Some people are desperate for attention. Nobody does this sort of stuff without an audience (well - maybe some seriously mentally ill people - but they're more likely to simply walk into traffic, or out of a window, than to look for more "exciting" ways to off themselves). Steve "Crocodile Hunter" Irvin, who was killed by a stingray in 2006 was a prime example of that. I have no sympathy for the morons, although obviously I do feel sorry for their families, who are affected the most by their stupidity.
