His body was found by police on 5 July, who said his death was not suspicious. Post-mortem tests showed he died of a "complete transection of the neck".

He cut his own head off... with a chain saw?  eeek:

No matter what method you choose to employ surely at some point you would become incapable of carrying out a full decapitation?

Unless he has a home guillotine?

I guess if you were determined to do it you would fix the saw in place, set it going and place your neck on it. Wouldn't take long because after a couple of seconds you would not be able to withdraw but it must hurt like f***!

Some claim that suicide is a coward's way out but frankly it would take more courage than I have.  noooo:

Agreed... I just can't see anybody choosing such a ghastly method of ending it all...  noooo:

Living in Eastleigh, through which just about all South Coast/London bound trains pass, headbutting a 125 might have been an option if it's speed you are looking for. Pills etc seem to me to be likely to go wrong too often to be a reliable method. I guess the chainsaw made a statement for the poor sod and certainly there is no chance of being "saved" by some well meaning soul. Pretty horrible though.

There are far better ways if that is your choice of exit though. As you say all I can assume is that it made some sort of a statement.
