Why is no one mentioning electricity as a method

[hurb]

So basically when my mother was pregnant with me, her brother offed himself with electricity. I'm not sure how he did exactly , but it always felt like the method i should go for too.
The issue here is , it feels like everyone avoids speaking bout electricity, as if it's some sorta of a redacted method.
Idk know enough about the subject , but I have seen many videos of humans and birds alike unintentionally touched those street cables and instantly fry and die.
my question is , are those cables the same ones that we find connected to our houses, and if yes then why isn't this talked about enough. any information is greatly welcome !

Sounds painful

 

[Dejected 55]

It's painful if it works... and it is unpredictable. You really don't know where the charge is going to go... it could kill you instantly, do absolutely nothing at all to you, and everything in between. There are lots of stories of people surviving direct lightning strikes, for example. and in many cases barely being injured at all.

A lot of the methods that are discouraged or rarely talked about is for a reason... they are prone to failure or unreliability and can make your situation worse without bringing you the release you seek.

I saw an exact copy of this post a while ago, don't know where it went or why it's being reposted, but it's an interesting topic.

every day people come up with more and more methods that i cant imagine being better, easier, or cheaper than just compressing your damn carotids

it didnt look painful at all through the videos i watched. the guy died instantly tho

u r telling me there is another me out there?

 

[lakefish]

It is painful.
It doesn´t remotely guarantee success.
In case of faliure might leave really bad side effects
Really bad method, and might bring other hazards and problems to other ppl such as fire, property damage etc...

That's the thing. IF it works quickly and fully... then there probably isn't a lot of pain. It's just not something you have any real control over and there are so many unpredictable variables. As I said, it could work exactly as you hope... or it could not work at all but leave you unscathed... or it could cause all kind of pain and injury and trauma that will leave you far worse off than you are now. I haven't seen anyone come up with a tried-and-true way to predict the outcome and guarantee reasonably a no-pain-quick-death via electricity.

i saw this method in a gore video. how can u know if they died instantly or are just paralyzed?

the video i watched wasnt even an attempt, he was a worker and had a brain fart and touched the streets cable and insta died and his corpse stayed on top of the cables. pretty sure he died also the comments confirmed it.

Hmm, so when I used to watch live leak 10 years ago I saw a video of someone trying to steal copper from one of these transformer type things in Brazil or one of the south American countries.

Dude got fried and came out looking transparent and burnt.His skin had basically gone and there was light(sparks) coming out from inside him. It was just brutal. Don't recommend this method at all. He didn't die, he was just standing with his arms outward like a ghost while everyone ran from him.

Electricity? Call it what it is, electrocution. It isn't talked about more for a reason. If you want a method that's incredibly painful and unreliable, then it might be just the right one for you.

That's just.... So scary to me. Scary to think of my family finding me like that, idk. There's something about it that gives me chills while other methods bring me peace when I think about them

 

[WhatCouldHaveBeen32]

ZEUS! You have NO BAL-

(getting electrocuted feels like you're in sleep paralysis but it's real and it hurts like hell, source: know someone who got electrocuted and survived)

im pretty sure finding a corpse in general is harrowing, and being found stiff, smelling of burnt hair and pork chops would be just as sickening.. i would also never support a home suicide if you live with people, regardless of the method. it's pretty easy to find an inn, or a public secluded area, depending on what you plan to do.

idk bout this , sometimes the parents gotta see the results of their actions. i think many people commit as an act of revenge and I respect that

 

[Lucid7972]

having been accidentally shocked for a few times, I am positive you don't change the light bulbs or fix wires by yourself
it is fucking painful

you took this very out of context; i was replying to someone who was worried about presumably good and loving family that they love finding their body 'like that,' as in hanging or night night'd. obviously if your goal is to traumatize someone who traumatized you, go nuts

This most likely wouldn't work. In a modern house the circuit breaker would turn the power off instantly. In an older house, or if the circuit breaker is removed beforehand, the most likely result of this setup is being flung backwards across the room. I've done a very similar thing once by sticking my finger between the prongs on the plug of a laptop charger and plugging it into an older-type socket that is flat on the wall, rather than being recessed like the one in the picture.

It sounds extremely painful and I'm sure people would rather die peacefully.

All this... and you'd have to use an older appliance too, because modern appliances also have fuses built-in to them designed to cut the circuit is the power drain is suddenly too high.

You can't determine how quickly death or loss of consciousness happened from just by observing an unresponsive body on a video. Electrical shock paralyses muscles, sometimes to the extent that you can't even scream. But when people are still able to show some signs, it's clearly visible how painful electrical shock is.

 

[aRose]

House current certainly wouldn't do it but something far more dramatic like a hugging the third rail or a transformer might be pretty quick. Still does not seem like a good idea.

 

[Dejected 55]

People sometimes survive the electric chair... which is literally designed to kill people... so... I wouldn't try it myself.

My personal experience with electricity, I was shocked once by a 50 amp receptacle when I was around 10 I if I remember correctly. .1amps can kill you so I was well over. Amps are what can kill you, volts just f-ing hurt. For example a Taser is 50,000 volts but no amps and any death that occurs is from the strain on the body from the pain. When I was hit with the 50 amp 240v, it was immediately lights out. Completely black no feeling just nothing. During that time, witnesses said I curled into a ball but was still upright almost on my toes. After about 45 seconds I was shot about 20 feet away and woke up in severe pain. Went to the hospital and had 3rd degree burns on my elbow and ankle where the electricity exited. Was told I should have died but alas I am still here with the mere mortals. Can electricity be used, yes. It is super unpredictable as stated by others and will likeley result in a lot of pain.

That's not how electricity works. Amps are derived from the applied voltage and the impedance. Getting 50 A from 240 V requires a conductor with an impedance of 4.8 Ohm. Making such a good conductor out of your body is nearly impossible.

50 kV from a taser are never applied to a body, it's just a peak voltage needed to form an arc. The real voltage that reaches the body is much lower. Even if the electrodes of a taser are fully connected (without gaps) to the body, the voltage significantly drops under load in accordance to the limited current (defined by the manufacturer) and the Ohm's law. Besides, it's delivered in short impulses which differ from those 50/60 Hz sine waves in home electricity.

Like honestly, I'd prefer seeing a blue-lipped corpse than the smell of burnt human flesh being stuck in my nose—I've heard from EMTs that it is one of the hardest smells to get rid of.
