Daily Sun (December 8 2014) - THE desperate man stood on the ledge for more than an hour, praying and reading his Bible and wondering if he should end his life.
Instead of comfort from the people on the ground, he received a challenge.
JUMP, THEY CHANTED. JUMP!
In the end, the nameless man gave up on life and threw himself off the building, landing on the first floor ledge. He died instantly, his Bible lying next to him.
A witness told Daily Sun they noticed the man standing outside his flat on the fifth floor of the building at the corner of Bree and Simmonds streets in central Joburg on Thursday afternoon.
"When people saw that he was thinking of committing suicide they encouraged him to jump," said the witness.
