Yeah, people always cheer for these videos, which I completely understand.
I don't think they understand that there is at least an equal chance that all this did was prolong and exacerbate this guys suffering.
However, in this particular case, clearly this guy didn't want to die. You don't stand on the edge of oblivion, with the intent to die, only to be distracted by random people and start arguing with them.
Could have been scared of the process of dying more than dying itself. There's no guarantee it's fast or painless, or even effective, especially if falling from a great height.
right, but that's the point. he picked a public way of dying with not 100% certainty, and he was up there for a while. which means he was not 100% sure. people who reallly want to do it will do it.
