This lady was serious - set herself on fire at a petrol station

[StuFin]

Poured petrol all over herself then was engulfed in a fireball, died in hospital, age 53.

I can't imagine doing that.

I've honestly considered doing that. I forget who exactly did this, but a bunch of people did something similar BUT they were so calm and collected about it. Like it was crazy. I want to try and be like that if I do try this.

 

[Ardesevent]

She's definitely brave. Hopefully she was at peace.

 

[Good4Nothing]

That's got to be a horrible way to go.
You'd have to really hate yourself to want to suffer that much on your way out.

 

[opiatedreamz]

damn... i hope she's at peace now at least. she had to be dead-set.

 

[AprilsBlessings]

Mohammed Bouazizi also did that as a protest and started the tunisian revolution

[Cakes]

That's a terrifying way to go :( Hope she's at peace now.

 

[Broken Chimera]

Out of all the ways to ctb, that one always surprises me. She couldn't wait to get out of here.

 

[fearmenot]

That sounds absolutely horrifying. I can't imagine the pain and even the smell of her own burning flesh. My goodness

 

[Symbiote]

It's better to inhale the flames and smoke to hasten your death.

 

[SmellyRat]

Fucking hell

 

[woxihuanni]

Generally worthless pawns burnthemselves for filthy ideologies, suprising for random person to go that way.

I remember watching a video of a monk setting himself on fire while sitting down calm and collected I can´t believe how they can endure such pain it must be one of the most painful ways to go I would not recommend you doing this.

I want it to be painful, I want to leave like I came in, kicking and screaming. I guess that makes me a masochist but, I really want to feel horrible pain before I die. I feel like I deserve it.

Death by fire (actually burning to death, not suffocating from smoke inhalation) is said to be the worst and most painful way to die or at least one of the worst. Which is why it was about the most gruesome execution method throughout history and only reserved for the most heinous crimes for which the maximum deterrence was required. It amounts to pure torture and supreme agony and death can take days if rushed to the hospital. It took Jan Palach days to die during which he couldn't breathe properly: he must have suffered horribly even after they treated him at the hospital he was rushed to.

Not to mention one might survive with horrible burns, disfiguration and all sorts of medical problems if rescued. Imagine ending up a freakshow for the rest of your life (even if one doesn't have any other medical problems which doesn't seem likely) and there's no way they're going to allow you another chance to check out: it'll be in effect a life sentence.

To those who entertain this as a morbid fantasy and claim to enjoy pain: you have no idea what you're in for so don't take the risk. No-one deserves to have to go through that hell and you will be branded a complete and utter lunatic simply because of this method which is associated with the most severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia.

In my view there's nothing courageous about torturing yourself to death: it's an act performed by extremely distraught people who have no regard for anyone including themselves and their loved-ones and who are most likely so out of touch with reality they ignore their innermost biological urges (avoidance of pain). In all likelihood they are so delusional they haven't even got the faintest idea of exactly how much it'll hurt. Until they do it and they die screaming like stuck pigs. The nervous system does not care one whit about what the mind thinks it can and wants to endure. There's no off-switch in case you can't take it anymore.

As to the example of buddhist monks and others who died in a supposedly composed manner: do you really think they weren't given the most potent pain-killers and other mind-numbing agents beforehand or procured them themselves? There's no way meditation makes one immune to such pain and even if it did you'd better practice for decades before you're at that level. Even then it's a complete gamble with insanely high odds.

This method is abhorrent and most offensive to human dignity. Even the worst scum doesn't deserve to die like that let alone those who suffer so badly they want to die and whose suffering was in all likelihood not inflicted by themselves. Even if that were the case you deserve compassion and should have compassion for yourself, not punish yourself even more.

PS: I'm perfectly aware the person posting about wanting to die that way may just be trolling but in case they're not I hope this at least got you thinking.

I don't think any amount of lacking quality of life could make me desperate enough to endure that level of pain and fear. she must have been suffering quite badly to go to that extent.

Top 10 movie of all time. Mad Max Fury Road. If they promised a sequel I might have to wait to CTB

I'm pretty sure I saw that one. It's the only self immolation I've seen where they didn't start screaming and immediately regret the decision. The sheer fortitude he must have had is astounding.

Terrible way to go...

Agreed I think it´s also the only self immolation video I have seen where they didn´t scream in pain even when other monks did the same in other videos they could only sit still for a moment but then would start rolling around to put the flames out.

Actually I have never seen it I just love that meme it fits perfectly to respond to trolls. For the movie I am sure it´s good I mean Tom Hardy alone is an amazing actor.

 

[Good4Nothing]

I believe the monk you guys are talking about is Thich Quang Duc. He burned himself alive during America's involvement in the Vietnam war and became an icon of the war protests. But he wasn't protesting the war, he was protesting the majority Catholic government's marginalization of Buddhists. He's a hero to the Buddhists there, and even has a monument in his honor.

Why do you say that? I've had this idea for years. It's a legit thing for me.

I know that it's none of my business but i really don't think anyone - no matter how bad they are - deserve this, it's hard enough for you that life bought you here, so at least go in a peaceful way :(

I hate myself so much and I feel like such a horrible person. I literally feel like that's the only way I should die. I've compared myself to horrible people that have done horrible things.(I'm talking the infamous ones) and a part of me knows I'm not as bad as they were, but like the self hatred consumes me sometimes and I go into a spiral of "I'm as bad as x who did x and killed thousands" or w/e. It's a horrible thing I have trouble controlling. I think it stems from my mom's emotional and mental abuse. My older sibling was treated so much better than me so I realized I'm useless, nothing, a nobody. I realized I shouldn't like myself because I was bad in school and was never as good as my older sibling was at things. I never got good at anything, even though I try to write and sing, so I feel such hatred. I used to sh as a punishment but that isn't enough anymore. I feel like I deserve to feel the worst pain imaginable. I feel like I deserve to be set on fire and laughed at because I failed as a human being. I wish I was joking. I wish I could say I'm a troll, but I'm not. I really, truly, experience these thoughts and feelings.

I'm so sorry that you feel this way, i can see where this feeling came from, it's hard to love yourself when you're not loved or treated well, did you go to therapy before?
and..i think for this reason you deserve to go in the most peaceful way, you already had enough through your life that you're here now.
just please try to be softer on yourself, yourself always deserved to be treated gently, so when it's time, please give it the chance to rest in peace.

That's all the things you are too scared to feel towards people who belittled you. That is the correct address, not yourself.

As for that self-love shit, putting responsibility on yourself to fart rainbow farts will do nothing. If you turn the hate towards rightful recipes, 'self-love' will automatically be discovered.

We are genetically programmed to 'love ourselves' ffs, it is like SI. You cannot see that a chore to be accomplished while trying to be too nice to scream: Those fuckers should burn! They treated me ill!

Imagine setting them on fire, every day. Do that instead of the staring at the mirror and saying deranged, idiotic and stomach turning platitudes to the mirror. I LoVe MysElf. Yeah.

You'd imagine it would be agonising

Not after 2/3 mins as your nerve endings would have been burnt off and you'd feel nothing, just hope there's no do-gooder there with a fire extinguisher!

Minutes that will probably feel like an eternity.
