PHOTOS: Girl jumps to to her death from Guangxi bridge as onlookers take pictures

A girl lept off a bridge and died in Guangxi last Saturday while dozens of onlookers and some police officers were on site.

The girl was standing on the edge of the bridge, surrounded by crowds busily taking pictures with their phones.


The girl talked on her phone for two minutes before jumping off the bridge. Reportedly no one present at the scene attempted to talk to her.

A witness said he heard someone talking on the phone asking a nearby boat to help rescue the girl.

A small civilian boat without any rescue equipment tried to approach the girl but failed continually, merely circling around her and she thrashed around in the water.


After struggling for ten minutes, the girl eventually sank lifeless beneath the surface, then drifted away and disappeared.

In 2019, a would-be thief approached a woman standing alone outside her home in Brazil.  The thief asked the woman for the time and then threatened her with a cardboard gun.  But unfortunately for the man, the woman he was attempting to steal from happened to be Polyana Viana, a professional MMA fighter. Rather than surrendering her belongings, Polyana hit the thief  with two punches and a kick. The aspiring thief fell, and Polyana swiftly subdued him with a rear-naked choke, detaining him until the police arrived.

  German women were raped by all armies at the end of the second world war From the archive, 17 June 1955: Berlin woman's memoir of mass rape reviewed Controversial book suggests many Berlin women were raped by drunken Red Army soldiers during the second world war Observer, 19 June 2005: When rape was a spoil of war Two years after the end of the war Berlin still smelled of death. Each street contained dozens of ruins and every ruin, especially after rain had fallen and there was still a dampness in the air, retained the same sickly smell. It may have been, as some Germans honestly believed, corpses buried beneath them, or it may have been the state of the drains. It may simply have been the projection of a short but stormy past into the greyness of that particularly uninviting present. A Woman in Berlin (Secker and Warburg, pp. 284, 15s) tells the story of a single German woman of middle-class family, living in the Neu-Kölln district of Berlin. This district has not...

  Video filmed by Patricia Birmingham in 2021 shows her final moments alive before she was shot by her husband, Carey Birmingham.  Her husband shot and killed her after he discovered she had an affair.  He was recently sentenced to 10 years in prison for her death and will be up for parole after 5 years. The incident took place in a northwest Harris County home on Dec. 6, 2021. The location was the 19800 block of Rose Dawn Lane, where deputies found Patricia Birmingham dead in the driveway from an apparent gunshot wound. At the time of the incident, investigators found that the husband and his wife were the only people present at the property. Carey Birmingham, a 60-year-old Spring resident, was sentenced to only 10 years in prison even after footage captured by his wife, who was shot and killed in December 2021, moments before her death was caught on tape.  An all-female jury decided against the maximum sentence of 20 years in pris...
