Hmm, suicide is a dimension I wasn't really considering. I suppose it makes sense that a suicidal kid will dwell on death and the macabre. A video of a person's death would definitely fit that curiosity. However, that said, I'd still guess that most kids are looking for entertainment.

For me the sickest facet of people watching a suicide video is for the entertainment "value." It's like how a lot of young guys are addicted to hardcore porn. Disturbing content encourages some people to find excitement in bad ways. I suppose I wish young people were educated better.

All of that said, watching a video of someone's death for the sake of learning something important (or facing something important) would be okay with me, but that sort of opportunity is extremely rare in my mind.
