Hi folks,
Unfortunately my first thread and account was lost due to data loss, so thx again for getting access to this site.
Of course, nothing has changed in my health situation, MS with TN (aka Suicide Disease) still in the house. But there are the first signs of the beginning of the Indian Summer and that means, i have to prepare myself for the last great ride!
Unfortunately plans have changed! After almost six years, the shipping company closed the route I had planned so long. My "jumping off" point to the sea can no longer be reached with cargo-only ship a the moment, I would have to rely on car ferries and cruise ships. That means: lots of passengers on deck, probably also at night when they walk the dog or go for a smoke on deck. Cruise ships even worse! More nasty CCTVs and on modern ships there is a chance for an automatic person over board detection system by CCTV/IR. The ships still need 10 to 15 minutes for a turn after mob-alert, so a fatal outcome is almost sure. However SAR-missons will be initiate, which become horribly expensive! My travel insurance does cover search and rescue costs, but only in the event of an accident and not suicide. With diving leads on your belt, plus CCTV recordings, big big problem. It's not possible, I also have a financial obligation to my heirs! So I won't be able to see my beloved sea again during my lifetime.
Goto Plan B> Plan B was developed during the Corona period. Full hanging in a remote forest. The equipment is simple, 10.5mm rope with tear resistance of 29kN. I've already tried hanging on the tree in simulation. Will do it with a simple slipknot in front and over the Adam's apple. I hope that this will protect the trachea a little at 1100 kN of downforce and that the pain will not be so severe.
I did a few days ago a test with partial. Bathrobe belt, just a loop, placed over an anchor point al one meter high, held on the other side with the hand (when unconsciousness occurs, hands open, so no prob). I was surprised how quickly it happened! The loop was under the Adam's apple and I just let my upper body hang forward. Sound became quieter, double vision and out. 5 or 6 seconds, no more and black. A few more seconds and I lay on the floor in the pillow and woke up again. No pain until blackout! Good to know, but of course I don't want to die at home! Only at the resting point of the belt a feeling of more severe sunburn for a day. A cream plus 2 paracetamol, no deal. I hope that with full suspension the blackout comes so fast too and that there is no or vy little pain.
Failure is not an option!
