The son of a friend of mine hung himself from a tree in a wood near a
popular walk just outside the village. His body remained unnoticed for
several days, until someone heard his phone ringing in his pocket.

when you actually bother to go off the beaten track, there are dozens
of places where by sheer random coincidence, people simply do not go
for months at a time. if ever.

Even in the middle of cities

Generally speaking those intent on hanging themselves don't go very far
off the beaten track - only a few metres.

Presumably the choice is influenced by where there is something suitable
to jump off, having tied the noose.


I understood it was usually dogs that find corpses
