                    I was watching the suicide rate chart yesterday and was surprised to see that Finland (or some of the other Scandinavian countries) was not topping the chart.

                    Also interesting is that in most countries according to statistics men are more likely to off themselves than women with the notable exceptions of China and Turkey where women are mole likely to committ suicide.

                    The chart:

                      "Suicide rate in Hungary (1950-2005), 1983: 45.3 suicides per 100,000 people (the highest rate in recorded human history.)"

                      Next to it is a table with three countries surpassing that at the moment.
                      Someone should fix the caption.

                            Er, no. Try reading the table again.

                              No. I had a conversion with a colleague and suicides somehow came up as a topic. IIRC we talked about a System Of A Dawn song called "Chop Suey". That is when I decide to check the suicide rate chart.
