From a NYT article on the history of the Queensboro Bridge, which opened in 1909: There were 235 applications from people who sought to be the first to jump from the bridge -- 168 from professional bridge jumpers, 34 from inventors with devices to test, 9 would-be suicides and 24 unemployed men who thought the gesture would improve their chances of work.This raises so many unanswered questions... . . .
