Faking your own death.

Let's say things really go bad and you have to fake your own death.

How would you go about it? I've got my idea over Niagara falls. No body to recover.

Bonus points for creativity!

 

Not sure.

How would anybody know that you went over Niagara Falls?

 

there's a thought industry song about this



something about driving a car to a pier on lake michigan and watching it explode while you run away

 

He would dress up a dummy and throw him over...

 

That's what happened with Tina Clayton Lord on One Life to Live. She ended up coming back from the dead. However, Carlo Hesser tied her up and sent her down the falls so it's a different story.

 

erghhhh...I have so turned into the typical Navy wife stereotype *gags*

 

Write a suicide note, Film it and do a switcharoo.

 

Fight with a trucker gone bad. You know me and those truckers, we just don't see eye to eye!

 

I would hypnotise somebody who I knew had cannabillistic tendencies, and get them to confess to murdering and eating me.

 

Well done!

 

Well, if I needed to fake my own death I could go all ... what was that one book where the voodoo people used to harvest live bodies by injecting them with tetrodotoxin from blowfish to fake their own deaths? Well, I could try that. Go all Flatliners style.

Or I could go hardcore, cut off my leg and throw it in a river or something where I'd know it would be found. I would need an accomplice to pull this off however, can't just drive away with one leg bleeding away, and I think most people require an accomplice to fake their own death in real life. You can no longer just blow your look-a-like's head off and hope that your family identifies them as yourself at the morgue thanks to DNA testing and proper forensic evidence.

Staging a plane crash is classic. A ship sinking is more romantic way to go. I think I would consider a ship crash and/or being thrown overboard by a crashing wave and plenty of witnesses around to watch it happen, but little do they know that I had a life vest or something to save me.

 

Or, what would be really cool might be getting sucked out of a plane with a parachute - 007 style.

Yeah, a small bomb goes off on a commercial flight from Hong Kong to LA over the South Pacific and I get sucked out of the plan trying to help a little old lady.

 

hahaha...somebody went over the falls just last week and failed....plus the currents were so strong that he lost his clothes and was rescued NAKED from the COLD winter water....and we know what that means

Yeah, he was the second person to have gone down the falls and survived.

 

todd manning has died MANY more times than her.

and the david who married dorian, he was killed on all my children, rolled up in a carpet, and buried.

funny stuff.

edit: and if I were going to fake my death I would do it in a simple way

 

For some strange reason I can see your fake death involving some kind of Rube Goldberg device

 

I'd just do it for real.

I'd go out to bottlelake forest just out of town, with a spear, carve the odal rune onto the largest tree i could find, carve it on my chest, and then pierce it thru my abdomen as I hang myself from a branch

It would be magnificent

 

Hell, I'm still trying to fake my life.

 

here's a fella who's got lots of neato tips...

 

Take a cherokee up for a spin. since they will not fall for the blown out window a second time..
I was abducted by the alien flying squirrels, but I vanish into the Peruvian jungle..
