This happened about 37 years ago and it puts things into perspective for me regarding life after death.
Not to be flip, but this is one of the best damn stories I've ever read on the internet.

Thanks for the support. There might be some interesting points regarding life and death in this particular case.Shocked  Obviously, he had read something + was deeply interested in the subject but whatever ritual he was trying to use was so hopelessly screwed up in his mind/interpretation as to be more tragic + stupied than ritualistic, but he was definitely responding to something he had read + believed. Because he was human he could have easily delude himself into believing that his sacrifice would grant him the Philosophers Stone, so to speak, in his sacrifice, but trusting his life to some ritual in a book is pretty delusional & in the end, his act was not a rational one at all.Ouch
