Jumping was my third method of choice after N and SN were eliminated. So I did a lot of reading on it.
Evelyn McHale was 23 years old when she jumped from the 86th floor of the Empire State Building in New York in 1947. A college student took a photo of her dead body on top of a crushed car. Media called it "the most beautiful suicide ever."
Kevin Hines was 19 when he jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge into the ocean in San Francisco in September 2000. That's a 220 foot plunge. But he survived. There's this story that a sea lion kept him afloat until rescuers got there. But I think it's a BS story because 1) he's a millionaire "anti-suicide" attention w*o*e today and 2) he could have released pictures of the sea lion he allegedly has, but chose not to release them. Why not since you crave attention today?
The Evelyn McHale suicide made me think I could jump and my body wouldn't splatter everywhere, so that was my plan. But the only places I could jump would have been into water. If you can survive 220 feet, I don't even want to try that. Reports are that Hines broke his back, dislocated his elbows upon impact, and survived a one in a million jump because his spinal cord was like a millimeter from being cut by the broken vertebra.
Moral of the story: I only wanted to jump if i could land on hard surface and without an audience. I didn't and don't have access to that, and I'd probably be too scared to do it anyway. And I don't want to survive a water jump. So I changed methods.
