[QUOTE]A female student fell to her death Friday from a three-story building at Crescenta Valley High School, according to Glendale Unified School District officials. Because of the incident, the school was closed early and students are being sent home. “There’s been a fall. They’re still investigating the cause of it,” said one district employee, who asked that her name not be used because she is not an official spokeswoman for the district. The Glendale News-Press reported the fall led to the student's death and was witnessed by dozens of students shortly before 1 p.m. at the school on 2900 Community Avenue in La Crescenta. No further details were immediately available.[/QUOTE] I'm disturbed of what just happened. One of my friend saw the body and is in a state of shock right now. The entire school evacuated to the football field. Students couldn't get out of the campus until their parents pick them up. Luckily I'm old enough to sign myself out of school since I'm 18.

What makes you say it was suicide?
Shit, man. That sounds terrible. Did you know the girl?
[QUOTE=BlkDucky;34639771]What makes you say it was suicide?[/QUOTE] Students are saying that she was on a roof.
[QUOTE=BlkDucky;34639771]What makes you say it was suicide?[/QUOTE] "Holy shit how did I get on the edge of the fucking roof!? OH FUCK" Doesn't sound plausible.
[QUOTE=MajorMattem;34639776]Shit, man. That sounds terrible. Did you know the girl?[/QUOTE] I wasn't there at the incident. I was out to eat lunch and this happened. I don't exactly know who it is as of right now.
[QUOTE=HawkeyeTy;34639797]"Holy shit how did I get on the edge of the fucking roof!? OH FUCK" Doesn't sound plausible.[/QUOTE] But on drugs it is.
[QUOTE=HawkeyeTy;34639797]"Holy shit how did I get on the edge of the fucking roof!? OH FUCK" Doesn't sound plausible.[/QUOTE] Yeah, okay. Just saying that there's nothing in the article suggesting it, likely as it is.
[QUOTE=AaronM202;34639821]But on drugs it is.[/QUOTE] If you're on datura maybe.
Wow, that sucks.
I want to know how she got on the roof
[QUOTE=BackflipHatchetAttack;34639986]I want to know how she got on the roof[/QUOTE] I'm asking the same question. Being a senior year I don't know how it's possible.
[QUOTE=AaronM202;34639821]But on drugs it is.[/QUOTE]Yeah those things they prescribe to depressed people is some nasty stuff.
[QUOTE=BackflipHatchetAttack;34639986]I want to know how she got on the roof[/QUOTE] In my old school it was every easy to get to the roof. All you had to do was get out of class and just go up the stairs. During none class time there would be a janitor guarding the door some time. But the door didn't have a lock on it. I think it was a fire exit or something like that.
A guy at my college hung himself last year unexpectedly, it affected everyone in a horrible way, and I hope your school recovers from this tragedy, best wishes mate.
She must of gone up some sort of staircase to reach the roof.
[QUOTE=BlkDucky;34639771]What makes you say it was suicide?[/QUOTE] People just don't decide "hey I'm going to jump off a roof today!"
[QUOTE=Scrimp;34642558]She must of gone up some sort of staircase to reach the roof.[/QUOTE] She obviously hijacked a helicopter and jumped out once she was hovering over the school. That's how you get to 'hard-to-reach' places.
[QUOTE=Scrimp;34642558]She must of gone up some sort of staircase to reach the roof.[/QUOTE] What if she started ABOVE the school and went DOWN something to get there [editline]10th February 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=Daniel Smith;34642620]People just don't decide "hey I'm going to jump off a roof today!"[/QUOTE] People don't decide to accidentally fall off things either, but it happens
guys i'm pretty sure she was addicted to weed and this caused it!!!
[QUOTE=Le Pwnapple;34642780]guys i'm pretty sure she was addicted to weed and this caused it!!![/QUOTE] she probably collapsed from an overdose after stepping on a weed needle...
[quote] [Updated, 2:48 p.m. Feb. 10: An earlier version of this post said the student who had died was a female. Glendale Unified School District officials now say that it was a male student.] [/quote] Sounds like an accident now.
At my highschool, the only stair case leading up to the roof was blocked by a fence that was trimmed with barb-wire. I've never seen or heard about anyone getting up there, but I would say you would have to be pretty flexible to make it around the fence. Not that I, or anyone that I know, had any interested in getting up there.
We had someone in our school get into a big car crash, but all we did was have an assembly about it. I hope your school recovers from this.
A student at my school was hit by a train, witnessed by 3 buses. Apparently he put his hands up before he was hit. All the news articles are saying that it was an accident, he did listen to loud music and walk home on the tracks. 2nd school death this year in a small town.
[QUOTE=nicatronTg;34643032]Sounds like an accident now.[/QUOTE] Not really...? Usually when people fall off the top of a tall building it's because they wanted to. Plus, why would the student even want to go onto the roof (assuming like most schools it's also a restricted area) in the first place if it wasn't to commit suicide. I'm sure there's reasons that people could think of, but since the person did fall to their death after going up there it's really pointing at suicide.
[QUOTE=Mac2468;34639845]If you're on datura maybe.[/QUOTE] Alcohol would do it too. Go up there to drink without getting busted --> drunkenness affects balance --> stumble off roof --> splat.
Interesting. We just had a death at my school, too. Some kid was riding his bike down the street when a car wiped out his tires. it hurled him into an oncoming lane where he was ran over by a car
we've had 2 deaths at my high school both suicides, really tragic stuff. we take school deaths really seriously and we have remembrance things around the school for them
It's hard to make the manly picnic joke when it's not a man
