live from the Story Bridge

[shaggy]

hey guys,

have been watching this poor bugger all day. This is the view from the office.

Could be a long night if he doesn't come down soon. [img size=400]http://www.australianfishing.com.au/media/kunena/attachments/legacy/images/IMG_5787a.JPG

That's about the hundredth person . I'm still awaiting the day a AFO member brings up a body.

Though Jeff gets my vote with his trolled up bag of cats caught in Breaky Creek if I remember correctly .

don't remind me i can still smell them:sick:

from what i gather about the traffic congestion this guy is causing either way, up or down he's probably got a short life expectancy.

Jeff: A bag of kittens eh. I must say, I've caught a range of interesting things in that creek (shorts, briefcase, numerous other human clothing) I thought it was only time before either one of my mates, or someone I know brings up a body of some sort!

I wonder if we could fish from the bridge? You know, take that tour up the bridge........

well if anyone fished the river on the weekend they had a pretty good chance of getting a body i reckon.

as i saw the water police and SES going up and down the river bank from the story bridge down past new farm park extremely slow. there were several boats out looking and several SES people walking along the river bank. i think they were looking for someone that jumped off the bridge last thursday night cause i saw a lane closed at night on the bridge and police cars there looking over the railing at about 8pm.

There have been quite a few suicides off the Story Bridge recently.

One guy I kind of new:(

Bloody jumpers - hold up the traffic for ever.

Was caught on the storey bridge about 18 months ago with this idiot threatening to jump about 7:30 on a thursday morning. Peak hour traffic completely ground to a stop.

All the stuck commuters started chanting \"jump you bastard\" That shook him up a bit, and he came down. They only want attention, otherwise they would just jump.

Had a friend whose husband jumped off the gateway quite a few years ago. Drove his garbage truck to the top, climbed on top and jumped, (anti suicide rail was in place by then, so had to climb on truck to get over rail) all over in about 30 seconds apparently.

Biggest problem is apparently when they jump they take their keys with em. Have to wait for a tow truck to cleat the bridge.
