'SEINFELD' STAR
Survives Suicide Attempt
'I've Shot Myself in the Head'

Daniel von Bargen -- who played Mr. Kruger in "Seinfeld" -- is clinging to life in an Ohio hospital after shooting himself in the head Monday morning in a failed suicide attempt ... and TMZ has the horrifying 911 tape in which he calls for help.

Daniel tells the 911 operator, "I've shot myself in the head ... and I need help."

The operator asks if it was an accident -- Daniel replies, "I was supposed to go to the hospital and I didn't want to." Daniel says he's diabetic, explaining, "They were supposed to amputate at least a few toes."

The operator asks where the gunshot wound is -- Daniel replies, "I shot in my temple."

Law enforcement officials confirm they were dispatched to von Bargen's Cincinnati apartment complex a short time later -- and when they arrived, you can hear them on the 911 tape ... yelling at Daniel to keep his hands where they could see them.

Von Bargen -- who also played Chief Grady in "Super Troopers" -- was transported to a nearby hospital where he is currently in critical condition.

During the call, Daniel goes into even more graphic detail about his condition. Listen at your own discretion.

Yes...great character, great show.

This.

There were only 4 stars of Seinfeld. Misleading headline. Ban him!

Sofa King · 02-22-2012, 09:32 PM

I clearly copied TMZ's headline. So take it up with them you ****ers!

Okie_Apparition · 02-22-2012, 10:04 PM

Didn't he have a fake arm in Malcom
or was it real

I think we're getting a little loose with the word "star"

Well...that was certainly depressing. Poor bastard.

Should have just called George T-bone and none of this would have happened.

The Dawg · 02-23-2012, 03:09 AM

Operator - So your family lives down the street?

But yeah, this is really depressing, and I'm on the verge of running through the amazing stretch of episodes he appeared in on Seinfeld yet another time so that's going to be really weird. He was so incredibly fun to to watch on both Seinfeld and MitM, and a few days ago I was scrolling through basic cable while visiting family in TN and was shocked to discover that he was in the inimitable Kevin Costner classic The Postman. So sad to hear that he's gone through so many health issues that he'd rather be dead.

What's especially depressing is that his quality of life is going to be even worse now; an old neighbor of mine similarly tried and failed to kill himself (with weed killer, jesus christ

) only to go deaf, suffer renal failure, and eventually succeed in killing himself on his second attempt after what must have been a horrible year of knowing he was slowly dying anyways.

agreed. there's really no other option. there's no other show that compares. episode after episode of pure awesomeness. it's GOLD...pure GOLD.
calling the dude a star....eh....maybe Newman or Jerry's parents....maybe even Jerry's uncle...or Peterman....hell Putty even....but this guy?! I do wish him well though.
