Re: The Golden Gate Bridge

Thanks for sharing
A documentary you might find interesting:
The Bridge (2006)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0799954/plotsummary

Quote:
The Bridge focuses on the large number of suicides that occur each year at the Golden Gate Bridge, capturing footage of the suicides and interviewing family members. Also interviewed are people who have attempted suicide at the bridge, witnesses of the suicides, and a jump survivor.

The movie was shot with multiple cameras pointed at a notorious suicide spot on the bridge during 2004. It captured 23 people as they took their final plunge, and then offers interviews with grieving families.
Here is the article that inspired this film
Letter from California Jumpers
The fatal grandeur of the Golden Gate Bridge

The Bridge 1/9 to 9/9

Makes you wonder what's going through their minds/what they're thinking as they jump.

Re: The Golden Gate Bridge

feel pretty sad after watching that, especially the old guy in the red cap.
I guess you wouldnt drown or anything, the force of you hitting the water at that velocity would pretty much shatter every bone in the body.

for what ever reason they chose to commit suicide, its never the only choice. there are people are there which can and will help if you give them the chance and open up.

rest in peace, guys
