chinese guy pushes potential suicidal guy off a bridge

...and they both failed.

i know this is probably not okay to post with kind of a joking tone, but a few days ago, a man heavily in debt was contemplating suicide on a bridge for a few hours. frustrated, some other guy came up to him, shook his hand, and pushed him off. he was angry, i guess, about the traffic.

he fell 26ft and landed on an air mattress that was laid out in case he did jump. he didn't die, but, possibly worse, suffered serious spinal injuries. and i can't imagine that pushing someone off a bridge really cleared up traffic much...
