On Thanksgiving day, November 27, 2008 around 14:25 a distraught man climbs the Coplay-Northampton bridge. Coplay and Northampton police arrive and immediately shut down the bridge as the man stands on the steel trestle over the bridge on the Northampton side. Police try to talk him down.

First, It appears his mom shows up with his two kids. A few minutes later, his spouse or ex shows up and makes things worse. Eventually, after about 40 minutes, he slides down to safety. Northampton EMS takes him to a local hospital.

Right under the trestle is railroad tracks. It would have been a hard hit if he would have jumped or accidently fell. 'tis the season...

  • When he came down, he should've gone WEEEEEEE!!!!

  • he was pissed at this camera man,lol :D On a serious note though, I feel horrible that those little kids were brought to the scene. What if he would've jumped? those poor kids would have witnessed it

  • you should have jumped dumbass!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hey at least he got a nice slide at the end :D.

    Sorry to see that things within the lives of others become so horrid to where this option is the only option. He sees like a strong man on the breaking point and I believed he couldn't have left his children with that on their minds and futures. We all need to understand stand that even the hardest of times there is always a better way out...Easier said than done right? Find happiness all race of the world. Please.

  • society treats people without any dignity that act like "Fuck off and die", but once somebody stands on a roof they turn into the life protectors, no honor in that. Let those die with honor who decide to do so!

  • Those poor boys, having to watch their father like that.

  • @Caveman135 or its his family?

  • This gives me a amazing prank idea lol
