That sounds like a nice way too go, I think I'll still jump out of a airplane crashing in the middle of broadway. I'm gonna go out making headlines.

Wow. Can you imagine a more beautiful way to take your own life? Euphoric, gazing out at all of creation, visible as far as your eyes can see, never worrying about whether it will hurt, because you'll have no idea it's happening, just a blissful, serene rush into oblivion. Seeing the world rush by you, as you rushed through it, coming to a quite peaceful end. Imagine happily screaming, waving your arms in the air, coming to terms with both your own mortality and the infinite beauty of things around you...and letting that be your last conscious thought. If there was ever a way to go, that would be it.
Have you ever actually ridden a roller coaster?
Hundreds of them, hundreds of times. We used to buy season passes, and go most weekends in the summer and fall, as a group of friends. That exhilarant feel as you step off of a really good coaster, the one that makes you want to to it again...oh yes. One of my favorite staples of 'things to do when you move to new areas'. Why?

I wouldn't, I'd just pack explosives into a chair and fire myself at a wall at a couple hundred miles per hour, it'd be quicker

messier but far less weird and drawn out.

Oh God, where to begin....

Will people go up one at a time or together? Since this is an amusement park ride, will there be special discount days? Will they have cameras set up to take your picture for your next of kin? Will they sell T-shirts and hats and stuff? Who are they gonna get to pull the bodies out of the car once they're dead? Can you get the mortician to permanently affix that "YEARRRRRGH!" look on your face for the wake?

I see a number of people saying how they'd wanna go out, so I might as well chime in. I guess if I can't die with family and friends near by, the way I'd want to go out is giving my life for a cause. You know, making the ultimate sacrifice for something I value or for people I care about. That way I'd die knowing I was making a final difference, doing something that would benefit others and was doing something that would help ensure I was remembered in this life as well as the next.

Ok now my choice of "I'm gonna kill you slow or you kill yours self" got a new even better choice:

Death by roller-coaster!

(my previous would been a big bang!)

But some how I also find it somewhat disturbing,.. building a machine just to kill yourself, o well humans are great at doing it so why not. (thinking of stuff like nukes, H-bombs, bigger better guns...)

It's interesting, but I prefer to leave the ethical musing to the time when someone actually tries to construct one. My feelings are mixed to be honest, because I'm pretty anti-suicide. Truthfully I think the controls that would have to be put on something like this for Euthenasia would prevent it from ever being profitable, so the odds of finding investors strike me as being minimal.

My first thought however is that this might make an interesting way for some gadget obssessed villain like Arcade or The Joker to kill people in comics. The reality of construction never seems to come into play in comic book logic. :)

Who else instantly thought this was a ride straight from Futurama?

Like suicide booths, but in a suicide themepark.

Really? I think as suicide methods go it is kind of awesome, it reminds me of the way I would chose to go (off a snow covered cliff on a rocket propelled hospital trolley, possibly with a cape and probably pumped up on some drugs to ease any pain on impact).
Oh wow. Both these methods are fucking awesome. And beats a bullet to the head any day. Hell, if they could manage to get this ride made relatively cheap...I'd end my life this way. Fuck yeah.

"....and at the end of the ride, your loved ones have the option of purchasing prints of your final moments in varying sizes.

We also have T-shirts and keychains."

a lot of people on here don't seem to understand that this only exists in a 1:1500 scale model and doesn't actually exist... And probably never will exist. And if it does exist I doubt it'd ever be open to the 'general public' and only to those with terminal illnesses and have a limited time to live anyway.

This is profoundly stupid. In the few places where you are allowed to end your life, it's only if you're terminally ill. At that point, a normal roller coaster could probable kill them, or being removed from life support for an extended length of time. Couldn't you have the same effect by over dosing them on extacy?

Do you think adding a ramp would be a bit much?

edit- to my idea I mean.
