Man Jumps to His Death to Escape Shoe Shopping with Girlfriend

Have you ever been so fed up with shopping that you just want to jump over a 7-story railing? Me neither, but that’s exactly what a man in China did after his girlfriend insisted on going to one more store.

38 year-old Tao Hsiao and his girlfriend had already been at the Golden Eagle International mall in China for 5 hours on Saturday when she insisted on going to one more store to check out a sale on shoes. When he reminded her that he’d already been following her around and carrying her bags for hours and that she already had more shoes than she could possibly wear, and wouldn't back down, Tao dropped the bags, climbed over the seventh floor railing, and leaped to his death!

Look, I hate shopping as much as the next guy, but this seems a bit drastic, no?
