World’s Most Famous and Notorious Suicide Places
by The intentional killing of one’s self or suicide occur for a number of reasons like anxiety, depression, desperation, emotional pressure, financial difficulties, guilt, physical pain and other undesirable reasons.
Based on statistics, suicide is the number two cause of death of many people worldwide. People commit suicide of varied reasons but one unusual thing about suicide is that – they do it in the same places in particular areas.
According to World Health Organization (WHO), over one million people commit suicide every year making it one of the leading causes of death among teenagers and adults under 35. More surprisingly, there are an estimated 10 to 20 million non-fatal attempted suicides every year worldwide.
Famous landmarks from around the world have become known for high levels of suicide attempts. The suicide rate of these places is so high that numerous signs, urging potential victims of suicide to seek help, have been posted.
In Japan, suicide is considered a major problem nationally. It has one of the highest rates of suicides in the world. In the past 10 years, about 30,000 Japanese people committed suicide and the leading causes were depression, social pressure and unemployment due to global financial crisis.
Sea of Trees (Aokigahara)
As we’ve seen in the movies and news worldwide, buildings and bridges are the most favorite sites of people who want to commit suicide. It’s different in Japan, Aokigahara also known as the Sea of Trees, a forest that lies at the base of Mount Fuji, is their favorite suicide site.
It is considered by many as the second most popular suicide location in the world after San Francisco’s Golden Gate Bridge. From the 1950s, about 500 people have committed suicide in this forest. In 1998, 72 dead bodies were found in the area and in 2002, 78 bodies were found.
Golden Gate, San Francisco
The Golden Gate Bridge, which is an iconic landmark of San Francisco, California in the US, is the world’s most popular suicide place. Since its construction in 1937, more than 1,500 had been recorded.

Nobert,
Great article. Suicide is such a tragic event. If people would only stop and think about what they’re doing, and the hurt they’re causing, perhaps they would see that help does exist. Nothing is worth committing suicide over no matter what it is. You did an excellent job writing this article, Nobert. Keep up the great work. It looks like you did quite a bit of research on this. Glad to see you back.

an article that truly caught my attention. i have never known that some of the world’s tourist spots are also some of the world’s known suicide locations. the write-up was short yet full of information. this suicide problems should be addressed.

A very interesting though sad article. I live a couple of miles from Beachy Head in UK and was recently told there was a suicide there almost every week. It does take away from the beauty of the place.

I want to make 2 notes.
I wonder how many suicides were actually murders… and also did anyone else notice the dead goat in the Jonestown pictures?
