Kiyoko Matsumoto

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In 1933 a 19 year-old student, Kiyoko Matsumoto, committed suicide by jumping into the thousand foot crater of a volcano on the island of Oshima, Japan. This act started a bizarre fashion in Japan and in the ensuing months three hundred children did the same thing.
