Sheesh - I know we all love japan to bits, and wonder 'why the hell kill yourself if you live in Japan?!!?' but the place has its fair share of problems.
Low pay, long work hours, bullying, pressure from family, stress - all things that can drive someone to suicide.
But still, it could be worse - you could have terror attacks every 10 minutes or live somewhere really poor and underdeveloped.
The general atmosphere and society of Japan is a lot more harmonious, pleasant and accommodating than a lot of places ive been to, and any would-be suiciders should be happy of that.
Also, if youre gonna kill yourself, dont do it in front of a train! You will have thousands of delayed people cursing your name. Not a good way to go. Unless you have a grudge, of course.

Glad there was no guts. I would freak out if someone jumped and splattered in front of me on the way to work...

It's no secret Japan has a high suicide rate (30k + each year) but what a way to go ^^;

This conjures up images of the movie Suicide Club & Gantz. Suicide Club is an awesome movie. I've only seen the Gantz anime and ehhh is all I have to say about it.

Well only he/she knows why the reason the commit suicide, mostly the reasons in are because of money problems and sometimes is due to stress which happens a lot in big cities like Tokyo. Thankfully the suicide rate here is pretty low, we may not be a very optimistic country but we praise our lives above everything else.

I am guessing that is one of the reasons they are installing automatic doors on the platforms here in Taiwan. I have not heard of it happening here, in Europe Fall seemed a "popular" time, don't believe they charged the family afterwards though..seems a bit rough...

Late last year in Singapore, there were also a few cases of people jumping onto train tracks. But it normally occured in the peak hours when everyone was going to work, so it kinda pissed off losta people since they ended up late for work and had to take alternative transport.

Anyway, last semester I briefly learnt about suicide in Japan, and I realised that there is even a book published on ways to successfully carry out a suicide. Its unbelievable bookstores actually sell that.

Suicide is never a way to go. I hear it happens a lot to office workers due to the long hours and having never enough pay. I also heard high schoolers and university students do it due to bullying problems they have at school. Though to be honest...it has come to mind but I always end up realizing how stupid it is.

Hmmm not just japan its a worldwide problem, cept it doesnt always make it into the mainstream news. Suicide is pointless, I'd rather live & do something useful ^^

If they want to reduce the number of people doing it via the train, they should probably not make the family pay. Some of these guys probably think of it as a bonus, being able to stick it to a family that doesn't care.

Have I ever thought about it? Sure, especially as a teenager. It was more of a curiousity than actually wanting to die.

There was a case in my country of a primary school boy from a poor family who committed suicide due to poverty and harsh bullying by his peers. It caused a lot of media sensation in my state several months ago.

Suicidal thoughts?
Each time I was truly depressed and lost about my own direction in life, I've wondered how I did turn to that, but there always was a force in me that said "Keep it up. You're lucky enough not to live in a place where you have to look for food/water to survive, where you can avoid people you can't stand and be with those who support you, etc.". So I am not fearing Death, but I'm not in a rush either to meet him early either.

If you can go for new horizons, try and never look back. If it is about expectations from others and that they are unreasonable, screw them (sorry for the choice of words).

As for what lies in the afterlife, I'm not eager to know. My time will come; the later the better.
"Life is a game where the outcome is always the same: Your life ends". Ah well, no surprises, no worries there ;)

Philosophy? No, simple words of one who wants to become a social counsellor one day ^_^

Most stations in Hong Kong have the slide doors that go from roof to platform and open when the train door matches up with the slide doors. I'm pretty sure only a few stations lack that in Hong Kong. Here in Toronto, we don't have them but I haven't heard of many suicides. As for Taiwan, when I was there this summer, I only saw slide doors at Taipei Central station, they're not as tall as the ones in HK though.

I've always managed to stay positive, though there are times I have found myself very low in life. There is always one good thing about being on the bottom, the only direction up. Sure that sounds like a cliche, but I've seen some hard times. I've always refused to lie down and die.

It's hard to say for women, but many men start to feel unneeded as they get older. When we are young we don't think of the abilities that come with our youth. Which is the way it should be. As you get older, it gets harder to keep up with the young guys. Many men often seem to have a problem with this feeling. Don't get me wrong I'm not justifying suicide. Just don't forget that it tough for some as they reach middle age.

I guess what is important is keeping close to family and having both older and younger friends. People who feel they have a purpose in life are eager to live a long life.

Please read "You're in a place where you can avoid people you can't stand and be with those who support you, etc."

Ah, I really should readproof myself a bit more often.

@Alafista Otaku: So there are recipe books on successful suicidal rites? That's insane, completely insane. And I'm sure some tried even as they were that desperate.

We should fight for our lives... Or die trying. ^_^;

@Tiny Red Man: But I thought that in Singapore you had those super glass walls and sliding doors (what kakit describes accurately in a comment below), which prevent people from going on the rails... (In France they also implemented that system in the "Ligne 14" which is the 14th metro line (state of the art one and one of the most recent).
I was in your country when I was a kid.

So was it on one metro line only? Are my memories playing some bad trick?

Thanks in advance for your answer.

I once thought of suicide back in high school when i was really low but thank goodness i didn't do it.

When i think of it now, why would anyone think of taking away their one and only life?

This might sound wrong, but i have the will to live because if i died, that would mean the end of anime, manga, eroge, figures and all the other good stuff in life.

I once heard this somewhere, all happy families are the same, each unhappy family has its own story to tell.

So, if you are feeling down, think about it. You are different, special, and one of a kind.

Keep on fighting the good fight and never give in to despair!!

@3den, Yep, my fiancee has worked with people like that as well. She often works late hours on a regular basis. It's also not unusual for her and other to go to the office on the weekends because they know they have extra work to finish.

The Japanese are just programed differently, just couldn't see westerners doing the same. If I say I feel bad about her working long hours, she often replies with something like I don't mind working.

Then again I'm one who over works as well. Will probably do the same there. ^^;

@Setsuna-san, Not at all, just shows you have a lot you want to experience and do before your time comes.

The Japanese are just programed differently, just couldn't see westerners doing the same. If I say I feel bad about her working long hours, she often replies with something like I don't mind working.

Then again I'm one who over works as well. Will probably do the same there. ^^;

Dang, i seen that in an anime, gantz. And yes it was a business man. I wonder why though. Suicide isnt the answer, seen it happened...

I saw someone who had apparently jumped out of a building in Shinjiku. It quite a mess with police and the news reporters, and of course the body they had to clean up. Oh, and a onsen blew up too that day. Of course, that was the thing that made the news, but the suicide suck in my head since I actually saw where it happened. *rather glumly* I guess it wouldn't have made my trip complete without seeing a suicide.

@ D_blade: onli some stations have the glass doors. Mainly the new ones. most suicide cases that occur are on older lines that doesnt have such doors. and lol, ur memories are still there. But if such cases occurs every now and then, then i believe the authorities will do something about it.

Japan is my favourite place in the world but like everywhere it does have it's down sides, high suicide rates seem to be one of them :(
I'm lucky in that my job provides very little stress.
I've never considered anything so drastic because fortunately I've never been that pissed off with life. If there's a worldwide ban on anime, videogames, food, beer, music, the internet and my wife then I might give it some thought!

3den, I agree with you. The working hours in Japan is really crazy compared to other countries. Can't believe I use to knock off at 6 when I was working in Singapore. I am lucky enough to be doing something I enjoy so the hours pass fast, but they aren't short. Many people die from work exhaustion here in Japan every year, and the stress related problems add to the suicide rate.

Well so far for mu daydreaming.....
As a matter of fact I'm often confronted with that kind of accidents???
I'm a staff member of our public transports company.....And believe it or not....we have to deal with that about once EVERY MONTH..is to say the effective suicides only .I'm not even taking in account the aborted attempts.Back here it affects all layers of society and can cause havoc during rush-hours.
It's a popular way ...because most of them think it's radical...Forget it ...some of them survive...crippled for the rest of their lives...Awfull!!
But I keep my fingers crossed...since the beginning of this month....not one yet.....

Suicide never crossed my mind. Most of the people in the world have real life stress. Be a man and face your fear/stress.
Even if you do want to suicide, why are you creating problems to others by doing such stunts? Go suicide elsewhere where there isn't much people you can bother. People do not want to care as the world is already stressful.
I remember last year in Melbourne, a taiwanese student jump off from the apartment and landed close to my friend's balcony. She was so frightened and had to move from that apartment.
You are given such a beautiful thing and yet you want to waste it by suiciding? Pathetic. Everyone has problems, are you that special Mr Suicide?

@Kirakun: Sometimes you have to understand the pain of others, even if suicide is the cowards' answer for some. I feel that modern societies have shut off some of our emotions so we can focus completely on performance and be able to endure difficulties without complaining.

You see, even the simple idea of expressing your emotions (crying, feeling bliss and so on) in public is kind of forbidden (to avoid a public scare, I think). If you begin to shout out your happiness, people will start to see you as a loco-loco person. Same goes with your sadness... You can't show that in public, it's inappropriate.

I am now thinking about the way we are socialized, I mean "programmed", and I'm feeling weird now. Ah well, it's how things go...

Sorry for my rant.

@D_Blade
Yes I understand. Yes I am harsh. The world is a cruel place to begin with it and of course at times it is tough to endure all these pains especially you lack the support and motivation to carry forward.

What I am angry about is that these people are creating extra problems, fear and stress to the community by performing such stunts in the public. I give my sympathy to those who can't endure the pain but to suicide publicly, that disturbs me a lot.

Looks like it happened on the Yamanote of all lines
(the busiest train line in the world). Quite a costly delay I'd imagine, maybe the guy had a thing against JR ^^;

I'm in Busan, S.Korea right now and the subway here has screen doors on all stations of line 3 and installing them for line 2 as well. But they don't really do good since people who are determined to commit suicide can simply find a station without screendoors. I've also seen screen doors on the yurikamome in Odaiba but those have rubber tires ;;

It's good to know that you wouldn't have taken pictures of the dead body. I know there are plenty of those on the internet and whatnot but people who go looking for them make me sick. Never have myself and never will (same as with smoking)

once i saw an old lady jumping from a bridge in front of a tramway in Montpellier, FR. I was on my way to work ,8Am and hopefully only had cigarettes cause i would have puke. I agree with some of you that says it's very disturbing even though i felt for this women and her desperate move.

I guess everyone comes to a point in their lives where they have the choice to go on or stop living. That choice is part of our freedom. But one should understand that ones freedom stops where the otherone's freedom starts. and just because I would care about the guys cleaning my guts out of the train, I wouldn't do that under a train.

never see or heard train station suicide. our ppl usually(not often, but mostly) kill themself by drinking a bug spray, or hang themself.

i did have a moment when i want to die.
but when that moment come, i feel kinda cold, shaking, and wonder is it painful?

well, i;m not going to do that kinda thing. except i;m 50, jobless, and still live my mama in that age

I've already been stuck in train for one or two hours, between Paris and where I live, because of "human accident" like it is usualy called. 4 or 5 times.
There is a lot of country's lands on this railway which lasts about 5 hours, and that's where thos accidents happened.

So I can't say that I've never thought about it, since it's quite disturbing when your more or less implied into this kind of event.

But I'm stunned by the fact families have to pay °_°

Sorry for double post.

This might sound stupid but i suggest we set up a community site to help people deal with suicides by exposing them to as much anime or manga we can get our hands on to change their perspective on life and maybe motivate them to live on.

Think about it, nonstop bombardment of Haruhi, Lucky Star, and anything else until they see the light.
Hows that?

achraf1989: Hardly anyone takes danny's polls seriously. Especially when most of the time its just random people off the internet & not those that are registered members here. So takes these poll figures with a grain of salt ;)

But I'm surprised many of you are eager to have a useful discussion about problems with suicide. Glad to know there are some sane people who use the internet.

jeez..cant stand real life blood.These ppl choose suicide as the last resort upon problems intervine in their life.Maybe they put their brains on their knee caps.Anyway,from where i came from its "normal" *i think* for indian's races to commit suicide on railways.Maybe due to their habits of drinking liquor till they end up snoozing on the rail tracks. Gosh..what a bummer...pity..pity..pity..(no harsh meant for any Indian's in here.

not surprising,most of the cases of ppl committing suicide on trains are ppl who have depression,mental illness,stress or had traumatic incidents such as bullying.usually when i think abt it,why wuld ppl choose to kill themselves on trains not knowing how their bodies wuld look like after they get hit.hmmm...

@Kirakun: Of course, interfering with others' lives (with delays and such) when you want to end yours is surely not something considerate to do at all.
I also agree that it can shock people for life, especially kids.

Even desperate people need to keep a sense of respect of others while trying to end their lives... If possible.

Hmmm - I used to take to Chuo line every day some of my Gai-jin friends called it the "CHUO-cide" line.

I am always saddened by suicides everywhere. They seem to be too common in Japan. Is it the fact that Japanese people dont hug or touch eachother? Or that they dont even look eachother in the eyes on the street (neither do people in UK). Even just say "hi" to someone they dont know is VERY uncommon.

Japan is a very very cool place and I love it , but socially speaking REALLY COLD. Except for Okinawa, but thats not really Japan...

@Dragun, No trying to be argumentative, but most "westerners" would not and do not work as the Japanese do. That's not to say that some of us don't put in a lot of hour and hard work. Simple because in Japan the work ethic that people like you and others have is a societal norm. I agree, I worked freelance for a while and one need to move if they want to make money. In my current position I work six days a week as well. I always bring work home and spend many hours working here at home. I look at it this way, I just change location and scenery during the day and don't give thought to how many hours I work.

@Sean, I think people in Osaka are friendly. You know traditional it's a big no no to show affection in public. The younger people often ignore that to extreme, by Japanese standards. ^o^ I've often seen couples of all ages holding hands in Japan. Once seen a really cute couple on the train. ^^; Two middle school age kids probably first time boyfriend-girlfriend stuff. I wasn't the only person watching... ^o^

Wow, there's been incidents of people falling in front of trains here but usually because someone pushed them...

Not that anyone would wanna suicide on our trains, they're always late =_=

It's pretty horrible to have to clean up the mess of a train suicide, not to mention the families that have to deal with loss of a member in such fashion.

@Collector: i dont think suicide can be said as common in any society. That said drinking a hell lot of liquor does lead to depression and possibly suicide.

Where i come from people are usually killed by the trains when they cross the tracks. Yes, the 'tracks'!!

@Edward: Yes, you got that right, youths tend to show their affection in public, a thing that is not seen in more traditional families (at least I know about Asian ones) and with older generations. It's a new trend that sometimes causes generation clash.
Let's say they are getting "occidentalized" and that is not a bad thing, if they don't go overboard. I am one of them, too (as I was born in Europe). ^_^

I would also like to talk about inter-ethnic relationships, but that is way off-topic.

And for last time, don't worry and don't excuse yourself, it was a normal reaction. :)

@Sean: It's just a different culture (norms, customs, trends, rites and such). What seems obvious to you is not always to the other and the avoidance of eye contact is more like a sign of respect in Asia.
I am taking a course of diversity right now and it really is great to understand how other people around the world see life.

I hope you see my point.

Sorry for expressing myself that much on this post. Couldn't help it. I guess I'll return to silence now. XD

When in Japan, I was rather surprised that even tho there are quite frequent incidences which involves human life under the trains, the service still goes on O_O; I guess they have ways to either clean up quickly or reroute ^^;

Man...so i guess those action movies where action heroes avoid being rammed/dragged by trains by staying in between the tracks won't work in reality eh?

I'm quite shocked that this is a common way to commit suicide though. Sounds messy and troubles a lot of people from commuters to the family. And about trains with rubber wheels.....i feel sorry for the dude who didn't know and tried to kill himself only to suffer much pain and to fork up medical/compensation bills.

well lucky for me.
to know that my country train is as slow as a tank, or even slower.
so there won't be any train suicide here.

because they won't "explode", but will be crunched, slowly....

but few of my ppl are killing themself using a bug spray or a poison

They should install those platform screen doors to avoid that from happening. Many underground/subway stations around the world have been installing it at both new and existing stations since around the 1980s.

I once got nearly run over by a tram in our capital. It was scary like hell, I was 2 seconds away from death, or at least terrible condition.

People mostly slice their wrists, drink till they die, drown, get in a car accident... however most common cause of death is by a knife. (I think.. at least the yellow papers seem to report these most often)

Sad to hear about the suicides. My ex-girlfriend told a few times that she got late from school because someone jumped in front of the train. : (

ero website and dannychoo blog...

we don't have many suicides by trains here. However we have a lot of careless people crossing the tracks not caring where the official crossings are. People make shortcuts or don't want to wait at crossings and sometimes it goes wrong.

The first time I had such an incident close to me was when I went to school by train. I talked to two brothers who also commuted to school a few times. Like a month after I first met them I read in the newspaper that they had crossed the tracks instead of using the bridge and one of them were hit by a non-stopping train. Trains are so heavy (specially this one because it was pulled by a 100+ ton locomotive) so even at low speed it hits really hard and the buffer crushed his skull. I was shocked because it was the first time anybody I met died and in my world kids didn't die.

I think people don't realize how dangerous it is on the tracks because they only consider trains and think it's safe if they can't see any. However the sleepers can be extremely slippery (specially wooden ones) and I know of an incident where a guy stepped on a pointy stone in the ballast so all his weight rested on that point only. It broke his toe.

Well, in Hong Kong, they completely glass door the train rail area, and it only opens when the train doors open. My aunt told me it was to prevent people from suiciding, and obviously it's doing its job. Quite a few stations have these glass doors, but stations at the ends of lines, don't have this. Maybe they need to implement this into the Japanaese Subway.

why in the world is that dude like,leaning in the front of the train.

why would one commit suicide when there are so many alternatives? I am in despair! People committing suicide frequently has left me in despair!

What a horrible way to go, too. Other people use those trains too, you know!

suicide really isn't the best way to solve a problem @_@

Support for the family, is what I say. *shakes head*

those people are crazy probably due to stress and it was a good iea no take those pics danny coz i would have been sick. *induces and starts vomiting*

Well I don't know if I should be concerned or scared with the 55% claiming "YEs" on this poll.

One Valentine's Day last year I was driving home from my sister's house in Seattle and I was crossing the Aurora Bridge. This bridge is a popular place for folks committing suicide as either the cement or the impact if you hit the water will kill you most definitely.

Anyways, it was late at night as Valentine's Day was coming to an end and as I drove by I saw a guy sitting on the railing facing outward towards the water about to jump. I had to drive about a mile down the road before I could turn around because of a huge median but by the time I got back there were about seven police cars surrounding that spot on the bride and two officers were cautiously approaching the man to coax him down. I turned around again to make my way home and they had him in handcuffs.

I don't know how I felt about it. If someone wants to die, should we let them? Or is it our moral obligation to keep them from killing themselves?
