Rarely a 2nd chance at life for those who opt for the gun:

 

"Approximately 90% of people who attempt suicide with a gun will die. In contrast, over 90% of those who attempt suicide by other methods will live, and they are unlikely to attempt suicide again."

Police found blood on the ground and there was a single gun shot wound above Mr Rattapoom’s right eyebrow.
 

Sorry lads but I'd rule suicide out initially. To me I would think someone attempting to kill themselves with a gun would not choose that sort of angle to shoot themselves - gun to the side of the head/temple, the ear, under the chin, in the mouth - but above the eyebrow ?
