The following is a list of current and historic sites frequently chosen to attempt suicide, usually by jumping. Some of the sites listed have installed suicide barriers, signs advising potential suicides to take other actions, and other precautions, such as crisis hotline phones.
Exact numbers of victims are sometimes difficult to determine, as many jurisdictions and media agencies have ceased collecting statistics and reporting suicides at common sites, in the belief that the reporting may encourage others.
Locations with highest suicide rate
- Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, Nanjing, Jiangsu – VKK
- Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, California, United States – more than 1,600 known suicides; the number is believed to be higher because of people whose bodies were never found.
- Prince Edward Viaduct, Toronto, Ontario, Canada – 492 suicides before the Luminous Veil, a barrier of 9,000 steel rods, was constructed in 2003.
- Aokigahara forest, Mount Fuji, Japan – as many as 105 suicides a year, though the number may be higher.
