Gasoline fire

A 67 year-old man in Florida tried to kill himself by dousing himself with gasoline and setting fire on himself. The result was having his skin charred all over and not death. The pain must have been so bad that he even screamed for neighbors to call 911.

Burning the bedroom

A 41 year-old man in Massachusetts tried to kill himself by setting the bedroom on fire, along with his girlfriend and her son. Fortunately, the girlfriend managed to escape with her son. Unfortunately, the man survived with burns over 85 percent of his body, which will make the rest of his life rather painful. The host of criminal charges leveled against him won't help matters.
