Test nuclear bombs
like the French military did off the coast of Tahiti in 1996.

cremated remains
as the city of Shanghai does to resolve the problem of
diminishing plot availability and a growing population.

Manufacture copies of stolen music CDs and movies
like Jackie Chan's recent movie The Tuxedo, reproduced on ships running
the busy Malacca Straits between Malaysia and Indonesia.

from the Atlantic Ocean off West Africa, depleting supplies for local fishermen
Dump stuff
such as ships, airplanes, oil rigs, etc., as the Russians did in 2001
with the Space Station Mir, once home to over 100 cosmonauts and astronauts,

in a “spaceship graveyard” between Chile and New Zealand. |

like the 11 armed bandits who hijacked the Alondra Rainbow—
a 370-foot Japanese-owned freighter flying a Panamanian flag that was carrying US$10 million in aluminum ingots from Sumatra to Japan—set its crew adrift, repainted the ship, and renamed her The Mega Rama. (They were caught three weeks later by the Indian Navy.)
Kill yourself
