For those who have chosen jumping or considering it, why and where would you do it?

[MicropBaldCurrycel]

are you not afraid?

What about the thought of doing it in public where people will hear you fall and see your body?

What about the chance you may not die and just become broken bones and suffer more for life?


Or maybe u hit something on the way down that cushions your blow....

I am not discouraging you but i say this because im strongly considering it now out of necessity ( no other methods and getting desperate) .

So i want to discuss it with my fellow jumpers/potential jumpers.

 

[NearlyIrrelevantCake]

I'd advise people to not list specific locations and/or times they want to jump. In the past, users who did that were met by police at the time/location they had posted about and were sectioned/hospitalized.

no i didnt mean like that sorry!

i meant where as in a bridge or high building or mountain range or cliff etc.

sorry for the misunderstanding.

 

[Forever Sleep]

I have considered it- mostly because I suppose it is one of the most available means.

There is a bridge near me over water that people have been both successful and unsuccessful jumping from.

I don't think I would do it though- because of the failed attempts and even the successful ones are sometimes down to broken bones and drowning. I'm a wimp and I need more convincing that it will work to do it.

Also, I watched that documentary 'The Bridge' and felt bad for the people who witness it and have to recover the bodies.

Sad part is, if we go through with it by whichever means, some poor sod is going to have to deal with our remains. Would really prefer it to be someone expecting it- like in a clinic but I suppose law enforcement is the next best thing.

 

[flickout]

I thought of this and will if I have to, but I really want to die at home. I am kind of concerned with not dying if I jump, I do not want to be disabled.

 

[WorthlessTrash]

Why would i pick it? If i am unable to go through with N or SN.

Where would i pick it? I dont know. No where accessible that has a great height :(

 

[Achlys]

Jumping isn't my preferred method, but I have access to a 350-foot-tall bridge that I could potentially use.

 

[lobster salad]

despite being on a site where most people prefer a peaceful way to die, I choose jumping.

I hope my body leaves a big bloody mess beside the governments' flagship 155ft tall apartments in the country. My country has denied all chance of peaceful suicide with strict drug bans and I have a complicated story of having the N chemical in my hands.

scared? I am done, my brain can barely think properly at all. I don't want to care about anything. This method will be fast, 3 seconds and no preperation other than transportation to location. The more you think and hesitate the more you suffer and stay on this planet, that is how i see it. If it's too scary on day one I will try day 2 and 3 and 4.

As for the public, as if anyone cares. fuck them

The height I chose, the chance of survival is smaller than a fraction. I don't consider living after the attempt, it is not worth thinking for me.

I am now staying to finish erasing my presence at home, tochka

 

[Nlis2244]

I plan to do it in an isolated bridge I know from the internet. The thought of not dying is terrifying but the place is so high that the chances should be almost non existent. That's the main reason that I choose this method. There is the chance of something cushioning the impact, but I should be able to see it and avoid it. As long as I manage to get there it will be the perfect place. The problem will be getting there, it will be a pain. I would prefer to just have a gun.

 

[motel rooms]

I'd jump from a secluded spot in the mountains.

 

[nopride86]

I'm thinking that jumping is all I have left, but even that I can't seem to do because there are no buildings tall enough in my city (and if there were, they wouldn't be publicly accessible). The bridge here is a joke too, I've seen videos of people cliff diving for fun from a taller point than this lame excuse for a bridge.

But let's just say a good height and location were available - tall enough to kill on impact without risk of just bodily injury or suffering - I'd still have to do it in broad daylight. I'd have a 7 hour window one day per month to get done. I'd probably do it sober since I haven't drank in years and I have no access to drugs or medication, but maybe I'd take one shot of whiskey for old time's sake.

I think my SI wouldn't be so strong with jumping because once I'm off the ledge there's no going back anyway. But that's just in theory.

It really depends on weird stuff like the wind. The times I got closer to jumping off the edge there was very little wind, when it was super windy weirdly I was super concerned about being blown off even though I wanted to jump. Survival instinct is strange

 

[MellowAvenue]

Last time I was serious about an attempt jumping was considered. Problem was that I was unsure the nearest bridge was high enough and it also was over a highway, not a body of water. Too many risks, potential to hurt others, so couldn't do it.

I'd advise people to not list specific locations and/or times they want to jump. In the past, users who did that were met by police at the time/location they had posted about and were sectioned/hospitalized.

This is definitely true. I'm pretty sure they occasionally have police go out to look for potential jumpers as well. When I was scouting the bridge I mentioned before trying to determine if it felt right, an officer did come over and talked to me as I was walking home, asking if I was alright, what I was doing, etc. He let me go but definitely seemed suspicious of me. In the interest of fairness though I guess it's just as likely he just happened to see me and was doing his due diligence.

 

[ornitier199]

No I am not. The creek bridge is just too far from where I am. Too far to walk, bus doesn't get close enough and I'm too weak to walk.
The creek bridge was my definitive method because of its 100% success. It's very deep pit beneath.

I'd advise people to not list specific locations and/or times they want to jump. In the past, users who did that were met by police at the time/location they had posted about and were sectioned/hospitalized.

So they're lingering here too? Not surprised.

 

[Someone123]

I'f prefer over 220 feet into the water- like to Golden Gate Bridge- since drowning is a backup plan, and this has a 99% success rate. I wouldn't try it at the Golden Gate Bridge, though, since there is so much security patrolling, unless I li8ved in the area and could scout it out over multiple occasions to see if it seems feasible, but don't act suspicious. There are other bridges that high over water, but most people are many hours away from them, so most people settle on other methods.

Do jumpers get fucked over by the wind often? My bridge is really windy

 

[Someone123]

That can be risky if the wind can blow you into something that could break your fall- people often con't ctb if they hit a tree or a car or anything that can break their fall.

 

[WorthlessTrash]

I'm leaning towards jumping as my new method. It will be a symbolic message. Destroying the very body I hate that is causing me to want to die. Ironic, right?

 

[☆AwaitingEntropy☆]

I've considered jumping. There is a bridge about 4 - 6 hrs from where I live that's higher up than a few popular hotspots, so I know my chances of survival would be slim to none.

But, for me it's very inconvenient to get to, since I don't have a car. What should only be a few hrs drive turns into a day or two trip by public transport, so that's not ideal. And I haven't been to many high places, so for all I know, I'm scared of heights. Bad time to find that out, haha.

I do hope to visit it someday, even if just as a vacation. And if the view and feel is nice, maybe it will even become my method of choice at some point.

height and what you will fall onto are the main factors - if you have money and time, my paramotor method would be effective - buy a used paramotor for 2k, get short course of lessons for 1k, fly up to 10,000ft, jump out over concrete or grass, preferably whilst drunk and high on lovely drugs that make you feel less afraid - you can launch these things from anywhere on your own - you could launch it sober and start drinking and drugging once you're in the air, with various pockets to put stuff in - if I lived alone so I could do all this without anyone asking me what the fuck I'm doing, I'd probably be doing this, but my family would know there's something weird going on...

 

[xo777]

I'm terrified of jumping but I know in the moment I may be better of doing something quick like jumping rather than gagging the N down.
I am leaning towards N more because I feel for the ones who will have to see my body that's not fair I don't want to hurt or traumatize anyone
Actually I don't know if i'm terrified, I don't think I am. The bridge near me is perfect and lonely enough for no police to patrol

thats actually a great idea ,also kinda fun way to die.

thats understandable it is a scary method with high chance of failure.
I wish i had N as id take that over jumping but im so deseperate so i need to do something fast .

It's hard work, but so effective you could call it 100% guaranteed - if 100 people tried it in a row from 10,000ft, they would all die - if you tried it 5000 times, maybe 1 person would fall into a truck carrying feather pillows and survive, but probably not!

 

[savoytruffle]

I'm terrified of heights but would choose it as a last resort if SN doesn't reach me, only if it's jumping in water though

Interesting idea, but if you try to jump from that high over concrete or grass you could hit a tree or a car and break the fall just right so that you survive- others have from very high heights. If you jump over open water it will shatter you like hitting concrete and nothing will break your fall and in case you survive the impact, very unlikely, you7 will drown.

 

[thejumper]

I would do it while intoxicated. Why? Because it is much more accessible where I live. The only thing I need to overcome is my fear of heights, for which I've been practising by getting to rooftops and staring down for half an hour or so. Though I probably won't use this method for CTB.

the anomalies who died from great heights always had something more to their story - they were never drop, splat survive

It depends on how they land a lot, in my opinion over water gives a good backup plan. If you jump from 10,000 feet then due to wind you could end up landing on a tree or something else that would break the fall, from that height you won't go straight down, you could easily move a long distance in any direction based on wind- you don't know what you would land on that could break the fall.

yeah i just read a story of a guy surviving a 13 storey jump attempt.
His bones were broken and hes been in hospital 6 months.
I think il rule this method out.

I think it can be a good method in the right situation- at the golden gate bridge the success rate is 99%, but some die by drowning. Of course that location has too much security- single people are watched closely and quickly surrounded if they look sad or distractted or whatever. There are some locations that are better but are too far out of the way for most people. Personally I won't use this method, but if I did I would want to be over water or from wele over 200 feet where nothing could break the fall.
