…but in what position was Ernest Hemingway when he shot himself? Does anybody know for sure?
Alive?
Muzzle to muzzle with a shotgun.
Either his finger or his toe was on the trigger.
What’s really scary is at first, they reported it as being an accident…
That was probably to spare the family and Hemingway’s good name. There’s still quite a bit of stigma attached to suicide and depression.
Although I agree, it was blatantly moronic in this case.
