So far my theory is... he shot the gun, perhaps messing around knowing (thinking) it was empty, but inside the chamber and thus released by firing was some king of toxic fume that he eventually died from inhaling / some kind of small pellet that didn't in itself cause major damage, but broke the skin and introduced a toxic substance into the body, thus eventually killing him.

(wrong)

Oh, the list was updated the post before this one, on the previous page...

Does he perform this shooting without getting hurt (until it went wrong at his last performance)?

Also remember that I'm answering this case in pure YES and NO categories so if too many specifics are asked in a single question it could get put in the NO list.

selmiak

Should he have died every time he fired the gun?
Was the unusual thing in the gun what killed him?
Was the unusual thing organic?

dayowlron

Did him shooting the gun at his head have to do something with his occupation?
Did the gun contain some medication?
Did he die from exposure to this medication?

Remember he answered no to did he die instantly after firing the gun.

Is the last shot somehow different from all the others?
Is there some other purpose for the shooting than hurting/killing himself?
Does he know that doing this will (or might) eventually kill him?

#537
Is the shooting somehow keeping him alive (for as long as he does)?
Does the toxin he dies of come from the gun?
Does the gun fire a physical substance (in projectile, jet or some other form)?

Actually, if I only get three questions, I'll change the third one:
Is the gun something that really exists in our world? (As opposed to a sci-fi/fantasy device)
