White Christmas13 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Hanged on a mini fridge how tall was he ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeverSure Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Just tall enough that his feet could reach the floor when he was standing. According to the article, his wife said he did it to relieve pain. That's possible but if the lights go out he couldn't come back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wehavenofuture Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Hanged on a mini fridge how tall was he ? no need to hang from a high place. This happens all the time... people hang themselves from a doorknob, etc. Apparently they just pass out before they die.

impulse Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 According to the article, his wife said he did it to relieve pain. That's possible but if the lights go out he couldn't come back. I used to get migraines that made me not care if I lived while they were on me. I can completely understand if he couldn't take it any more. RIP to the guy and condolences to his family.

Suradit69 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Shouldn't the photo in the O/P show people pointing at the fridge? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
razer Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 This one is way outside the box of my imagination. This would never, ever make the suicide list in developed countries without a thorough investigation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens all the time... people hang themselves from a doorknob, etc. Apparently they just pass out before they die. I had no idea this could be possible, but it makes scientific sense.

grantbkk Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 This is not necessarily a suicide. A common self treatment for severe headaches that used to be called cluster headaches.

retarius Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 I would love for someone with access to the data, to calculate the suicide rate among farangs living in, or visiting, Thailand. If there are say, I million farangs in Thailand at any one time and one of them commits suicide each day (as I seem to read about them on TV with depressing frequency) how does that compare to the suicide rate in Europe?

lostinisaan Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 (edited) Does anybody know if it's the same guy who was topic of a thread not long ago, when he wanted some morphine from the hospitals and cops showed up? Please see older thread: Norwegian had/has a problem in Udon. P.S. Just Googled it and found some scary stuff. Norwegian man committed suicide in Udon Thani in 2011. http://www.udontalk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12160 Too many suicides in Udon Thani, to be honest. Of course no foul play involved. RIP....

navara Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 It doesn't make sense to me. There is no weight to hang yourself, if it is so easy, why not a plastic bag over your head? Nope, I do not believe in suicide. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

White Christmas13 Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Suicide ha ha with hid wife hanging on his chest on a mini refrigerator. He must have had help doing it or decapitated below the waste. I hope his family puts pressure on the Norwegian to look into this so called suicide. I was born at night but no last night! If it smells like bull sh-t it it is bull sh-t! She was causing his head aches! huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scully Posted May 21, 2015 Share Posted May 21, 2015 Looking in the Thai press it doesn't look like there was a struggle, also it wasn't a 'mini' fridge but one that he could hang around his neck while sitting upright. It also names the poor bloke, looks odd but quite feasible. Condolences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
