An Upper East Side man jumped 18 floors to his death last night -- narrowly missing Starbucks customers leisurely enjoying coffee below.
Todd Crockett, 37, leaped from his apartment window at about 6 p.m. and landed in the patio of the Starbucks at the base of his building at 351 E. 84th St.
Rachel Mullin, 34, of the Upper East Side, was reading a magazine when Crockett landed only feet away from her.
"It was a like big bang. He almost fell on top of me," she said. "Everybody started yelling and screaming to get out of the way. I literally had blood on me. I feel lucky he didn't fall on top of me.
"Do I wish I picked a different Starbucks today? Oh, yeah."
Crockett was described as a quiet tenant who kept an immaculate apartment, according to building superintendent José Alicea -- who said it wasn't the first suicide at the building.
"You can never get used to seeing something like that," Alicea said. "It was totally gruesome."
