http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/26641652/ A teenage girl in central India killed herself on Wednesday after being traumatized by media reports that a "Big Bang" experiment in Europe could bring about the end of the world, her father said. The 16-year old girl from the state of Madhya Pradesh drank pesticide and was rushed to the hospital but later died, police said. Her father, identified on local television as Biharilal, said that his daughter, Chayya, killed herself after watching doomsday predictions made on Indian news programs.

Being half Indian, I'm familiar with the Indian press/public's tendency to overdramatize things... usually it's a harmless tendency, but then things like this happen. :?

She most likely had mental health problems, there's no logic behind killing yourself to stop yourself from dieing.

The thing is, whatever experiment they are talking about, it wont lead to the end of the world.... Unless there was a nuclear explosive nearby. That is the funny thing, we have all these nukes that can basically destroy the world, over and over again, yet not one is truley worried about thaht fact.

That's like saying you should let zombies eat you alive rather than shoot yourself in the head somewhere quiet.

Yea, but maybe she thought their might be a lot of pain getting killed by the black hole if there would be one. It's sad...espcially if we don't die which I totally doubt we will. I'm sure Y2K caused some to commit suicide.

Edit:I'm not saying it is...I don't even think we know that :D But I'm sure it isn't common knowledge..though if she killed herself over it she might've seen that there is a lot of pain in it.

I wouldn't suicide but the thought of it is daunting, especially if you thought it would actually happen.

She probably thought it would be better for her to kill her self, because then she knows when she would die..

If she thought the LHC is dangerous, she may have thought it can kill her at any time.
So maybe that drove her over the edge..

Dying in a black hole would kick ass. First, you get torn in half, then again, then again, and again and again, and again, and again,

If you stand in between the colision - probably. Hell just being inside it when the magnets are on would probably blow a person to bits.

That's not the same thing. If you are pulled into a tornado you don't die instantly as most people are killed by flying debris inside the tornado or by being thrown hundreds of feet into the air and hitting the ground. Also you have to experience the derailed coaster because you don't die instantly once it derails. A black hole would destroy the earth in the blink of an eye so you wouldn't even have time to panic.

Not likely... just crushed quickly by intense gravitational pull which increases exponentially the closer to the middle you are.

What I am getting at is the illusion of control people like to have with their own lives.

Its called Physics look into it.. Infact you would die before you even reached the event horizon or the matter flying around before it.. The gravity is so intense it will kill you before you get any where close to the black hole.

It's a pretty well known fact thanks to physics so you can keep your snarky remarks to yourself, thank you.
