no, it did not end up well and he ended quite dead on the account of losing a head, literally. and an arm. but that, of course, is the least of his worries.

Un chofer de la ruta A, ficha 339, todav?a no sale del asombro, luego que anoche le cayera sobre su cristal delantero una persona que se lanz? desde el puente peatonal Mateo Pel?n, en el la avenida Mirador del Yaque, o Circunvalaci?n. La v?ctima fue identificada como Fausto Manuel N??ez, de 43 a?os, quien muri? instant?neamente caer dentro del carro y perder un brazo y la cabeza.

asombro? a bit of an understatement.

Slightly off topic.... but about jumping........

Years ago in Toronto, a man tried to commit suicide by jumping from the 8th floor apartment.
Fell into some pine trees - broke a leg and arm.

He dragged himself back up to the apartment to try again...... nope, locked out.

In his fragile mental state, he had a breakdown..... screaming, crying- the works.

Neighbours call the police who take him away and book him.

Seems it's illegal to attempt suicide in Canada.

Jailed for years.

Couldn't even kill himself - pathetic............. there is some black humour here and irony

attempted suicide is a crime in many countries. it is not a case that it is your life, and you can take it if you want to.

I always like the Peggy Lee song.... Is That All There Is?

She laments the various disappointments in her life and then anticipates the listeners' question...
Why not end it all?

Oh No, she says, I'm not ready for that final disappointment........

Good song.........

Kindly stay on topic and DR related, slightly off topic is still off topic.

Great pictures. You really do deliver. He really did fall head over heels. Whenever I binge drink for two days or more I stay away from bridges, overpasses and windows. So far it has worked fine. Some good free advice.

This reminds of of this story on Reader's Digest about this lady who found out her hubby was cheating on her and decided to "end it all" by jumping off her apartment window; it turns out she ended up falling on her husband, who was the one who died instead.

Hearsay:

Story going around in the "barrio" near where it happened today is that the man was in heavy debt and jumped.
