  • The clip apparently taken from school CCTV was posted to LiveLeak today
  • Suicide is the number one cause of death among young people in China






A pupil at a Chinese high school is seen apparently leaping to his death in surveillance camera footage that has been uploaded to the Internet.

The clip shows the scene in a crowded classroom as pupils settle down for a lesson. They all appear to be preparing their materials, save for one student who sits motionless in the bottom right.

Just as the youngsters appear ready to start their lesson, that boy suddenly stands up at his desk and runs to the nearest side of the room.

Although that part of the room is out of shot, it is understood that he leapt from a window - a conclusion that seems backed up by the distraught response of fellow pupils.
