yes i thought it best to avoid seeing such things. It's not exactly good entertainment despite my posting on here about it.

I don;t think he will do anything.

Well i didn;t see anything reported so i'm guessing nothing news worthly like a man jumping off a building happened. :)

They never report suicides (unless it is a high profile person).
Velvet
Posts: 790

Yes, quite true. Some research (although strongly contested by many) indicates that when suicides are reported by the media there is a dramatic increase in the number of suicides shortly thereafter. I wonder why hearing about someone else commit suicide inspires copycat suiciding. I would have thought that it would have quite the opposite effect.

However, I am quite sceptical that you could accurately ascertain from statistics whether a jump in suicide was because of the reporting of another or because of other world events that may also coincide with that time. I think suicide is probably not copied but more so inspired by, for instance, another bombing OS or something. Who knows.

awww. I was hoping it was the GE money building where I work so I wouldn't have to go in :(

Heh thats the building our family owns.

And why is everyone presuming he was comitting suicide? Maybe he was just base jumping! (why am I presuming it was a 'he')!

post the gif of the guy who tries to base jump off a radio tower...

having no brains he climbs up first.. then while standing on top of the 2' x 2' tower.. starts putting on his jump suit..

unfortunatly.. he takes a step to the side as he puts other leg into the suit.. and only half stands and the edge.. his foot slips off the side and he and his half put on shute goes after him..

good 5 secs of free fall before the good ol spalt at the bottom

base jumping is bad mmkay
