I think, it is fake news and he cannot kill himself.
Re: is ziggy going to kill himself?
I jumped on top of the roof of my moms house while baby sitting and playing hide and seek.I was hella buzzing and It still took me 5 minutes to work up the courage to jump off.The math works out to 200 lbs falling 15 ft.If I did want to cease, jumper is not a option.
PS I totally maybe don't.

You cannot be a serious jumper if you are working out the mechanics and mathematics of how you are going to fall. Never heard of a geeky jumper before.

The last thing you'd want to half-ass, shame so many folks lack attention to detail. You'll fall at 9.8 m/s^2. Work backwards from that, allot yourself enough height. You're gonna do it--do it right. Measure twice, jump once.

Most jumpers rely on visual signs to determine whether a jump would prove successful or not. For example, it is rare for someone to try to jump from a car roof, as the fall would only result in a twisted ankle. On the other hand, if the car is parked next to the external barrier on a multi storey car park, on the top floor, the chances of a more serious injury increase.

Ziggy lives in a trailer park. Chances are he's already been thrown fallen off his roof. You also have to take in the durability factor of Mexicans living in the US. They have already survived starving, dehydration, near drowning, being shot at, and/or traversing the border wall. Like suicide would even work on them... :fear:

A pragmatist, I like the cut of your jib.

I didn't realize they were so hardy. If the apocalypse ever comes, my first stop will be the Home Depot parking lot. Being a trailer park denizen, I'm betting ziggy has access to a meth lab. That ending writes itself.
Re: is ziggy going to kill himself?
You have discovered their one weakness- fire. And they seem to be attempting to build a tolerance through the use of spicy foods. Within the next few generations (like 30 years), they'll be indestructible...

Helium? Whatever happened to the good old, tried-and-true hanging ones-self in the closet? Kids these days... :idunno:
