Easy as falling off of a bridge

Because there’s little else to do in Bloomington, Minnesota, a couple of early 20-somethings decided to play on a bridge. That’s all fine, until the 23-year-old man that pretended to fall off of a bridge that goes over the Minnesota River actually fell off of the bridge.

Police got a call around 5 a.m. Sunday from a 21-year-old that is friends with the jumper. He called the police to say his friend fell off of the Highway 77 bridge and into a marshy area at least 30 feet below where he was standing.

The called admitted to drinking and driving as was his friend. Seems that being retarded is normal, as he admitted to police that he was drinking and driving. When the friend pulled into the emergency lane so he could urinate, the fun ensued.

The 23-year-old climbed onto the ledge of the bridge and then feigned falling a couple times, when his prentending became actually falling.
