James East, 25, was on a night out in Kingston, London, with girlfriend Arabella Ashfield to celebrate her sister's 18th birthday but the couple became separated. They were talking on Facetime as he tried to make his way to a taxi his girlfriend was in.

But as he went to sit on a walled area of a bridge over the Thames, he misjudged its height before falling backwards and hitting his head.

He was rescued from the water after 50 minutes and rushed to hospital where medics spent three hours trying to save his life.

But it later emerged that he had already died from the head injuries suffered when he fell

River can kill? Non-swimmer?

If fall from a high enough height (about 100m), water in the river is as hard as concrete.

I presume that's why he died BEFORE he entered water as reported?

His head could have hit the bridge itself before plunging. So that's why he died?

Humpty Dumpty sat on the wall
Humpty Dumpty had a great fall
All the king's horses and all the king's men
Couldn't put Humpty together AGAIN
