A Russian engineer killed himself using a guillotine he built in his bedroom.
47-year-old Albert Repin's mother said he had shut himself in his bedroom for days, saying he wanted to build a cupboard, according to a report in newspaper Tvoi Den, which also published photographs and sketches of the contraption.
His body was found jammed in the "strange construction" which used a metal plate - attached to a plank and weighted with large water bottles - as a blade.
The man, a divorcee from Moscow, lay on the floor beneath and triggered the guillotine himself. He had reportedly suffered psychiatric problems in recent years.

so mission accomplished apart from that it didnt completely cut off his head like a real guillotine. What else can i say, its obvious that the guy with his history should have more social control. But as this typical news happened in a country like Russia, i cant help it being cynical, sorry.
He forgot to put the cutting-edge at an angle...
