Once I was in San Francisco, walking along the Golden Gate Bridge,

0:00:13.815,0:00:19.860
and I saw this guy on the bridge about to jump.

0:00:19.860,0:00:26.040
I thought I'd try to stall him, detain him, long enough for me to put the film in.

0:00:26.040,0:00:34.140
I said, "Don't jump!"

0:00:34.140,0:00:35.160
And he turns.

0:00:35.160,0:00:37.095
You heard of the elephant man,

0:00:37.095,0:00:41.505
he had the head like the head of a horse.

0:00:41.505,0:00:43.680
My heart went out to him,

0:00:43.680,0:00:46.560
and I said, "Why the long face? "

0:00:46.560,0:00:54.270
He said, "All my life,

0:00:54.270,0:01:01.255
people have called me cruel names like flicka, or trigger, silver,

0:01:01.255,0:01:03.315
chess piece." I says, "Well,

0:01:03.315,0:01:10.040
don't worry about it, Ed.

0:01:10.040,0:01:13.520
They can't be that bad." He said, "Oh yeah? How would you

0:01:13.520,0:01:17.410
like to go through your whole life as a freak?"

0:01:17.410,0:01:19.335
I said, "Well. " He said, "Well,

0:01:19.335,0:01:27.540
you're a bad example."

0:01:27.540,0:01:29.835
I said, "Come on,

0:01:29.835,0:01:36.320
you're not the only person in this world sad over their few problems.

0:01:36.320,0:01:41.040
Don't be mule-headed. Stop horsing around,

0:01:41.040,0:01:44.660
and get down from there, you silly mini."

0:01:44.660,0:01:50.290
He said, "Why go on? In a 100 years,

0:01:50.290,0:01:53.445
the planet will be uninhabitable.

0:01:53.445,0:01:57.645
In 10 million years the sun will burn out.

0:01:57.645,0:02:03.810
In a 100 billion years all matter will disintegrate from the universe."

0:02:03.810,0:02:06.040
I said, "Perhaps,

0:02:06.040,0:02:14.490
but in the meantime, in-between time.

0:02:14.490,0:02:18.665
Besides, you're forgetting about God."

0:02:18.665,0:02:21.315
He said, "How do you know there's a God?"

0:02:21.315,0:02:24.045
I said, "Of course there is a God.

0:02:24.045,0:02:27.980
Do you think billions of years ago a bunch of

0:02:27.980,0:02:33.590
molecules floating around at random without rhyme or

0:02:33.590,0:02:37.700
reason could someday have had the sense of humor to make you

0:02:37.700,0:02:44.270
look like that?"

0:02:44.270,0:02:46.765
He said, "I used to believe in God."

0:02:46.765,0:02:49.080
I said, "That's good.

0:02:49.080,0:02:52.020
Were you a Christian or a Jew?"

0:02:52.020,0:02:53.820
He said, "A Christian."

0:02:53.820,0:02:55.380
I said, "Me too.

0:02:55.380,0:02:57.450
Protestant or Catholic?"

0:02:57.450,0:02:58.875
He said, "Protestant."

0:02:58.875,0:03:00.015
I said, "Me too.

0:03:00.015,0:03:01.500
What franchise?"

0:03:01.500,0:03:04.140
He said, "Baptist."

0:03:04.140,0:03:05.640
I said, "Me too.

0:03:05.640,0:03:08.100
Northern Baptist or a Southern Baptist?"

0:03:08.100,0:03:09.600
He said, "Northern Baptist."

0:03:09.600,0:03:11.070
I said, "Me too.

0:03:11.070,0:03:14.880
Northern Conservative Baptist or Northern Liberal Baptist?"

0:03:14.880,0:03:17.010
He said, "Northern conservative Baptist."

0:03:17.010,0:03:18.405
I said, "Me too.

0:03:18.405,0:03:23.510
Northern conservative fundamentalist Baptist to Northern Conservative Reformed Baptist?"

0:03:23.510,0:03:26.550
He says, "Northern conservative fundamentalist Baptist."

0:03:26.550,0:03:27.870
I said, "Me too.

0:03:27.870,0:03:31.440
North conservative fundamentalist Baptist Great Lakes region

0:03:31.440,0:03:34.910
or Northern conservative fundamentalist Baptist Eastern region?"

0:03:34.910,0:03:38.090
He said, "Northern conservative fundamentalist Baptist Great Lakes region."

0:03:38.090,0:03:39.380
I said, "Me too.

0:03:39.380,0:03:44.600
Northern conservative fundamentalist Baptist Great Lakes region Council of 1879,

0:03:44.600,0:03:49.280
or Northern Conservative fundamentalist Baptist Great Lakes region council of 1912?"

0:03:49.280,0:03:51.780
He said, "Northern Conservative Fundamentals part because

0:03:51.780,0:03:54.660
Great Lakes region council of 1912."

0:03:54.660,0:03:57.480
I said, "Die, you heretic!"

0:03:57.480,0:04:16.210
And I pushed him off.
