Cheerful, suicidal

During my morning Caltrain rides I often see a guy waltzing across the train fist-bumping and chatting with passengers. Today I came to meet him again, and I took the chance asking him why he is so cheerful.

“I am suicidal” was his reply.

The conversation was overheard by a nearby train conductor who later brought another conductor towards me and asked me to repeat what I heard. Turned out that they need to report such cases to the police to prevent suicide attempts.
