Sorry I probably shouldn't make light. Please tell the whole story.
The actual story: We were riding the Little Miami bike trail and passed under the Jeremiah Morrow bridge shortly before hitting our turn around point about a quarter mile down the trail. As we're approaching the bridge from the other direction I see a semi truck parked on the bridge directly above the trail and there was someone looking over the edge. For context this bridge is like 250 ft. above the trail. As we get right below the bridge I noticed the body of (what we presumed to be) the driver of that semi right off the edge of the trail. We stopped and immediately called the police, they arrived shortly after and shut the trail down. The sheriff took our information and we headed home.We think that it occurred in the few minutes after we crossed under the first time. Quite a somber experience, especially when you think about the fact that he could've easily landed on someone and killed them as well.
