He died 6 years after the “groundbreaking” book in question was published. He was kind of right about some things, but wrong about a lot of the details.
It is definitely possible to shoot yourself in the head twice while trying to commit suicide. Your skull is actually very dense, and if you don’t know exactly where to point, you could easily fuck it up, but still be conscious enough to finish the job. This infograhic has been around for years and persists because of its inflammatory nature even though it’s incredibly misleading.
I highly recommend you read about this man regardless.
