henda11 0 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Not sure if there is a topic on this, but one of the couriers at work the other day was telling me about the bloke who jump from the top of the Tyne Bridge the other day. anyway, the courier was telling me how the bloke was up the top with a bag of cans, and was flexing his arms/muscles as if he were being cocky, then it got to the point where the fire crew were extending the ladder toward him to try and grab him or talk him down and he just jumped. Poor bloke, but at the same time attention seeking prick. I cannot for the life of me put up with suicidal people who will kill themselves infront of other members of the public, because i find it so fucking selfish because its going to effect those in the public who saw it for life.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 Someone was threatening to throw themselves off the High Level a couple of Sundays ago when I was passing. Samaritans trying to talk him back over the barrier. Looked like he'd had a few. Didn't hear any more about it so I assumed it was a cry for help and they got him down.

NJS 4355 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 Suicide makes me think of train disruption nowadays and on that note did anyone see that story about the Northampton train that caught fire the other day? Only saw a brief report but a lass died trapped in the toilet - horrible way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 I used to work at the Marsden Grotto and people used to jump off the cliffs on a regular basis. One guy jumped landed on the roof of the restaurant, broke both his legs and a number of other bones but survived. I got sick of seeing blankets, tents of coffins on the beach.

Kevin S. Assilleekunt 1 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 It'd be a lot better for everyone if more suicidal people turned to auto-asphyxiation. Not as messy as a jump, and a relatively pleasant way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't commit suicide he fell i should know he is my uncle he was protesting so next time before you say things like make sure you have the facts as he was a lovely man he was not selfish and never mind the public what about his family as his mother and father has had to say good bye to there son and he was not a fucking prick ok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dansymc15 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 Sorry for your loss. I don't think anyone meant anything personal. Well if someone calls him a prick that is personal maybe they should keep things like that to themselves and what i was trying to get across was it was not suicide yes maybe he was stupid for going on the bridge like that but he didn't intend to die that day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom 14011 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 I had a friend a few years ago who died in a car crash and he was in the newspaper and everyone had an opinion - it just makes it worse and it doesn't help the grief. It would be best to ignore people who have nothing to do with it or know nothing about the man. Don't take it to heart and look after your family and the people who need it.

dansymc15 0 Posted April 20, 2011 Share Posted April 20, 2011 did he have a bag of cans and tickets to the gun show then, what was he protesting? looked on the bbc site etc figured such things would be on the news, No he didn't have tickets to a gun show yes he had a few cans but he was not drunk and if it wasn't so windy he would probs still be here as the wind made his balance unsteady Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
