The most controversial picture ever..

[Rawr]

I was watching a show last night on channel 4 called ''The Falling Man'' it was all about the 9/11 attacks and why the ''jumpers'' never got the publicity from 9/11.

I think this photo defines 9/11 and how horrific the attack was. It made people choose between burning/chocking to death or jumping and having a 99.9% chance of dieing. It really makes you think what would you do?

I want to know YOUR VIEWS on this photo, would it define 9/11 for you or are you very much against it? If you wish say what you would do in that situation?

There are larger version, but I thought they were too close and too graphic.

I watched that last night to, It was sick how they put that really big on the newspapers

I was going to watch that.
They jumped out of the building so they wouldnt burn to death.
What must of they been thinking while falling?

Didn't the families not identify the pictures as their own family 'cause its a sin to commit suicide?

They tried to but as you can see there not the exactly easy to recongize who the person is.

It was really bad, like you said that proves it. I'm not sure what i would do. People always ask me what i would do if i was in different situations but i dont know ..

Yeh I see what you mean. I also don't know what i'd do, it depends how bad it was where I was.

[benjirofl]

Yehhh, If it was real bad fire , smoke etc. I probably would. I suppose its spur/sper ?? of the moment thing you decide there and then.

[Polly-alyssa]

I don't know what i would do. I would just depend on where i was and the situation. I would decide on the moment.

I would probably jump as burning/choking, i feel, is a more horrid way to die, more painful. Also jumping, at least you may have 0.1111 chance of surviving

[benjirofl]

Yeh i watched Nights From Hell. And This 16 Year old Kid Fell From a 7 Storie Appartment, and he survived. Pointless to say really as the buildings were enormous. It's so stupid why the disaster occured as well.
I watched this other programme and they could have arrest Bin ladn but didnt as there were too many Children Around - Sorry if affended - Effended ?? aNy1 ,, I reallyy cannot spell

Maybe they thought the firemen were holding a net at the bottom?

I missed the program, people say it was very informative. Is it repeated at all?
