Bruce Mayrock was born may6, 1949 and he took his own life for people whom he never met before in may 30, 1969.

Two United Nations guards spotted the flames and chased the youth across the lawn with fire extingj- uishers. But Mayrock eluded theA�guards, racing in front of the North Lounge of the building before several hundred horrified delegates and onlookers. The student finally fell to his knees beside a statue bearing the Biblical inscription a�?Let us beat our swords into plowshares * and the guards extinguished the flames. Mayrock was rushed toAYellevue Hospital where he was listed in critical condition with burns over most of his body and was pronounced dead shortly after midnight. At the U.N., guards found a large cardboard sign on the front lawn which said, a�?You must stop the genocidea��please save 9 millionA�Biafrans.a�? At the bottom of the sign, a quotation read, a�?Peace is where there is an absence of fear of any kind.a�? hero on fireIn past years, two other persons have immolated themselves in front of the U.N.

Members of the youtha��s family stated Friday that he had workeda�� actively to protest the war in Biafra, writing letters about the war to the President and leading government figures. However, according to one rabbi, a�? who said he was close to the family, the student believed that a�?no one was listening.a�? a�?He was an idealistic young man deeply upset by the events in Biafra,a�? the rabbi said. a�?People were being killed and he felt no one was doing anything. Thata��s why he did what he did.a�?
