Man Commits Suicide at Hoover Dam



I am looking for translators to translate this post into German. Email me if you are interested.

Tagalog translation here (isinalin sa Tagalog).


This video is seriously crazy! Some people are videotaping the huge concrete dam at Hoover Dam on the Colorado River in Nevada, USA. Suddenly, an lunatic, apparently a young man, commits suicide by throwing himself over the guardrails and down the concrete face of the dam.

It's a long way to the bottom of Hoover Dam from the roadway on top - 726 feet. The fall down the concrete is so rough and brutal that it apparently rips the top of the young man's head off! We can see what appears to be the top of the head fall off and then roll separately down the side of the dam. Afterward, the guy appears to be missing the top of his head. The fall down the dam basically scalped him!

People are screaming and yelling as he falls. Surely this suicide must have been successful; he was clearly killed by the fall down the face of the dam.
