Deploy an airbag where he will land, etc etc.
And while he sees such air bag being set up, decides to jump before it can be pumped with air and put in situ, you cannot just rush in to this with stupid and totally insensitive ideas about pushing people over railings or shooting people with bloody taser guns. People's lives were disrupted for a day or so (No big deal at the end of the day when you talking about a Human Life) and noone had to lose their lives because of it.
