Off to a great start, what's that 4 deaths in 4 weeks?
This has been going on for the last at least 30 years! One of my coworkers, in the or at PRMC, greeted her patient with this statement! Congratulations, you are the first balcony jumper who has survived this year! Never let my kids work there! I am so not sorry!
It's cruising weekend. And it's raining. Nothing else to do but drink and party and we all know Ocean City has a bar on every corner so...not a family resort, no matter what that mayor trys to purport. I'm sorry for the families.
It's not the Gateway Grand if the hotel was on 22nd & The Beach. It's just "The Grand". The Gateway is on 49th. The Grand is also known for some pretty lax rules and some very rowdy clients.
That's exactly what I just posted, these people have no clue how small our town is. He's a very loved person and very sweet as well as responsible. A tragic accident. So please keep that in mind.
Please keep your comments and thoughts to yourself. My family and I would not like to read these horrible things as the grieving process is hard enough.
Please try and have some respect...he was a son, brother, uncle, friend and a great person. He was family to me. Stop being judgmental, and please keep your condescending comments to yourself. It could easily be someone you know, better yet...love!
Please have some respect, and keep your condescending, judmental, narrow minded comments to yourselves. He was a son, brother, uncle, friend, grandson. Our family is mourning the loss of this young man. Turn the tables...had this been someone you know, or love...you would want the same for them.
It does not state he intentionally jumped from a balcony so please keep yoir rude comments to yourself as his friends and family are pained by their loss
Every last one of you is disgusting. Except for the one who actually is praying for the family of the deceased. Shame on you all. A person died, regardless of the cause. I see you're all anonymous too. Smart.
No offense but don't read then. This is a site where people express themselves. I'm sorry for your loss. Just stating the truth. This is the one place our voices can be heard.
"Subject Falls"??? WTF does that even mean? He was clearly more than just a "subject". Sending his family and friends much love and best wishes for a speedy healing process.
Let the family grieve were you there?????? Do you know the story or just assuming have some morals for real I send this family my condulence and prayer's I'm very sorry forr you lose
These rude comments are uncalled for he didnt intentionally jump where is that said at? Prayers to this family amd and all friends. The negative commenta need to be kept to off here as he has family and friends that are grieving a tragic loss and the last thing they need to see is ignorant immature comments. A life was taken way to soon either say a lrayer or say nothimg..imagine if the the situation were reversed. Thoughts and prayers to the family amd friends.
I know this family personally They are great people & Jordan was a good kid Please pray for these people & think how you would feel if this was your family

If you don't want to see 'rude' comments I would suggest you not come to this site or read the comments. It doesn't matter if he WAS your most beloved friend, family member or not. It is something that happens in OC a lot. He is just another statistic now. Sorry for you loss and all that but you can't come on here and try to silence people.
That is everyone's first amendment right, even if it offends you. I just hate it when people tell others to keep things to themselves. And in this case it is not something that is spoken, ti is written on a blog. You voluntary came here and clicked on comments. What did you expect?
I don't think anyone is intentionally trying to be mean to him or you. So in the future, don't go somewhere where you might be offended.
Lisa B 1:56, I'm sorry, the SUBJECT didn't yell out his name at the time. Considering we delivered the Breaking News almost LIVE, there was NO NAME. Therefore he was a SUBJECT at the time. Get a life.
I just don't understand how you FALL off a balcony when there are guard rails unless your doing something your NOT suppose to be doing !!! They make it safe so people don't fall off , & someone how people still manage to do shit they aren't suppose to be doing !!
I wonder if he was leaning on the rail and it came loose or something. When my kids were little my hubby thiught I was nuts cuz I wouldn't let them on the balconies at hotels for this very reason
I was at the Hotel when I happened. I talked to someone who saw it happen. So many assumptions on here. So very sad regardless of why it happened. People should be more considerate of the deceased man's family and friends regardless of the reason he fell. Prayers to them and may he RIP.
It's irrelevant what people say on here. Jordan was a good guy and a sweetheart. Regardless of what happened or how, he will be remembered with love and miss by many. RIP J. We love you dude.
If only any of you an your nasty assumptions could have gotten the chance to know the man!! Im so lucky to have been able to know him an have the most fantastic memories!! You will always be missed an never forgotten hess! Love you man
Though it is tragic and heartbreaking this scenario in OC is a common occurrence yearly. The fact is it almost 100% always due to alcohol. to the prior post what EXACTLY IS THE correspondence with OC and family values and entertainment??? The whole city is geared and driven by alcohol related agendas. Good grief now secrets is in the distillery business
how the hell do you even have the heart to say that to a family who just lost someone so dearly to them.. this page might be a place to state your opinions but not with this certain subject. you have no right to "voice your opinion" on a guy you didn't even know to a family member of the guy.. just blows my mind how fucking rude some people can be. you have to be pretty messed up in the head to think what you said was okay to say to someone who just lost a family memember. this is why people do things like this. I'm so sorry your mother never taught you maners, lol seriously dude. so sorry for the families loss, wish I could do more to help..
Until families are notified it's best to keep details like 'male female adult juvenile etc' to a minimum. Subject is as good as this bad scenario calls for. Prayers to the family.
Maybe in the past, but not now. Grand is now under new mgmnt as of a few weeks ago. Big changes, all for the better. This was not from someone being rowdy. Enuf said.
You are so right. It is a tragedy and our prayers are with you. As for the other calloused hearts...karma is a bitch! God bless you at this difficult time.
I'm so sorry for your loss thoughts and prayers see with everyone close.to all the rude people please put yourself in the families shoes you would not like people saying all that RUDE stuff so stop and say a prayer for them
I was there when this tragic event happened. My heart breaks for all that knew this young man, and for the guest that were concerned for those that were here with him. I can say we sent out thoughts and prayers to you and hope his memories live on, cherish your time with family and friends as it seems he did.
Once again humanity dissapoints. Why are people so angry they can turn a tragedy (no matter the cause) into a full blown bitch fest. It's sad and disgusting. To the friends and family of the deceased, I'm sorry for your loss and my sympathies to you for all the anger and unkindness expressed here. I pray you find some peace somehow.

And the June bug season has started....
This has been going on for the last at least 30 years! One of my coworkers, in the or at PRMC, greeted her patient with this statement! Congratulations, you are the first balcony jumper who has survived this year! Never let my kids work there! I am so not sorry!
Somehow ocean city will fine the individual. All the new restrictions. I bet we will see a death fine. If you die in the town you'll be fined for it.
It's cruising weekend. And it's raining. Nothing else to do but drink and party and we all know Ocean City has a bar on every corner so...not a family resort, no matter what that mayor trys to purport. I'm sorry for the families.
Gee whiz. Good thing they're ticketing swear worda and harrassing musicians.
This guy was an amazing friend of mine please keep the harsh comments to yourself :'(
OC is still a family town, plenty of things for families to do!!! KEEP them out of the bars and you won't have a problem!!!!
How terrible. Prayers to the loved ones of this person!

1131 if the person starts by stating the first amendment it usually follows with hate...

Could raising the height of balcony railings in OC help with preventing tragedies such as this? Even one life saved is worth it.
To those of you who lost your friend, Jordan, I am sorry for your loss. I am praying for his family and friends affected by this tragedy.
how the hell do you even have the heart to say that to a family who just lost someone so dearly to them.. this page might be a place to state your opinions but not with this certain subject. you have no right to "voice your opinion" on a guy you didn't even know to a family member of the guy.. just blows my mind how fucking rude some people can be. you have to be pretty messed up in the head to think what you said was okay to say to someone who just lost a family memember. this is why people do things like this.

communist

Really? Because people are idiots the hotel's should be required to spend more $'s? Typical liberal
I pull security duty in Ocean City Maryland...
Although I am not saying JORDAN did this, but it is fairly common for folks to "Balcony Jump" for tricks and giggles...
I have stopped many folks from "Balcony Jumping" to prevent falls like this.
Maybe in the past, but not now. Grand is now under new mgmnt as of a few weeks ago. Big changes, all for the better. This was not from someone being rowdy. Enuf said.
You are so right. It is a tragedy and our prayers are with you. As for the other calloused hearts...karma is a bitch! God bless you at this difficult time.

Try cleaning up ur language idiot. Grow up think outside the box. Joe didn't know the person's name as it went to press.
We were staying at the hotel when it happened. I'm so sorry for your loss and prayers for his family and friends. So very sad!!
My heart breaks for the guy he ran into and the police doing there jon NOT a Idiot putting everyome elses lives at risk.
So sad 😞ðŸ˜

He made that choice.
y dont u pay for it liberal?.
And again, humanity disappoints
Typical liberals blame everone else and not the perp.
Wow, that's intelligent dialogue.
3:02 Just a shot in the dark, but I'm guessing you're voting for Hillary!
