It's ashame..
I can't imagine anything happening in my life that would take me down that road. I wonder what the reaction will be (if any).

Tragic - thought I remember first time I saw all of those terraces, and thought it's only a matter of time before someone has a really bad run at the tables, or some other craziness, and jump."Bringing a girl to Vegas is like bringing a warm beer to a bar that serves FREE COLD BEERS... and everyone sitting there just spilling Cold Beer all over the place and you have to pretend you just loooove your warm beer." - Andy Haynes

That is heart breaking! He was so young!! How horrible for his parents!
I feel sorry for people who don't drink, when they get up in the morning, that's best they're gonna feel all day!Comment

man poor dude :\ I was just there this past weekend. stayed on the 35th floor, wraparound terrace. Plenty of space if you wanted to jump off
Why from the fourth floor though? I assume he knew it wasnt going to be a sure death, I'd give a 4th floor fall a 50/50 chance of survival unless he jumped head first
really? What other hotel near or on the strip besides MGM Signature has balconies? i wonder how often this happens there if ever...Originally posted by MikeyTantalo View PostLast edited by Vater; 03-04-2011, 02:35 PM.Bachelor Party Aug 16-19th!Comment

The IP has them.. of course, if you are staying at the IP, I think the chances of you jumping go up just because of that
Sahara, Tropicana, the back of Bally's I think, Venetian has them on some of the suite / villa rooms.Comment

Thats tragic.
I thought about that while there. We stayed at the Marriott (next to PH) and I saw this hotel with Balconies and all I could think was what if someone jumped or fell.Comment

Didn't jump from a balcony. It was a ledge on the 14th floor by the pool on the west tower. If you search, you'll find a picture taken by someone staying on Aria's 52nd floor.Comment
