A description of the video says: 'High school student Xiao Zhen leaps to his death from a a window in the middle of class. It is believed this happened due to pressure of preparing for college entrance exams.'
In most countries in the West, accidents are the biggest cause of death for young people.
The unusually high suicide rate among Chinese youth has been blamed on intense pressure to succeed in school, where the education system places great emphasis on grades and status at the expense of healthy social lives.
China goes way to overboard with the education and succeeding. They don't how to balance it out. It's like they constantly put these kids to work non-stop. I've heard many stories where young Asian kids commit suicide because the are under pressure. This is not the first case. There needs to be a balance.
