CTB this weekend

Looking to CTB this weekend.

My two methods were hanging or jumping, I'm leaning towards jumping, would 84ft above concrete be enough?

Jumping off a high building | Lost All Hope: The web's leading suicide resource

Don't commit suicide without reading this site! Lost All Hope has information on everything from drugs and drop hanging to suicide statistics.

I don't think so, this article states 150ft onto land would be a 95% chance of death, halfing would take that at least under 30% as a guess (I'd assume the extra 65ft would increase the speed and impact enough to increase the percentage dramatically.

Thanks, it's quite a popular spot for jumpers and all articles I've read suggest success.
Might re look!

You do not die on impact when jumping. It can take several minutes for your body to die. Sometimes 45 minutes or more. You will have to die from shock, broken bones, broken organs, broken lungs (suffocation), nerve damage, bleeding, and head injury. Even a long fall will leave you in pain until you die from your inflicted wounds. Some people have even survived parachute failure. Just because the camera stops rolling after the person in the video hits the ground doesn't mean they are dead yet. The body swells and the person is in pain for a long time.

Or maybe coz it leaves you blind after a failed attempt.

Sounds better than the life I've got. At least there's an end to it in your scenario.

Right but the idea is usually quick AND painless not full of pain for however long until you die from your wounds.
