Topic: Guy kills himself, online forum in trouble

A 19-year-old man has committed suicide live on the internet encouraged by others who were watching, according to reports.

The 19-year-old lay on his bed and only after several hours of no movement did others begin to take him seriously. With the video still running, forum members managed to contact the local police who eventually broke down the door, found the body and switched off the camera. Up to 1,500 people were viewing the feed, according to one report.


On Wednesday he went to the bodybuilding.com forum and detailed the amount of drugs he was going to take. The moderators of the forum reportedly did not take him seriously because of his past threats and other forum members encouraged him to carry out his threat.

Oh yeah for the record. The guy had pulled stunts similar to this before but had been joking and never went through with offing himself. I dunno if this was ever reported on FOX/MSNBC/Times etc.

I find it strange how the cops come into the room with their guns pointing at his head...

I suppose being in Aus the pigs are comfortable around civvies because they aren't as frightened of us putting guns in their faces.

And that's the problem with the world. No-one cares. No-one gives a s*** so we have war, we have disease we have all this stupid bulls*** that could be solved if people gave a s*** about other people, but no. You know what, f*** you all.

The incident reminds me of the movie 'Untraceable'.

Except here the guy that killed him is both the terrorist and the victim.

Plot: 10/10.

You think that's bad, I drove past a girl last week that was SMSing on one of those 50cc scooters.

At least she's only going to kill herself though, the guys in cars will probably take someone with them.
