What's the best place to jump off in Europe? I want it to be an instant death with no way I could possibly fuck it up and end up a vegetable.
Are you willing to hike or travel? If so, Preikestolen cliff in Norway. It height 1,982 feet tall (that pass terminal velocity), since terminal velocity is about 1,500 feet. You can't drop any faster than that.
The thing is it hard to land on the ocean below, so high chances you will land on the rocks below half way down. Half way of 2,000 feet is 1,000 feet. That is enough to kill, especially you land on rocks.
Here you go, pic of Preikestolen cliff.

No, not if you hit rocks surface below.
You need something high, I wouldn't even jump unless it darn close to terminal velocity. So a location like Beachy Head with 500 feet drop, pfffffff! No. I need something 4x times that.
Aim for the highest place you can get to. Remember you only have ONE chance to CTB. Rather you succeed and die, or else you will paralyze all four limps for the rest of your life. Who the heck want that?

I know you say Europe. But if you can travel, go to China, there tons of high bridges in China.
This bridge (in China) it 2,000 feet height too. No, don't jump the side of the bridge, jump right at the middle, BAM, straight down, all over.

I'm not in Europe or China but they are beautiful places to CTB.

I would definitely prefer Preikestolen. Seems like such a nice place to spend the last time but I'm still afraid that I might land on a ledge or something and fail.No, not if you hit rocks surface below.

That's the big issue with cliffs. You just have to look very carefully and precise for your spot. Bring a pair of binoculars with you. There is a kind of rangefinder. Maybe it will help to measure the distance if you're unsure..?
Another thing is to practice with jumping in a swimming pool or on trampoline (not on head).

Maybe there are better places then. Cause I have the feeling that if there's even the slightest possibility to screw up, I will screw up.

Yeah, but sadly it applies almost everywhere. But take a look in wiki on their list of places.
Already read the wiki page before asking, just thought maybe someone here has a good hint.
Technically, I don't even want to die. I just don't want to be in pain ever again. And the only way to make sure of that is to die.

Seems a little overkill to me
Im reasonably sure that anything over 35 - 40 meters to hard ground will kill me, especially if I land headfirst.
Beautiful locations tho

I agree with that. What if you don't land on head? Can't take no risk surviving..
Dont know in Europe i would like to know it, in US, the best place for CTB jumping is the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, it has a looong history of suicide and the success rate of 90%, i work often with physics, here i am going to explain HOW those jump attempt fail.
As told before in the top reply, reaching the terminal velocity is mandatory for comply, here the reason for not reaching the necessary speed for ctb:
1) Windy days, never decide to ctb in a windy day, the wind movement is dynamic, is goes forward, backward, up and down.. and any object fronting the force of wind may slow down it's fall, block the terminal velocity even froating to a different target that may just lead to serious injury instead of death.
2) Never wear big, voluminous, large or wide clothes.. the may slow down the fall and block the reach of the terminal velocity. I understand that jumping naked may not give a good effect, in winter also, may render the fall extremely painful, instead the fall sensation is pleasant and releasing the adrenaline before and while falling, give excitation and feeling of strongness. So, wearing something enough light and quite adherent is the best choice.
3) After jumping, it is difficult to concentrate on position and movements, expecially if someone is not trained by some parachute course, ANYWAY.. for what is possible, during the fall, would be needed to keep the arms tight to the hips, and both the legs tight togheter. In the perfect jump, someone or yourself should tie your legs and your arms to your hips, in this position, all the wind flows on the side of the body that will reach the terminal velocity with at least 30% more speed, possibly as short as 250ft or 70 meters.
4) During the fall, concentrate to not take any "ball" shape or to bend your body in a curve, this will create some moderate shock absorbing effect, that may lead to a fail, expecially if terminal velocity has not been reached.
If all this is followed and the place is enough high to reach terminal velocity, success rate is around 99%.
Cliffs are not recommended, because to many variables and chance to hit rocks and bounce here and there, getting some painful and failure risky event.
Choose a streigh fall in the highest possible place, on a plane surface, ground, marble, cement, sand or WATER, they are absolutely indifferent.. at terminal speed, both ground, water or sand have the same consistance of concrete.

So many factors to consider, @dominodux .. And yet many people thinks it is so easy.
There's a good chance bleeding to death if the impact doesn't work. A very painful way.

@MainlƦnder Nice, but do you know a bridge/place in Germany/CH/Fr/A
which is not a Highway*, everything higher 45m on solid ground is ok.
*I prefere a place without a empty ghost-car on the motorway

Wouldn't the body just kind off drop unconscious if it is under unbearable amounts of pain?

I'm surprised this one is high enough, especially if you're planning on landing in the Connecticut River. Its also an ugly ass bridge, a rusted out hulk painted a shade of vomit green where the rust doesn't peek through. Might get used because it is a college town (Wesleyan Univesity) as much as any other reason.

Golden Gate bridge already have net all around, and security around watching. So No, not recommend, unless you want to end up in psych ward. Please even with no net, I still would not recommend Golden Gate, due to it only 220 feet clearance below. To me, that is ridiculously short in height. I need something 5x that or even 10x that. Do you want instant death? Or do you want to lay in pain?
You only get ONE chance of CTB, pick your location well, unless you want to end up paralyze all four limps. Or not death but laying in there in a world of pain before you bleed out.
In order to get instant death, seriously you need something 1,000 feet to 2,000 feet.
To me the best place to jump would be a 100s stories building, like the World Trade Center. You plunge straight down to concrete, just chose a spot there no cars parking below.
But with buildings it hard nowadays, good luck with try to break the windows glass.
Overkill is a good thing, you talking about your LIFE here, chances you paralyze all four limps if not high enough.
OP. I will advice you, if the place is not over 1,000+ feet, DON'T do it. Not worth the risk of the outcome what will happen to your body and a lifetime of pain if you fail.

Maybe that bridge in China is a good way after all. Nothing can go wrong there, right? Well, I'll need to see how I'll get there.
If you in Europe, no need go far as China. I believe Ms. @intheend say there another cliff in Norway that is even higher than Preikestolen. Trolltungga right? Ms. intheend?
How about this one Ms. intheend
Kjeragbolten? It a rock balance two cliffs. I think if jump off this rock, I will hit water?
btw, I laugh at whoever say 'if you want to CTB, you already go do it'. LOL, I'm sorry I'm not dumb nor wreckless. I'm not dumb to risk paralyze all of my four limps and still be alive. Unless I find a location where I'm sure it will lead to my death, I won't go jump. I'm the one that if fail will lay in bed paralyze here, not you. so what do you know about overkill or not, lol.

Can I know what country in Europe you from? Like UK? Germany? If you don't mind me asking. The reason why I ask is because you might want to find something in your country, preferably a bridge. Since you say you never hike before, you go between those rocks chances are you might slip and fall to your death on the way up the cliff. You will die, it just that you might not die right away but conscious and lay in pain until you pass out (if you slip during climb the cliff, and hit something below that not high enough).

@toomuchgrief They write in the news:
"The mountain Kjerag is located in Forsand municipality, where at the highest you get an almost 1000 meters vertical fall into the fjord. In a ravine just west of the plateau there is the spectacular Kjeragbolt, a large, wedged boulder in a several hundred meter deep crack in the mountains."

There this bridge here in Germany. I think every year they have like a walking festival in November month. TONS of people walking on the bridge, so if you just suddenly jump off, just do it quick, come early, before alot of people get there. Here is the Youtube, I don't know Germany language, but perhaps you can read it and know about this festival thing.
