Acton Man
Found On: 26th June 2010
On Saturday, 26th June 2010, a man tragically took his own life by jumping from a bridge near North Acton railway station in London, landing on the tracks below. Despite extensive investigations, his identity remains unknown.
What we know
The man was described as a white European male, aged between 30 and 50 years old, standing 175cm (5ft 8in) tall with a slim build. He had dark brown, short, receding hair, brown eyes, and stubble. His most distinguishing feature is a series of tattoos that covered various parts of his body.
The tattoos, which appear to have been done over several years by different artists, include a green, yellow, and dark red dragon on his left chest, a red and orange dragon on his right chest, a green dog breathing fire on his left back, and a bird of prey, possibly a vulture or eagle, on his right back. His arms display various black tribal designs. The tattoos seem to be a mix of professional and amateur work, featuring common "tribal" motifs and mythological figures, suggesting a personal history that may have spanned multiple locations and stages of his life.
At the time he was found, Acton Man was wearing a casual dark blue jacket with nothing underneath, khaki trousers, and dark or black canvas-style shoes. He had no personal possessions or identifiable items on him, and his clothing lacked any brand labels.
