If you are doing something inherently dangerous and know it, especially if the risk is wanton and unnecessary, and you die, is that suicide?

The only answer I can truly give you is that God knows your true heart when you die. If your heart is right with God when you die- it does matter how the death occurs you will go to Heaven if you have accepted JC as your savior.
I believe that even in suicide you can get to Heaven. Many don't but I do. Here is why: If a person is a Christian and is mentally disturbed and distraught at the time of suicide- they aren't thinking straight and God knows this. he reads our thoughts and knows everything about us. He can read beyond what we fell and think. That's the same with a self professing hypocritical Christian. Sure they get away with it on earth but they aren't going to make it to heaven if the are a fake christian. God can't be fooled only people can.
I don't think risk taking is suicide unless you are really trying to commit suicide and are just masking it.

What about volunteering for a suicide mission in a war? The volunteer knows it means certain death, but if the volunteer can complete the mission before dying, it could mean winning the war. Would that soldier's actions be considered suicide?
Another example is the girl who stabbed Murat to death during the French Revolution. His death meant a lot less people going to the guillotine. However, she knew that she would have to go to the guillotine for killing him. Would her actions be considered suicide?

No, if it's calculated, driving a car is the most dangerous activity in the United States. Skydiving isn't attempted suicide, neither is rock-climbing, flying a hang glider, climbing Everest, etc.

Suicide is when you willingly take your own life. Even if you know if you do something you might die it would still be an accident..if you didnt mean to do what ever killed you.

Everybody did something must have their reason. If he did it and knew danger to him, he still did it for public good, he will be great. If he did it for fun for himself, he will be silly. If he did it for himself good, he will be desireable.
Sucide is a desire of drift from situation and or something he cannot to face . The next recreation he still repeat again. Karma is not easy to change.

No, because you didn't intend to kill yourself. Suicide requires intent. What you're describing may be characterised as foolish but you haven't suggested that the person actively wishes to die.

I would say No, unless, you are wanting it to kill you. Other than that, I believe it would be just an aweful accident.

It depends on your intent. Suicide entails a desire to kill yourself, so if you have that desire it is suicide.
