Saw that on the TV in the break room this morning. Motel 6, at 2AM in Pueblo? Accident, or self inflicted euthanasia?

At least that kid went out with full knowledge of what he was doing, on his own terms and doing something that he loved.
At no age do any of us have a grasp of our own mortality, and it means nothing.
^^^^One of the few people who can really say this.
having had enough patients die in my arms and having regained consciousness in ICU myself I think I have a descent grasp of the fragility of life.
Had a whole bunch of your buddies haul me out of the woods during a ride when I was having serious heart attack symptoms, including the famed "never been this tired feeling". I knew if I sat down I wasn't getting up again. But Fire and Rescue got me and my bike out of the woods. Hooked me up to an EKG and no heart problems. Turned out it was a reaction to a newly released Gout med. One of the side effects is heat attack symptoms. I don't take that med anymore and eventually stopped seeing the Rheumatologist that prescribed it.
As the sun was going down and I was pushing towards the Fire crew, I really thought there was a very good chance I wasn't getting out of the woods that evening. But I was okay with that cause I was in my comfy place out in the woods and had been free of alcohol for a year, something I never thought was possible.
And not to sound like an internet badass, but I no longer have the same fear of death I once did. Of course most addicts and alcoholics scoff at death as a deterrent to the behavior simple because it's a release from their pain. Death, yeah most of the times it not something I want. Life on the other hand is some real goddam scary shit.

The train, which had 12 passenger cars and two engines, was going about 68 miles per hour (110 kph) when it hit her.

Fear is a different thing than understanding.
I occasionally wonder if you exist on a level where you see an order of detail and comprehension that the rest of us are incapable of understanding, or if you have wrapped your self in a reality created from your own delusions?

Missing hiker found dead atop glacier on California mountain originally appeared on abcnews.go.com
A hiker who had gone missing while exploring a mountain in California was later found on top of a glacier, according to authorities.
Alan Stringer, 40, of Huntington Beach, failed to return home on Monday after setting off on Nov. 3 to hike in the area near Bishop, California, about 300 miles north, according to the Inyo County Sheriff's Office.
Stringer, who was described as an "experienced hiker" had not disclosed the details of his hiking plans or the routes he planned to take, but rescue crews used information that he had recently purchased an ice ax and crampons and participated in mountaineering training courses to narrow down the search, authorities said.
Sheriff's deputies located Stringer’s vehicle at North Lake early Tuesday morning and crews began searching for him aerially in the area, according to the sheriff's office.
A forensic analysis of Stringer’s cell phone activity revealed only one call very early Sunday in the Bishop area, before his planned hike. He was only equipped with gear for hiking during the day and had an InReach satellite communication device, but he never activated it, according to the sheriff's office.

After more aerial searches on Wednesday, Stringer was found dead by workers of the Sequoia and Kings National Park on Thursday afternoon at the top of the Darwin glacier, near the base of the notch to go up Mount Darwin, authorities said.
Further information regarding Stringer's death was not immediately available. The Sequoia and Kings National Park is conducting the investigation and the recovery of his body, according to the sheriff's office.
Well that will be an interesting funeral...

If that's the sort of shit you buy thinking to "protect" yourself, your DNA is most likely already damaged.
