Yukio Shige

Tojinbo cliff , JAPAN

YUKIO SHIGE


The retired policemean was walking alone along the 1.4km cliff daily,
since 2004 - the best known suicide spots.
His private mission to prevent people leaping, by persuading someone to stay alive.


When he spots a person standing on the edge of the cliff,
he talks to them gently and brings them back to his cafe,
where he serves them warm rice cake.


Reports say he have prevented 167 people from leaping.......
