Not sure. Someone said they got fined just for standing on the highest peak while another said nothing happened to them even though they were standing there looking miserable. I'd scout the area beforehand. Maybe the patrollers have a schedule of some sort. Someone ctb there a few months ago so the place isn't patrolled 24/7.Don't they always sporadically patrol? Is it heightened now for some reason?
That's strange. Never heard of anyone being fined. I didn't think the Samaritans had that kind of power? Do you mean fined by the police?They didn't make any attempt to ctb( I mean they were just standing there) so fined. Just go to beachy head at different times. Pretend you're just sightseeing by bringing a camera. Not everyone who visits there is suicidal. It is a beautiful place after all.
You can have mine if you like, after I am done in Sept.What a majestic looking place. Whoever dares to jump from this has some big fucking balls. I could use a pair.
God is good, amen.
Hello I sent you a private messageI don't know what it is like right now coming out of lockdown but ctb there is no problem. Patrols are sporadic and only the car driving up and down the road. In the day it can be very busy if the weather is good and lots of people take pix right on the edge and peak over and nobody questions it. There is no police (obviously) unless they are called if there is an incident. There are many walkers and nature enthusiasts but also plenty of teenagers and families just having a beautiful day out. I don't know why people keep spreading myths, I have been there many times so plan mt ctb, find best spot etc and just got to wait bow for lockdown to be lifted. It is mesmerising and beautiful and tbh doesn't even look that high, but then I am not afraid of heights. Wouldn't be suitable for someone who is.

Hi Beachedwhale, I don't seem to have one? Do you want to try again? Happy to chat ❤Hello I sent you a private message
Agree. I was there late at night and a few hikers walked by and we said hello but that was it. They just went on their way, it was already dark. Patrol car went by but only on the road. As long as you don't leave your car in one of the car parks after night it's all good. They ll only check your reg and tey to find you if your car is there over night.I absolutely agree.
It was me who said I stood by the edge looking miserable for half an hour and nothing happened. It was twilight and I definitely looked dodgy but even on a cold evening in the dark there was the occasional dog walker or jogger walking past.
I have no clue why people act like you turn up there and chaplains jump on you if you even walk up near the cliff edge. I promise that's not true! So many people go there all the time like @Viov said!! There are several parking spots along the route of the cliffs between Birling Gap and Eastbourne.
I would totally recommend going to scope the place out before you ctb as it's a longish stretch of cliff.. you need the highest spot which I heard was between the two lighthouses .. You see the patrol cars every now and again going up and down the roads.. maybe they walk along by the cliff sometimes trying to spot people about to ctb but if you just tell them you are there waiting for the sunset to take pics or whatever then what can they do?
Sent you one before and also just nowHi Beachedwhale, I don't seem to have one? Do you want to try again? Happy to chat ❤

Yes! It's always been my backup plan (in case of emergency - close eyes and run towards edge). Providing you do your research and find the highest drop - it's pretty low-risk.
Exactly, it's a tourist spot after all, and was a very popular "day out" pre-covid (when travelling out of your area wasn't questioned).There are many walkers and nature enthusiasts but also plenty of teenagers and families just having a beautiful day out.

Not a reliable or painless way to go. N is the only way to do it.
Not sure why you say that. It's fast and guaranteed if done at the right spot.Not a reliable or painless way to go. N is the only way to do it.
