Funny local story

[Frog]

So he was up there for 7 hours and never jumped? Nothing more than a silly old attention seeker, inconveniencing everyone around him and wasting thousands of pounds of taxpayers money.

If I was in charge of the local police I'd tell him he had 20 minutes to either go ahead and jump, come down on his own, or we're sending someone up to push him...

There is a film (not sure of it's name) about people jumping from the San Fransico bridge. They spent a year filming people commiting suicide, the rescue attempts etc.

What they quickly found was that 99% of those that actually did it, would just get out there car walk straight upto the barrier and jump. Those that didn't do it would stand on the edge for a couple of hours and then be talked down, more a cry for help.

I love this story though,

It certainly is link bait gold for the woman who owns the bouncy castle company. Makes me want to come up with a completely fake one of my own. Any suggestions on how a payday loan or discount voucher saved someones life?
