CHINA Chinese guy decided to end his life during a video call with his girlfriend. He drank a solution of sodium nitrite, which in higher concentrations prevents the blood from effectively carrying oxygen. After a few minutes, he collapsed dead to the ground. His motive is unknown, but it’s possible that the girlfriend he was on the call with played a role in it.
