Glad you finally agree that Van Zan didn't swing his axe.Now his "intentions" are speculation, but I'm inclined to agree that he "intended" to attack, but clearly failed to, which goes with the theme of his character for the entire movie. Van Zan = Failure. Humanity was lucky Quinn was there.
"Intending to attack" also doesn't take away that it was a suicide jump, as he would have known it was a one way trip no matter what. Ergo, he committed suicide cos he failed consistently and even his last move ended in a failure. Really makes sense in a contextual manner, poor-man's Captain Ahab. Terribly written character, imo.
It Wasnt a suicide jump. You're an idiot. Wiki supports me not you.
