I read the Natural Weapons section of The Anarchist Cookbook and… wow. Just by hitting a few body parts hard enough with your hands, you can easily kill someone? That’s terrifying to know, but also helpful.

No wonder paranoia becomes a real issue in war…


If I became suicidal now; I could have a high chance to succeed.

    Humans can be tough.

    Father told me that in his practice he saw girl that survived with a knife in her head, or a girl that was almost beheaded and become crippled but remained alive, or a veteran that survived a headshot and lived 60 years with bullet in his head.

    As he says, it’s usually takes some effort to kill a human.

      Hearing stuff like that honestly makes me question how much the sheer will to live has a factor on these things, sometimes

    Note that there are quite a few inaccuracies in The Anarchist Cookbook.

    Regarding the fragility of human life, I don’t know anything.

      I saw a documentary and basically the guy found books on different subjects then collated into a single book. There was no research per se. It’s funny in a way that the book was so controversial because I think he got all the information from a local library.

    Eh, you would probably be found out before the suicide is completed and be left with permanent damage.

    Maybe this is not a good post to make in this community. This could be highly triggering for users who are suicidal.

      What is the difficulty of pulling off a suicide attempt?

      Good point. Should mark it NSFW.
