Anant per sobre del Golden Gate Bridge tens un accident de cotxe. Et dónes compte que has oblidat el mòbil a casa, i necessites demanar ajuda ràpidament. Busques un telèfon d'emergència al pont. Quan el trobes fas la trucada. El telèfon sona. Primer to. Segon to. Tercer to.
- Hola?
- Senyoreta, necessito ajuda! He tingut un accident!
- D'acord, no desesperi. La vida és meravellosa i aquest accident no ha de significar el seu final...
- Però què...!!?
Has trucat des del telèfon equivocat, amic meu...
Desafortunadament, una mitjana d'una persona cada dos setmanes es treu la vida saltant des del Golden Gate Bridge. I no només els locals, sinò que ve gent de tot el país només per fer això. De fet, per aquells que teniu el cor de pedra, hi ha un famòs documental sobre el tema anomenat The Bridge (El pont).
Aquesta és la raó per la que hi ha un nombre significatiu de telèfons per tot el pont. I també per mantenir un alt control sobre les hores de tancament del pont i les possibilitats del creuar-lo de nit.
Vam passar pel pont amb bicicleta en el nostre camí cap a Sausalito. Impressionant. Segur que repeteixo.
Going over the Golden Gate Bridge you have a car accident. You realize you forgot your cell phone at home, and you need to ask for help quickly. You look for an emergency phone on the bridge. When you find it you make an emergency call. The phone rings. First tone. Second tone. Third tone.
- Hello?
- Ma'am, I need help! I've got an accident!
- Ok. Don't desperate. The live is beautiful and this accident don't have to be the end of this one...
- What the..!!?
You made a call from the wrong phone, my friend...
Unfortunately, an average of one person each two weeks kills himself jumping from Golden Gate Bridge. And not only locals, but people from all the country come to SF only for this. Actually, for those who have a heart of stone, there is a famous documentary about it called The Bridge.
That is the reason for put in a significant quantity of phones throughout the bridge. And also for maintaining such level of control about the closed times of the bridge and the chance to cross it at night.
We went over the bridge by bike in our way to Sausalito. Impressive. It's sure I'll repeat.
