Did Y’all Know The Infamous “Falling Man” 9/11 Guy was Black?

[cozy carl]

Watch the 6 part documentary National Geographic just did on Hulu.. the most unseen footage ever released.. crazy shyt

I'm watching this now
​

One firefighter was actually killed by a body falling on him

Interesting​

Damn I can only imagine what was going through breh head

At that moment he was prolly just at peace, those couple of seconds must’ve felt like hours to him

One of those moments where you just go “fukk it this is it, there’s no turning back now, it’s really over”

Better death than the whole building caving on you
Honestly in that moment I have no idea what I'd do

Hold out and die when the whole building collapses on you
Burn to death trying to wiggle your way down a fire that is strong enough to burn through beams
Or jump knowing your going to die but at least it will be over in ten seconds

Had no idea

Makes it even sadder for me


Why did Bush knock down the towers...?

 

[OfTheCross]

i would've grabbed the wall and slid down.
let the friction of my body against the building slow me down.
might bust my ankles but it's better than jumping.

give up, brehs...

I've always said the same thing

First rate trolling

I ignore most of this posters responses but admire the consistency

"Might have bussed my ankles ...".

​

If a person survived that fall and random organs explode on impact along with turning every bone in your body into gold medal flour...
You'd pray for death

 

[[Something Cool]]

Jumping was a better alternative than being burned or buried alive.

Right, in that situation you'd have to be like “well fukk, I'm already dead. It's just how am I going to die now.” Crazy shyt, RIP to all those people.

Lowkey that must’ve felt like heaven to breh. The fresh air. The cooling rush from all the heat. Even if it was only for a couple seconds, damn

 

[BelowTheMasonDixon]

To think over 40% of people that died that day haven’t been found

What happened to the bodies, burned up completely, to broken to identify, etc?

 

[Mʀ2ᴋDᴇᴇᴢ]

I wonder did anyone consider going to the top floor and ride the building down?

I survived 9/11 by surfing 15 floors on slab of concrete

 

[Goat poster]

imagine 9/11 in this day and age?
people on fb live and instagram live im stuck on the 140th floor and ish

Actually an interesting yet scary thought

 

[Buckeye Fever]

You reminded me of it just now. I forgot all about it

".....2 broken windows..........


*TOWER STARTS TO COLLAPSE*


"OH GOD!!!! OHHHHHHH!!!!!"

Actually an interesting yet scary thought

Was watching a new documentary on netflix about it. Bunch of dudes were stuck in a elevator, the janitor had a scalper and they dug themselves out. Many other people were stuck on elevators and sol.

Its crazy now in this covid day if that happened last year like no one would have prob been in the building.

There’s two things I wouldn’t want to imagine having to make a decision on that day...

Jumping from a window is one of them....don’t think I would have been able to do it. I would have went to the roof and just talked on the phone to my loved ones before the end came.
