The self-inflicted version of Accidental Murder: a character unintentionally kills themself, typically by accident but also by a plan gone awry. A common portrayal of this trope is when a character who was planning on killing themself changes their mind at the last minute, only for it either to be too late (they already swallowed the lethal dose of medicine and can't throw it back up) or for an accident to occur (stepping out of a tub holding a toaster only to slip on some water and fall right back in). In both cases, these suicides are also examples of Death by Irony, with the latter in particular being mined as a source of Black Comedy in which the victims either have a deathgrip on the Idiot Ball or are just simply Too Dumb to Live. Engaging in risky behavior that can lead to one killing themself if not done correctly, like autoerotic asphyxiation is another way this trope has been used. Reckless Gun Usage in particular has also claimed more than its share of accidental victims. Might be from Fear-Induced Idiocy. A variant of this trope exists in which a character (usually The Chessmaster) did in fact want to kill themselves, typically as part of a Death Is the Only Option gambit or Suicide, Not Murder scheme. However, they had no intention of staying dead for too long. Unlucky for them, something goes wrong and they remain dead as a doornail. If they were also a villain, then Hoist by His Own Petard and Karmic Death are likely in full effect. A fatal accident simply happening to a character is not enough to be this trope. The character must have had some hand in their own demise. Can overlap with Accident, Not Murder. Contrast Suicide, Not Accident and Bungled Suicide, both of which are inversions. Also contrast Make It Look Like an Accident, in which a character murders another, but tries to stage it as a freak accident. If they try to stage it as a suicide, then it's Never Suicide. Murder by Suicide and its subtropes are closely related, however, the key difference is that Murder by Suicide covers situations where someone or something else coerces, compels, or tricks a character into killing themself (all examples like this should be listed there). Given that Death is Cheap in most video games as a game mechanic, avoid adding video game examples in which the death is incidental to the game itself, i.e. just the fact that the player character or an AI controlled teammate can unintentionally kill themselves. Video game examples should either be part of the narrative/story or specifically lampshaded in-game. No Real Life Examples, Please! As this is a Death Trope, unmarked spoilers abound. Beware. |

Desperate Housewives: After being exposed as a murderer in Season 2, George Williams swallows a deadly dose of sleeping pills. However, he didn't actually intend to die; he was expecting his ex-fiancee Bree Van de Kamp to save him by calling for an ambulance. Unfortunately for him, she chooses not to and lets him die, letting everyone believe that he committed suicide. Still in Season 2, hitman Curtis Monroe (Michael Ironside) is hired to kill Caleb Applewhite. When descending the stairs to Caleb's room, he falls through the wooden stairs and his gun unloads in his own chest, killing him. |

In the French film Delicatessen, Aurore spends the entire movie trying to kill herself, but her attempts are always thwarted leading her to get more and more elaborate with her attempts until she's building full-on Death Traps. Her final one includes a combination of swallowing pills while facing a gun set to go off, while she stands with her neck in a noose, with the gas on and a lit Molotov cocktail just under her. Subverting all expectations, she only dies because her husband, not knowing what she's doing, enters the room and turns on the light, igniting the gas and blowing them both up in the process, making this an Accidental Murder and Accidental Suicide twofer. | |

CSI: NY: At least twice. In the season 3 episode "Cold Reveal", the team investigates the death of Toby Finch, who was found dead in a church with angel wings strapped to his back after seemingly falling from the sky. Initially, Toby's friend and girlfriend are seen as suspects but further investigation reveals what really happened. Toby, obsessed with becoming internet famous, drunkenly attempted to catapult himself off a roof, expecting that his artificial angel wings would help him soar across the sky like a hang glider. To ensure this, he pre-cut the bungee cords on his safety harness, thinking that the force of the catapult would fully disconnect them. Unfortunately, they held faster than he expected, giving him such severe whiplash that his neck snapped in two places, killing him before he even fell through the church's paned window. Mac surmises that the only crime committed was the victim's misdirected ambition. In the season one episode "The Fall", the crime scene investigators look into the death of Melvin Heckman, a Fat Bastard movie producer, who was apparently pushed from his apartment's balcony. After the investigation goes through a series of people who all had an axe to grind with him for ruining their lives, the team finally discovers that Heckman had been on the balcony eating chocolates and simply lost his balance, falling to his death. |

The Simpsons: "Homer's Enemy" is all about how Frank Grimes is driven insane trying to figure out how Too Dumb to Live Homer managed to succeed while he's had to struggle through life. Eventually, Frank cracks and starts acting like Homer, doing reckless things and shrugging off the consequences because "I'm Homer Simpson!" It all leads to him electrocuting himself by disobeying the "Do not handle without gloves" sign at a panel with electrical cables. | |

In Board Game Online, death comes fast and often and is a key component of getting through the game. Naturally, it's possible to accidentally kill yourself through certain actions. A common example is when one player pulls a gun on another player. If the target has Hypno Goggles, they can use them during the target selection phase and make the shooter shoot himself instead. Interestingly, the game did not start off with Death is Cheap, as it used to be extremely difficult or expensive to prevent dying despite how frequently it came. Later updates made this much more forgiving. | |

King of the Hill: In "High Anxiety", this is ultimately the answer to the murder of Debbie Grund, Buck Strickland's former mistress. Debbie wanted to kill Buck for going back to his wife Miz Liz, so she hid in a dumpster with a shotgun and waited for him to pass by. After a while, she got hungry and went to go get some food. She returned to the dumpster but found it too difficult to climb inside while carrying both the shotgun and her food, so she put the shotgun in first. When she climbed in herself, her foot accidentally tripped the hammer and caused the shotgun to fire, killing her. | |

In the Discworld series, the Ankh-Morpork City Watch have a category labeled "Suicide" for some deaths, usually listed in the police report alongside the lesser offence of "Being Bloody Stupid", to conclude reports on the deaths of people who behaved in such spectacularly stupid and heedless fashion as to precipitate their own deaths. A typical Suicide might involve somebody walking into the hardest pub in town, announcing themself as "Vincent The Invulnerable", and challenging anyone to prove them wrong. A close second might be the vampire who took a job in a pencil factory. | |

In Tiger King, Travis pointed his new Luger at Joshua and claimed that, with the clip out, it could not fire. He demonstrated by putting the barrel to his own head and pulling the trigger. This pistol had a round in the chamber and did indeed fire, killing him in front of Joshua. (While Travis was visibly depressed and self-destructive, Joshua maintains that Travis was not actually intending to commit suicide at the moment.) | |

Red Dwarf: This was how Rimmer died in the first episode. He repairs a drive plate improperly, causing it to leak radiation and kill everyone on the ship (except for Lister, who was in stasis at the time), including himself. This was also how the Simulant was defeated in "Justice." He had intended to attack Lister but thanks to the effects of the justice field (which reverses any crime committed on the user), winds up being dealt the same blows that he intended to make instead and is destroyed as a result. |

To avoid shame, his family removed the pornography before reporting his death. His death was ruled a suicide and his body turned into an anatomy skeleton. | |

In Walk Hard, Dewey tries to reconcile with his father who has not forgiven him for accidentally killing his younger brother by cutting him in half with a machete years ago. The two men end up dueling with machetes and Dewey's father cuts himself in half with his own machete. He does forgive Dewey before he dies though, as he now realizes how easy it is to cut someone in half with a machete. | |

Bodies Bodies Bodies ends with the reveal that David's death, the inciting incident of the plot, was actually one of these rather than a murder. Specifically, he was drunkenly trying to film a TikTok video of himself opening a bottle of champagne with a kukri like he saw Greg do at the start of the film, only to accidentally slit his own throat in the process. Unfortunately, by the time somebody decided to check his phone, everybody in the house save for Bee and Sophie was dead, having assumed that David was murdered and that the murderer was one of them and proceeding to kill each other out of paranoid suspicion. | |

Depending on your interpretation, Bobby C.'s death in Saturday Night Fever is either this or Driven to Suicide. By the time of his death, Bobby C. is desperate. He has a pregnant, very Catholic girlfriend who he does not want to stay with and is being pressured by his family and hers to marry her. He even asks former priest Frank Jr. if The Pope would give him an exemption. When he starts climbing the bridge he is drunk and acting more recklessly than usual, going on a rant about Tony's lack of care for him, which all points to him reaching a Despair Event Horizon. However in the end, Bobby C. slips off the bridge and falls to his death; he does not jump. | |

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Golden Wind: Risotto's battle against Doppio personifies this trope. Risotto spends the fight totally dominating Doppio by depleting the kid's iron levels and tearing him apart from the inside using his Stand Metallica. Just as he's about to land the finishing blow, Narancia uses Aerosmith to riddle Risotto with bullets, since Doppio's body wasn't registering on its radar due to a lack of oxygen. Risotto does initially survive, but when he tries to gun down Diavolo (who has emerged from Doppio's body) by controlling Aerosmith via blood and viscera splatter, Diavolo skips time by half a second, leading Risotto to inadvertently shoot himself dead. | |

Subverted in Hunter × Hunter after Gon, in his rage and desperation to kill Pitou, unknowingly creates a nen pact to release all of his current, latent, and future nen ability to gain the power to defeat Pitou. This ages him up and turns him into a One-Man Army, whose power, Pitou notes, rivals that of Mereum, a Dark Messiah Physical God and killer of Netero, the leader of the Hunter Association and strongest known human nen-user alive. At the end of the fight, Gon is a literal husk of a person on the brink of death. It takes Killua's sister Alluka, who has a Make a Wish, reality-warping nen ability via Nanika to heal him. But even that is not enough to restore Gon's nen abilities. | |

The Grand Finale of the Kyoto Arc of Rurouni Kenshin shows Makoto Shishio getting to his max to finally defeat Kenshin Himura. But before he could give Kenshin the final hit to kill him, Shishio's body shuts down since he pushed himself to fight Kenshin for 30 minutes, way over his 20 minute limit (he can't fight at his max for over 20 minutes since doing so causes his blood to boil). This leads to his inevitable death by Spontaneous Human Combustion. | |

South Park: Resident Butt-Monkey and Chew Toy Kenny does this a lot: In the episode "Sexual Healing", Kenny kills himself by autoerotic asphyxiation after learning about it from a sex addiction therapist. In "Mecha-Streisand", Kenny hits a tetherball and the rope wraps him around the pole, causing him to choke to death. In "Summer Sucks", during the flashback of the boys as toddlers, Kenny holds onto a firecracker, which explodes and blows his head off. In "Are You There, God? It's Me, Jesus", Kenny sticks a tampon into his ass when he mistakenly believes he's menstruating (it's actually a colon infection). Later, his insides burst from the pressure. In "Chef Goes Nanners", Kenny eats a bunch of antacid tablets, thinking they were mints. Afterwards, he has a drink of water and promptly bursts into Ludicrous Gibs. In "Titties and Dragons", Kenny (as Princess Kenny) jumps out of a window, trying to fly. He promptly falls to his death. |

In one episode of Emergency!, a woman is brought to the hospital after taking an overdose of pills. According to her boyfriend, this is a common thing with her as she's made several suicide attempts whenever she wanted attention. Unfortunately, this time turns out to be different as she had unknowningly taken a highly dangerous drug. Despite the doctors' attempts, they were unable to save her. When the boyfriend states he never expected her to actually go through with it, Dr. Brackett says she didn't either. | |

In the Diagnosis: Murder episode "Murder By Remote Control", a computer expert who had lost his son in a failed operation sought revenge on those he blamed for his son's death by using his computer skills to murder their own children. To throw suspicion off himself, he programmed his home computer to fill his bedroom with noxious gas to fake an attempt on his life, expecting his housekeeper to arrive in time to prevent it. Unfortunately, due to an accident on the road, his housekeeper is delayed by an hour and by the time she arrives, it is too late to save him. And since he had already programmed his computer with his remaining targets, his killing spree continues. | |

In Quincy, M.E. episode "The Final Gift", two partners in a crop dusting business are arguing over selling their business. The pair end up in a plane accident, with the one against selling suffering severe blood loss. His partner gives him a blood transfusion, but the man dies soon after. During the autopsy, Quincy discovers that the dead guy had suffered from arsenic poisoning and begins to think that his partner had poisoned him so he could sell the business. It's eventually revealed that it was the other way around: the deceased had been slowly poisoning his partner with arsenic in order to stop the sale of the business. He also had a bad liver, so when his partner gave him the blood transfusion, the arsenic in his partner's blood killed him almost instantly. As Quincy put it, if the victim hadn't tried to kill his partner, he wouldn't have died. | |

Inception: Death Is the Only Option variant. Upon their return to reality after spending a lifetime together in Limbo, Mal remains convinced that they are still dreaming and that she and Cobb need to wake up by killing themselves since in dreams this is the only way out. She leaps out of her hotel room's window and plummets to her death. While she did intend to kill herself, she didn't think doing so would actually mean she'd be dead given the logic of dreams. The Reveal that she was Cobb's first inception success story, as he planted the idea that her world isn't real when she refused to leave Limbo, makes this actually a Subverted Trope and really a case of Psychic-Assisted Suicide. | |
