Can You Jump Into A River To Save A Stranger Who Tries To Commit Suicide? by Nobody: 6:19pm On Dec 02, 2012
I was driving through a bridge in Dublin City Centre on a cold winter nite of temperature in the minus, I saw huge crowd of people gathering with police and other emergency services, I then stopped to find out what d matter is!.

I discovered that a young woman felt suicidal and jumped in, fortunately, one man out of over 200 on looker went in to save this girl before d rescue team could arrive unfortunately she died the next morning. This got me to ask this question. . . .

Please no lying here if you can't then you can't, if you can then you can. For me I can't. Better don't respond than to lie please.

Can u jump in to save her knowing fully well that she jumped in intentionally and beside you don't know who she is. can u jump in to save her ?

If I can swim and have the rescue techniques..why not? If I don't have any ...why putting myself in danger

Only if I can swim and I'm absolutely sure that the drowning person will not take me down with him!

If i can swim then why not. But at the moment i even feel like i'm drowning when using the shower, how much more diving into a river.

The fear of water is the beginning of wisdom for me. Na just recently I get liver to look inside swimming pool, jumping into a larger pool is like Nigeria sending a man to the Moon (Never).

I have saved a lady that was almost drowning before and I am positive if the opportunity that I will do it again. There is this high after saving someone's life, mind you not just about the high but the life

Rescuing a drowning person is nt an easy task u cn just embark on, learning hw to swim is very easy compare to rescue. So, pls dnt practice that if ur nt a good swimmer b4 u bcome a victim too.
