This makes something like 12 people who have died in related accidents in UT this year alone. Those of you who've walked across the bridges have probably wondered if you could make it if you tried....

As my marine biology teacher always said, "Stupid gets you dead"

Seems to be his case.
Boy Scouts are supposed to be smarter than that.

JL you know me, I like heights. It is fun to walk beams on high rise buildings,sit on the edge of cliffs thousands of feet up. But I have been to the bridges a few times and there is no way I would ever consider jumping across. It seems that some of the younger generation think they are invincible and don't think about the risk of not making it.

Something about Utah must affect people's depth perception. I blame Utah.

That's sad. Six feet is not that great of a distance. I would be tempted to try it. Condolences to the family.

True, he probably wasn't very smart, but I'm sure when he was alive he could have spelled "retard" correctly.
