Agree wi shaz, a mate from work did it from viaduct in mid 70s. No real way to stop tragedies like this.:(
 
How tragic is such an incident, whatever the reason that drove her to it, the family will be feeling a great loss, such a shame whenever it happens.
 
there of course other buildings like you say... however the arndale seems to be a magnet of late

Yes, plenty of buildings, maybe the car park is the easiest? Just too many victims, how awful that folk are driven to it.
:(
 
I do think that some places are too accessible as potential jump spots. Yes the viaduct is always available but the more obstacles you put in the path of a person with suicidal tendencies surely the more time you give them to reconsider nd perhaps change their mind?
 
What an absolute tragedy for the whole family. My dads sister commited suicide during the 1950's at the age of 23. My dad never really spoke about it when we were growing up, I think it was too painful but it affected all of us. Noone knows what someone else is thinking and if someone is determined , they will always find a way. So sorry for the people left behind.

I used to mate out with a lad when I lived over Hassy, sure Jen would have known him, not long after I move back to Ossy I heard he'd hung himself from the bridge over the motorway near his home, was a really decent bloke, never did find out what went wrong, was a tragedy
 
yeah I knew him jaysay ... it happened a week after he carried me round all the pubs in accrington because I was on crutches and couldn't keep up .. none of us could believe it .. he'd been in the pub that night laughing and carrying on .. and the next thing we knew ...

Some folk call these people selfish, that to me is them being selfish, just because they would rather call the poor sod for being driven, (inside), to do it, than trying to understand the need they actually felt they had.
Of course it's better if you can recognise a loved ones pain/hurt, but sometimes nobody knows and people go to extreme lengths to prove that they are ill.
I hope anyone's god will forgive them the torment.
 
some people also call them cowards as well as selfish an din some cases its acurate to do so.

some people choose suicide because they dont want to face terminal illness and pain where as others choose suicide because their girlfriend left them or vice versa

many reasons as to why folk top themselves ,not all of them deserve sympathy

Of course they do, you have been through many things in your life and been strong enough and determined enough to overcome it, did you do it on your own or did you have help?

They may have thought there was no help or not been as strong as you.
 
like i said theres many reasons for folk topping themselves

folk who break the law then do themselves in rather than go to prison,folk who commit awfull deeds to others then top themselves before it gets out rather than face public shame.

cowards is what id call em and if one of teh above slung themselves off a roof id be more concerned about the clean up bill and the victims that never get to see justice

dunno why folk need to make such a public display im sticking by my view that theres no need for kids and innocent people to witness someones demise and if they are thinking straight enough to make their way to such a public place then they can think straight enough not to make such a spectacle of their demise.

folk dont seem to remember teh truck driver who dies because somone jumped off a bridge into tehir windscreen
