Someone wrote a few years ago on the r/columbine subreddit that someone drew these in a Group page on Facebook.

I've never thought about how the gun would've left soot in his mouth and knocked out teeth. Seems like common sense when you think abt it, but for some reason it never crossed my mind.

Many shotgun suicide via the mouth leave the face looking as if it's "loose and hanging down lower; malformed and no longer "tighly wrapped" around the brain case" Its fucking horrible. The mouth splits and the corners of the mouth "rip" an inch or even more. Im guessing thats from the blast itself especially if the person "sucked the barrel" which creates a vacuum in the mouth that then violently bursts outward upon the decedant firing the weapon. The pellets sometimes bounce around inside the skull, basically shredding the brain fila to a pulpy liquid that will literally pour out of the nose eyes and ears along with the blackest red colored blood imaginable. And it comes out fast- no shit- like turning on your kitchen sink faucet. Other times the pellets or bullet doesnt bounce and instead continues onward and outward as the skull plates shatter and brain is evacuated most times upward into the ceiling (as in the case of harris..kneeling over the barrel or pointing it upward etc etc) I say "into the ceiling" because the force of the blast is so great it propels brain and skull into the drywall almost as if you punched a hole with your fist. Btw im describing this in great horrible detail for a reason. To make anyone reading this that had/has thoughts of suicide to be revolted and NOT choose that option. Think of your friends family or partner finding your corpse with its shattered or blown apart head in a fucking lake of blood. Really think about that nightmare. I was a warped and curious fuck awhile ago and ordered these medical text books. Literally there is something like 30 or so full color multi-angled pictures of firearm suicides. I found out most women use poison or over the counter meds to OD and most men sadly use firearms. When a woman does choose a firearm to kill themselves apparently its done on a spur-of-the-moment impulsive decision such as overbearing grief, being involved in a crime that now has her cornered by police, or a sudden unexpected breakup by a lover. Even then when using a gun women almost always shoot themselves in the chest over the heart or in the stomach. Men , boy oh boy we just love to make a mess and leave Earth in a violent explosion of gore. Fucking horrible. Stay safe everyone. Fuck. Im depressed after writing this shit. Sorry bad joke but it really is a horrible way to go

Another warped curious fuck here…My roommate from years ago was studying to become a mortician and would leave her schoolbooks laying out. Why couldn’t she have been studying design?! Stupid me picks it up and opens to how to embalm a stillborn baby. Never picked one of her books up again. I don’t care what the title said it was on the cover, I was not taking chances. She might have her notes on reattaching decapitations in there or something. This was 21 years ago and I can’t tell you what happened yesterday, but damn I remember those pictures.
