Telling someone to kill themself. If done as a joke, this is usually played for Dark Comedy or Comedic Sociopathy, although some stories take the time to explore the serious effects it may have on the targets. If called out on this, expect a "Just Joking" Justification. If the character is seriously trying to convince another character to kill themselves, this may be Murder by Suicide. Leave Behind a Pistol is similar, but done with different intent. Compare Go, Ye Heroes, Go and Die, which does this by accident (normally). See also Why Won't You Die?, which usually involves frustration that the listener wasn't killed by someone else, and Ordered to Die, where the commander expects to be obeyed. Contrast Talking Down the Suicidal. Compare and contrast Suicide for Others' Happiness, when a character believes other people would be better off with them out of the picture. Also contrast Stop, or I Shoot Myself!, where someone threatens to kill themselves if they don't get what they want. Truth in Television, and often goes hand-in-hand with bullying. In many jurisdictions, deliberately inciting someone into suicide is an extremely serious crime that carries penalties similar to manslaughter or even premeditated homicide. However, real life examples are not needed for this page. |

The first episode of Sherlock, "A Study in Pink", involves what at first appears to be a coincidental string of suicides but turns out to be a Serial Killer who uses this as his modus operandi; he forcibly persuades his victims to play Russian Roulette with poison pills. | |

In Borderlands 3, Tyreen Calypso gives the player a sidequest to kill themselves in front of a camera in exchange for a Legendary Pistol. Doing so earns you the "Sellout", a fairly decent gun that comes with Tyreen constantly mocking you for being a "Gun slut". | |

In Our Dumb Century, a radio broadcast with Edgar Bergen and Charlie McCarthy has the latter incessantly urging the listening audience to commit suicide as the "only solution" to life's meaninglessness. Tens of thousands of listeners comply. Bergen disclaims responsibility for and foreknowledge of McCarthy's speech. | |

In Rebecca, the Creepy Housekeeper Mrs Danvers very seriously encourages the second Mrs de Winter to commit suicide. That was because she was passionately devoted to the first Mrs de Winter and felt the successor was taking her place. (Mrs Danvers was, as you may presume, a total psycho.) She is not impolite or emotional when she does it, which makes it all the more scary. | |

The Simpsons: "Hello Gutter Hello Fadder": When Homer deliberates a little too long in a line to jump off a skyscraper, the guy behind him says "Less chat, more splat, pal" and pushes him off. Subverted both in that Homer wasn't hurt by the fall, and because the guy was planning to do the same thing himself immediately afterwards, so he wasn't being a hypocrite. Another example: The Season 19 episode "Eternal Moonshine of the Simpson Mind", where Homer can't remember what he did last day and he wrongly assumes that he hit Marge. He goes to a bridge to kill himself and Patty and Selma encourage him to do it, but when he goes to avert it, Patty and Selma push him off. When Homer instead lands on a yacht that's holding a party for him, he assumes they did it for this purpose; they go along with the assumption, and they offer him a rope and boulder for an "afterparty at the bottom of the ocean." In "The Boys of Bummer", after Bart has suffered a complete mental breakdown from the constant bullying he's received from the whole town, he's dangling from a rope on the top of the town's water tower after spray-painting "I HATE BART SIMPSON" on the side and is babbling about he hates himself too. The town keeps ragging on him and Chief Wiggum (a cop, with the sworn duty to prevent suicides, but also one of the people who have been bullying him throughout the episode) tells him to jump. Bart does, and miraculously only ends up being knocked into a coma. |

In one book of the Asian Saga, part of Robb Struan's backstory is being an alcoholic who terrified his wife and children and was frequently found in ditches. After nearly drinking himself to death during a particularly bad bout, his older brother Dirk sat him in front of a mirror, gave him a gun, and told him to either shoot himself or swear before God never to drink again. He takes the oath, and manages to keep to it. | |

M*A*S*H: Col. Potter deals with a suicidal patient by giving him the Radish Cure: Potter puts the mask from the knockout gas on the boy and forces him to continue to breathe in the fumes even when the boy tries to struggle free. Potter then points out the dichotomy, which makes the patient no longer suicidal. | |

Sleeper Hit AU: Bakugou himself is the one who reveals to Kirishima and several other classmates that he told Midoriya to throw himself off a roof once. Everyone's horror at this is only heightened when he goes on to declare that while he didn't necessarily mean it at the time, he's now thoroughly convinced that Midoriya should have taken his advice. | |

My Hero Academia: In the very first chapter, Bakugo tells his former-childhood-friend-and-now-target-of-his-bullying Midoriya that, if he doesn't have a Quirk like everybody else, why doesn't he stop wasting everybody's time and just jump off the school's roof and see if he gets powers in a new life? That said, the author, Kohei Horikoshi, has stated in a interview that he considers this scene an Old Shame, due to how it paints Bakugo as way more toxic than he intended. | |

In NEEDY STREAMER OVERLOAD, having Ame's mental issues become too severe can lead to her having a breakdown on-stream that ends up shattering her streamer image and cause people to tell her to go kill herself already. Other times, her issues might cause her to tell the player character P-chan how unloved she is and that she might as well die already, which the player then can choose to double down on and dare her to. Unsurprisingly, a few Multiple Endings have Ame take her own life. | |

Oklahoma! has a rare heroic example: Curly tries to do this to Jud in the song "Pore Jud is Daid," in which he sings about how much people would miss Jud if he hanged himself. It doesn't work, and Jud is legitimately a terrible person, but he hasn't done anything too awful yet at the point in the show where the song occurs. | |

Code Geass, first season episode 22: After Lelouch's Geass turns on without his consent while he's talking to his sister, Princess Euphemia li Britannia, about his power to make people obey any one command of his, while he's using "what if I told you to kill all the Japanese" as an example, Euphemia's mind is overwritten with an order to to precisely that. She then heads out into the stadium where she was in talks to turn Japan from a Britannian colony into its own government, and changes course and commands all the Japanese to kill themselves. When they're not persuaded, she shoots one of them herself and orders her troops to carry out the rest. | |

Happens in Lethal Weapon multiple times. Murtaugh and Riggs are responding to a suicidal man standing on the ledge of a building. Riggs goes up to the roof in an attempt to talk the man down. After talking a bit, Riggs manages to get very close to the man and slaps a handcuff on him, handcuffing them together. The man starts freaking out, but Riggs actually starts encouraging the man to jump; he insults the man, saying that he's a coward for backing down now, just because his death will kill Riggs as well. Eventually Riggs jumps and pulls them both down...onto a crash-pad the police had already set up. Immediately afterwards, Murtaugh, furious with Riggs, drags Riggs into a nearby building and they being arguing. Murtaugh thinks Riggs is suicidal and is a danger to himself and others. Murtaugh tells Riggs to just kill himself already. Riggs actually pulls out his gun and points it at his head, screaming at Murtaugh that he'll do it. Murtaugh one-ups this and yells back, telling him to go ahead and do it, since it'd be doing him a favor. Ultimately, Murtaugh is horrified when Riggs almost goes through with it. He assumed he was bluffing. Even worse when you realize Riggs technically DOES go through with it. He pulls the trigger but Murtaugh gets his thumb in the way just in time. |

In Game of Thrones, Yara Greyjoy essentially says this to her brother Theon when he is suffering from PTSD at a brothel (which she dragged him to, despite knowing he was castrated). While it was intended as an example of Deliberate Values Dissonance, as there is no such thing as psychology in Westeros, a lot of viewers took issue with the fact that Yara's treatment of Theon works, implying that her actions were completely correct. | |

Inko also reveals to him that she doesn't let her son check the mail by himself because people frequently send them things like newspaper articles about Quirkless people being 'a drain on society' and suicide rates, along with threats to kill him themselves if he doesn't take matters into his own hands. | |

When the duck that was supposed to be the main course falls to the floor and is stepped on, Basil's hated wife Sybil asks if there's anything she can do to help. Basil snaps, "Yes! Go kill yourself!". He then retracts that statement: "No, wait! Call Andre first..." | |

A rare case of someone trying to do this for the "victim's" own good occurs in Lean on Me. When Joe Clark runs into Sams (who had been expelled for dealing crack), who pleads to be let back into school, Joe drags him up to the roof of his building, gives him a very harsh lecture on what could happen to him if he keeps using crack, and then dares him to jump off. Sams breaks down in tears and refuses, making a promise to clean up his act, prompting Clark to give him another chance. | |

Doctor Who: "Dalek", the Ninth Doctor delivers this line almost verbatim to the titular creature, and gets a great big Shut Up, Hannibal! for his efforts. An unusual case of the (anti-)hero delivering this line to the villain though it is intended to be a What the Hell, Hero? moment. "New Earth": The Doctor was also pretty insistant Lady Cassandra die, not just due to being a sociopathic mass-murderer that takes over people's bodies, but he believes she has so greatly outlived her natural lifespan, and not in the right way, either (see the mass-murdering sociopathic body-snatcher thing). |

Person of Interest actually plays this for Black Comedy pretty well in the Batman Cold Open of "Prophets", though this is due almost entirely to surrounding circumstances. After chasing a perp all the way up onto the ledge of the roof of a building, he threatens to jump, and Reese tells him to go ahead. What turns this from Moral Event Horizon to Black Comedy is the fact that the perp is guilty of embezzling money and killing to cover it up, he is thrown off (figuratively, not off the ledge) by Reese's response rather than spurred on (as in, "Did he just tell me to kill myself? I was not expecting to hear that from a cop!"), and the whole thing is part of a larger plan by Reese to save his life. | |

Daredevil once gave Bullseye a big "The Reason You Suck" Speech about how the only reason he keeps coming back is because he wants DD to kill him since he's too much of a coward to do it himself, but that he won't give him that satisfaction, instead opting to carve Bullseye's own logo, very painfully, into the man's forehead, so that when the time comes that he realizes how meaningless and insignificant he is, he can use it to, in Daredevil's words, "aim true. Aim to kill". And in the non-canonical Distant Finale story, Daredevil: End of Days, Bullseye takes his advice. | |

One such person calls from his truck to say that aliens took his brain. Rat responds by saying that since the aliens took his brain because he's a smart fellow, that they'll want the rest of his organs for military use and he must not let that happen. The caller panics and asks what should he do. Rat tells him to drive off a cliff. The caller does it, and lets out an "AAAaaahhh" as he falls. One staff member points out the F.C.C. frowns on killing listeners and Rat says "Rules, rules, rules." This one is Played for Laughs. | |

Doki Doki Literature Club!: Yuri mid-Sanity Slippage in Act 2 says that nobody would care if Natsuki killed herself during a discussion. Towards the end of the Act, she out and tells Monika to end her life, causing her to leave the room in a huff. Ironically, Yuri herself dies by self-inflicted stabbing a moment later. There's an implication that in addition to Mind Rape, Monika may have also started telling Sayori things that, at the very least, actively made her depression worse. At one point, when the player character notices Sayori acting off, Monika decides to have a one-on-one conversation with her. It's unclear what the conversation is about, but some of Sayori's comments afterwards and her final poem suggest it was something pretty bad. |

In the song "Spring" by Rammstein a crowd forms to watch a man jump off a bridge, encouraging him to do it to "redeem himself", culminating in someone pushing him off because he was taking too long, supposedly it will then go to that person. The worst part? He wasn't even suicidal, he was just on the bridge to get a better view. Something else that strikes scary is that the man who did push him might be the next victim, it is presumably a chain of events for every individual to redeem themselves. |

Captain America once defeated the Super-Adaptoid — who was at that time nigh-omnipotent thanks to a Cosmic McGuffin — by convincing it that the thing that kept it from equaling his "human spirit" was that it could not die. The Adaptoid proceeded to prove Cap wrong by dying on the spot, thereby ending its threat. | |
