Kimbo, you want to masturbate your way to a heart attack? It's your last day on the planet, you can't find someone to help you with that? What if you failed masturbating because of arm cramps from the heart attack and live?!

Poison is SO overrated. Why not just snap the neck quickly, efficiently, and no need to use anything else other then someones pair of hands. Then we get to compost the person!

But does anyone compost the corpse there? That's the real question!

I was too afraid to ask ;-)

Then, Pakabuddy, you can compost or plant a couple of trees, head and tail.

Formaldehyde started to be used in the US Civil War to preserve bodies for their then, long trip home. it is still being used, despite the invention of refrigeration and the fact that it is a known carcinogen that may leak into groundwater.

Pennyroyal essential oil wouldn't be quick or sweet, it would be prolonged and painful (liver and kidney failure). Not sure about foxglove, how quick that would be. I'd probably choose a heart attack over liver failure though (and tea is so much more permaculture than an essential oil ;-) ).

No plant would be easy or quick.
pharmaceuticals are needed; see the banned (in Oz) book The Peaceful Pill by Philip Nitschke, available only from Amazon (for Australians)
Interesting that half the gun deaths in the USA (highest in developed world) are said to be suicides. I wonder what we are doing wrong given that, and the success of anti depressant pharmaceutics ( U.S. sales of antidepressants totaled $11.9 billion in 2007)

The very best thing I have learned for the disposal of a body quickly.. and in a "Green" manner is to plant an apple tree over the corpse. The apple will suck the nutrients it needs from the very marrow of life itself!
