Wouldn't that indicate that God/Jesus has a 'thing' for suicide ? Perhaps its extra entertaining for Him since he knows how seriously we take death.

He could of made it ANYTHING else.

He didn't have to send himself back to kill himself to save us from the sin he created.

He could of just said `let it be done` then poof, same outcome.

Something to consider,

the sin of suicide is the taking of your life before your time is up, before the appointed time. Jesus died when it was His time. It says in the bible that this was the time God appointed for Him to die. No sin.

So, it's only your 'time' to go when god says so?
