Niagara falls has earned a grisly reputation as the suicide capital of the U.S., second only to San Francisco's Golden Gate Bridge.
Experts estimate there are between 20 to 25 suicides at the Falls each year.
In 1996, local historian Paul Gromosiak compiled a list of 2,780 known suicides at the site between 1856 and 1995.
It became so prolific that in 1991 the American Journal of Public Health commissioned a full report.
It found 60 people killed themselves from the Falls between 1978 and 1988.
Of those, 59 per cent were men and 41 per cent were women. The average age for women was 38, and for men it was 39.
According to local newspaper the Niagara Falls Reporter, Memorial Day 'traditionally marks the beginning of the suicide season'.
