Schoolmate: You know if you jump off the high dive platform
the wrong way you can break your neck and die.
Jonathan Brandis: Really? That's ... that's .. interesting.
God's voice: If you want my advice, you're going to kill yourself
when you're twenty-seven anyway, so go ahead.
Jonathan Brandis: But if I live until I'm twenty-seven, I'll be even
more famous and have a lot of fun, right?
God's voice: Honestly? You'll make a bunch of bad movies and star
in a bad TV series, and by the time you die, no one will
remember you or care. But if you do it now, there are
all these girls and boys who will feel really sad,
and it'll be a tragic loss.
Jonathan Brandis: So guess what? God told me I'm going to kill myself
when I'm twenty-seven. Weird, right?
Dad: There's no arguing with God, that's for sure.
Jonathan Brandis: But if I kill myself now, God says it'll have a much
bigger impact on the world.
Dad's voice: God knows everything, that's for sure.
Jonathan Brandis: So I'm going to put my suicide note on the table
next to my bed. I mean if you want to read it.
Dad's voice: I guess I'll want to read it, yeah.
Jonathan Brandis: If I don't do this right, I might just end up
paralyzed and pathetic. Can you help me, God?
God's voice: You being paralyzed is not an uninteresting idea.
It worked for Christopher Reeve.
Jonathan Brandis: But I don't want to be like that. I don't want to
inspire hope. I want to make people cry and imagine what a famous
star and handsome guy I would have grown up to be.
God's voice: All right, fine, let me think for a second.
God's voice: There. That's Niagara Falls. Now you can jump any way
you want, and you'll definitely die. Happy?
Jonathan Brandis: Yeah, very.
Jonathan Brandis: Look at all those boys and girls down there
looking up at me and thinking, 'That's Jonathan Brandis. He's my
favorite actor. Oh my God, he's going to jump. What's wrong with
him? Someone please stop him.'
God's voice: Hey, kid, you want him to jump? I can make him jump.
Boy standing by Niagara Falls: Yeah, make him jump.

Sorry, posting song texts is a bad habit but it kinda fits xD
Spring (by RAMMSTEIN, the German lyrics are a bit more poetic.)
Someone should mix "Spring" ("Jump") with "Spring nicht" ("Don't Jump", by Tokio Hotel) ^__^

On a bridge, quite high
A man holds his arms open
There he stands and still hesitates
Right away the people swarm in droves
I won't miss out on it either
I want to see it up close
I get into the first row
And scream
The man wants to climb from the bridge
The people begin to hate
They form a dense crowd
And don't want to let him down
So he climbs back up
And the mob begins to rage
They want his innards
And scream
Jump
Redeem me
Jump
Don't disappoint me
Jump for me
Jump into the light
Jump
Now the man begins to cry
A cloud moves in secret
Asking himself what have I done
in front of the sun, it gets cold
I just wanted to see the view
the people break ranks
and look into the evening sky
And they scream
Jump
They scream
Jump
Redeem me
Jump
Don't disappoint me
Jump for me
Jump into the light
Jump
A cloud moves in secret
in front of the sun, it gets cold
But a thousand suns burn just for you
I creep onto the bridge in secret
and kick him in the back from behind
I redeem him from this shame
and I scream to him
Jump
Jump
Redeem yourself
Jump
Don't disappoint me
Jump for me
Jump
Don't disappoint me
