British DJ's VAN HALEN Outrage
January 18, 2010Yahoo! Music News reports that a British DJ has come underfire from mental health groups after playing VAN HALEN's "Jump" moments before a suicidal woman leapt from a bridge.
Steve Penk was broadcasting on 96.2FM The Revolution recently when four lanes of the M60 had to be closed because of the drama.
As police attempted to talk the woman down, a listener phoned in to request the rock classic, which was then aired.
Penk played it after expressing his sympathy for road users, but the unidentified individual then jumped from the 30ft bridge.
