What other ways are there to die?

Question

i'm not going to commit suicide, i just need to kill of character in my piece of fiction.

like by drowning, electric shack, bleeding, lethal injection, hanging etc

i wanted to kill the character by drowning, but it was awkward.

wow, i see alot of final destination stuff xD

its not going to be a great piece of work, so i hardly think anyone will read it other than the teacher who's going to grade my work.

Answer 1

Internal - Various forms of cancer, diabetes, infection, emphysema, flu, heart failure, renal failure, brain aneurysm, etc. -- dying of loneliness or a broken heart could fall in this category too as a sort of death of the psyche that manifests as actual death.

External -- falling to one's death, gunshots, knife wounds, attacks by animals, drowning, death by fire, explosions, machinery accidents, electrocution, earthquake damage, mudslides, hurricanes, typhoons, tsunamis, blizzards, starvation, drug withdrawal.

And suicide. And of course many more ways. But those are a few ideas you might choose to hone in on for the story.

Answer 2

I hope that you are serious about this being for a book and not real life. There is hanging, shooting yourself, overdosing on drugs, leaving the car running in a closed garage, etc... You may want to think of something more original though. Use your imagination. Maybe he/she can jump in front of a train! I think that your character should just ATTEMPT suicide and get help though, that is much more positive. You could show the negative side of suicide and make them try to kill themself and end up a vegetable in an institution instead of dying. I'd have to know more about your book though! Make sure you include the number for the suicide hotline in the front of your fiction work and explain suicide is never a solution.
