Find a 4-5 story building and swan dive off, suicide is never the answear find something that makes you happy
If you land directly on your head and you weigh a lot then probably a few inches. There are also recorded incidences of people surviving falls from airliners at above 30,000 feet. I hope that helps
Yes
Any tips for guaranteeing a head landing??
Suicide is never the answer. Don’t jump.

depends on the mass of the creature. You can drop a bug from any height and it will be fine. Google "a rat bounces, a man dies, a horse splats" for a quick essay as to why.
but this is relevant for the human too, if you want a precise measure. Does dropping a baby count? They're pretty squishy. Though when it comes to falls you're gonna get more data on old people. Old people fall all the time, and die from it too- just from slipping.
Subdural hematoma is the most likely form of trauma to kill you, and can occur from basically any innocuous bump on the head. So falling in a way that lands directly on your head, even only a meter or so, could potentially kill you if it manages to cause bleeding inside the brain.
Then of course you have to factor how hard the ground is. Falling a couple feet onto carpet is different than falling onto concrete. Carpet doesn't provide much cushion, but when you're dealing with small numbers it matters.
So wet ground? Asphalt? Loose Sand? Packed sand? Pointy rocks? A pointy rock could dent a skull better than any of the above.
With bad luck, I'm guessing you could die from a 0.25 meter fall onto a pointy rock. But it depends on the health and bone density of the victim, the environment, and I haven't done the physics equations regarding bone density to get an exact value. That's just my intuition.
>There are also recorded incidences of people surviving falls from airliners at above 30,000 feet
no
All depends on what part of the body you use to break the fall
I'm at my end guys.
I've lost everyone and everything.
I can't even get the junkies from grindr to return to hang out. JUST to have a place to do drugs. No sex....
No one wants me around. Everyone knows but Noone wants to be the one to make me Crack. I cracked years ago and I'm just coasting.
I don't want a do over I just want to switch off.
And it's not just the loneliness.
It's decades of failure at everything I've ever done.
The only thing keeping me from doing it is fear that I might survive.
Yes tho. Google Vesna vulovic

Not 4-5 that has a high chance of living, anything above 15 stories is like 99%, but I’d go with 10
And if I seek therapy they'll just put me in a hospital.
Been there. Fucking done that.
In rigging anything above 6ft, is considered a potentially dangerous fall.
If you're looking to die though.
This seems pretty spot on.
If you really want to kill yourself though OP, just buy a gun. So you can walk into a skyline and demand roof access.
That's fucking insane.
Are helium death masks legit? That's my second choice. (if it'll actually work)
ah, here's what you do OP. Since you're familiar with drugs, just find a vein and shoot a syringe full of air into it. 100% kill rate. Fast. Pretty sure you'll pass out before you go into cardiac arrest, but at any rate nobody has survived to talk about it. Most importantly, doesn't leave a bloody mess for some poor fucker to clean up.
Oh, and if you're gonna be super cool about it, do it on the toilet or in a bathtub. You're gonna shit yourself after you die. So being a bro about keeping that clean is the least you can do for the tip.
just remember, 100% guaranteed to work. There's no coming back from this.
I was a medic.
I need a huge fucking syringe for that.
Not a teeny one like junkies use.
depends more on what you hit and what on
though from a medical standpoint its 15ft or 2.5 times your height that results in dying more than living.
Don't listen to him. If you want to die and be a bro about it, why not die killing infidels in the name of the holy prophet? Come to syria today, get outfitted with a C4-belt and walk into the christian or zionist location of your choosing. Pro tip: be ready for a fuckload of fresh pussy in paradise.
I'm 5'10" but I'm pretty sure If I fell off a building I would die.
This is what I was thinking. I'd think even a short guy at 5'4", or even less, could easily die from a fall.
I think the better question is; How short would you have to be to not die from a fall?
the piano wire/superglue thing always amused me
it doesn't matter how tall you are. you'll still die if you fall far enough.
Guy around here tripped & hit his head on a curb. Dead. So about 5'10" should do it
We should investigate by throwing midgets out of helicopters at varying altitude
If I provide the midgets, will you arrange the helicopter?
Vesna the Cessna
Free helicopter rides, here sign this
I think that tall people would have a better chance at surviving a fall from a high place
Previous record holder was Nicholas Alkemade, 18 000ft.

dont do helium. get nitrogen. welding places are a good option
>What's the minimum height required to die from a ground impact?
Well if you're an under 6' manlet, you should die from embarrassment.
I was killed when I fell from a 6' step ladder
Keep your hands by your sides and spread your legs out wide to increase drag at the rear ensuring a head first dive
I fell 300 meters directly on my head.i was limbing a redwood in my grandparents yard.i ended up in the hospital with a sprained liver and a loose filling.shit was cash
Watch King of the Hill you fucking faggot.
