sad stories of have a go heroes
there's a little park near st paul's cathedral which has a whole row of memorial stones for people who died whilst trying (not all successfully) to save others.
the stories are fascinating yet really sad. well worth clicking on the pictures to read the inscriptions.
i've walked through this park loads of times but this was the first time i've spotted them. i was actually looking for this
I recognise this from the film "Closer". Wikipedia tells me it's Postman's Park:
