Further information says that the deceased was in the habit of drinking heavily, and that he was probably drunk when he jumped at around midnight. He was studying for a Psychology degree. No information on a possible motive.

I am assuming they are counting floors the European way: ground floor, first floor, second floor. That would mean a height of what, 6 meters? Plenty to kill yourself.

Actually the first, if the photo is correct. That should only be a fractured pelvis. Guess he went over head first?
