Once upon a time, I had to climb a local TV tower to talk down a guy that "wanted" to commit suicide. " A jumper".
This was acutally the second time I had talked him down off of a tower. The first one was a fair amount shorter... He remembered me, and the fact that everything I told him would happen, if he came down, ie., he would not go to jail, but back to his hospital. So after a long climb, he had disabled the elevator, and a long talk, he gave himself up, I did have 2 other "cover guys" up there with me, and we climbed down together. One of the "deals" we made, was that he would again, just have to go back to his hospital not to jail,, and that next time,[ with crazy people there is always a next time], he would pick a tower, NOT in my city... Both times were at night. I never saw him again... |
