metaphorical question.

if i were to throw a toaster into a bath full of water, would it short the electricity in the house.


if answer was yes....

would it work as a suicide method, or would i just end up in the bath with a toaster and all the power shorted?

thanks

Why would you throw your toaster in the bathtub? You'd get the bread all wet, and soggy toast is nasty.

It would short out everything but the water in the bath will be electrified for a small amount of time, you would die if you were already in the bathtub and then dropped it in. Not if you dropped it in then got in.

This is actually a suicide thread, isn't it?

I don't know. Personally, I have never encountered a scenario where bread/bread-like substances mixed well with water. Tastes marvelous with soup, however.

cool. so if i were in the tub, then pulled in the toaster, the short amount of time the water was electrified would be enough to kill me?

Well basically anything that has power running to it, and put in water, will send electricity though the water killing you.

No, being shocked isn't fun. I've done it many many times, I used to live in an old house and the wiring must have been all sorts of ****ed up. If you touched the counter and the fridge at the same time it would electrocute you, same with the stove, and sometimes...I have no idea how, but if you were touching the counter with both hands it would electricute you. Obviously most of these problems occurred in the kitchen. Incidentally I once put my finger in the light socket of the fridge on accident, I was just raiding the fridge and I was holding on to the top inside edge of the fridge, where the light would be, next thing I know my whole body tenses up and I'm stumbling backward...it didn't take me too long to put two and two together. Long story short, I ate some food.

You are kidding, right? Toasters don't generate electricity, they use it and convert it to thermal energy and some light energy. In North America, you're going to get 240 Volts from your outlet straight up your ass.

The real question is wether you wear clothes or not while doing this, i mean who wants to be found dead and naked? but then again, no one goes in the bath fully clothed, thats why if i were to kill myself i wouldn't choose my method.

In all seriousness though, it has been explained in mythbusters, you'll be toast.

Yeah? And? Volts =/= amps. A weak static shock from touching a doorknob or getting out of a car is over 10,000V; 240 isn't even noticeable.

Now, an amp running through you will fry you beyond recognition.

Yes, if you are in the U.K, the toaster will be attached to the mains, so if you get in the bath tub then dopeed the toaster in with you while it was on, then you would almost certainly die.

I hope you are talking hypothetically however, electrocution would be a bad way to die, you are better off taking a fukload of sleeping pills or strong painkillers with a load of booze, getting into a warm bath and slitting your wrists.

But it would be better if you didn't kill yourself unless you are really really suffering in your life.

Ok, let's see what I remember. Basically electricity wants to find the shortest possible route back to the ground, which is why if you touch something electrical with bare feet or whatever, you'll get hurt. It tries to move between areas of potential difference, and your body will act like a conductor. It's most dangerous if the path the electricity takes, is across your chest, since your heart will be screwed up.

If I remember correctly, you only need about 100-200mA to give you fibrillation, which is your heart going spastic = you dead. I don't know how much a toaster would produce in a bathtub, however I'm pretty sure it'll at least have some rather bad effects.

All powerpoints and thus all appliances in the house should be connected to a fuse or a circuit breaker, so when something dangerous happens, e.g. a toaster being dropped in a bathtub, the fuse (a small, thin piece of wire) will melt and break the circuit, or your circuit breaker will mechanically break the circuit. Then all your appliances won't work.

On all electrical appliances with metallic parts able to be touched, they include an earth wire, which redirects all the electricity to a copper rod sticking in the ground to reduce the danger levels (since if you remember me saying before electricity loves ground), so it'd hopefully divert lots of the danger from you in the tub.

So it'll harm you at least a little bit as well as shutting down all your appliances. I think that's about right. My memory kind of sucks though.

so you think just because you want to take your onw life you can leave the mess behind. A real man would get counsilling, taking the easiest route isnt always the best, in australia 1 person commits sucide per hour thats a big ****ing amount when you think we only have 22 million in our country, think about it on a global scale, sure some people probably have reasons to commit sucide most things you can work through with therpy or counsilling.

Counsilling, ya :haha:

Seriously, if you want to kill yourself, then get your affairs in order, write a nice goodbye note, and choose something that won't fail or hurt too much.

If you reallly think its time and there are no other options.

Its sick to think some people would rather see people live in suffering and pain than die peacefully. Not everyone leaves a mess behind, and if the people around you weren't paying enough attention to notice the mess you were in, they don't have the right to bitch about the fact you killed yourself, they obviously didn't care enough to stop you/help you.

On top of the fact it isn't their life and they have no right to have you live in suffering so they can feel good watching you live in pain. No one who loves you would see you do that, and if they did, they wouldn't have the right to ask you to stay :D

Guilt free.

Honestly, with the crap people on UG and everywhere else give suicides, I don't think it'd be worth it. One of us would come find you after you died and laugh at you. Some guy said pain is better than nothing, and that's pretty much true. If you just hold on, then things have the potential to get better, but if you don't, then you're not giving it a chance. Your 16? c'mon man, I'm 17. Things get better, especially if you get out of wherever you are, go to a cheap college away from your old life, and start anew.

Fun fact the water in the bathtub doesn't conduct the electricity but the salts from your body actually does.

metalblaster
10-14-2008, 01:02 PM
that depends, firstly, most washroom plugs are placed at least six feet away from major water sources such as bathtubs/showers so that people cant do things like what youre saying because the chord wouldnt reach (but then thats why they invented extension chords). second, most receptacles (plugs) that could be exposed to water or short cicuit situations have a GFI which causes a circuit to immediatly stop if there is a short. so if you have a GFI outlet (two little test and reset buttons on the plug) then you might get a zap for a second but the plug would blow itself out. if you dont have a gfi then you will get electrocuted (a short circuit can cause a 100 000 amp surge, an normal plug usually has 15 amps in north america(takes 5 miliamps to kill someone)) and your breaker switch in your panel would blow. so if you dont have a GFI plug, and you add an extension chord to your toaster then yes, you will get electrocuted and die, or you will get electrocuted and painfully die hours later in the hospital (this happens alot) or you just might get very very very lucky, but probably not. (oops, didnt see that you didnt specify if you were in the bathtub or not, but you get what im saying)

so ya, your call.

A hairdryer works, thats why you never have a hairdryer near the bath.
Use a hair dryer. Thats why they put the warning labels on it.

yeah dude, do me a favor and don't kill your self.

This could be a pit first...someone telling someone else NOT to kill themselves..

yeah dont kill yourself...
BUT!
IF YOU MUST!
Do it in a cool way, dont toast yourself in the bath! Go out in a blaze of glory, drive off a bridge with a cape on, standing on top of your car, singing Superman by Goldfinger! Flashy

but seriously, dont do it lol

EDIT: Also, huge electric shocks like that tend to cause you to void your bowels. So uh....you would look like an idiot cus youd die in the bath with your pants/bath full of shit. I be the coroners report says "Sexual Misadventure" Died in the bath, covered in shit with a toaster

People like TS seriously need to:

A) Learn that suicide is not a synonymous to cool
B) Go live in Sudan for a week, and then see if their lives are still so terribly bad.

1. No one thinks it's cool.
2. Just because you're born in a better country, doesn't mean you're not allowed to feel sad or depressed.

There's a difference between 'sad or depressed' and committing suicide. And the amount of people who threaten to commit suicide for the attention is totally ridiculous.

you'll be toast.

Am I the only one who picked up on that?

A) You need help if you think that.
B) I hate it when people say that, just because we live in a developed country doesn't mean life isn't tough and we can't be depressed.

And TS, why are you thinking of suicide?

Sorry, I was a tiny bit ambiguous. I didn't mean to suggest that you thought that. I was referring to people in general.

Yeah? And? Volts =/= amps. A weak static shock from touching a doorknob or getting out of a car is over 10,000V; 240 isn't even noticeable.

Now, an amp running through you will fry you beyond recognition.



Dude, you're insane!

Realistically, if you want to commit suicide you will need at least 90 pills, and that would be real hard to down. Alcohol is not supposed to be taken in excessive amounts either, because it helps to throw up the shit you have taken, especially when you take enough to die. Gunshots to the head and jumps off of really, really high buildings are the best bet.

so you think just because you want to take your onw life you can leave the mess behind. A real man would get counsilling, taking the easiest route isnt always the best, in australia 1 person commits sucide per hour thats a big ****ing amount when you think we only have 22 million in our country, think about it on a global scale, sure some people probably have reasons to commit sucide most things you can work through with therpy or counsilling.


TS what is your reason for wanting to kill yourself the way your talking is like your going to.

hmm... I wonder how many hours till all you bastards are dead :p:

It depends on whether the bathtub is grounded or not.

If I remember correctly, if your bathtub is grounded, you will fry by putting a live toaster in the bathtub. Your house would have to be fairly old, as most traditional "bathtubs" are no longer grounded so stupid people cannot injure themselves.

Oh, and don't an hero like that, you shit yourself.

doesnt matter if its grounded or not. there will be a amp surge, and like i said before an amp surge can cause 100 000+ amps to be generated (50mA is the heart fibrillation mark), with that amperage you could have footlong by foot thick peice of compact rubber and it would vaporize in a fraction of a second, think the bathtub will do better? with that much current pretty much anything could act as a conductor, (at least for a very very short amount of time) and in this case a human and a bathtub seem to be the conductors of choice, and humans are ensentially meat, and meat can be fried very easily. (or baked, or cooked or broiled, whatever floats your boat, or not-for-long-boat lol get it)

TS is probably pulling a Mikeh.

If your actually wanting to commit suicide though TS, don't do it, think how much you've gone through already, there is a high chance life will get better as long as you fight for it(not literally fight).

Life may suck the majority of the time, but atleast it's something to do.

You are kidding, right? Toasters don't generate electricity, they use it and convert it to thermal energy and some light energy. In North America, you're going to get 240 Volts from your outlet straight up your ass.

i didn't mean the toaster generates electricity. i meant that you will need an appliance that will produce more electricity than a toaster.. read other peoples comments carefully for the next time, before you sound like a dipshit.

No, not unless you grounded yourself by having one foot out of the bath.

Umm, if you don't want to look like an idiot as you've said, don't kill yourself in the bathtub; after you kill yourself you essentially take a dump.

You don't want to take a dump in the tub, that's just not cool.

dont brake the toaster damn it!

then u will have to do ur toast under the grill.
granted u get better toast as in tastier but its my oven doesnt ping the toast out does it?

therefore more work.
throw the radio in the bath instead. or just a plug in a lead with nothing on the end of it! and put it in ur mouth!

OR even make some toast put THAT in your mouth! :D

No, not unless you grounded yourself by having one foot out of the bath.

still doesnt matter, you'd still get electrocuted, as i've said before, an amp surge can have more than 100 000 amps, and it takes approx. 50 mA to send someone into cardiac fibrillation, most of the time resulting in death and thats not including the severe nerve loss and body burns and other factors which would cause you to die very quickly after the initial electrocution (if not instantaniously) or very slowly and painfully in the hospital (or on your own) mere hours later. so with that much current running through the water, bathtub, plumbing (or whatever else you want to attach to it) and your body, it would conduct itself into everything it comes in contact with (actually for some things they dont even have to be in contact with the conductor), even the porcelain or ceramic or w/e bathtub, it wouldnt pass current through it for long because it would instantly melt/burn/vaporize that object. so having your foot out of the bathtub wont do anything, you would become a temporary conductor, and i say temporary because you wouldnt last long before you become a cluster of charred bones and cartilage, and in that case it's very hard to conduct electricity through that.
