Lessons from jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge—survivor shares his story to help others ❤️

Nearly 22 years ago, a 19-year-old Kevin Hines jumped from the Golden Gate Bridge committed to ending his life. His desire changed as quickly as his release from the rail of the bridge because during that four-second fall, he decided he wanted to live.

Through the years, the bridge’s 220-foot drop has claimed countless lives, including 25 others who jumped before Hines that same year.

But he did not die and looking back he recalls that he had three things working in his favor: a prayer he said to himself on the way down, a sea lion underneath him that kept him from sinking, and a team that responded quickly.

Call it fate or luck—forces seemed to be at play to keep Hines alive to tell his story and to inspire others to choose life, despite their challenges.

If you ask someone if they are thinking about su***de and they say yes, keep them safe. Separate them from anything they are thinking of using to hurt themselves.
