Discussion Is 30m/100ft high enough

[d e a d]

There's a tempting tower nearby, it's 30m high (about 100 ft) with concrete on the ground. I know there's always a survival chance but I'm willing to take it if it's low enough.

The odds of not surviving that are about 90%, but of course there are many different factors such as where your body impacts the ground. And since the ground is concrete that should increase your odds quite a bit as well.

I would NOT recommend dying this way, your last moments will be extremely terrifying. Even if you don't think they will be. If you do, make sure you're unconscious first.

Not trying to put words in your mouth, but did you mean to say that the odds of "not surviving" are about 90%????????

Yes, my bad.

Yes, my bad.

Still, 30 m is not high enough to safely avoid lifelong vegetation, with an itch on your nose you can't scratch, whilst possibly being aware of your Mum crying by your bedside every evening - try harder and find somewhere higher, for fuck sake! Get that 90% up to 99.9%, so that only a miracle could save you! You could try my paramotor method listed on here somewhere - buy a paramotor for 3K, fly up to a maximum of 18,000ft, jump out!

 

[locked*n*loaded]

Yes, my bad.

Still, I agree with you that 90% is not good enough. In other methods that are even less likely to result in death, assuming jumping from this height is actually 90%, At least in those methods you can mitigate some of the risk of being unsuccessful. I see no way to do that with jumping. It's almost like leaving the outcome to fate. Nope, not for me his jumping thing. I've eliminated jumping, gun, drowning, train, buried alive, and stabbing myself or cutting wrists or throat, thus far, from any method I will choose.

that sounds dangerously low for a successful attempt.

someone on here said they have access to a 1000ft fall - that would be great! Highest I have is 500ft, but with a patrolling suicide-squad around the cliffs
