A choice to die would be the only exception. How monstrously unfair it was would have enraged any who weren’t markedly saintly — and the rest wouldn’t jump.

One of the few survivors of a deliberate suicide attempt by jumping from the Golden Gate bridge had to climb over two railings and a lower structure to get to a point where he could finally drop.

When he let go and started to fall, he instantly regretted it, and all the way down...

Look up "The Bridge" on Youtube.

It's a documentary on suicide jumpers. For me, no matter how low or hopeless I got, I never had the courage to pull the plug. On 9/11, you have to wonder how many smothered or burned, or rode it down, rather than jump.
