Fan in San Diego Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 True Romance was an awesome film. Great cast as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Yeah. Inoperable brain cancer can be a B word. I've seen lots of rumor, but no confirmation. And please...if you've got inoperable brain cancer and want to spare yourself the lingering death, don't jump off a tall bridge. It's a nasty, ugly, messy death.

bbb Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Drowning's pretty good. So I've heard. I've never even understood how you can drown yourself. I guess get yourself to a place where you can't swim anymore? So, you're bloated body looks good after that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He explains the simple way of pulling it off. http://www.denverpost.com/paige/ci_16149407 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UConn James Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Drowning's pretty good. So I've heard. Not as I've heard. An RN I know said it's one of the more physically painful ways to go, which can last for up to 3-4 minutes before water fills your lungs and oxygen depravation kills your brain. It's not like the movies (e.g. Eva Green in Casino Royale). At least with Mr. Scott's method, there's no prolonged agony. It's like flying for a few seconds and then *WHOOMP* it's over. If it were me, I'd probably go for sleeping pills or CO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bbb Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 I've heard people say it's very scary but not painful. Still not sure where people get their info from. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it were me, I'd probably go for sleeping pills or CO. I've read testimony from near-drowning victims that have been revived that say otherwise...that once your lungs fill up with water, it's actually rather peaceful. The agony apparently comes from trying to resist breathing in the water. But then, I've also read testimony from people getting chomped by man-eating lions that says it's relatively painless, and from others that say it hurts like a mother!@#$er. A lot of it probably depends on the individual and particular situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
