That ogrish is a good site.

How would jumping from a building increase your chance of a visa? It looked like he was trying to parachute down holding a plastic bag.

Why would he jump on the bag if he wanted to kill himself?

I can't ever access ogrish- I think somehow it's blocked on the company server. Can you post the article?

Looks as though the police had advance warning he was going to jump.
