| California grad kid falls of Capilano suspension bridge and dies.
Anyone heard the news on this? My mom told me about it today. I heard a grad class in cali had a grad trip that was here, and one of the kids fell off the bridge infront of everyone else and died on impact.. thats really horrible and tragic.. They should really do something about that stupid bridge and make it more safe. Or just close it down, this cant be the first time someone has died on it.
*edit* found it http://www.vancouverite.com/2010/06/...ension-bridge/

they had it wrong it was actually a group there for a band trip. there was about a 4ft. fence that he was leaning on and he fell over it.. but apparently the fence is perfectly fine so they think he must have tried climbing it and fell off.

First, it wasn't the bridge itself the idiot fell from, it was a viewing platform on the other side.
Two, have you ever actually been to the Capilano Suspension Bridge? Do you have any idea how safe it is or isn't, or are you just talking out your ass?
A quick Google search shows *NO* other reports of deaths or even serious injuries on or around the CSB. The only other "incident" even involving people was the woman who dropped her baby from the bridge in 1999, and the baby had only minor injuries.
You want to get self-righteous about something, go picket the area around the Lynn Canyon suspension bridge, where a half-dozen tools off themselves every year diving in the river's pools and rapids and falls.

The cap suspension bridge is about as far from a suspension bridge you can get. It doesn't fucking move or sway or bounce or anything its rigid as fuck. Go to Lynn Canyon.. THAT'S a good suspension bridge. The only way you can fall off the Cap one is to be doing something really fucking stupid and in that you deserve what you get.
Berz out.

Wow a lot of disrespect. He probably weeks from one of the most important events in his life and now the whole grad class probably won't be the same, let alone the family obviously. Yeah he must've been messing around or climbing something but that doesn't mean he deserved to die. RIP. Posted via RS Mobile |

R.I.P
just shows how fragile our lives are. One moment you can be having the time of your life and the next.... *sigh*
This makes me charish my life even more.
