About a million different ways to off someone, but leave it to the government to constantly wring their hands about it.  Just get some of the old mafia hitmen and have them do it.  A .22 behind the ear, no muss no fuss.

I think we can most likely agree that suicide is almost always* a tragic end and a foolish overreaction to a problem that could be probably overcome. With that said thousands and thousands of people around the world do choose to end their lives and the means or instruments chosen are often unimaginably painful or gratuitously destructive.

I can’t begin to appreciate the pain that people experience when a loved one commits suicide but I have to imagine that the survivors’ grief is intensified knowing that the decedent died horribly. I’m not a believer in open caskets and the viewing process but since almost every burial is preceded by a wake ceremony of one fashion or another I have to assume that many survivors are comforted by being able to see their loved ones one last time. I don’t understand how or why viewing someone’s dead body helps but apparently it does. Needless to say many of the common means of suicide do not leave remains that can be viewed by loved ones.

I can’t recall ever hearing or reading of someone killing themself with nitrogen. If it’s as easily available and as painless as many here claim, why isn’t it frequently used whether to minimize personal suffering or to lessen, even if only infinitesimally, the suffering of friends and family?


*I’m not dying of a horribly painful fatal illness, or living a horribly painful life or wasting away totally paralyzed with no hope of improvement, thank goodness. I don’t believe that I or anyone else has the right to deny a competent adult of the right to end his suffering and misery.

I suppose you could try to repurpose the N2 even, like to do ballons, but that seems a bit dark.

Because it takes planning, suicides most of the time arent planned like that.
Plus when you get the tank, they are going to start charging rent and you dont want your family dealing with the return.

This makes plenty of sense, which is why it took us, what, 100 years to figure it out?

Helium and Argon are wasted here, there's a limited supply and we need them for other things.  

We'll ALWAYS have plenty of N2, and its completely idiot proof.  All the executioner needs to do is open a valve on a tank.

All the retardation surrounding executions is truly comical.

It's like when the company that made one of the drugs for the lethal injection cocktail refused to sell it anymore. And people just vapor locked. Minds completely gone. "Well we can't do what we've always done? Then we can't do it at all!!" Insta moratorium on executions. People aren't hard to kill. There's quite literally a million ways to die. I don't care how big a tolerance you've built up, if you push a gram of fentanyl up someone's pipe they're gonna die. Hanging, oldie but Goldy. Nitrogen suffocation, used all over the country in animal shelters. Painless and non toxic ingredients required, unlike the cyanide gas chamber. Utah used the firing squad to great effect not long ago.

Just fucking commit to something people for fuck's sake.

When my mom was a cancer researcher decades ago, her duties included killing the tumor-ridden rodents in a small tub with a splash of liquid nitrogen at the bottom. It would quickly evaporate and then the rats and mice could be dropped in.

When my hamster died the day before we left for Disney World, I was too excited to think about it at the moment, but it has raised a few questions in my mind since then.

There are many reasons.

People aren’t as aware or it and it takes planning, many suicides are impulsive acts.  

Also even if you get it you have to administer it effectively, like put a bag around your head and have the gas flow into it purging any oxygen.  People do fail, here is a case study.  https://www.e-kmj.org/journal/view.php?number=2235

Hanging, guns, falls, trains, drugs are what we hear about, so that is what people do.  

Also it’s obvious some people want a family member to find them, they want it to hurt.

Some people actually think hanging is a quick clean way to go that preserves their visage, there was a study about it. https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/the-british-journal-of-psychiatry/article/factors-influencing-the-decision-to-use-hanging-as-a-method-of-suicide-qualitative-study/EB259F432B70A1B4C71E1B842CC13347

Lethal injection drug suppliers are starting to balk and not sell to state corrections for the procedure. Nitrogen can be easily procured.

It's a superior method of execution, and it will start to be seen that way after this.

That said, I'm starting to sour on the death penalty. I do not trust the state.
