1979 年 12 月 2 号,Elvita Adams 没有了工作,交不起房租,万般无奈,打算一死。
On December 2nd, 1979, around 8:15 at night, Elvita Adams decided to jump from the 86th-floor observation deck of the Empire State Building in the middle of downtown Manhattan.
After leaving her feet, the strong wind pushed her body backward. This pushed her back toward the building and caused her to land just a flight down, with comparably minor injuries.
没想到当时高楼外面的风太大,把她吹回了 85 层。
