11 people jumped out a second-floor window in France in the belief that the devil was chasing them.
The bizarre incident occured in La Verriere at 3 in the morning when people in the apartment misidentified a man with no clothes on who got up to feed his baby as a demon and attempted to escape by jumping out of the window.
Eleven people jumped out of a second-floor window Saturday after apparently thinking they had seen the devil, French authorities said.

I personally think drugs and alchohol must have been involved for 11 people to jump out of a window because they thought they saw the devil. They should be put into rehab and given councelling to make sure this fiasco doesn't happen again.

If they were not on drugs when they jumped... maybe they should be.

A baby died when a family of 12 leapt from their second floor balcony in Paris claiming they were fleeing the devil. Link to story A baby died when a family of 12 leapt from their second floor balcony in Paris claiming they were fleeing the devil. The police said there was no evidence of drugs or religious paraphernalia. Weird. Could this guy actually have been the devil temporarily?

They've already done a topic on this several days ago Oversword, just a heads up. Perhaps they can merge it? There was actually more to the story I believe. They're just dumb imo.

A-it says there where 11 friends watching tv in the other room.............(what the hell are 12 people doing living in one house????)........i asume the other 8 where out side the house and injured when they jumped.......so basically some crazed woman saw her husband naked when she woke and thought it was the devil
