Thats sad man makes me sick to know people will actually watch something like that and do nothing.

[inadub]

Snuff film? i wont even watch it.. just based on title alone..

[Prime-VR]

I don't get people. All this kid did was take the easy way out. I have NO respect for anyone who kills them selves.

 

 

[[-VR-] Tool_Minion]

Won't watch it either.

 

Is this something we even need to proliferate by having a link?

[Prime-VR]

There is nothing to watch. It is just an article about it.

Permanent solution to a temporary problem. Sad he didn't have friends around to help.

No video, but here is the article.

 

(AGI) - Rome, 21 Nov. He turned on his webcam, connected to a video-sharing site and committed suicide in front of 1,500 disbelieving viewers. The event took place in Florida, in Broward county. Abraham K. Biggs, 19 years old, had announced on Wednesday that he was planning to kill himself, posting a message on a US forum (bodybuilding.com). No-one believed him, in fact many internet users encouraged him to do it. Sadly, however, he was serious. Yesterday, he connected to Justin.tv, a webcam streaming site, took some pills and lay on his bed, his back turned to the webcam. A few hours passed before other users of the site realised that he was no longer breathing.

Someone managed to work out where he was and contacted the local police. When the agents arrived on the scene, the young boy was already dead. The webcam, still streaming, showed four policemen entering the room and checking his pulse. Then, everything went black. The county medical examiner confirmed his decease and the police opened an inquest into the cause of death. Abraham, who was enrolled on the site Justin.tv with the username 'Feel like Ecstasy' (ndr), had explained that he was going to commit suicide on bodybuilding.com, including details of the drugs he was planning on taking. I am a shi he wrote, I have dissapointed and I feel like I will never improve. I love a girl and I know Im not good enough for her. Many users had responded to his post with insults, and they encouraged him to put his suggestion into practice. After his death, many of the users deleted their offensive messages from the website.

The administrator of the website Justin.tv, Michael Seibel commented we are sorry that this has happened and we respect the privacy of who sent the video and of his family, announcing moreover that the video had been removed from the site. Events of this kind are not new to the internet. In Japan in recent years several cases have been recorded, whilst in the UK last year a 42 year old man from Telford, Kevin Whitrick, hung himself during a chat in which he had been insulted by various site users.

Yeah- Good lesson for those who flame folks or talk shit. Its NOT worth it it MOVE ON.

[DevilHawk34]

The worse think about it was people telling him to do it, that's one thing you don't play with period. You don't know everyone's state of mind.

The sad part is that some of those clowns that egged him on will probably have no remorse about it. Maybe for a day or so, but then they'll probably never think about it again.

Thats complete bullshit Prime. For you to say something like that..... Thats the most aggravating and ignorant thing I have ever heard.

[Red0ctobeR]

I don't understand how that is ignorance. I would say the same thing. I have been at that point in my life once. If I would look back at myself and were standing right there. I would say you are pathetic. That is no solution. That is the end nothing more. When I went to college I knew 4 people that killed themselves personally. Each one I felt remorse for because I had no idea, but they didn't reach out to anyone. They didn't seek any help.

 

It looks like this guy did scream out for help, but all he got were deucebags. it is a shame.
