Ogrish.com - UK Man Dies After Failed Suicide Attempt
I couldn’t help but laugh at this article. “Man dies after failed suicide attempt”. If you die, it didn’t fail did it? I guess the argument could be made that since the initial attempt at suicide failed but he died shortly afterwards that it didn’t count as a successfuly suicide attempt…. but I’m of the opinion that if you try to kill yourself and you end up dying as a result of anything that happened therein, it’s a successful attempt… since after all you DID kill yourself. Say if you jump off a bridge onto the pavement below but you land and just severely incapacitate yourself and don’t actually die… but you try to get up and are squashed by a tractor-trailer. Is that a failed attempt? No, not really. You still died! Anyway, enough about that. I just found it horribly amusing. Read it anyway because his attempt at suicide is rather comical.
