The Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge(Known as No.1 Suicide
place) has always been one of the most famous bridges in China and known as
world suicide place. Statistics showed that more than 2,000 people had
committed suicide from the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge between 1968 and 2006.
Chen Si is a Chinese man who has stopped more than 300
people from committing suicide off the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge in Nanjing,
China.Chen Si has been volunteering on the bridge
every weekend for the past 13 years. He has saved more than 300 people.
Chan si also known as angel
of Nanjing. Chen first started going to the bridge back in
2003. He arrived in Nanjing to work and met an old man who offered him lots of
optimistic advice. The old man fell ill not too long after and his sons began
arguing about inheritance -- leading the old man to refuse to eat and
eventually pass away. This incident is one of the main motivating factors for
Chen to help others. He believes if he just went to talk to the old man, things
might have been different. "What could be more important than life
itself?" Chen asks.
Every weekend, Chen si go 25
kilometers far to the bridge, arriving at 7:30AM in the morning. He patrols the
bridge on bike and on foot. When he
meets somebody who wants to jump from the bridge, he talks to them and
persuades them not to do it. In case he's not there when someone needs help, he
has also written his number of the bridge for people to call.
For
example, Chen helped Shi Xiqing, a man who tried to commit suicide
because of the $15,000 bill for his daughter's leukemia treatment, by phoning
him every week and talking to his creditors.
