3. just himself (i.e., something act he committed).

3. Hmmmm.... hard to answer that one. I guess yes.
4. Yes. Gun.
5. No.

Let me say again, the guy shot himself in the head with a gun. THAT was the cause of death. Now you need to figure out WHY he did that.This place is too big.Comment

Let's see... so this single American guy, a former cook, joins the Navy and quickly realizes that he has no aptitude for or a deathly fear of flying. The albatross represents both his inability to fly and his anxiety about it.
So he shoots himself in a perfectly normal restaurant so because he can't live with the shame.
LOL okay, it was a reach, but I couldn't help myself!

Let's see. He started eating the ALbatross, then thought back to his childhood in the "Rescuers Down Under" Disney movie, realized he was eating the very same bird that carried those cute mice from America all the way to Australia and decided to take his life. Being in the Navy was a coincidence.

1) Has eating the albatros caused him to kill himself?
If "no" that would make those two events unrelated.
If "yes", then:
2) Was it because it put him in fitting emotional state for suicide (for example by reminding him of something that happened in the past)?
if "no":
3) Was it because it somehow contained some kind of message giving him new information that made him want to kill himself?Comment

Did the albatross meat give him super-psychic abilities?Originally posted by TeraBabes
1. Yes.
2. Yes.

If yes, then my guess is that he realized that the bird was really his father reincanated. Distraught he killed hiself.Comment

They tell him they found a dead albatross when he ate the albtross he realises it was not albatross he ate before but his friend or maybe wife or child...hence he hits instant depression and shoots himself...sorry love I got it right no DVD player for you now show us your tits....Comment

Pretty good guess. His legs are fine though, so no.... After all, "he walked" into the restaurant.Originally posted by american perv

Wow. I don't even know where to start with this one. How about with you calling me "love." Not a big fan of that. As for me showing you my tits, I don't think that is a good idea either... what with me being a GUY and all. But hey, whatever floats your boat. I'm not judging you for being gay. It's just not my thing.Originally posted by Krome

Oh, and I don't want a DVD player (I already have 2). I just wanted a break from all the Visa threads.
As for your guess, not quite, but close enough. I'll explain in a minute.This place is too big.Comment

*****
OK, here is the answer... Krome was close enough, so I'll say he is the winner.
The guy used to be a cook in the Navy. One day, there was an explosion in the kitchen. He managed to survive, but lost his vision. After days and days and days of being stranded at sea on life boats, the survivors started dying from starvation and their various injuries.
Finally, they managed to kill a few of the Albatross that were flying around their life rafts, so they had food. The blind man ate, and enjoyed the Albatross.
They were eventually rescued. After getting home and getting his life somewhat back in order, the man was craving Albatross, so he went to a restaurant and ordered it - raw, of course. When he took the first bite, he realized he was not fed Albatros on the boat... He actually was eating his fellow crew members. He couldn't live with the fact that he enjoyed eating people, so he killed himself right there, on the spot.
And there you have it.
*****
And for the record, you guys suck at asking "Yes/No" questions. Almost everyone jumped right into their crazy theories
