this photograph intrigues me so much! why isn’t this the most famous photo from 9/11 instead of the falling man? isn’t 2 people holding hands after jumping more significant than 1 man? it makes me wonder what the story is behind this photo, were they friends or lovers? or just strangers who were too scared to jump alone? it shows that people need a helping hand even in their final moments, i love it.
Fucking reblog today; tomorrow. Any day I see it on my dash. Beautiful. I for one think they were strangers. Sometimes it’s easier to care for a stranger, how else would they have found the courage to not only jump, but to look into someone’s eyes and jump. I don’t think I could have done that if I knew the person well.
This is amazing. Maybe held hands, looked at the other and counted to 3. Then jumped.
I think is was a married couple because I read a post that was connected to this photo and it was a kid who said both his parents worked in the towers and were able to find each other and jump together and holding hands.
ill always reblog 9/11 stuff
