He wasn't screaming for help. He looks calm, peaceful and not panicking. He wasn't even calling for attention. We don't know what is the real reason... May this man rest in peace. 🙏
@@otonielaguilar6698 oh really you know what happens after you die huh? Only ALLAH "the real GOD" can judge what was in his heart and what he may have been going through.
His calm demeanor shows everything… He wasn’t hanging for dear life, he was waiting for the right heigh and thinking his last thoughts. Rest In Peace to another hurt and lost soul
Mormon narcisism and Mormon toxic ways of perceiving the world do way more damage to people here in Utah than witnessing a human death. I'm not denying seeing this could traumatize someone, perhaps especially a child, but the main traumatizing factors in Utah are related to the toxic wicked ways Mormons are prone to view the world and how they destroy relationships and abuse others based on how they view the world
Or did he fall? I'm not debating the intended outcome. But there are few people (if any?) That could hold on for 7 mins from end to end. He could of let go or he could of held on as long as he could until his grip gave out and he fell.
Dude wanted to die that's all it is ppl using all these theories like bruh just didn't Wana live anymore but it's kinda effed up he chose to take his life in that way for attention
It looks more like a suicide than an accident. He was motionless, he didnt appear to be stressed, he was hanging on but looked almost despondent. However this came about, it has the same ending and I feel so badly for his loved ones.
If it was a suicide, I cannot pity the "loved ones." Chances are they contributed to the circumstances that drove him to suicide. In most cases, they do.
@@theresedavis2526 everybody and each situation is entirely different. We have no way of knowing what may have contributed, it's usually a number of factors but I worked a suicide hotline and to just blurt out that it's the families fault is cruel, thoughtless and reckless! Families go through a living nightmare that they never wake up from because of mental illness which is almost always the main contributor. Yes, there are cases of abuse that can be a factor in somebody choosing to take their own life but I can tell you that many people who attempt or successfully commit suicide leave brokenness and devastation behind for the people who love them.
@@lichiehrb she’s just a sh!tty bitter old bigot hag cuz Russian Orange boy lost to an old sleepy guy he kept making fun of. Now she’s bitter and lacks empathy. Just like Russian Orange Boy
If you have ever been on one of these rides you would know you have to actually try and get out, this guy knew exactly what he was doing. Rest in Peace I hope you’re at peace
That's the problem we need to let someone know we are struggling get help from anywhere talk to someone ring help lines talk to God pour your heart out to him he cares.
The guy is facing the wrong way if he'd 'slipped' under the bar. He's hanging in a way that would have been done intentionally by climbing out. The video of him not panicking or calling for help shows that was totally intentional.
it wasn't a suicide, he had a backpack and was most likely planning on further visits. he was just stupid and wanted to show off. too bad darwin had an appointment with him
The man knew exactly what he was doing, he looked so calm and it gives me chills just thinking about it. This is so sad and suicide awareness needs to be vocalized more 🥺❤️
@@matildauebel7599 hey you don't get in that position unless you unbelt and hang off the side , this was no accident . he had some issues , still it's so sad he didn't get some help . RIP .
I must think disturbing sh. Everytime I'm in something involving heights: how far can I go up & still survive if I fell. All the math I ever took: idk but mph w/ something about height w/ something about weight. Also, rip
This man didn’t “slide or fall” from his seat…he knew exactly what he was doing…he didn’t scream or yell for help he was so calm it’s almost chilling! May he Rest In Peace! God bless anyone struggling in this world in any way shape or form!
I'll tell you what I'm telling others who are saying that. If it was su--de, he was a selfish scumbag. He could have done it in a thousand different ways which did involve traumatizing little children.
I struggle to find empathy for people who commit suicide in front of others. Thinking about the person who would find my body was the very thing that saved my life in 2006. I didn’t want to traumatize anyone.
my dad killed himself a few years ago in the shed. he was dying and in pain so he did what he had to do. he nailed the door shut and put cardboard and metal on the windows so my mom couldn't get in. the police had to open the door with a ram thing. i will always respect him for doing all that so my mother wouldn't have to see his body in that manner. he left a note and such.. what makes me mad is that people are against euthanasia for the elderly and sick who rationally wish to end their physical suffering. i have zero sympathy for healthy people who kill themselves, only their family. I feel like all this suicide hotline type shit makes people think only insane people might want to commit suicide and makes it so that many rational people who should die in a hospitial or surrounded by family and dying peacefully have to hang themselves or shoot themselves
@matthewfors114 sadly he's in hell rn taking a gift of life God gave you is selfish life is hard but not that hard u gotta end it just to try to escape it which u never will it'll be even worse for u in the afterlife
The thing is if ur gonna take urself out dont hurt someone else physically or emotionally. He could have jumped from a tree in the woods without traumatizing people including kids. I live by a highway intersection where people have waited for semis to come and then pull out in front of them at the last second. I get so angry at them for what they do to the innocent truck drivers.
It's sad looking at his face before he fell. He was so calm, like this was what he wanted. We're all fighting our own internal battles and we don't know what's going on with the people around us, and that's why we should be nicer to each other. Maybe what he needed was a friend for a day. Thoughts and prayers to him and his family.
I need a nice lady friend I get lonely but not the suicidal type but I play it carefully when I m riding a cable sky ride like they have there and also at SCBB..Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk
I knew this kid in college who was walking down the street in Atlantic City, NJ. A man jumped off the top of a 12-story parking garage to his death. He landed several feet in front of where this kid was walking. This kid had so many post traumatic issues from seeing that; it really messed him up. The person committing suicide isn’t the only victim.
You are right. It's bad to bring others into it. It will probably haunt a handful of people for the rest of their lives. It's why when I tried to kill myself I did it by myself where hopefully nobody would find me.
Main reason that prevented me from doing it years ago, and the most common thought I have about it. At my worst, I still just don't want to hurt anyone but myself, so I just keep on going.
@@Quocalimar think of yourself as your own best friend I try even talk to myself like I'd talk to a mate cause it helps get you away from negative foughts that just cause stress and anxiety hope your well!
This man wanted that outcome. No way he slipped hanging on like it’s nothing. He wasn’t scared at all, didn’t try to make his way back into the seat or anything.
@@tobydanger86 I mean yeah I do you said like u talked to him he could've been doing a dare yeah a stupid dare but to say he wanted to commit suicide like u talked to him is a reach
@Google Account exactly lmao that's what I'm saying they all saying the same thing too like bro how do y'all know that just watch the video n shut up geesh
He was alone on the ride. Most people have someone with them. So sad that this man may have given up and taken his own life. I pray for his family. God be the glory!
@@jackkawf4449 omg would u feed him or give him money or help him if he didn't do this ?? it's obvious he went thru something painful enough to do this to himself.. "others" didn't care about him , nor do u..

@@jackkawf4449dude yes, he did it in front of the families, but when you’re in that mindset your basically in distress mentally so he wasn’t in the right state of mind to be thinking about other people. He wasn’t selfish he was suffering. I know because I went through that shit before
I'm bothered that the Spokesman for Lagoon never even showed remorse or sorrow for the loss. Only defense of his park! My heart goes out to this young man's loved ones and for whatever lead him to do this, if he "Did it" himself.
I don't want to sound harsh but can you blame the guy. The public will assume it was a malfunction on their part, causing potential revenue loss by people not wanting to go there when it's clear the guy offed himself. Yeah he could have been a little more compassionate but idk.
@@bryancartagena3286 Someones mother is heartbroken. That's where my heart stands. Spokesperson should have showed some compassion but, expecting that from media is a foolish expectation!
It looked like he did it on purpose. Usually if you are slipping on a ride your yelling for help. He was just calmly hanging like he was looking for a place to fall without landing on others.
I wash I could have been there on the ride with him..... I would have smashed his fingers myself as he hung on and watch him fall to the pavement below. ☠
My Daughter actually WITNESSED a man on the edge of a building before he jumped (many years ago in Salt Lake City) and there were people that came to her school the day after the field trip; to talk to anyone about what they saw and to help and try and explain, or provide counseling.
My buddy suicided back in 2015, but he did in a isolated place where me and him used play as kids growing up. Sometimes I wondered why do people need the attention of others before committing the act? Is it because they need comfort on the last moment or need someone care and talk to them that might convince them to stop the act? RIP to this man and my late friend Jimmy!
I was thinking maybe Lagoon was somewhere this man had some of his best memories throughout his existence, so maybe he went on a few rollercoasters before his last moments and enjoyed looking at people enjoy what he once was part of in better times in his life or something. People are right that it's not good to potentially traumatize kids, but I don't agree with people acting like the life never mattered because he chose to do it this way either. Rest In Peace.
He looked WAY too calm, wasn’t asking for help… this was sadly a suicide :/ Bless this poor man, I know that pain. I’m sorry you didn’t have someone there to tell you you are worth it and meant to be here, RIP 💔
Oh my gosh, I'm literally crying right now and I never cry watching videos 😢😢, I'm so sad for this man. What he must have been going through to feel so hopeless as to go through with this. This is the saddest video I've ever seen
@ Sanjog k. Why so hostile? That wasn't very nice - your comment to me with the ( WTF .) I didn't have claimed to have the answers to this event. I simply ASKED A QUESTION, to other people, for their input. I see other people's texts don't matter to you - only your own. Capiche?
Things like this hurt so much. I lost some of my closest friends in the military to suicide and it's just absolutely heartbreaking that this man thought there was no way out. Rest in peace sir. I'm sorry that you suffered.
@Shhh spongebob sleepin fu and your good time out with kids. This guy was depressed enough to end his one life and you're worried about kids having a few hours ruined. Insensitive prik is what u are. Its because of people like you that he took this step.
@Shhh spongebob sleepin literally hate this comment. I’m willing to go on a fucking 2 hour long rant on why I hate this comment but I simply don’t have the energy to. The fact that your more concerned with what the tourists see, rather than what the man is going through just sickens me.At least you added “RIP” to the end of your comment.
@@andrew.mp4311 You're very wrong here. Yes it's sad he died and wanted to commit suicide. He could have done it at home away from other people, especially children. How can you disagree with this? Your 2 hour rant would show your lack of intelligence. Let your future son or daughter watch a man shoot himself in the head. From what you said it's ok.
@Shhh spongebob sleepin it’s not about the tourists. Sure, they will be traumatized but the focus is on him. It’s not his fault he felt so trapped that he had to take his own life. I agree, he should have thought through a much less public option or gotten help when he felt suicidal, but we shouldn’t blame someone who’s already dead.
If you struggling real hard right now, you are not alone. Suicide at a park, kids watching, please dont. Think of your own trauma that put you to the end. You dont want to be the start of someone elses "suffer", "pain".
Thank you for the information but, It wasn't suicide He was drunk and was trying to attempt to do pull ups on the ride My youngest sister was operating one of the games right by the fall site where he fell. She could see him falling as well as before when he was dangling. He lost energy after the last pull up and couldn't get up. And lost grip over one of the bumps that the carts go over on the cords.
It's so sad when people get to the point where suicide is the only way out. People need to learn the signs that suicide victims show before. My heart goes out to all who have lost anyone to this. Bless him lord.
More like after he realized how screwed he was. He decided to save all his energy for hanging on. Unfortunately that ride is a half hour long on it’s best days. They stop the ride briefly, and leave you with your feet dangling at times as well. I’m betting it came to a stop on that run, and he couldn’t hang on any longer.
@@Lynn-ip9sh his spirit body gained freedom from the physical but in a karmic sense who knows what types of bondage and sufferings he went to on the other side in the spirit world...who cares? we as spirit beings loaded with karma have made the journey back and forth many times...next story
@@babkeebabkus8177 I hear those who commit suicide because they are too weary from the evil of life, go to a place where their souls can be comforted. After the long earth journey they were on... As long as their suicide was not in vain as an escape to leave the wrong doings they committed. If they were just a soul longing for peace the place they go is very sweet. They don't deserve anymore pain. No one deserves to feel so defeated they feel a need to escape like this. The poor souls are longing for home and peace.
@@Lynn-ip9sh I will state yeah this earth is not our home...our home is the eternal spirit world in which there are many levels of existence...we as spirit beings are as drivers having owned many vehicles...as for his experience on the other side it depends on his karma...the info his spirit body was loaded with prior to being born here and the info he accumated in spirit body during his experiences in this plane of existence determines what comes next...it's a long long story...basically whatever we are busy with is continuing in negative reactive ways or in neutral way or in active positive ways...it's all happening...hell is a thing...there are levels of hell too...various torments and tortures taking place and it ain't forever...it's like a jail term whereby after enough suffering one gets out to continue with the journey...many people wouldnt know that a lot of souls on earth have come from stints in hell...many are going back and some are moving higher...also kids ain't innocent because their spirit body is filled with karma...this is why pr€teen kids have r@ped and murdered other pr€teen kids...terrible kids have terrible karma in their spirit body filtering thru their mind and working thru the 5 senses to make them behave as they do
@@babkeebabkus8177 That makes good sense, I always thought of hell being a place of different ranks. Not all receiving the same amount of punishment. Maybe some will get a redo in a next life. I know many don't believe in a next life. But who's to say we wont get born on a different planet. We had not much of a say of being born here that we know of. So certainly we can spawn somewhere else. The universe is so vast, just in our galaxy alone there is said to be over 10 billion earth like planets. Just in the milky way, and there's billions of other galaxies with trillions other planets. It seems we are souls wandering around maybe on a mission, or maybe just garnering knowledge to elevate us in our soul journey.
This is sad on so many levels. What he did could not have been easy on the others who had to witness his choice of suicide method. They came to enjoy their day and this is what they had to face. RIP dude
He didn't look distressed, or call for help, even as he saw the woman recording him hanging on the safety bar of his car. Note that he holds on by his fingertips of both hands; he doesn't use his thumbs to get a solid grip on the bar. Others have said he was drunk, and climbed out to hang that way; he did similar stunts like that before, but this time, he lost his grip.
It is sad but things like this are selfish… you shouldn’t do public suicide. What if a little kid saw him fall and get killed. What if anyone saw him do that. It can mess a person up deeply. This man shot himself in his car by a grocery store at our schools dismissal. At a lot of people get out for early dismissal. They could’ve seen him do that. High schoolers are already stressed out enough.
i just dont understand why he chose to do it at a fun park in front of families. I have been sucidial before but never have i thought to take my own life in front of people also was this even confirmed to be a suicide???
This was a suicide. He was calm because he had resolved within himself what he felt he had to do. I spoke with my brother the day before he completed a suicide in 2003. We were laughing and cutting up just like when we were kids. A few days later...I got the call. You just never know. Tell the people you love how much they mean to you. How much you love them. I started something with my sons years ago. We never ever left the presence of the other with out saying, "I love you". When texting came along same thing end your text with, "I love you." I started this with them because I wanted them to know if anything happened to the other they would know the last words they said was," I love you" Just yesterday one of my twins said, "Mom I am so glad I know the last words I said to Joshua was, "I love you bro." " You see 6 months ago, I found my oldest son Joshua dead and decomposing in his apartment. I figured he had been there for 3 Days. Joshua, my son, was murdered. The last text I sent to him ended with, " Get some rest. I'll see you on Wednesday. I love you son." Little did I know within 12 hours my son would be dead. My heart goes out to this man's family. May he rest in peace.
@@sophierobinson2738 Oh Sophie there is never closure when a parents child is killed. The best I can ever hope for is an acceptance of him being gone. That will take years. I have spoken to many, many parents that have lost a child. The pain never really ends. It is the most gut wrenching feeling in the world. Thank you so much for your comment. God Bless You and Keep you safe.
It's incredibly sad to see someone take their life and it's even more tragic for others to see it up close as it's happening. I hope he found the peace he needed. I hope those who saw it happen get help processing it and have their own peace.
Is it bad I have no sympathy over people committing unalive? How can you be so selfish and have children and families look at that, in this case. Some people leave behind family who loved them. Idk what the back story is of this guy but that was super selfish. Out of the many ways, he decided to do it and traumatize people. Coward’s way. And I’m not some over-zealous person saying this.
@@KeweenawPatriot What do you mean when you say “we don’t need them”? If this was your own mother or loved one who had gone to such a dark place that they took their life would you say such an evil thing?
My only issue is he decided to go to a public place full of families and children and do it in front of everyone to make a big spectacle. Like what the fuck. If you're gonna kill yourself at least have the decency not to traumatize anyone else
I like how they point out there was no malfunction - as if there is a type of ride malfunction that would lift you out of your seat and leave you dangling by your hands from the leg bar.
never underestimate how dumb today's audience is. The other day, I saw a video regarding a cop shooting of a thug who pulled a gun on him and shot at the cop. The lawyer 100% said in a statement that the bodycam video was inconclusive on who pulled their weapon first, As if it is EVER ok to draw a gun on a cop.
Do you think In the malfunction there was some sort of hydraulic shocks in the seat that raised him up And forced him to dangle on the bars like that?😮🤣😢
Man that's so messed up I understand he was trying to leave this world but don't traumatize children doing it.... do it where nobody else is honestly he was selfish af
Hearts of men are cold in the last days,turn now.⌚ For What is the deal if you gain the whole world but stil lose your own soul ❗wake up💤💯💉🧬☠⌛🌊...like in the days of Noah God will judge the world.
And this why I say people who have never been depressed, will never understand just how deep it actually hurts. His calm demeanour is what’s most terrifying. Please check on one another🙏🏽❤️ Rest In Peace him
I pray for him, maybe he didn't comprehend the huge mistake he was making and wasn't in his right mind... hopefully he isn't in hell, I pray for God's mercy.
So many psychiatrys on here..I SERIOUSLY DOUBT HE WAS GOING THROUGH A DEPRESSION...HE WAS MESSING AROUND AND FELL TO HIS DEATH..HIS CALMNESS WAS BECAUSE HE KNEW HE HAD SCREWED UP AND COULDN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AT THAT POINT
This was extremely hard to watch. He wasn't yelling nor screaming for help, so he wanted to take his life. And what's also sad is seeing people walking slowly just looking. Nobody yelling for help. All parks should have a foldable blow up kit, that will inflate within a mins or two. That way he has something to fall onto, that could potentially save his life. RIP SIR🙏❤️
Agreed, he had to have climbed over the guard to end up like that...tragic😔 Why do that where there is a bunch of kids tho!? I will never understand that part of it.
it’s terrible knowing how calm he was about it because he knew what he was doing. he wanted to be gone, it’s so sad because suicidal help needs to be used more.
Idk if it was suicide he probably would have chosen something higher. Also he would have just jumped at the right point and not hanging on there. I think he just was that calm because he was too focused on trying to hang on there and saving his energy

It sure looked intentional - he wasn't yelling for help or struggling to get back up. Plus I think he noticed her videotaping him - bet he let go thinking she would get him falling. :(
What strikes me is that he was alone in the car when this happened - he was apparently at the park with others in his family, but went alone. My guess is that he told others, "watch me" and tried a stunt beyond his capabilities. He was passing over fountains, he may have mistakenly thought he could drop into one, no one will ever know what was going through his head.
Not a stunt.When you are doing some crazy stuff, you laugh when you see a camera around you. this guy gave no shit and face was blank too. There's some expression when you do stunts. This was more likely suicide.
Can't imagine what he must be going through at the moment. Please be kind to each other because you never know sometimes it can trigger thoughts like this.

Looks like he did that for the gram frfr. He didn’t look like he was panicking etc. The safety gate looked still in place etc. Looks like he climbed out imho
@@FM-jo1jh That is exactly the suspicion. Especially because of the fact that he died and this is still a recent event, no one WANTS to state it was definitively a suicide. Look at how all the comments suggesting it was intentional have it very carefully worded. But when you take everything in context, it just does not seem like there is any chance it could have been an accident.
Now 1 person who "needed" help just caused probably 100s of ppl to now need help from this act of selfishness....idk how ppl feel sorry 4 him but the kids don't cross they mind not once smfh
Prank, stunt, malfunction or by choice... This is someone’s son. I hope the family heals with time... and remembers every moment that he gave them joy and happiness. 💕
Who's to say his entire family isn't already dead? I mean, that would be a good motive for suicide. Maybe abusive parents. Are they perhaps adopted into a bad life? I personally think it's weird to assume people's lives, especially ones like this where they committed “suicide.” like why would you believe they have a good life?
I feel so bad for people who commit suicide and I’ve lost so many people to the same. I just wish if he had to do it, he could have done it privately. So sad for the children and people who saw his body after the fall or in general, it could change their life’s trajectory.
Suicide victims never Rest In Peace. lol. Do you not understands the laws of the Cosmos? Thou shall not take life for granted. He will have hell to pay for what he has done.
@@seanbreheny9777 sorry, how is suicide morally wrong? Who decided it’s wrong? If I was suffering from great pain and had no way for it to stop, please tell me how that’s “immoral”
This is God's way of thinning out the stupid ones out of the herd, If you are this dumb you have nothing Positive to contribute to society. Which one of you dumb-ass millennials are next?
That doesnt even look high enough to kill you but just mess you up, especially dropping feet first. If he was trying to kill himself that's a crazy way of doing it, and to do it at a kids theme park is an extra savage move.
Our bodies are a lot fragile then most would assume.....doesn't take much to rupture organs....broken bones can become internal weapons causing lacerations of veins and arteries organs etc. Some people in minor car accident for of internal ruptures of internal organs from just force alone.
This is horrifying because I go to lagoon a lot and I even saw smoke once, I was the only person who noticed it though and I knew something was wrong, but knowing that someone fell off breaks my heart
The ski lift at lagoon is scarier than some of the rides. Sometimes it just stops and shakes. I was always scared to get on it again after my first time.
I used to live in Utah and went to Lagoon multiple times a year and rode this ride thousands of times since the 70's. My kids and now grandkids have also ridden it hundreds of times. There is no way this was a malfunction of the ride or an accident, with much effort he would have had to have crawled out and done this of his own free will. He meant to do this. On purpose. Not an accident or a malfunction. He wanted to die.
Or a failed stunt... People are very very very stupid these days. I initially thought of those people that hang off the edge of skyscrapers. And the wannabes that pretend they do that.
Literally done pullups multiple times on this ride before and can confirm this guy just wasn't good enough. Also, if it was a suicide, then f*ck him since he did it in front of a bunch of kids
