PHUKET: Quick action prevented another young man from jumping off one of the bridges joining Phuket with the mainland last night (Nov 16).

 

Police at Tha Chatchai received a call from the young man’s parents, warning them that their son Kittsak (last name withheld), 19 years old, was on his way after calling his girlfriend to say goodbye, and to tell her that he was going to jump off one of the bridges.

 

Soon at the scene to assist officers were Panuphan Jindapol, Phu Yai Baan (village head) of Moo 5, Mai Khao, and rescue workers from the Kusoldharm Phuket Foundation stationed at the bridge, led by Acting Lt Wanlop Boonchan.

That damned dugong has really set a trend.......???? 

I recommend setting up a check point at each end of the bridge to ensure motorcyclists are wearing face masks, parachute with static line and life jacket before crossing.

Nice of you to make fun of a young man who is obviously in distress.
Depression can strike at any age, I know.
Hopefully you will never suffer from it, but if you do, remember your own callousness.
