8 of the members did, including Applewhite. One of the cult members had worked in a cancer ward and was familiar with the process. Surprisingly, it wasn't Applewhite's idea to begin with and he initially forbid them from doing it, but that obviously didn't last.

There's a really good documentary about Heaven's Gate streaming on HBO Max. I remember them being the butt of so many jokes in the late 90s. After watching it I just felt so sad for everyone involved. They were batshit crazy, no doubt, but a lot of them were just lost people looking for some purpose. It's a good watch

[-]

DrewBaron80@reddit

There's also a great podcast titled Heaven's Gate. It's 10 parts and narrated very well, and it focuses a lot on the people who were left behind, both family members and other cult members. It inspired me to pick up Ben Zeller's book on the subject.

[-]

There's some good ones on Jonestown, too. A few movies based on that event that are decent, too. Jim Jones was a scarily evil man.

BoredCareGiver@reddit

It's a interesting one. My one problem is that the narration brings up in passing that Bonnie Nettles had met Marshall Applewhite while working as a nurse in the psych ward that he was being treated at and just doesn't really interrogate that at all and later seems to imply the group took a more abusive turn after her death.

My entire life my insisted that I was born evil. She told me that I would grow up to become a serial killing rapist cult leader. She totally thought I was going to be my generation's version of Charles Manson. She even said "that's going to be you" when the Heaven's Gate people thing happened. I have not accomplished any of that at all. Thank you for reminding me how wonderful of a disappointment I am to her. Lol
