the Falling Man

In honor of the 10th anniversary of 9/11, I am posting this documentary. The original version was posted by fofo69 long, long ago. Although you can still find it on there, I have edited and polished it and posted it here for the 10th anniversary. The story is about Jonathan Briley, the Falling Man. He was one of the hundreds who were forced to jump to their deaths rather than die of asphyxiation. Rest in peace, Jonathan. Your death has been avenged!

wow, there are some really sick people on this site. "hairysista" - I don't know whether to feel sorry for you or to despise you. But I wonder if you would say these hateful things face-to-face to the families of those who died on that day. I seriously doubt it.

@hairsista - seems to be you wouldn't be trolling 9 11 sites if you are so concerned about propaganda. Everyone is entitled to their opinion. I just have a hard time sympathizing with yours when you are so apparently subjecting yourself to that which you despise. Go read a book, volunteer for a charity, or something else more worthy of your time - go spread some good instead of spewing hate and violence. So sad...

@bnvn1, Amen. I agree with you completely.

This is one of the most haunting documentaries I have ever watched. It took a unique perspective and a compassionate heart to undertake this investigation. God bless the reporter who insisted on pursuing the falling man and his doomed colleagues, I think about their story often.

I like the video because it tells a story that was not shown by the main stream media. It tells a story that needs to be told of the horror of that day. I don't like what happened that day but I give a big thumbs up to the producers of this video for telling this story.

I dont know if i should like or dislike this video :S

I dont think i liked that day... ¬¬

[hairysista]

I wonder if Osama sat in his home watching this and actually thought he did something good, if so I can't even imagine what's wrong with him how could you even like I can't even.. my father died during this, he told us(my family) he was gonna jump and it was the saddest moment of my life I just can't believe what he did to deserve this

@chaddy19 just look at "Sverigedemokraternas valfilm 2010"

[hairysista]

@chaddy19 it means I put alot of efford against the regime of the USA :) I know I could be a bit more empirical but I have found that this kind of argument often gets you no where when talking to americans onnline ;) then rather have them rage and QQ. I dont care that people from all over the world have died. They were working for America and therefore a foe :) Oh I have heard plenty of shit from SverigeDemokraterna, so please STFU when talking about things you dont know shit about :)

@hairysista Actually, I don't need to got on a diet. I'm 5'4 and weight 110 pounds. I have a 4.6 GPA in high school, and I'm an athiest. So everything that you just said is bullshit. Just leave it alone, no one likes you.

And BTW, your profile name makes you sound really classy
