part 4 suicide by snake bite getting hold of a snake should be easier than to aquire a gun is, in most countries. Cleopatra killed herself by inducing an asp (probably the Egyptian cobra in her case, there's some debate about this and in general about her death's circumstances) to bite her. let's use her as a rolemodel. "the venom [of the Egyptian cobra] affects the nervous system, stopping the nerve signals from being transmitted to the muscles and at later stages stopping 004 those transmitted to the heart and lungs as well, causing death due to complete respiratory failure in just 10 minutes" -http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Egyptian_cobra the European asp sadly doesn't seem to promise a quick and secure death. but 4 months ago, in France, someone (a German) actually managed to die (unintentionally) via cardiac arrest induced by his pet aspis viper -http://www.welt.de/vermischtes/kurioses/article117268527/Schlangen-Experte-stirbt-waehrend-Show- durch-Biss.htm. he had the fortune of having been bitten several times. based on what i've gathered online, it appears as though several bites are indeed needed. one isn't toxic enough. if you happen to live in the USA or Mexico, a mojave rattlesnake envenomation leads to respiratory failure aswell. since apparently the bite of this species "is usually not as painful as other rattlesnake bites." but "is considered ten times more toxic" -http://www.blueplanetbiomes.org/mojave_rattlesnake.htm it might come relatively close to a peaceful death.
