That isn't what happened, and I can explain why. They show a part earlier in the movie when the clone falls in the water-filled box. The clone struggles to get out of the box. If he were killing himself, but the clone was transported, then he would not struggle to get out of the box because he would expect this to happen. But the clone, newly made, struggles because he has just been created and doesn't know what is happening so he struggles for his life.
Second, there is another part where he is testing out the machine and leaves a gun in the place where he transports. He does this because he knows that he must immediately kill the clone because he cannot risk having multiple copies of himself in public or nobody will believe his trick. That is why he kills his clone immediately after transporting.
Third, and the most obvious evidence, is that he, Tesla, and Cutter (Michael Caine's character) all verify that the machine is real and actually transports a man. What we learn later is that it also puts a clone in the place of the man transported.

He didn't commit suicide. He himself was transported. His replicate, or clone, is the one he murdered each time he did the "magic trick".

Has anyone seen "The Prestige" with Christian Bale? It is great. It is another in the line of Chris Nolan flicks that has not disappointed. First he brought Memento, then Batman Begins, and then the Prestige. I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

How about Cinderella in Restraints? Or Snow White behind bars? Don't you think that captures the essence of Alic in Chains?

Did someone actually say they were playing Civ 4 with their significant other? Civ 4 is like heroine, man. Some people would even sell their kids.

My personal favourite is the "I put the stud in study" t-shirt.

Some people can be on tv shows like Cops, but that might be a dubious distinction. If you really want an autographed t-shirt, sure.

Really? I thought you may have contributed to some of the "chicken cross the road" discussion.

I didn't let you know which season I was on in the first comment so I thought that I would specify.

Highlander, eh? Anyways, no it does not pay much because so many people are willing to do it for free. I was actually on the second season of Beauty and the Geek.

Everybody is high on Clockwork Orange, and though it is a well-made movie, it is disturbing.

This is evil, man. Why don't they seal the machines?

You're saying one guy is behind all this spam? Can you get the death penalty for this crime?

Civ 4 is an incredibly addictive game. I actually know someone who bought a playstation to ween themselves off of Civ 4.

Don't you stop celebrating birthdays after you turn 21? The rest of the birthdays are just benchmarks reached on the way to old age.

Isn't it amazing that Kobayashi, a man who has eaten probably thousands of hot dogs, still has a six pack?

Hey,
My name is Chris the Geek, and I was actually on the reality television show Beauty and the Geek. I consider myself quite the geek and started an online t-shirt website called Geekfitters.
