1200 Nigerians show interest as Film Director seeks people who can jump from 3rd mainland bridge into the Lagoon for N1m

July 16, 2025

1200 Nigerians have shown interest as a Film Director, one Martins on X seeks 5 people who can jump into the Lagos Lagoon from 3rd mainland bridge for the sum of N1m

He says it’s for a shoot, and the money will be paid once the perfect shot is gotten.

Nigerians in their numbers have flooded the man’s comment section begging to be picked.

Most of them claim they could swim, and needed the money.

However the Film Director was fast to reply them, saying, they must be professional divers and not just ordinary people, but Nigerians kicked saying they can carry out the task if the money is assured.

Felix tweeted this afternoon;

”I need like 5 people who can jump from the 3rd mainland bridge to the water for a shoot.
Fee : 1M per person.
P.S. Safety measures are in place, and help is readily available.”

An X user who felt, the job could lead the Director into trouble, advised him, to get the volunteers to sign an agreed document stating they know the risks involved.

She tweeted; ”Are they jumping into the water directly or they’ll land on something? If directly into the water, I think it should only be for those that can swim. You should educate them on the risks and should sign a document too, that they are fully aware of the risk involved.”

As Nigerians won’t have it, and insist they must jump, another person directly addressed them, WARNING it could lead to drowning.

He tweeted;

”FYI: you’ll hit the water at about 55 km/h so the water well feel like solid concrete, you’ll fracture your bones( ribs, probably head, legs), risk of internal bleeding and risk of unconsciousness which could result to drowning.

So think, is 1m worth all of this?”
