Man Tries To Commit Suicide By Tying Self To Tree For Six Days. It Didn’t Work.

Police found him alive after hikers looking for their runaway dog Tuesday evening heard his pleas for help in a remote area of Cypress Bowl Road.

The 48-year-old man in distress could not be reached because of the rough terrain, although he was able to tell police he had gone there six days ago to commit suicide and had chained himself to a tree.

West Vancouver police launched a rescue operation with the North Shore Search and Rescue Team, as well as fire and ambulance personnel.

The man was conscious when he was reached but rescuers required the assistance of a helicopter to airlift him to safety.

He was later taken to hospital for an assessment, although police say it’s believed the man will survive the ordeal.

JOKESTARTERS:

• In a sad twist of events, the tree was found dead after suffocating from six full days of this idiot’s body odor.
• Not to be outdone, Al Gore tied himself to a tree with the intention of not being released until global warming is solved. Sadly, he didn’t tell anyone which tree in which forest.
