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.

It kinda disgust me to see that someone would argue that any photo taken on 9/11, especially of victims are more or less significant than one another. How dare you say the man falling by himself is not as significant as the picture above. Innocent people lost their fucking lives and we have people who want to debate the popularity of photos from a tragic day. I do agree, the above photo is simply beautiful and could very much show how, “people need a helping hand in their final moments”, but I hate when I’m on tumblr and I see people try to twist, manipulate, and poorly word things just to craft a “beautiful story.” Just like we don’t know the story behind that couple, we don’t know the story behind the man that jumped alone. Let it be and my goodness stop looking at things from one perspective.

omg for the last boody time i did NOT wirte this comment! i deleted the source of the comment & will poeple please stop sending me the stories of this couple OK, the sotry changed everytime i hear it…
