How do you commit suicide if you are unnable to move?

Im working on a screenplay where a man that has been in a mining accident, has a punctured lung, and his legs and arms broken, he's laying on the floor on his back, he has no hope of being rescued and wants to end his suffering. How does he kill himself. Thanks in advance.

    There's no way to commit suicide if you can't move, holding his breath won't make him die.The only way would be asking some other person next to him or something...

    If he's not paralyzed he could bang his head on a rock or roll over into the elevator shaft. He's still in the mine, right?

    The punctured lung will do the trick.

    An ongoing problem among crippled/paralyzed people who want to die and people "caring" for them won't support the request - see the Terry Shiavo fiasco https://www.google.com/search?q=terri+schiavo&ie=u...

    That's retarded, if he can't move, he can't kill himself.
