Which does nothing to explain the similar ratio in say England where access to guns is very restricted.
"Jumping off things" would be "falls and fracture", and it's not a common method for completed suicide. About 4% of registered deaths are "jumping off things". Drowning is a bit more, about 4%. Poisoning is about 20% and hanging, strangulation and suffocation is about 56%. (The rest has the unhelpful title of "other". I'm not sure what that means.)

Drive a car fast. Just a lethal. Sometimes you hear about car accidents with only one car involved and the young male driver was the only fatality. Sometimes it's an accident. Sometimes it's someone ending it all.
