What about making some kind of bomb and you could detonate at a remote location where no possibility of anyone else being injured and blow yourself up. A bomb that would blow you to smithereens. Nothing even left that could be identified. I also thought of this idea but probably not practical. What if you stuffed a microwave with gunpowder and turned it on high? Would that be an effective bomb? Even if it was it would be hard to find a place to do it cuz you'd need electric outlet somewhere where nobody else is going to be there. Anyone know anything about bombs?

That's the way how islamistic suicide bombers think they end up in paradise. But they're not doing it in a remote location.

Probably a good and quick method if one can pull the trigger to make the TNT around the body explode.

Btw. what about the hairdryer and bathtub method? Not that I'm considering this method, I don't have a bathtub anyway, but I'm surprised that the method has never been discussed since I've been here.

you can get a power generator for outdoor event to use the microwave

Modern installations have FI circuit breakers. That's probably not gonna work. You would need to be grounded but again dying via power isn't very nice. Read about executions on the electric chair.

I know nothing, but I assume they operate off a battery rather than having to plug anything in. So there'd be no need for remote detonation, you. could just be in its vicinity.

I was thinking more along the line of microwave blowing up and killed by shrapnel from explosion. I just don't know if it would work

If you live in America you're already on watch list. Ed Snowden told us all about it. We're all being surveilled all the time.

I realize you're daydreaming here, but let's be realistic. There's no "safe" way to make and transport a bomb. It would be up there with the most selfish and unethical suicide methods imaginable.

You don't want to be killed by shrapnel! Look at the Ukraine conflict, soldiers have been able to survive hours/days even after a direct hit from a drone/grenade charge. You are essentially immobilized and die slowly depending on the kind of trauma the shrapnel creates.

You would absolutely want to be killed by the concussion force of the explosive, essentially obliterate you or the vital body parts. That would require something a lot more destructive than a microwave would ever create, something like a pipe bomb or tnt for demolition purposes.

Yeah... That sounds like an awful idea.
Not from the explosion part, but the legal aspect.
You'd probably spend a decade + in jail if your caught making an IED.
Even if you are making it to kill yourself in the middle of nowhere, you think the cops are going to believe that, and not that your trying to kill other people with it?

Really 10 years for just having a bomb? How much time would you think if I had unregistered gun?

Unless you've been actually trained to make, store and transport explosive materials, then I'd strongly advise against that method - the probability that you'll do something wrong and blow yourself up at home is just too high.

Also, while looking up on the internet how to make explosives might be the easy part, how would you actually know that the recipe is legit and isn't made by someone who wanted to make potential suicide bomber unsubscribe from life before trying to do any harm to anyone else?

All that seems unlikely but the probability u lose body parts but remain breathing is high

The problem with this is that if you got caught making it the authorities would probably send you down as a terrorist

A problem with explosives is that they sometimes explode at the wrong time. Apart from the inconvenience, that could injure or kill someone else.
I definitely would not recommend this method.
I do know enough chemistry to be able to make stuff that would blow up - and so does anyone who has ever studied much chemistry - but I'm not going to share that information in a public forum.

Getting enough gunpowder to fill a microwave is actually difficult in most areas. The microwave would also, in and of itself, not ignite the powder. The explosive nature of modern gunpowder is a factor of compression, and concussive blast must be directed to be useful. While certainly a romantic idea, there are easier ways, as evidenced by many posts on this site. Best of luck on your journey.
See below Youtube link, simply for a visual. It's from the show Mythbusters, which is, quite frankly, a transcendant show, well worth watching. Enjoy.

Most places in the US it's perfectly legal to own a gun that is not registered to you.

Yup. The ATF is probably about to break into his house and shoot his dog just for talking about it

I'm surprised about unregistered firearm could be legal. As for ATF breaking into house and shooting dog. That can't happen. I don't have a house or a dog.
