Suicide Attempt Thwarted By Freak Wave

The occasional signs and wonders can, well, do wonders to keep faith alive. In some cases, they actually keep you alive. An Australian newspaper reported just recently that a man who attempted suicide at a notorious cliff in Sydney was saved from death by a rogue wave which—by at least one reporter’s account —shortened the length of his otherwise 600-foot fall and immediately washed him onto the shore below, where he was found unharmed by a rescuers. Quite a second chance indeed.
