[ WP ] A man is standing on the edge of a bridge , about to jump . A crowd of curious onlookers has gathered around him , with many trying to talk him out of it . The remains silent but finally speaks , saying only five words . The entire crowd immediately jumps off the bridge .

This prompt reminds me of the music video [ Just ] ( http: //www.youtube.com/watch? v=-_qMagfZtv8 ) by Radiohead.

 A newspaper trundled along the bridge in the light wind; the day's weather report boasted of that night's cloudless sky. 
 
 The man stood on the railings as most of the world dutifully carried on around him, either oblivious to his plight or not caring about it. 
 
 Only a small crowed had gathered; one or two bystanders had the presence of mind to call for help, while some others were trying to convince the man to step down from the railings, decrying the act as `` not safe'' - which was, of course, precisely why the man had chosen that location. Most bystanders, however, were taking pictures and videos to share with their friends, indifferent to the welfare of the man. 
 
 The cries from the bystanders were getting louder, the sirens were getting nearer, and the man on the railings was getting restless. 
 
 With a sigh, he cleared his throat and motioned for his congregation to quieten. 
 
 The man on the railings looked at each person in turn, before saying five words: `` Where has the moon gone?''
