Over 1,400 have died after jumping off The Golden Gate Bridge,
but 26 people are known to have survived the jump despite multiple
internal injuries and broken bones (*that* sound like a fun swim!).
So, would you say that for those 1,400+ who didn't survive, jumping
off The Golden Gate Bridge did not cause their death, but was only
an agent that makes death more likely? If so, what *was* the cause
of death?
