During 1965-79, 124 deaths occurred at Beachy Head cliffs. A coroner's verdict of suicide was returned in 58. The yearly numbers increased during the period along with a reduction in the proportion of suicide verdicts. At least 115 of the deaths were almost certainly suicides, and the most likely cause for the change in the proportion of suicide verdicts was a change of coroner. The reputation of the place, the publicity given to each suicide, the accessibility of the site, and the lack of preparation required all influence the choice of this method and it may be replacing other ways of suicide locally.
1965年至1979年间，比奇角悬崖发生了124起死亡事件。验尸官判定其中58起为自杀。在此期间，死亡事件的年数量有所增加，同时自杀判定的比例有所下降。至少115起死亡几乎可以肯定是自杀，而自杀判定比例变化的最可能原因是验尸官的更换。该地的名声、每起自杀事件的曝光度、地点的可达性以及所需准备的缺乏，都对这种自杀方式的选择产生影响，而且它可能正在取代当地其他自杀方式。
