I was sitting next to a guy on a plane, and I asked him what he did for a living. He was physiologist, and he was traveling around talking to people who really tried to kill themselves. He had interviewed over 100 people who had jumped off the golden gate bridge. Dozens jump a year, but more then you would think live. He wanted to talk to them because these are people who were not looking for attention, or anything. They really just wanted to die.
Here is the part that stuck with me.
He said the fall from the top to the water is about 6 seconds. And every person who jumped, everyone, said the second there feet left the bridge, they realized they didn't want to die.
This means for the 95% of all the people who jump, the last 6 seconds of there life is living with the realization that they want to live, but just killed themselves. Horrible thing to think about.
So, yes. Save them.
