Love this! If this doesn't touch your heart... might consider a checkup to examine your soul...
HIGHWAY COMPASSION: 13 Semi Trucks Line Michigan Freeway To Save Man Contemplating Suicide


A moment of heroic compassion happened under a highway overpass in Detroit as 13 semi trucks parked underneath it to save a man considering suicide.

After the man walked out on the bridge, concerned drivers saw him and called the police to report a possibly suicidal man. The bridge had a big drop to a busy highway below.

Several local police officers arrived quickly to the bridge with negotiators and began speaking with the man, attempting to get him to come back from the ledge of the bridge.

Just the show of concern for him would probably have swayed him from jumping :).. When a person thinks no body cares. That's when they are more likely to go through with suicide.:(
