Re: Guy on Fire Sitting on an Eagle Statue Leaps Off Bridge
The second vid's translation(not much info there :) ): "Goddamit!" "He poured something on himself." "Why won't he come down?" "Are you recording too?" "How can he fucking sustain the fire?" "Why don't the firemen put the fire out?" "Check it, Lali(the other guy's name), he's going to jump!" "Record it with the camera!" "Hell fucking jump, he going to fucking jump!" Guy jumps, big bang "Holy mother fucking shit!Lali, he didnt fall into the water you idiot!" "Shit, Lali!" "That was rough!" |

Re: Guy on Fire Sitting on an Eagle Statue Leaps Off Bridge
I will translate another source, this a hungarian newsportal: http://index.hu/bulvar/2010/05/24/ne...angolo_ferfit/ http://index.hu/bulvar/2010/05/23/fe...badsag_hidrol/ In a nutshell: There are no details, since the police still works on this case. There is no postmortem data about the deceased(name, any disorder or medical condition, drug abuse etc)that made public yet. The firefighters tried to talk him down(thats the crane you see in the video), but the guy first threw his wallet in the river then a letter next to the medics on bridge and then he sprayed himself with a flammable substance(probably some kind of cosmetic spray as seen here:http://www.langlovagok.hu/html/galeria/4541_2.shtml), and set himself on fire. At that point the firefighters didnt even try to put the fire out. A firefighter officer, Dobson Tibor, said that they did not prepare for this scenario, because there was no precedent of someone setting oneself on fire on top of a high structure. Since they were not prepared for this, there was no water in the crane's hoses, and they didnt try to solve this, since the water stream is so strong that it would have just pushed the guy down from the statue, so they couldnt do anything. The other source (langlovagok.hu) says way less about the incident(it is a general website of hungarian firefighters). Cheers! |
