An Olive Garden cook has died after he dunked his own head into a searing hot deep fryer as his co-workers frantically tried to thwart his gruesome suicide, authorities said.
The employee, who hasn't been identified, stripped his clothes off and thrust his face into the fryer at the chain's restaurant in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, last Friday afternoon, the Smoking Gun reported.
"A male victim went head first into the fryers," dispatchers could be heard saying in grim 911 audio.
[…]
A female employee suffered minor burns after she and several other workers tried to stop the cook from injuring himself even further.
At least one customer also tried to intervene.
Both Olive Garden and authorities refused to release any details about the ordeal, only describing it as a "suicide attempt."

No 'sane' individual would do that imo.

Better or worse than the guy that jumped into a turbine of a 737 at hobby a few years ago back.
