According to interviews of the (few) survivors who jumped off the Golden Gate Bridge, time slows down and they became hyper aware. Actually the opposite of what you describe

And, according to the interviews, during those slow subjective seconds before they hit the water they all regretted jumping.

In the words of one who survived his jump of the Golden Gate Bridge: "the instant I cleared the chord, I realized every problem I had could be solved, except for the one I had just caused myself."

The "chord" is the steel beam just on the other side of the pedestrian fence.
