QINGDAO, CHINA – JUNE 20, 2024 Photos and videos show the aftermath of the suicide jump of a 22-year-old Chinese woman. She went heavily into debt on so-called naked loans. These are loans that have no collateral and usually have exorbitant interest rates. She probably didn’t know how to get out of this situation, so she chose death. She jumped down from the window of a tall office building.
