Just after three days after a man tried to kill himself in a crash, two men crashed their car in the same canyon. Despite rolling over and ending up upside down after running off the road, the two men survived. When they were being rescued, they slashed themselves with glass shards and flung blood at the rescue workers exclaiming that they wanted to die.
If this was not a spur of the moment action by two drunken men, then shame on them for being copycats. They could have least tried out something slightly original instead of trying the same failed plan that someone else also tried just a few days ago. And they should have slashed themselves before crashing, not after. There's another black mark for them for acting horribly against the rescue workers that were trying to help them. The workers were people trying to help, so it behooved the two men to respect the workers, even if they didn't have to actively cooperate.
If they were just acting drunk, then shame on them for being disrespectful to everyone who decides to commit suicide after serious consideration. One should not try to take one's own life on a whim.
After their crash, they now have a wrecked car, multiple injuries along their body, and probably a prolonged stay with police officers or mental health professionals. They probably won't be able to try another stunt for awhile.
