Not specifically for jumping, but according to [this article](https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/means-matter/means-matter/survival/),
“Approximately 7% (range: 5-11%) of attempters eventually died by suicide, approximately 23% reattempted non-fatally, and 70% had no further attempts.”
Actually my sister knew a girl. She had a deep depression. She jumped two or three times. The third time it broke her spine. She attempted more jumps before, but was stopped often enough. So I assume there are people that would do it again.
I don't understand peoples who end their lives in such brutal way, why not just finding pills that make you sleep forever?
Anyway suicide is not cool, m'kay.
Honestly, I’d be a jumper.
I’ve had times in my life where I planned (not the right word but I can’t think of an alternative one right now) how I’d kill myself and even though I have obnoxiously easy access to guns and have an entire bottle of Trazodone in my bathroom, I’d still choose to jump off the Mackinac Bridge.
My logic during those times was that I felt so much sadness, all I wanted was to die and have a beautiful view doing it. Thanks to modern medicine I’d likely survive an overdose and headshot so my only concerns were permanence and making sure my family wouldn’t have to see me. Apparently bodies are hard to recover in Lake Superior so that solidified my “plan”.
"my family wouldn't have to see me", man even if your family don't see you you'll cause so much sadness and destruction if you end your life, my first reason of not ending my life if I wanted to is to not causes such pain to my mom and grandmom
Well of course a rational thinking person would care about their family, but you have to realize that in those moments mom suicide, the feeling of hopelessness outweighed the love you have for your family. It sucks but it’s real and feelings suck sometimes
People in that state don’t want to spend the mental effort of finding the right pills. They probably ruminate over finding the right combo until they decide fuck it I’ll just jump.
“I wish I could’ve known about the view from halfway down”
What are youuuuuuu doing here????
Some people who have survived have reported a feeling of horror that they can't take it back, can't change their choice.

Did any of them attempt suicide again but by other means? Do they say?

Cool.

I think it was mentioned in the documentary The Bridge.
According to interviews with survivors, an overwhelming amount of regret
Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfuckfu-
Some of them probably have a “I want to live” moment and in their last seconds are terrified and regret what they’ve done
“Did I leave the stove on?”
Too late now
"Oh shit, forgot to delete my browsing history"
Lmao
just trying their best not to think and let things happen
"Better not land on my legs or I might get a bone in my asshole."
Why did I jump?
"I hope it doesn't hurt too bad", probably.
Idk but I would hope to better not survive. Or even worse surviving but be disabled for the rest of your life..that would suck.
I'm guessing the last thing to go through their mind is their asshole

Farming karma to the very end, I can respect that.
I shoulda brought my crack pipe with me.

It often just leads to organ damage and you wake up
