19 stories sounds like enough although why are you choosing this method if I may ask? I've thought about it but I always thought it would be much more painful than hanging or other things, also there's someone on social media who got PARALYZED from a jumping attempt, and obviously still survived and life's even worse after that :(. That scares me. If jumping isn't painful someone let me know, maybe I'll make a post about it, it seems mentally easier than other methods even if it's more painful, all you have to do is work up the courage to jump instead of a million steps and pills, once you jump there's no turning back. That's it.
I'm between this or hanging, both work as long as I die, hanging seems a bit harder to get right if you aim for partial but im still open to it. What I like about jumping is that, if you jump from a high enough point theres no turning back, there's no one that can help you, it's the true end of everything
Maybe, bit "Miracles" happens sometimes and also most survivor reported they regret it as soon as they enter free fall
That's what I thought but after hearing people can survive jumping I have much less faith in it. I hope you find peace and don't end up injured or worse, paralyzed for the rest of your life like that person :(.
If you fall from 150 feet or higher there's a 99.99999% chance you will die.
How bad will it hurt though? Also I suck at imagining things like 150 feet I don't have a relative idea of how tall that is
I guess the fall would be high enough for you to lose consciousness at the moment of impact
See this sounds legit but if this was really true, if you jump from this high and lose consciousness immediately it won't hurt, wouldn't everyone here just find a place to jump? If it was that easy? There must be a catch
Jumping is just quite scary and it's hard to find a high enough spot that's accessible
not everyone wants to go out that way, or has access to high buildings. working up the nerve to jump takes a lot of guts too.
Take this with a grain of salt but the Wikipedia article says that jumping is the most common suicide method in Hong Kong (52.1% of all cases in 2006—who knows what it is in 2026) so it really depends on what is easily accessible to citizens.
I still find it hard to believe it wouldn't hurt if you jump from high enough I just can't wrap my head around that.
It would hurt for an instant but most likely the pain receptors wouldn't register the pain in time before you died. The worst part would be the 5 second jump. Time would stand still. But there may be a feeling of relief. I50 feet is about 12 stories up, I think. The bridge I want to jump from is stunning. I would want no one to find me below (the body would be liquified) so I would have to figure out how to contact paramedics. That would mean needing cell reception. I wish I wasn't petrified of heights.
It would hurt for an instant but most likely the pain receptors wouldn't register the pain in time before you died. The worst part would be the 5 second jump. And the petrifying fear of heights.
I'm so sorry you lost your son this way. He likely died before the pain receptors reached his body that he was in pain. It was instant. I find comfort in near death experiences of people who attempted suicide but came back. they said they were meet with an unconditional loving energy. They felt like that had gone "home".
There are bridges that are in spectacular scenery in the San Francisco Bay Area. Ground below, not water.
you would die before the pain receptors hit your brain. it would not be pretty either. and it would upset a lot of people if they saw what was left of your body. if i go this route, i will jump off a 250 foot bridge onto land at night. i would alert the authorities right before so they could deal with my remains before anyone finds it. if i call them, then i must go through with it because the last thing i want is to be taken into a mental hospital. good god no. i'm not mentally ill. i just can't sleep. so, getting up on the wall along the bridge would be terrifying. The 5 to 7 second fall might feel freeing. But it might be the longest 5 to 7 seconds of my life.
I don't think you're lying but I still just can't trust a 250 ft drop to be painless and for your brain to not even process it quick enough before death, it sounds too good to be true. I'm a little jaded since obviously life has let everyone here down so it's hard to trust things that sound good. I understand how you'd alert the authorities, but I'd still be afraid they'd show up quicker than you can jump. And be scared of getting locked away but I am just a paranoid person. I also wouldn't want random strangers just trying to take a walk see a corpse, so in that case I guess I'd want to alert the authorities too but like I said I'd be too afraid of what happens after. Of hearing the sirens, it would be too stressful to even jump I'd get so scared. Also I'm too much of a coward to tell the authorities if I was about to commit suicide. Takes a lot of guts. WAIT I HAVE ANOTHER THING TO BACK UP MY PARANOIA, you'd only call them so they can deal with your remains, right? But to do that they'd have to know where you plan to jump, and for some reason I think that short conversation is enough time for them to stop you if you don't jump quick enough or if they somehow catch you falling. I'm surprised whatever bridge you're talking about doesn't have the anti-suicide net.
