Where you ask are the ten most inviting places to commit suicide? Well sit back and let us be your suicidal travel agency and find the most desirable jump-off points in the world.
Aokigahara
LOCATION: Mount Fuji, Japan
BODY COUNT: Countless
(approx. 70 per year)
DESCRIPTION: Aokigahara also known as the Sea of Trees is a forest that lies at the base of Mount Fuji in Japan. The caverns found in this forest are rocky and ice-covered, even during summertime. It is an old forest reportedly haunted by many legends of monsters, ghosts, and goblins, which add to its sinister reputation.
RETARD TRIVIA: The bodies are brought down to the station, where a spare room is kept especially for such occasions. In this room are two beds: one for the corpse and one for someone to sleep next to the body for the first night. There is an annual search, consisting of a small army of police, volunteers and attendant journalists, began in 1970.
Places to Die - Golden Gate Bridge
LOCATION: San Francisco, California
BODY COUNT: Over 1,500
(approx. 30 per year)
DESCRIPTION: The Golden Gate Bridge had the longest suspension bridge span in the world when it was completed in 1937 and has become an internationally recognized symbol of San Francisco and California. As part of both U.S. Route 101 and State Route 1, it connects the city of San Francisco on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula to Marin County.
RETARD TRIVIA: What makes the Golden Gate Bridge the top suicide bridge in the world is that it provides literally no barriers to suicidal impulses. The bridge also has, as Friend puts it, a "fatal grandeur" to it that attracts emotionally distraught people who seek out what they conceive of as a beautiful and even romantic death.
Places to Die - Niagara Falls
LOCATION: Ontario Canada / New York border
BODY COUNT: 2,780 known
(approx. 23 per year)
DESCRIPTION: Niagara Falls are massive waterfalls on the Niagara River, straddling the international border separating the Canadian province of Ontario and the U.S. state of New York. The massive 100 foot falls have over 3,600 feet of falls in two sections.
RETARD TRIVIA: The ladies love the Niagara Falls: 59 percent of the jumpers are male and 41 percent female, which is highly unusual, in that female suicides account for just 24 percent of the nationwide total.
Places to Die - Beachy Head
LOCATION: East Sussex, England, United Kingdom
BODY COUNT: About 500 suicides
(approx. 20 per year)
DESCRIPTION: Beachy Head is a chalk headland on the south coast of England, close to the town of Eastbourne in the county of East Sussex. The cliff there is the highest chalk sea cliff in Britain, rising to 162 m (530 ft) above sea level.
RETARD TRIVIA: A British Coastguard crew got the scare of a lifetime Monday when they were attempting to rescue a man who had reportedly jumped from an East Sussex “suicide spot” and narrowly missed being crushed by a car as it drove off the same 500 foot cliff and crashed on the rocks below only a few yards away.

A 1997 report from the Schizophrenia Society of Ontario cited the average of “one person jumping from the bridge every 22 days”.
