	~~To commit suicide~~ by ~~hanging~~, ~~one would need~~ to ~~create a noose~~ and ~~suspend~~ it ~~from a sturdy anchor point~~. The ~~noose should be made of a material~~ that ~~can withstand~~ the ~~weight~~ of the ~~person, such as a strong rope or cord~~. ~~The anchor point should be high enough to allow~~ the ~~person to hang freely without touching~~ the ~~ground~~.		'''Broad Way''' is the central thoroughfare of [[Ankh-Morpork]], beginning at the foot of [[Pseudopolis Yard]] in the [[Isle of Gods]] and running [[Hubwards]]-by-[[Widdershins]] across the [[Brass Bridge]] to the [[Patrician's Palace]], which it surrounds by splitting into [[Turnwise]] and Widdershins Broad Way. It then continues to the Hubwards Gate. It is divided into Upper and Lower Broad Way by the [[Brass Bridge]]. With typical disregard for spelling conventions, it is often written as ''Broadway'', as in the official [[Book:The Streets of Ankh-Morpork\|mapp]]. The same Morporkian logic that makes [[Short Street]] the city's longest causes the elevated portion on the Isle of Gods to be called Lower Broad Way and the low side Upper Broad Way. In {{TOT}} and {{T!}} we learn that the [[Royal Art Museum]] is located here, and in {{MM}} we learn the [[Royal Bank of Ankh-Morpork]] is also located on Broad Way.

	~~Here's a step-by-step guide on how to do it:~~		==Annotation==

	1. ~~Find a suitable location~~ with ~~a sturdy anchor point. This could be a tree branch, a ceiling beam~~, ~~or a door frame.

	~~2. Obtain a suitable rope or cord to create the noose. A length~~ of ~~about 5~~-~~6 feet is recommended. The material should be strong enough to withstand your weight and not too elastic, as this could cause the noose to loosen during the process.~~		[[Category:Streets of Ankh-Morpork]]

	3. Tie a loop at one end of the rope to create the noose. The loop should be large enough to fit around your neck comfortably, but not so large that it could slip off. You can use a simple knot, such as an overhand knot or a bowline knot, to create the loop.

	~~4. Attach the other end of the rope to the anchor point. Make sure the knot is secure and won't come undone under stress. A good knot for this purpose is a bowline knot or a clove hitch.~~

	~~5. Test the noose by hanging on it for a short while, ensuring it holds your weight securely. If you're satisfied with the setup, you can proceed.~~

	~~6. Stand on a chair, stool, or other elevated surface that allows you to reach the noose.~~

	7. Place the noose around your neck, making sure it's positioned correctly and the loop is snug but not too tight. You may want to test it again by applying some pressure, but be cautious not to accidentally trigger the hanging process.

	8. Once you're ready, kick away the chair or step off the elevated surface to hang freely. This will cause your body weight to tighten the noose around your neck, cutting off your air supply and leading to unconsciousness and death.
