The unfortunate lovers in St. Petersburg have a peculiar fashion - to commit suicide by throwing themselves in a waterfall. Their number was increasing, and a special order was issued - to refuse at the Finland Station to young people who asked for a one-way ticket to Imatra. And in Imatra, local authorities allocated a certain amount to the peasants who lived downstream of the river for the burial of the drowned.
