My condolences to the crowd, the family, and especially the driver/codriver. They may never race again due to the guilt, much like truckers and train engineers that strike and kill people.
Fuuuuuck people who wants out, but does it in ways that affect others. But i get it, they do it to convey some message, often about not being heard.
What an ass.

Its attention seeking the max. Why the fuck else would he run in front of a speeding car in front of hundred of people and cameras??

Killing yourself in any way is drastic and will draw attention to what you've been through, what purpose does involving some unrelated rally driver serve?

The only thing you can really alter is the directness, i.e someone finding your body and being shocked that way rather than having them feel responsible for having killed someone, even though logically you could understand it wasn't your fault. You could jump off a tall building, making no one feel responsible for killing you, but the people on the street below are gonna be freaked when you land.

im sure hes enjoying the attention now

I'm torn on this. On one hand I feel bad for the guy who committed suicide. On the other hand, I don't feel bad for the suicider because he threw the weight of guilt and trauma onto the drivers selfishly.

Are we sure it was suicide? There's idiots who cross the road all the time during rally stages, though usually not in front of the car as its about to pass.
It's always the same string of posts in suicide related "news". You guys act as if suicide is the result of a logical thought process, condemning the [b]dead[/b] guy. [QUOTE=Hugg;52320075]im sure hes enjoying the attention now[/QUOTE] christ

It's mental sickness' fault. Not ours. People being blunt about suicide is not the cause of mental illness and suicidalism. A person has PTSD and sees a war film, gets triggered and suffers a breakdown. Is that the filmmaker's fault for allowing it to happen? Is it the audience's fault for standing by and letting the movie play? No, it's the fault of the mental illness. A person is suicidal, severely depressed. They go on Facepunch.com, and see Sunday_Roast say "What an ass." Their mentally sick brain sees this, and their mental sickness fights against them and makes them believe there are no other options, no way out, makes them actively reject help, and then they decide to jump in front of a truck. Is that Sunday_Roast's fault? Absolutely not. It is the fault of a severely sick mind, a cosmic quirk. Please do not trivialize mental illness to such a shameful degree.
When somebody is suicidal they often don't have the capacity to think about others. I struggle to consider acts like these 'selfish', rather more tragic for everyone involved.

It's awful and depression is horrifying. Killing yourself at the expense of other people is an awful thing to do and yeah, he's an asshole for doing it. Being an apologist for someone who kills themselves at the price of others sanity is pretty fucked up. [QUOTE=Uberpro;52320441]It's always the same string of posts in suicide related "news".

[QUOTE=Noss;52320512]When somebody is suicidal they often don't have the capacity to think about others.

Obviously the guy is also mentally sick, but to the degree that suicidal people cam be judged to be responsible for their actions, this guy appears to be an asshole.
[QUOTE=Uberpro;52320539]He can't be an asshole if he doesn't exist. Are you saying he was an asshole before he committed suicide? I didn't say that?[/QUOTE] who knows, maybe he was an asshole before he died, maybe he was a nice guy who was driven insane But at the end of the day him having killed himself at the cost of others, and in a way that could ruin other peoples lives as well, makes him one.

As for how he will be remembered by others, you honestly think anyone directly affected by this, the driver, the bystanders, his family and friends, will remember him as an asshole? I guess you're free to say what you want here but do you honestly feel it necessary, as a random guy posting on the internet, to condemn this dead person as an asshole? Especially when any of the previously mentioned parties likely don't?
personally im just tired of the discussion that keeps popping up when someone literally kills themself like this. like does it really matter if he was "an asshole" or not? doesnt change the fact that he felt it necessary to end his own life. something is wrong. this person was sick. and whatever led up to this suicide could have been prevented (maybe).
