Teenagers hold hands in suicide jumpHow tragic, i wonder what on earth was so bad that they had to do this
| Quote: | The pair plunged more than 100ft from the Erskine Bridge shortly before 9pm last night.
Scotland's Daily Record newspaper is reporting that the pair were teenage girls who were seen holding hands as they leapt.
They were pulled from the River Clyde near the bridge after a search involving police, fire and rescue services, a Coastguard helicopter and the Ministry of Defence.
The Erskine Bridge connects Renfrewshire and West Dunbartonshire and is a notorious suicide spot.
A Coastguard source told the Record: "The information that we have is that it was two teenagers and that they held hands as they jumped from the bridge.
"They were clearly in the water for a long time and it is very rarely that anyone lives after a fall like that."

They were both attending a local school for people with emotional disorders which gives a clue I guess but it is terribly sad
