Michèle Causse Assisted suicide scene from Documentary (2010)

She went out like a boss, demanding more and more choclate, not a glimpse of fear

As controversial as assisted suicide might be, I think it’s safe to say that if we knew our time was coming to an end…most of us would want to go out this way. Under our own terms, in the company of friends/family and a pain free death.

Great post!

Man, idk why this hit me so hard but it did, i guess im way too used to seeing people die in gory ways that this is the video that actually shocks me :D

I can’t tell you how much this actually helps me mentally with something similar to this happening to my grandpa and he kept telling us “thank you, I need this rest” except instead of the chocolate that Mf was wolfing down cookies left and right lmao

This is how I hope to go, probably how many others would prefer as well. Surrounded by the people that matter most to me, at the end of a long and happy life. Just being able to drift of to sleep and finish my part in the world. Sounds very peaceful.

While I do hope I can say this without sparking a political discussion, I really think there would be some objective merit in showing this video, as well as some of the more... unnatural... ones on here, to anyone who is against assisted suicide. The peace and cozy-ness of this video, compared with the sheer insanity that constitutes the rest of this site, really provides a contrast that sent shivers down my spine. I literally came here from the ms. Pacman video.

I really don't want to have to leave this world depressed out of my mind looking for a gun to off my self, slowly withering away from a chronic illness or, god forbid, as one of them human ragdolls flying about the highways after being hit by a drunk driver. When It's my time to go, I want to go like this.

I want that drink

Looks like she was fighting to stay awake a bit longer

Ive watched this documentary. Its beatiful. She was dealing with so much pain and was ready to go. She was a strong woman throughout her end.

"We don't understand each other but there's no time left"

Beautiful way to go

For those curious, the organization Dignitas gives Antiemetic drugs, which prevent vomiting, and 30 minutes later provide the person with 15+ grams of Pentobarbital dissolved in water.

Pentobarbital is a strong sedative, naturally given in a lethal dose in this case. It allows for a peaceful and painless death, where you simply fall asleep and never wake up.

This is their procedure for almost all assisted suicides, including that of Michèle Causse.

What is the drink?

I will go out like this if I ever get diagnosed with Alzheimer's

This is beautiful. Accepting death gracefully

damn my eyes are watery

wtf is that haircut Nikki is sporting

That sounds a lot better than succumbing to an illness or getting hit by a bus or something. The video has a peacefulness to it, and its not unlike many other videos on this site.

I rather watch someone explode on impact than watch something like this.

Shit is so sad even though she wanted it

i love her attitude about the situation

wanted this yesterday

For those who want to watch the entire documentary (with English subtitles): Dignitas - La Mort Sur Ordonnance

My neighbor went like this. My mother took care of her for 25 years after my grandma died, and saw her as a newfound mom. It's sad, but it's damn peaceful and dignifying way to go. No need for senseless suffering. This is definitely the way i want to go if i see that i'm no longer capable of living a life with dignity.

Is it strange I want to see more videos like this where the person drinks the drug and passes away while on camera?

I keep coming back to this video. She's such stro g woman. But knows her time is done. also the nurse that facilitates it is an angel. Ive watched this whole documentary and it's amazing.

A really beautiful way to go. May we all get such a peaceful death in the comfort of our loved ones. Or at least make sure it’s on film for the sub.

Finally not someone getting their brains blown out, just peace

This was wild .. i know the feeling of wanting to go. Ive contemplated suicide twice with a failed attempt.. i was in a very dark bad place. . . Doing a bit better now.. but it just hits different when you can relate... dont know why im even saying this on here . But hey just being honest yo. . .

After all the people I've seen die in different and even horrendous ways, This felt different, but at least she left happy and at peace.

The dichotomy of watching this calm, serene and emotional death, then immediately followed by someone screaming and being tortured in the next video is very surreal hahaha
