Re: Suicide Jumpers From The Movie, The Bridge
You will definately breake bones. If the impact does not kill you, you will drown. If you are not killed either way, there is always hypothermia to get you. I believe that a couple people have actually lived after a jump from the bridge. I am not 100% on that. I really don't see how anyone can survive it.

Re: Suicide Jumpers From The Movie, The Bridge
The height at which you fall from plus the surface tension of the water causes a higher impact upon entering the water. So yes, from that height, it's like hitting concrete. But, there have been cases in which people have merely suffered broken ankles after plunging into water from a heights like that shown in the video. There has also been research to find out if the impact is at a lesser degree if the surface tension was broken before entering the water(say, throwing some cinder blocks down and jumping directly after them).

Re: Suicide Jumpers From The Movie, The Bridge
DAm, that last guy new what he was doing. LIKE WTF, theres ppl standing there, and walking buy, not 1 SOUL, tried to stop anyone from jumping. IT was like they were a audience for the jumpers. I wonder if their bodies broke apart when they hit the water. |

Re: Suicide Jumpers From The Movie, The Bridge
If you havent seen this movie and enjoy documentaries then you should enjoy this... it's quite sad sometimes and some of the footage brings up similar emotions as viewing threads on DR..... The Bridge is a 2006 documentary film by Eric Steel that tells the stories of a handful of individuals who committed suicide at the Golden Gate Bridge in 2004. The film was inspired by an article entitled "Jumpers," written by Tad Friend appearing in The New Yorker magazine in 2003. 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 19 people as they took their final plunge, and then offers interviews with grieving families.   |

Re: Suicide Jumpers From The Movie, The Bridge
I watched it all and thought it pretty cool; definitely interesting and worthwhile. And it's done in a raw sort of format, straight from the mouths of those left behind.  |
