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...

Breh

I would had fought to survive or die trying. I would made folks go on the other side of the building where there's no fire, make us all use our clothes as a rope, tether down to a window below the broken area of the building, smash through the window, get as many people down with me , and rundown the stairs.

why you gotta get all extra with it?
all the mayhem going on at the time and there you are smashing windows.
trying to tie shyt together and what not...
that's how you get people killed.

I remember watching a doc and I was disgusted by the one family who was acting disgusted that the guy “committed suicide”. I believe it was some Latino family that said it couldn’t be their son because he “committed suicide”.

Like uhh, you wanted the guy to stay there and fukking get burned alive???

 

[skylove4]

nah, i ain't no superhero.
pretty much any adult man could have slid down the tower to safety.
part of me can understand the impulse to jump because the situation
was a little crazy. however...if he had stopped and taken a deep breath
of all them jet fuel fumes, he would have realized that his salvation was
the very thing he was trying to escape. 911 operators aint shyt for not
suggesting this to the countless people they wasted time on the phone
with talking about "stay calm, we coming for you, pee on your clothes..."

fukking clowns.

Yeah I saw the documentary a while ago,I believe he was a chef. Honestly not sure why they went through the lengths to find out who it was. Does his family need to know who it was? Would he want the world to know he made that decision in a vulnerable state? I guess I was nosey to because I watched

Making clothes as a rope? First I’d like to say, if we were trapped up there I would’ve killed you for saying that dumb shyt.

But realistically, they were trapped. The floors below them were on fire and the fire was in the middle of the building.

Elevators didn’t work and the stairs led to the fire. They were forced to be by the windows, that’s the only place without smoke and without fire.

Until the fire was at the windows.

They had two choices. Die by the fire and smoke or jump.

It’s just sad…

Will do

I been listening to the phone calls from the ppl on the floors above and just below the crash.

most had no idea how serious it was at first compared to the outside world who saw the first plane hit.

The later calls after the smoke and fire started reaching them were horrific

i don't know what that gif means so i really can't respond.

Also we forget about the pentagon being hit

and the plane that was headed towards the capital but the passengers revolted and the terrorist crashed it in a field.
