I wondered why I keep on getting adverts for latex gimp suits.... ????

 

Seriously though, from the OP I think that it's a good assumption that this was a suicide attempt since his friend said that he has mental health problems.  If you suffered from a life-threatening heart condition, it would be prudent not to travel.  I would put mental health issues in the same category.  If you have suicidal thoughts then you really should not be travelling here - you should be seeking treatment in your home country. 

 

Jumping off a building carries the risk of killing others walking past (it has happened before). Having a cardiac arrest only risks your own life.  For this reason, I regard 'jumpers' as selfish (although I understand that they may not be thinking clearly at the time).

Oh, he would only need to do that if the fall had led to his death.

I don't get it

Ok, let me explain. It was pure sarcasm. I said that he only had to tell if he died, but as we all know, dead people do not speak. OK?

Something's dodgy singaporeans are used to living in high rises surely they know what to do on the fourth floor

The first question I'd ask is the height of the balcony railing. 

 

Those of us accustomed to nanny state building codes have been sheltered from the risk of going over a low railing.  Not hard to imagine someone leaning too much, like we were able to safely do back home.

One lucky dude.

 

Hope the shock gave him a deeper taste for living.

on YouTube, I, most of the time, get ads in Thai for products that have absolutely nothing to do with what I watch there

Perhaps keep an eye on the GF / Wife?

 

Because my experience with ads on google chrome, is that immediately after I search for something like "cooking pots" I get a lot of ads for cooking pots!
