shotgun placement?

[unfortunate1]

where do people nornally aim when doing this and whats the percentage of failier? Also could one shoot his self in the chest? Also heres a video of a guy offing himself, would it be ideal to aim how he did? https://hoodsite.com/graphic-man-shoots-himself-with-a-shotgun-in-the-head-on-live/

Brain stem is your best bet. Lights in less than a second.

Absolutely don't put it under your chin. Higher risk of failure, and if you do fail, you can "live" and have a huge portion of your face missing.

No way this man has survived, no matter where he aim

 

[GoodPersonEffed]

Many people survive shooting themselves in the chest.

 

[unfortunate1]

what is the success rate of aiming for the brainstem.
isnt ctb by firearm one of the easiest ways out?
isnt

hey definetly died.

Either is fine. Mouth might be safer if the person wanting to ctb is inexperienced with firearms, as the force from the gunshot can cause the firearm to move from its target.

If you hit the brain stem, it's a 99.9999% chance of death. Tough bit is actually hitting it.

why does it have to be tough, cant you just point the barrel behind the ear and boom?

A shotgun with no choke and birdshot would cover a lot of area. When a shotgun fires the spread is very narrow at discharge. Not until we'll after the shot has left the barrel does it widen. An open choke allows the shot to spread sooner and birdshot vs larger shot also aids the spread

Christine Chubbuck aimed between the neck and ear. I dont know the exact details but I'm sure you can find it on Google.

she died but was in critical condition first :/

A slug could work (more efficient than a 9mm or .223) It would need aiming too though

would you say inside the mouth or side of head?

 

[Y78]

I dont know too much where to aim i heard that in mouth is better than side of head
think that forehead is good in the movies thats what whack you instantly.
i would do it in the woods so even if survived you not be treated.

i wish i have a gun.good luck.

 

[unfortunate1]

so aim it up or down in the mouth?

12 guage shotgun deep in mouth pointed slightly upwards. 00 buckshot, tho it hardly matters what shell you use. Chances of failure virtually nil. I'll combine it with poison though to be failsafe. Outdoors so no mess. To be double failsafe do it on edge of cliff.

More like a fraction of a microsecond. You're definitely right about under chin. Side of head etc.too. Too much chance of aiming wrong or flinching.

Because you might flinch, or be unable to control the firearm. If you've never used a firearm before, it can be like controlling a wild animal. You could potentially flail a little bit, and skim the back of your head. Putting the gun in the mouth reduces the chance of failing.
