This book was released on 2015-05-07 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On 8 December 2014, the body of bankrupt property tycoon Scot Young was found impaled on the railings below his ?3-million penthouse apartment. The police felt his death was not suspicious, but a Russian radio station asked: 'Did he jump or was he pushed?' Soon everyone was wondering.For six years, Young had been fighting an acrimonious divorce case. His wife accused him of hiding his vast wealth offshore; he claimed that he had lost it all in an ill judged Moscow property deal, yet opted for jail rather than provide evidence. And although he claimed to have debts of over ?27 million, he was still seen driving a Ferrari and swigging champagne.Then his wife accused him of involvement with the Adams family, the notorious London crime syndicate. There were rumours, too, that he had fallen foul of the Russian mafia, who had once dangled him over a Dorchester Hotel balcony. Five businessmen involved in the property deal died in strange circumstances, three in mysterious falls. One was Russian oligarch Boris Berezovsky, found hanged in his Berkshire home.Meanwhile, other super-rich friends - including Sir Philip Green and Simon Cowell - distanced themselves when Scot's dealings brought them into the spotlight, shunning any involvement in this strange conspiracy of silence.

Here is a world where living life on the edge is the only option, where you are only as good as your last jump . . . and where one false move can take you out of the game permanently. From mountain climbing and freestyle motocross to skydiving and snowboarding and beyond, in the past decade, the world of extreme sports has exploded onto the scene, with daredevils attempting acts of athleticism that leave spectators awed . . . and fearful. Being Extreme explores the motivations and societal impulses behind these high-risk lifestyles through interviews with professional athletes and recreational enthusiasts, as well as with psychiatrists who seek to understand the motivation behind these “Big T” personalities. Authors Gutman and Frederick also explore what heart-stopping sports are around the next curve, because in a world where the “rush” is everything, everyone is always upping their game.
Book Synopsis Radical Psychological Modes & Suicides by : Patty R. Gradsky
Download or read book Radical Psychological Modes & Suicides written by Patty R. Gradsky and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2019-06-18 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Radical Psychological Moods Dark Fall Of Bipolar And Unstable Minds And Suicide , is meant to be a direct parallel to “the (dark) fall of man.” There’s a direct link (in my opinion) to the creation (not evolution) of mankind in perfect balance in the beginning, (Genesis) before the fall. Suicide, to me, is the act of futility of a life without meaning, wrongly pushed to judgment by a fallen nature that’s rejected God.

Blinded by grief, blocked from knowing what had happened by conflicting accounts of the accident, she didn't know where she was. Nor where her search for information would take her. A true story. A memoir both personal and political. The book to read before you or someone you love tries skydiving.
Book Synopsis Jazz and Death by : Walter van de Leur
Download or read book Jazz and Death written by Walter van de Leur and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-12 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jazz and Death: Reception, Rituals, and Representations critically examines the myriad and complex interactions between jazz and death, from the New Orleans "jazz funeral" to jazz in heaven or hell, final recordings, jazz monuments, and the music’s own presumed death. It looks at how fans, critics, journalists, historians, writers, the media, and musicians have narrated, mythologized, and relayed those stories. What causes the fascination of the jazz world with its deaths? What does it say about how our culture views jazz and its practitioners? Is jazz somehow a fatal culture? The narratives surrounding jazz and death cast a light on how the music and its creators are perceived. Stories of jazz musicians typically bring up different tropes, ranging from the tragic, misunderstood genius to the notion that virtuosity somehow comes at a price. Many of these narratives tend to perpetuate the gendered and racialized stereotypes that have been part of jazz’s history. In the end, the ideas that encompass jazz and death help audiences find meaning in a complex musical practice and come to grips with the passing of their revered musical heroes -- and possibly with their own mortality.
