[Soulless Angel]

It's times like this suicide in a public place can be deemed as thoughtless, but by heck,

Five-month-old baby is crushed to death by suicidal man

The man who jumped from the building in Voronezh, Russia, died at the scene while the five-month-old baby boy was pronounced dead in an ambulance.

On my, I will never u how can someone take a child's life, A baby just 5 months. Too lost for words.

It's horrible. I hate to mention it, but it's the complete fault of the government for not allowing peaceful exit. If people were allowed to die with dignity, this kind of tragedy would be most likely avoided :(

Yea, unfortunately the take away will likely be more along the lines that suicide is a selfish act, the man is a horrible person, "mental health help", etc.
They'll never learn the more obvious lesson these types of events should be teaching them. Actually, I half expected this article to be about a murder-suicide, not an accident, and even the former wouldn't surprise me. People snap in moments of desperation and suffocation, where there is no peaceful way out.

There's a 0.001% risk that a nuclear reactor will blow up, so just burn fossil fuels instead.

I agree with you. This is the gov't or society fault and the man shouldn't be blamed. I don't want ppl to die during other ppl suicide but I don't feel sympathy for those traumatized by it. If they hate being disturbed then for their sake alone they should legalized euthanasia for everyone who wants to die but I don't know how much traumatization is needed to convince them.

Oh my...how high are the chances of that happening ? wtf

That's why jumping should not happen in populated areas, doesn't matter how desperate you are.

Yeah, you should jump from the skyscrapers in the middle of the forest instead.

I believe cliffs exists and there are some higher towers/buildings in lesser populated areas. You'd need to get there first but a little work to be able to ctb is to be expected.
Plus nobody is really forced to jump - you could try partial or overdose or SN - if you do it - do it safely.

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

you could try partial

 

[stygal]

Its true though, troll all you want

If you need the goverment to don't be an asshole then you have a problem, and it's not the desire to die.

I'm sorry for the mother. That's too much bad luck.

 

[aneurysm]

I am so disappointed in partial. Stuck trying to figure out how to keep the rope on the right spot after falling unconscious. I don't understand why that Stan guy said it was lethal

but yeah, it's better to do everything in power to avoid harming others while CTBying, also because it could give suicidal people an even worse reputation and be deemed as evil and selfish (oh wait, it already is seen that way. but you get what i mean)

Checking first is a good idea since jumpers will not want anything to break the fall.

I agree with you both!
This news is heart-breaking and terrible, though. Poor baby.
I just want the world/gov to allow people like us to die in peace and fast.

 

[Deleted member 16907]

this is really heartbreaking, poor baby :(
i hope the mother is alright. that would be so devastating.

Some Final Destination shit right there. Wrong time and place, should be titled Suicidal Man accidentally kills baby. If you're jumping always aim for the back of the building so you don't splatter on the sidewalk where people are likely to roam.

 

[LunarPyotr]

This is actually really unfortunate situation here.
The guy probably didn't looked down first before jumping and the mother was at the wrong place in a wrong time.

 

[imsorrythatimhere]

This is just so unfortunate

 

[hellodarkness]

And this is why I'm taking my Ol Yeller ass out to the mountains. Poor baby :(

Just read the story, heartbreaking for all 3 involved. On a sidenote, not to try and trivialise the tragedy, it's probably a bit morbid that I've seen all the FD films.
