Gruesome but I can't visualize this as described. Something is odd about how this is written.

We needed the money and the tabloids had their wallets out.

I do not see what the issue is. We knew how Marilyn Monroe died. Saw JFK’s head explode a million times, yet somehow this crosses the line?

I don’t get it.

Left wing crap? You have obviously not been keeping up with the anti-cop posts here on FR.

Has anyone seen “World’s greatest Dad”? Starring Robin Williams?

Plot goes something like, he’s a teacher, his kid is an ignorant, arrogant moron. Robin Williams character comes home to find his kid with belt around his neck in front of the computer watching porn, dead. RW character procedes to hang body in the closet and then writes a suicide note that everyone praises, turning the kid from a zero into a hero.

Art imitating life? Or did he really kill himself.

it was also aimed at them too.

I have ever seen so many left wing sites being posted on here over this tragedy since I have been a member.

-——Gruesome but I can’t visualize this as described-——

Wait just a minute. How do you hang yourself while sitting down? Smells more and more like I first suspected that it was that weird sex game.

Frankly, I am glad they told us how he died. When I first heard it I thought he may have Caradine-d himself because they mentioned the word asphyxia. It was a relief to know he did not do that.

The scenario sounds weird, was their big insurance money on his films, ala Jackson?

It doesn’t say that he was sitting down but that he was “in a seated position”. What I don’t get is how he could be suspended that way. I would think his legs would have dangled down so that he wouldn’t have been in a “seated position”.

Reportedly there was a knife and some superficial wounds to his wrist. He may have recalled the situation from the movie but it wasn’t his first choice.

Jerry Lewis almost killed himself (with a gun) because of severe back pain (since improved because of a surgery that installed an administerable electrical charge to override the pain signals). He didn’t go through with it because one of his grandkids walked in. He mentioned this on television at least once.

Robin Williams had been present at the hotel shortly before John Belushi died. He dodged a bullet that night.

The photos of Lenny Bruce’s dead naked body were widely distributed.

All you have to do it stop blood flow through the carotid arteries to the brain for about 15 seconds and nature does the rest.
