Tbh I have seen this happening lots of times, there was a queue in July for doing so.

Never seen a biker remove his kit and do it, but you get loads of pikeys there also who like to do it.

he was pointed out to by a councillor who had seen him and then he pleaded guilty.

He's obviously never gained legal advice from BCF.

It might be a better idea to just make it very hard or undesirable to jump from there. Big fence and a net half way down perhaps?

I was standing there at the edge admiring the view, when some wind blew me off.

or

I couldn't take it any more, I just wanted it all to end but god gave me a second chance.

This really fucks me off. If people want to do this sort of thing then they should be allowed. No one elses life was in danger, why should some nazi have control of what I want to do with my life?

I jumped of it about 20 odd years ago a few times. No different from jumping of a peer. The only issue is when people are going up stream under the bridge. A few weeks ago they were jumping off the bridge and nearly landed on swimmers.

Love the notice.

I can just see it now. Set a CCTV camera on it. If anyone has both feet off the ground as they are crossing the bridge, fine them. They "Jumped from the bridge".

I always worried that someone jumping off the bridge could hit a scuba diver.

Anyway. I see the perfect solution. Pour some lighter fluid over your trainers and set them on fire just before you jump. Not only would it be awesome but it would also create a reasonable excuse. "Yes your honour. I jumped in the river to extinguish my feet, which were, at the time in question, on fire.".
