He was sentenced to death by hanging. He committed suicide with a smuggled cyanide capsule about two hours before his execution. He left a note saying he did not object to the death sentence, but felt he should be shot by firing squad, and that it was "undignified" for him to hang. Keitel and Jodl, the other two military generals condemned to death, also requested firing squad, which was denied.

Hermann Goering was 5'6'' tall and weighed 265 lbs. He was not 5'10 as previously stated. One of the supervisors of the prison guards is featured on a documentary and talks about Goering in detail. See 9:03 <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-GwmU1OTLE> Goering was short and round. Goering's weight vacillated. He had a drug addiction and an eating disorder. When he was captured, he had a huge box of bottles of pills in his possession, perhaps 30,000 pills and was taking 40 per day. The Allies weaned him off his drugs in captivity during the Nuremberg Trials in 1945. He was also restricted to a low-calorie diet. Goering went from 265 pounds to perhaps 190 before he was set to be hung.

Twelve Nazi leaders were sentenced to death and executed as a result of the Nuremberg trials.
There were several war crimes trials for ex-Nazis who were captured by the Allies. The most famous trial of the top leaders, including Herman Goering, was held at Nurnberg, Germany. The first German executed for war crimes was General Dostler and his trial was held in Italy, where he was executed in December 1945.
