It was said by someone who survived jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge.

I think it was in the documentary "The Bridge."

Yep and completely negating that are the examples of people who lived, climbed back up and did it again. That’s why I don’t like this quote and that guy.

Kind of odd to actively dislike them, the reality is everyone feels a bit different, one person's story doesn't invalidate others and vice versa.

With you there. The fact that he'd tell his story when it isn't universally applicable to everyone is frankly ridiculous, and it is very rude of him to have personal experiences that don't fit into your world view

Thought you were being serious for a second.

The dude is lying by omission. He is aware of these counterexamples and essentially implies everyone who has jumped feels that.

The person being rude about a personal experience that doesn’t fit others’ worldviews is him.

If it helps keep some people around longer that's not so bad right?
