when people commit suicide by jumping off the South Street bridge, it's not the impact with the water that kills them. the bridge simply isn't high enough in the air. no, instead, they sink to the relatively shallow bottom of the Schuylkill River and get stuck in the mud on the river bed. there, they drown.

about four days later, their bloated bodies rise to the surface, their faces disfigured from the stress of drowning. then they wash up on shore, to be discovered by an observant jogger.

glamorous.

I disagree. I have no personal experience in the matter, but I would think that having a large tree fall on your legs/lower torso and pin you to the ground as you slowly die of internal damage (if you're lucky, if you're unlucky and nothing inside you gets damaged, then you get to starve to death)

Well, I have yet to hear of such a death occurring. Drowning and burning are rather common.

just stretch a canvas out, behind your head.

insert the .45 in your mouth.

sell the splatter of brain and blood upon the canvas as avant-garde art.

Still, it is possible, however unlikely.

Aquaphobia- I am absolutely terrified of being on a boat in the middle of the ocean or even on a large lake. I have no idea why. I can't go swimming in anything besides a pool because i hate the feeling of not being able to see whats in the water around me. I also am not very good with heights, but i'm a lot better than I used to be.

no, no reference.

just the cynical ramblings of a second rate mind.
