Smash Boy Report post Posted August 20, 2012 What a way to go. I always wonder if there is that split second or in this case seconds where you regret your decision just before you land. I've heard the few Golden Gate bridge survivors have all said they regret it the second they jump. I am going to find that movie and watch it again.

RyanB Report post Posted August 20, 2012 Suicide is still a bullshit act. I bet they never got a chance to say goodbye Wouldn't you want to spend as much time as possible with the people you love, instead of knowingly making them grieve without the chance to say goodbye? It's a cowardly thing to do. I have a special disdain for it because my cousins father killed himself, but not before he sent a picture text to him with a rope around his neck, later leading my cousin to kill himself the same way. We do have a odd outlook on things though. We say that someone killing themselves is cowardly (and I whole heartedly agree), but then when someone goes on a killing spree and then kills themself, we ask "why couldn't he have just killed himself?". I am just as guilty of this as anyone else, but it puts a different perspective on the situation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
