Three other people were injured that day from jumping, and the ambulance that was called wasn't even called for the heroine of our story. I don't know what the denominator is, but it doesn't sound good.
I do agree though, that jumping or not wasn't the main issue here.
- axod 17y agoParents often do silly things for their kids :/ It's sort of beside the point as you say.
- pyre 17y agoSeems like it was a 'hot spot' because people used it often. Sure she says that other people were injured, but how badly? It's possible that her injury was the worse injury anyone has ever sustained from jumping there. If that's the case, and parents still encourage/let their children jump from that bridge, I would say it's a problem. (Not that I would ever let my kids jump from a 50' bridge, at least not until they're old enough to make decisions on their own -- I'm not advocating 'babying' your children after they've left the nest.)
