The man filmed his hanging live on Facebook
A man has shocked many by live streaming his own suicide on
Facebook. The incident occured on Tuesday, September 6th in Thailand.
According to ThairathTV, Charoen Chimphuk was found dead inside an
apartment in Soi Phaholyothin, Bangkok, the morning after he filmed
himself hanging in a streaming video which ran for about 30 minutes.
His devastated wife, Sangrawee Omdee, 24, told police she rushed to
the residence after seeing the 30-year-old was preparing to hang
himself through the live broadcast streamed via his personal account on
11:46pm.
Titled “Just a man going to die,” the live video showed a
calm Charoen making preparations for about 19 minutes to hang himself
from a ceiling fan. He is mostly silent the entire time apart from some
comments about his family.
“I have nothing left,” he says at one point.
His body remains suspended motionless for another dozen minutes or
so. The video is still available but a content warning had been added by
Facebook by Tuesday afternoon.
“His wife was not suspicious about his death and believes it was a suicide,” said police Col. Amnat Intharasuan of Bang Khen Police Station.
“Though the case is being investigated by the police’s office of forensic science, as it must be.”
Sangrawee told police she has lived with Charoen for five years,
and the two have a 3-year-old daughter. The motive for his suicide
might be because the wife had recently found out he was having an affair
with another woman, so she had left him.
