Chen Fuchao, a Chineese man heavily in debt was going to jump off of a bridge and kill himself. Police were attempting to talk him down until a kindly pedestrian decided to help out... by pushing Chen off the bridge.
The passer by said he pushed the man because he was tying up traffic with "selfish activity" "I pushed him off because jumpers like Chen are very selfish. Their action violates a lot of public interest." Chen had been contemplating suicide on a bridge in southern China for hours. He fell 26 feet onto an inflated emergency air cushion laid out by authorities and survived, suffering spine and elbow injuries.
I won't say this guy was right for doing what he did... but making an entire city late for work because of your own personal problems is a little selfish.
