If everyone jumped off a bridge, would you? Of course you would.Well one brave student is starting the trend. According to the Chicago Tribune a 22 year-old dove off the North Avenue pier and fell head-first into shallow water faster than a fat kid onto a fried twinkie. A few days later he died from serious injuries. The police believe his death was an accident.
He was walking on the pier with a girlfriend at 4:40 AM when he decided to take the plunge. So chalk up another death to drunk men doing stupid things to impress women.
To all you drunks out there who are trying to show off for girls after 3 in the morning, you don't look cool climbing that tree. You don't look cool doing a poorly executed hand-stand. You don't look cool jumping off a bridge. And you definitely don't look cool dead. So while you struggle to haul yourself up onto the Alma Mater, I'll be the one hanging back with the girls and laughing at you.
Now let's all jump on the band wagon and jump off bridges!
