On sunday evening, a man from Zagorz / Poland broadcasted a livestream of his suicide after his birthday party.
The guy, who turned 27 the day before, was described as being depressed and acting strange. He told friends that he had a surprise prepared for his birthday party but wouldn’t tell what it was when asked.
According to reports he logged in to a chatroom on Interia.pl, a polish web-portal, started broadcasting the videostream and hanged himself in front of the camera. One chatter immediately alerted the police reporting that there is a user “hanging motionless and in unnatural position” in front of his cam.
As the police arrived on the scene they found the man’s corpse hanging from a pipe. At that time his parents, who live in the same house, were sleeping and completely unaware of what happened. The unnamed man’s motive is still unclear as he didn’t leave a suicide note.
A similar case happened November last year where a 19 year old guy streamed his death caused by an overdose of prescription drugs live on the video-site justin.tv.
Condolences go to his friends and family.
