#Man jumps off golden gate bridge 2021 free#
“In the midst of my free fall, I said to myself these words, words I thought no one would ever hear me repeat: ‘What have I done? I don’t want to die. Out of the survivors, 19 have stepped forward saying something along the lines of, “As soon as I let go of the railing, I realized that I made a mistake.” Himes is one of the 2% who survive jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge. “I dont know, I guess I just had to die.” “I just jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge.” Himes was pulled out of the water, and all he heard was, “Hey kid, do you know what you just did?”
The Coast Guard keeps a watch on the waters under the bridge because so many people flock there to attempt the same deed that Himes just tried to do. It was four seconds later that impacted the water. He reached for the rail, but it wasn’t there. On September 25, 2000, Himes took a bus to The Golden Gate bridge, and minutes later he jumped over the railing. Kevin Himes was 19 when he made the decision to end his life. Hopefully you’re not affected by these thoughts yourself, but if you ever felt depressed that you wanted to push yourself over the edge, hopefully reading this blog will change your outlook on that. For some people, these thoughts plague their minds every day. Many people are able to seek help through counseling or support from family and friends, but others unfortunately do not. The suicide rate in the US has been the highest its ever been in the past 10 years, and suicide is one of the top ten causes of death. In 2012, alone, 30 thousand Americans made the decision to end their own life.
