It’s a wonderful life

I heard a story on the radio today about a guy in the Newcastle area who commited suicide by building a guillotine in his bedroom equipped with a timer.
He went to bed with the timer set for 3 a.m. and his father found the grisly sight in the morning. It’s sad the guy couldn’t work out his problems but interesting he went to such detailed lengths to do the job right.

So the question is guys, if BootsnAll went tits up and you just had to top yourself, how would you do the job?

There are several methods I might consider.

1. The Monty Python method of getting a dozen topless women to chase me over a cliff.

2. A pub crawl along the Thames, finishing with a swim in the Thames.

3. A 24 hour all you can eat voucher at Sushi King in Las Vegas.

4. Skydive into the Grand Canyon without a parachute…the view would be awesome!

5. Rent a purple Lamborghini and drive it at 180mph into a wall. Or even better, arange a 4-way with the other 3 guys that we all converge on a spot in our own Lamborghinis.

6. Sneak into the Ben & Jerry’s factory and have a friend toss me into a vat of Cherry Garcia bound and handcuffed.

7. Rent that guy’s bed with the timer, but instead of a guillotine hook up a 20 gallon tank of Guinness to a feeding tube attached to my mouth.

These are just a few of the methods I might consider.

As Woody Allen said “I’m not scared of dying, I just don’t want to be there when it happens.”

I don’t think I’ll ever want to, Nick’s ideas sound fun. In fact, they actually sound like fun things todo if death wasn’t part of the deal.

Geez Nick, you’ve put some thought into this. Should we be concerned?
For me, if I had to choose, it would be something quick and (hopefully) painless - so I’d go for the skydiving or spontaneous combustion.
