 The Thursday episode, where a bridge is shot from different angles  while different names, ages and occupations are superimposed over  the screen, is a real bridge near Berlin. It is also known as "the  bridge of tears", as it is commonly used by suicidal jumpers. The  name list seen in the movie is of actual people, a complete list of  those who jumped off the bridge during the preceding year of the  movies shooting.
