Story:

 

A man is so depressed about his house being repossessed he commits suicide by cutting off his own head with a chainsaw.

 

Sounds a grim and messy way of taking yourself out of the equation, right? Well, not as grim as it is odd. The dude didn't simply rev up the spinning chain of death and set to hacking off his noggin. No he thought it through and

'plugged it into the mains and put a timer on the socket, then took a cocktail of pills to knock himself out. He rested the saw on his neck and once he passed out, the timer went off – slicing through his neck in an instant. ' from The Sun

Seriously. That's tragic and crackers.
