When I had to train some people just outside of Glasgow in Scotland last year. I was based in an office that faced a very high bridge - all of sudden that room was buzzing and lot's of people were pressed up against the window looking at the hovering helicopter. The next thing I heard was "a tenner and he'll be down in five" - I was asked to wager on how fast the jumper would drop! I didn't really know what to say - which must have been obvious to one of the ladies there who told me "oh, you not from around here are you! Well, don't worry this happens almost everyday - in fact the residents under the bridge are constantly complaining about finding bodies in there gardens - despite the netting" a young scottish guy chipped in and starting singing "it's raining men!" Now I thought that was pretty extreme cynicism, but then I was thrown by a young girl who just bluntly said " ooo I love it when things like this happen, it's so exciting - plus we don't have to do any work!"
- That is seriously fucked. I understand humor/cynicism as a tool for coping, but that's still pretty shitty.blaw

80 people die from suicide every day in america. how is this jumper special -- just because you were there to witness it? surely you didn't seem very upset for the 80 sorry fucks who took their lives the day before. And dont pretend you just realized what raw and uncaring world you live in
some people want to kill themselves? fuck em, fuck em in their dead assholes.
wouldn't you think if you were sitting here all day trying to put yourself in their shoes, understand each of their reasons, you would eventually grow into a cold and heartless man..... like me- a cold heartless man who goes to tanning salonssleepyfatso

obviously the person wanted to die...and they got what they wanted. what's the problem there?
perhaps some people just wanna go out. at least she jumped and didn't knife multiple people like that loon in japan.

the lack of empathy of some people is fucking frightening.

My sympathies for having to be that close to such a tragedy.
In another thought... the penalty for attempting suicide should be life in the electric chair. They never turn it on... you just have to sit there.
thank your blessings that you (we, all of us) aren't going through that sort of pain and drama.

a guy i know tried to kill himself by jumping off a building on campus and only ended up paralyzing himself.
he deemed himself failing at life and yet failed at committing suicide.

Just relax... take some time to reflect and hope that that person is in a better place than where they were. Tough stuff, my sympathies.

Cops came in to ask if we saw anything, no one saw the actual leap. Can see the body covered in the alley, with the signature one foot exposed. 35 year old female, no ID.
All I can report at this time. I haven't seen news on the scene, the alley is blocked off from both ends.
