I saw a lot of death happen at one time. This happened like 10,000 feet front of where I was driving westbound on the 91 freeway my way home from work. I saw it out of my car window and said to myself "oh thats not the way a plane is supposed to fly"

My question is how can you "watch" a suicide and let it happen? I can understand finding them dead, but not watching it occur?

I have never witnessed a death and hope i don't have to for a long time. I have witnessed several severe car accidents that may have resulted in deaths.

I've seen a few dead people in the street after getting hit by a car, never had it happen in front of me though.

I was on a hike with some people I didn't know in Acadia National Park in Maine, and a man walking right behind me suddenly fell backwards and started making a very strange sound. I and a couple of other people were standing there unsure what to do when his wife came running from up ahead where she'd been caught up in conversation and started literally jumping up and down on his chest. I and this teenage girl--the youngest and fittest people there--went running for help, though it didn't end up doing any good. Apparently, paramedics and others there kept pumping the guy's heart for hours, but only because they needed a doctor there to officially declare him dead.....

Yes, hundreds and hundreds of deaths. Probably thousands. Drowned, crushed, poisoned, burned.

Oh, wait. You mean human deaths? Then, no.
