H2s is released when drilling for oil, and sometimes it an be deadly. Many have died and it is a standard drill to have alarms and emergency gear for it offshore. In its natural form it is so strong you will literally collapse and die before you even smell it, it can kill instantly.

H2S is quite insidious - yes. When you say it can kill you before you smell it; the human nose can detect the characterustic rotten egg smell at low, non lethal concentrations. However, above a certain threshold, where it becomes quite lethal, you are correct, you can no longer smell it.

How is it even known that this man intentionally drank, rather than being forced by someone else? I just can't fathom anyone wanting to go out that way, even though some have. It just seems beyond insane?!

As for Andrew Gardner ?!! As much as I once wanted to have a career dedicated to justice, it's cases like these why I'm glad I didn't. It's frustrating on this end of the spectrum, knowing this guy was set free. It'd be even more infuriating, dealing with it on a constant basis, having no control & seeing it first hand.

Excellent read, both cases.

I mean is there any remote help for that poor person? per se even if she drank this at a hospital, could they even do something? I'd imagine suicide is the best answer, as it would be in any situation that is utterly and completely hopeless and in which you are suffering greatly. As an example, I am extremely afraid of being buried alive, another great reason to be a concealed carry person. If I ever end up where I am trapped, or something like that, I'll end my own life, as I imagine this person here would've begged for it every second until they finally passed.

What a depressing reason to carry a gun. I'd think using it on your fictional kidnapper would make more sense than offing yourself? Most everyone has their trigger points but I seriously hope suicide wouldn't be in their options.

So you're saying in the case of feeling the tortures of hell for a limited (albeit excruciating) time on earth, you'd rather feel those tortures for all of eternity, by killing yourself & going to hell. Yeah, THAT makes sense

Whether you believe in hell doesn't change the fact that IT'S THERE. It's a horrible thought that anyone would have to suffer by swallowing acid but even more upsetting to think one would choose to have that exact pain & MORE, by choosing suicide, thus - HELL.

Whoa ...what was on this guys conscious to choose taking himself out in such a horrid painful and slow way?! Give me a hotel balcony to jump off of any day over this torture lol.
