The Sunshine Skyway bridge spans the mouth of Tampa Bay on the west coast of Florida. It carries thousands of cars everyday. It's also become one of the top ten places to end your life. This is the story of the many who jumped, one lucky guy who survived, and how broken bones and a collapsed lung made him a new man. First aired in May 2011 on KCRW's "Unfictional," later on various other stations, PRX's Public Radio Remix and Transom.org.
That's a moving piece, Rich. You've got a great storytelling touch.
