Suicide Crucifixion

Just can't make this stuff up:

A Hartland man was treated at a Pittsfield hospital after he nailed himself to a cross. The 23-year-old man apparently was trying to commit suicide Thursday evening in his living room.

The man took two pieces of wood, nailed them together in the form of a cross and placed them on the floor. He attached a suicide sign to the wood and then proceeded to nail one of his hands to the makeshift cross using a 14-penny nail and a hammer.

"When he realized that he was unable to nail his other hand to the board, he called 911," [Lt.] Boucher said.

Little help, here...

It was unclear whether the man was seeking assistance for his injury or help in nailing down his other hand.

A journalist with a dark sense of humor. Impressive.

Was he hoping the magic death ferry would come and kill him? The cross an’t magic and you not going to bleed to death with one hole in your hand lying on the floor of your air conditioned living room. Come on dude, buy a freakin’ gun wait the 4 days or whatever and kill your self like a man! Or…. fly down here, I’d be happy to pin you up somewhere in the Everglades you could die all old skool, and for the love of Jesus, use Nine Inch Nails not those wusse 14-penny tacs. Boy is like a money trying to pork a football.
