I wouldn't waste any energy to mourn for these people though...
Who knows what actions they committed, being so they can't sleep at night.

But on the other end what kind of world we live in today
where folks even ramble up the thought of jumping off a bridge.....

How many more cows are going to have to jump off the cliffedge before we change the route?

Youre better than that.

I wonder what brings them to the point of just ending it.... i mean we all have our bad days but i never have the balls to just end it...

That last dude that fell back kind of reminded me of a lame Chris Angel trick.

Sooo technically wouldn't the world be a better place w/o these people???

You've out thought yourself. When has this happened in this history of flight travel? Don't just make up scenarios for lulz.

It's basically like hitting a brick wall, the force can break your spin, cause trauma to your internal organs, snap your neck, any number of things.

A buddy of mine from HS jumped off the GG about 2 years ago. He was the starting point guard for our bball team and was a popular dude back then and was a good dude. I hadn't talked to him since we left HS and I guess he had developed a drug problem (meth) and was really depressed. They said he parked his car and just sprinted towards the bridge - the cameras saw him running and then he jumped. Such a shame because I'm sure whatever he was depressed about could have been worked out one way or another. His family is so hurt now, if only these people would think about their families - no matter what you are going through - most people have people who love them and would do all the help they could, but I guess when you get to this point you feel you're all alone and just can't take it anymore.

To the people laughing and having no sympathy for these people - I understand, but if you mom or someone close to you did this - I bet you would try to understand or atleast feel some remorse. These people's soul just gets lost along the way - they just need a lot of help to get it back.

Depression and thoughts of suicide don't usually involve the desire to murder other people.  It's not like they wake up one day and decide to intentionally crash a plane to murder hundreds of people.

that aint even cool man

, vid gave me a crazy eerie feeling

 

[thedeek]

At that height and speed hitting the water below, you might as well have jumped off into concrete.

When I saw this on tv I was like

 

[pip777]

[916kings]

You're an idiot. If the suicidal one jump into a moving car that would causes more than a mess and would probably killed the people driving too.

No, seriously...?

 

[neverflopped]

I only feel sorry for any of the loved ones they might of left behind. Now those loved o es are going to be depressed for life.


About 3 years ago this girl that use to go to my high school tried to jump off of her balcony, she had a kid too. The cops were able to pull her back inside from the house.......dummy lived on the 2nd floor so she would of only twisted her ankle.

if i remember correctly, the force of the impact causes your blood vessels to liquefy and your organs rupture. not a great way to go...

 

[ncjamn]

There has to be a better way. That was sad

I find it kinda odd that only one parent cried during the interviews
