In 1993 the north tower of the WTC was bombed. One of the co-conspirators was caught when we returned to the Ryder office to report that his van was stolen and he wanted his deposit back.

Gary webb wrote a series of articles about the CIA and crack and then committed suicide by shooting himself in the head twice

Lots of people manage in inflict nonfatal wounds to their heads before they manage to hit home. I think this came up earlier in the thread in fact, somebody posted an account of a guy who shot himself several times with a shotgun before it finally worked.

Do not kill yourself with a gun. It is messy and unreliable. There are much better ways to kill yourself.

One of the first shock images i ever saw was rotten.com's famous motorcycle.jpg which was purportedly an attempted shotgun suicide and that dude looked alive to me.

Did we talk about this guy already? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Malloy

An apparently pretty hardcore alcoholic, a bar owner and co-conspirators took out a life insurance policy on this guy and gave him an unlimited tab, hoping he'd drink himself to death. When that didn't happen, they get him poisoned oysters, made him drinks with methanol, fed him metal objects, rat poison, glycol, all sorts of nasty poo poo, but each time he lived. They hit him with a car, and tried to freeze him to death. He didn't die until the poisoned him with gas, and were eventually caught.

A dude I went to high school with shot himself in the head and didn't die; he then realized he'd forgotten to write a suicide note so wrapped a towel around his head, scribbled out a quick note, then succeeded with the second shot.

A girl at the high school where my uncle taught shot herself with a .22. She managed to crawl all over the house for almost an hour, smearing blood and brains everywhere, until she actually succumbed.

They were caught because the conspirators started telling the story at bars

Timothy McVeigh got caught very quickly during an ordinary traffic stop because he was driving in Oklahoma that afternoon in a car with no license plate. I'm sure they would have found him fast anyway though.

Reminds me of that video where the two woman would argue over whos fault it was they got caught for murdering a bunch of homeless guys. They would both cuss and blame each other in loud whispers every time the cops would leave the interview room.. somehow completely failing to see the enormous camera set up facing them less than a meter away. Cops just left them to it at the end.

When I was young I remember it being a pretty big news story in my area that some teenager was loving around with a nail gun and accidentally put one into his skull. It apparently hurt so bad the kid thought he was going to die, so he just started firing them off into his skull to try and finish himself off. He ended up with 7 nails lodged in various parts of his skull but still didn't die. A family member found him like an hour later and took him to the hospital. He lived, but I have no idea how hosed up he was from it.

Jesus christ

I was walking with a bunch of idiots through our wood shop in high school, and one of them randomly grabs a nailgun, points it out the open garage door of the building and fires a few times. He missed the top of someone's head who was walking across the street by probably less than an inch.

I knew a guy who killed himself with an M-16 in Afghanistan and there were four bullet holes in the wall above his bunk. His door was locked from the inside, so nobody else could have been there, but one hole was a little farther away from the other three. Apparently the first round didn't do it, so he set it on 3-round burst for the second try.

A cousin sat on her porch and shot herself but didn't die. Instead of her husband finding her, her son came home first and discovered barely-alive but very gruesomely wounded mom who managed to croak out 'this is better for everyone' and then dying.
