Foresthill Bridge Jumping

[LakeMungoGirl]

I'm looking to CTB soon, and my best current option seems to be jumping from Foresthill Bridge in Auburn, CA.

It's the tallest bridge in California, standing at 730-feet measured from deck height, and it's surrounded a six-foot suicide prevention barrier. Since it's close to my house, I'm planning on getting a ride there in the evening (Hard to say the exact date, but I can feel myself getting closer and closer to CTB every day. It might even be within the year.) and using a step-ladder to scale the barrier.

I understand SI is tough to overcome, but I don't have alcohol or drugs, and I don't know where I could get any, so if anyone has any advice on how I might acquire some I'd be grateful. What is the general consensus on jumping in this forum? Will 700+ feet be enough to kill me? I truly don't know any other way. Need advice.

Yes 700+ ft WILL kill you (just go head first to make sure you are not the 1 in a million)

For alcohol, you can buy ethanol for chemical purposes without any id (I'm 18 and got 95% pure ethanol no id lmao) just dilute it into a safe mix if you want to use it to slow your SI
(I can give exact numbers for certain values if you want)

On the other hand you could brew your alcohol, and there are plenty of guides on how to do that.

I'll do my best, lol

This is great advice, thank you. I didn't even consider that an option. And yes. I would love to know the exact values.
