The mysterious bridge where dogs go to kill themselves

Fifty pooches have leapt off the 50-foot bridge since the 1950s — and no one’s sure why, according to Vice UK. The Daily Mail reported in 2006 that five dogs jumped to their deaths in six months alone a year before.

Some 600 more dogs are said to have flung themselves off the bridge from the same exact spot and survived — after which some of them get back up and try to jump all over again.

Local Donna Cooper lost her collie, Ben, in 2005 to the deadly bridge. She tells the Daily Mail, “His paw was broken, his jaw was broken and his back was broken and badly twisted. The vet decided it wasn’t worth putting him through the pain, so we had to let him go.”
