Please tell me you're joking.

Of course there were lots of police in the area, the mall is attached to a police station.

That picture is tough to look at. RIP :(

Kev

not surprised how none of those crystal mall security guards are there to help. I rmb there was one guy there that wears a baret with his piss yellow uniform.

call me crazy but i heard this incident happened the day before (Thurs)?
i usually expect new like this to be posted more swiftly on RS

its prolly less them a handful of people who saw it.. doesnt get busy in there.. the person should have picked a busier place, like METROTOWN! its only a few blocks away

haha how do you know.. could be a pale asian guy... how often you see white people at crystal mall??

But its pretty sad how people would suicide over something silly...

Not as sick as some of the by standers just standing there lol.

What time did this happen? I was there aroound six and it seems normal.

mods can you add a spoiler tag to that picture.

^

edited added spoiler... thanks for the tip cptn picard

On May 27th, 2011 at approximately 1:00 PM, Burnaby RCMP were called to the Crystal Mall located at Willingdon and Kingsway for a report that a man had fallen over a railing inside the mall. When officers arrived on scene, they learned that a man had fallen six stories to a concrete floor below. The officers conducted CPR on the victim until paramedics and fire fighters arrived and took over first aid. Tragically, the man could not be revived.

Investigation reveals that the the man, a 31-year-old Burnaby resident, took his own life by jumping over a railing six stories above the point where he was found.

The RCMP does not normally issue news releases on suicides, however this event took place in front of approximately 100 people, and there have been numerous media enquiries about the incident.

The man's family have been advised, and the victim's name will not be released at their request.

R I P

the GF is standing there

"should have bought me that bag"

RIP
Apparently it was suicide and internals exploded

weak sauce
just some pansy who couldn't take lifes challenges and no Lexus involved

What were you gonna do? Push away the paramedics and start reviving the guy yourself? This has nothing to do with bystander effect.

i think the thats just a bystander. the gf is probably the one holding his head in a doggy style position wearing a white thong.

RIP: If you want to criticize please do this first: Walked a mile in that man's shoes.

Oh shit... RIP.

That pic is kinda unreal...

The one with the long(ish) hair? He got fired for starting a fight at CHQ :alone:

Why are people making rude remarks and joking about the guys death? Like come on none of you knew what he went through, thats a human life why are people so senseless nowadays. Even if u r being sarcastic, thats still a joke made upon someones death. This makes me even sicker.

I feel nothing for people who suicide, its their choice to die and the will of their own to go through with it. I could understand if someone pushed him off but just jumping because you most likely hit a road bump in life.. Natural selection at its finest.

i understand, but people can still keep their stupid remarks to themselves.

If you treat these incidents as if the dead was a family or friend then these comments wouldn't appear.

RIP...

holy fuck. last time i was there having a smoke on the food court balcony it looked like u could jump to the other balcony.... maybe this guy thought he could do it??? if i remember properly the balcony beside the other one was about a few feet... someone confirm if the balconys are a few feet from each other...

i remember i was thinking damn maybe i could jump to the other side,,, but obviously i didnt do it... maybe this guy thought he could do it??

If my family member or friend did this sure I would be sad, but I'd be sad because they chose such a STUPID choice in their life.

Its not a stupid remark its the truth.
