Gonna take a stab at a theory: he knew he was about to be arrested and blamed for something, perhaps that recent gas release ‘accident’ and figured suicide was far preferable.

[LouAvul]

it did not mention any possible cause of death.

My guess is that it was the sudden stop that did it.

[Husker24]

Probably related somehow with the recent defection.

Did they check the back of his head for a pair of bullet holes?

Mr. Trebec, I’ll take tossed off the roof by CCP agents for 500.

hmm. Is that a busy tourist area?

[E. Pluribus Unum]

You forgot the quote marks around “suicide.”

[allendale]

Something is definitely not right with China’s nuclear ambitions, plans and actual accomplishments. The Chinese, desperate for non smog producing sources of electricity, had aspirations to have over 100 functioning nuclear power plants. They have fewer than twenty. For whatever reason they do not seem able to build and staff nuclear power plants. Suspect the CCP was frustrated and was about to behave in a traditional communist manner when people don’t achieve their goals or perform as expected. This guy may have been facing a purge, humiliation and possibly an arrest for “corruption”. Suicide may have seemed preferable.

Why the Chinese do not seem capable of constructing and staffing nuclear power plants is something worth knowing.

“Suicide”... ‘wink, wink’...

[SaxxonWoods]

Chinese Nuclear Reactor in the news but is “safe”.

Top Chinese nuclear guy jumps off building.

Ut-oh.

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

He was just trying to verify Newton’s theory on “gravity”, but lacking an apple, he decided to become a “human apple” and see what happens when he jumps.

We call that “making red apple sauce”.

Now if he was trying to learn how bats fly, he would have called it “the Wuhan Bat Flying Theory of Virus Dissemination and Disinformation”.

I could go on but I just got a call from James Doohan. He said, “Forget about the guy, MadMax. He’s dead as his theories. He died from the infamous CCCP ‘Guy Flu Out the Window Disease’.

Cause of death: Sudden stop

[Retain Mike]

"For months there have been reports of suicides among CCP officials."

I seem to remember that many Soviet prisoners in Lubyanka escaped from their cells, ran to the roof of the prison, and committed suicide by jumping.

[snuffy smiff]

Give it a day or two and the official ccp line will become he was an avowed sodomite and was thrown off the building by militant muslim uighurs...
