Apart from others' suggestions, you could consider:
kill -KILL $$
and you can also make the script (or maybe the application itself) the
users' shell.
Note that if you make the application the users' shell, then the standard
shell initialisation isn't done. You may also find this is so if you make
the script the users' shell, but then if you start it
#!/bin/bash -login
or maybe
#!/bin/bash --login -i
you will overcome that, but note too that part of the initialisation (on
RHL) is to run a couple of user scripts:
~/.bash_profile
~/.bashrc
and that there are other names tried if these do not exist.
