Install a booth with a vr headset like
oculus rift, simulating what it would be
like to die there. After the simulation,
offer information about seeking help if
needed.
This will be popular with tourist, and
hopefully people who wants to kill themselves

Anywhere on the Tobu Tojo train line north of Tokyo, people jumping under the train was the major cause of delay of morning classes, as the train line stops to pick up the bits. |

I think this Idea will backfire. A number of people
stop themselves from committing suicide because
they can't quite work up the nerve to go through
with it. A simulation won't give the user the pain at
the end of the simulation, but could ease the fear of
heights, or vertigo .... |

I think there would be some merit in a book that
documents only the unfeasible/painful means of
killing oneself. I had a rough moment a few months
ago, and thought eating a bottle of tylenol might fix
the situation. Im glad i didn't because it would have
taken 6 days and a liver failure to do the trick. |

Every first-person-shooter has this non-option: get into the game and all of a sudden <bam>. |

What if the suicides don't want to be smulated? |
|
| |
Well, that's their progative. |

"Don't think of an elephant!" |

Ok, what image flickered in your mind? |
|
| |
Visualization of a situation, even if negative, will
just further reinforce that brain pattern. |
|
| |
How about the simulator plus a counseling booth
manned 24/7 right there? |

I estmate that by smulated you meant simulated. |
|
