The man who plunged to his death in an apparent suicide jump off the Empire State building was a junior from Yale University.
Twenty-one-year-old Cameron Dabaghi from Austin, Texas, jumped from the 86th floor Tuesday. That floor has an observation deck open to the public.
He was dead when rescue workers arrived at the 102-story skyscraper shortly before 6:30 p.m.
The university said in a statement that it was extending support to the student's family and friends, and making counselors available.
The Empire State Building is the third-tallest building in the United States. More than 30 people have committed suicide at the building since it opened in 1931. The most recent was believed to have been in 2006. Remind me that it can never get that bad. i'm never that mad at myself that I need to kill myself
