This is Beachy Head... hardly surprising to find out is one of the most popular spots in the country for committing suicide. I personally would prefer to have a picnic there but each to his own.

By the way the height of the cliffs is about 130m (or roughly 400ft in old money).

Holy fill-in-the-blank!! Great shot! What is that down in the water? How sad about the suicides. I would much rather picnic. liveandletlive · 2011-09-01: 11:34

It is a beautiful place, and it brings back fond memories of our obligatory visit to see it every time we visited my Grandma in Bexhill, we were never allowed to get this close though... Annbramwell · 2011-09-01: 13:07

I'm with you -- rather have a picnic! Amazing enlarged! That's a lighthouse in the water? ????? · 2011-09-01: 17:00

So used to areas like this being sand dunes around here... harder to commit suicide on sand. :-) DancingDolphin · 2011-09-01: 21:48

could dampen ones appetite... Wow place though slowpete · 2011-09-02: 02:18

and another great place to get rid of a corpse ;) near where i live there is a watch tower also very popular for suicide and every xmas and new year eve there is a group of volunteers to guard the tower and keep world-weary suicide candidates away... do you have anything like that here? but anyway, this breathtaking view makes a worthy last sight of a life ;) longimanus · 2011-09-02: 04:42
