Florida boy's suicide live on web A teenager in the US state of Florida has committed suicide in front of a live internet audience. Abraham Biggs, 19, from Pembroke Pines, near Miami, killed himself hours after announcing his intention to do so on his blog. His family have condemned the website viewers and operators for failing to save him. Local police have launched an investigation. Authorities say Abraham Biggs took an overdose of anti-depressive drugs. He posted messages online telling people he was going to kill himself and then started streaming live pictures from his home. Reports say that some of viewers who logged in to watch began to encourage the teenager to commit suicide, others tried to dissuade him. After several hours, when he had not moved some viewers finally notified the site's moderator, who then called the police. The boy's sister said: "They got hits, they got viewers, nothing happened for hours." It is unclear how many people watched the suicide unfold. Some reports suggest that some viewers thought it was a hoax. The last transmission from the webcam is of a police officer bursting into Abraham Biggs's room, when he discovers his body and then he places his hand over the camera. The footage has since been taken down and his father is now calling for more regulation of chatrooms. |
WTF????
This is disgusting as well

Man 'carefully planned' his chainsaw death after losing eviction battle with developers
The last resident in a block of flats due to be demolished cut his own head off with a chainsaw to highlight the 'injustice' of being asked to move out, an inquest heard today.
Desperate David Phyall, 50, plugged the electric chainsaw into the mains and attached a timer to the socket.
He then wrapped sellotape around the machine's trigger to secure it in the 'on' position and tied the handle of the saw to a table leg to hold it steady.

The block where David Phyall lived and committed suicide. He was being evicted by developers
Mr Phyall rested the saw on his neck and waited for the timer to go off.
The Black and Decker chainsaw sliced through his neck in an instant but kept going for a further 15 minutes.
Police and paramedics found his blood-soaked body at the flat in Bishopstoke, near Southampton, Hampshire, after his father John raised the alarm.
Mr Phyall was the last resident living in an area marked for a mass redevelopment and all 71 surrounding flats were empty.
The inquest heard Mr Phyall, who had lived in the 1960s flat for eight years, was the last resident in the block and had resisted 11 offers of a new home.
The inquest in Winchester, Hampshire, today heard that on July 5 this year Sergeant Mark Carter was called to the flat after Mr Phyall's parents found it was locked from the inside.
Sgt Carter told the inquest he broke into the flat using a crowbar before making his way to the lounge where he found Mr Phyall's body dressed in underpants and a T-shirt.
He said: 'The carpet was covered by a layer of blood and the ceiling above my head was also splattered with blood.
'I could see an electric chainsaw embedded in the man's neck - the blade was three quarters of the way through his neck.
'The handle of the chainsaw had been tied by white string to a table leg and the trigger had been tied up by sellotape.
'The lead was connected to a timer switch which was plugged into the wall.
'I have never come across an incident quite this graphic.'
Detective Sergeant Mark Huxford told the hearing: 'The head was still attached by the right shoulder and his head was lying to the left.
'A large area of carpet had blood splattered all over it because of the way the Black and Decker chainsaw had been spinning around.'
Mr Phyall's father John Phyall told the hearing he had no idea his son had any plans to harm himself.
He added: 'We had seen him a week prior to his death and he had appeared cheerful and had been making jokes. His death was totally unexpected.'
It is believed Mr Phyall killed himself two days before his body was found.
The inquest heard that on April 18 a letter was sent to all residents of the block by First Wessex Housing Group Ltd saying the building would be demolished.
However, Mr Phyall refused to leave his one-bedroom flat and had been taken to court by the housing association.
Two weeks before his death First Wessex Housing Group had been awarded possession of the flat giving them legal entitlement to evict him.
Recording a verdict of suicide, Deputy Central Hampshire Simon Burge said Mr Phyall had killed himself in a bid to 'make a statement'.
He said: 'The scene was clearly an appalling one.
'In the 15 years I have been sitting as deputy coroner it is the most bizarre case I have seen.
'Mr Phyall had thought through how he was going to commit suicide very carefully - he went to a great deal of trouble to rig up the chainsaw knowing full well the result would be fatal.
'It was death in the most dramatic way imaginable.
'I find he did so to draw attention to the injustice he felt at being asked to move out of his flat.'
This is absolutely disgusting....
What sick sick people would sit and watch a boy kill himself?
There was one where some dude built a guillotine and killed himself using it.

Power of the mob and all that, no one spoke out because they probably figured someone else would. |

I watched the video: the kid is lying on the bed (dead) and a few seconds later a police officer comes into the room, checks the boy, and leaves.
Here is the thread from the body building forum: link
To Whom It May Concern,
I am going to leave this for whoever stumbles across my bookmarks later on. I hate myself and I hate living. I think that if someone who knows me reads this they will know who I am. So I will leave this unsigned. I am an a@#hole. I have let everyone down and I feel as though I will never change or never improve. I am in love with a girl and I know that I am not good enough for her. I have come to believe that my life has all been meaningless. I keep trying and I keep failing. I have thought about and attempted suicide many times in the past. I used to think of my failure as some mystical way of telling me that I was really meant for something meaningful. The only thing I dread, besides the pain, is the way my family will suffer. I do not want my mother or father to think that it was anything they did that lead me to kill myself. I never really had any plans of leaving a note. I thought that I would not be able to describe why I want to do this and I am right. There is no way to tell you or anyone else why I dread every new day. My father had such high expectations for me and tried to give me every opportunity to improve upon myself. I let him down. I think that I am a major disappointment to him. I have a job but I?m always broke and I am in college but barely, I show up to class but that?s about it. I want my life to end. I am tired of f@#$ing up everything. I am tired of people always telling me that they do not like me. I am tired of trying to be decent. I hope that someone finds this post and I hope that my parents know that I f@#$ed up not them. It is my fault I screwed up my own life. The hate that rages within me, rages not for those I love so dearly or those who have crossed my path. This hate rages full force towards me and only me. I have long forgiven those who've hurt me, but I have not and cannot come to terms to forgive myself for the things I have done to myself, and the things I've done to hurt those in my life. You have all touched my life in one way or another, especially those whom I call family. I cannot tell you how sorry I am for ending my life the way I did. I hope that you can all find it in your heart to see it as way for me not suffering anymore and that I am finally at rest with myself, for being at rest with the guilt that constantly ate at me for so long. Please forgive me all for taking my own life so early. I tried so hard to fight against this strong battle. I have reached out for help so many times, and yet I believe, I was turned away because of the things I did, that it is a punishment I am illing to take, for I know that being who I am has only brought myself and others pain. I love you all and will forever live within the memories we created. Forgive me. Love always and forever, As for my signature I will leave you with a quote so that if anyone reads this they will know it's me, "Can?t feel pain if your dead? Just Saying"
You know what???
I'm firmly opposed to suicide....
I think it's for the selfish, the weak and the stupid...
However...
If you're going to do it, this is the right way...
In your house, alone...
I once saw a woman who had jumped off the Leeside Bridge onto the center lane of the DVP south...
I got there 30 secs after she hit...
That idiot could've killed me...
What if she landed on the front of a school bus filled with kids...
Selfish weak and stupid...
And I bet that most of the ppl who watched that kid online thought it was a hoax...

i have a thread that i started yest night with regards to loosing my gear and y lif in a fire...
my friends gf was attempting to kill herself via fire. self-immolation. it didnt work, so instead it was arson.
she told the authorities and her bf, my buddy, that she burned their home down out of love and for love.
i will always have appreciation for her cause i know who she was b4 she lost it, she is not insane to me.
when i went back to the site today twice i saw what happened. she had the capacity to kill herself. she would have done it. period.
we have all been subject to murder and killing in day to day life. if it is someone else, it doesnt matter. its entertainment.
what if it was someone in your family? would you do something about it?
because you can watch someone else kill themself then you can watch members of your family kill themselves without an issue.
fuck all you twisted assholes, here is a thrill if you need one. drink bleach in front of a 7ft mirror, can you watch that? if so, for how long?
i saw this article at work today, and as much as i am appalled, i can honestly say i wasn't surprised by the chat room log picture that was posted...

we've all at some point or another felt like we were a disappointment..especially with parents..i personally feel that my father will always be disappointed in me..no matter how much i accomplish...we all feel like no matter what we do or how much we try..we just aren't quite there yet....
it's so fuckin selfish to leave that type of a note..with that whole..it's not you it's me message....how could you that to your family and loved ones? how could you do that to yourself!? and yes, depression is a major contributor to suicide..but most humans suffer from mild to severe bouts of depression throughout their lives..
I feel really bad for this kid and may he rest in peace..but i feel worse for the people he has selfishly left behind to deal with this....
as far as people watching it..it seems that most people weren't sure if it was real etc...which doesn't excuse it...but why the surprise..? people were tuning in by the millions to watch people's heads get chopped off...human beings will always have this perverse curiosity about death....it's something we are all going to face....

how the hell are people supposed to know he's committing suicide via pills? how do you know it isn't vitamin c tablets? this whole thing stinks.
the chainsaw story was pretty cool though.
and sorry to hear about that crazy psycho who tried to burn a house down for love. 
Damn, what the hell is that movie called that had a similar plot as this story. X something dot com, and thousands and thousands of people would watch someone being executed. F***ed
This kid was simply addicted to prescription meds like maany many Americans. This is the root problem here.
Apparently he was ODing on a regular basis and posting about it. This time he went too far, I think he was just bipolar and the meds fucked with his mind. Many people are skeptical whether this was actually a suicide, even the note was copied off the internet. If I really wanted to kill myself I'm pretty sure I would write my own note lol
