@RunTheJulz First let me say that while all these suicides were very tragic, seems I’ve always known that people frequently jump off SF Bridge to commit suicide. I tried very hard to remember how I knew this and what point in life I was at when I came to learn this, but I simply don’t know. A good guess would be middle school. I’ve always loved to read about anything and everything that interests me…
But no, you didn’t create overhype … It was basically just what I’d guessed a typical, educational, video, as sad as it was. I was glad that I watched it. I was specially sad to hear the one guy say the exact time he jumped, he thought to himself, “I don’t want to die.” And sure as he thought he was going to die and he was coming back up towards the surface, he thought it was a shark that brushed up against his leg, (scary), but it turned out that it was a seal swimming around him and his own words said it kept him afloat and he “believed that it was God, that saved his life”. I thought immediately .. “you are exactly right, God spoke to his creation, and put that seal right where it needed to be and directed his swim and a life was saved after jumping off SF Bridge”. Amazing that he survived and has an awesome testimony.
Not much more in the way of thoughts. Thank you much for sharing. 🙂

@Unefilletrescurieuse Thank you for your touching words and your feedback. I too think that seal was “heaven sent” and that it was just not a coincidence. I’m glad that the film didn’t leave you with a negative impression or experience. Because as sad as it is there’s also a positive feeling that I have after seeing it that hopefully it helps to deter more people from doing something to themselves that they don’t actually want to do. Best wishes to you as well. Thank you again. ☺😊
@RunTheJulz You are most welcome 🙂
