Get Real Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 With this increase in the numbers of jumpers in high storey malls, there will soon be signs at the entrance that parachute is required to be weared by every shopper. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldrunner Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 I believe the lack of "Jumping ropes" for little girls would stop the adults from jumping from Malls and Hotels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

observer90210 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 strange........when a farang "falls" from the 19th floor, the suicide verdict is pronounced by the Police, before even he hits the ground.... ...here, could one speculate that the cops are going to do their job so naturally hard to say if the lady fell or jumped ?? ...not to mention the reputation of the mall and perhaps some background negotiations, if there was a safety flaw....? ? ??.....but of course...I am totally wrong..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't just fall, you'd have to climb over the railings first. So she jumped. If the railings aren't high enough, it's quite possible to get your center of mass out over the rail and have a tragedy if you lose your traction. I have seen people leaning way out over the railings to wave at friends below... And, without CCTV to rule out a criminal act, there's always the possibility she was assisted over the railing, even if it was just people horsing around to get a video for social media. In any case, RIP to the victim and condolences to the loved ones who are grieving for her. There's no imaginable scenario where this isn't a tragedy. And none where jokes are appropriate.

gk10002000 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 amazing the police actually said in the linked article that he can't rule on suicide or accident yet until he sees the security tapes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Not aimed at the post I quoted) Every time someone 'falls' the same old 'the railings are too low' nonsense is trotted out. Someone show me a railing that is too low in Thailand as I've never seen one in the 10 years I've been here. I've certainly never seen one you could get your center of mass over, unless you really climbed up and leant over. I'm 6'1" making me pretty tall for Thailand and I've never seen a railing I could fall over without some effort on my part. And how do you know there was no CCTV? Why do you need to suggest she could have been pushed? Is it not enough that people regularly choose to commit suicide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The western press self censor suicide, because unless it's a celebrity, it is generally not in the public interest, as it ENCOURAGES more suicide. But this being Thailand, they only recently stopped publishing unpixellated death scenes in full colour in the papers as it is. RIP to the lady, the post was not intended to be insensitive, more a critique of the press purience here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
