9/11 and that fireman

[Golfer18--old]

Anyone remember when the fireman was on the 80 something floor and the building collapsed and he fell with the rubble and lived?

 

[distanced]

yeah, why

if you think about it, it isn't all that odd.
there was more below him than above him (less chance of getting crushed, though still would have been very likely that he would have) and because of the amount of stories below him, it would have slowed the rate of decent. Especially as his lefel reached the ground.

merely a sad hoax. I live in NYC and with 3 major newpapers and it not making the front page...nuff said.

there was also a picture of a man standing on top of the WTC and a plane about 400 meters coming right at the camera. supposedly the camera survived and the pic was quickly developed or downloaded to a PC and distributed all over the net. Perhaps it was him?

 

[HumorMe]

Like Lewd said, I think that was determined to be a hoax.

 

[Golfer18--old]

Lewd is just talking shit because he knows it happened and I will prove him wrong as always. peace.

All those stories of people "riding the rubble" down during the collapses are bullshit.

 

[WODIN]

Bullshit stories like this abound.

Hey Golfer,

I was in an elevator at the top of a 60 story building in New York. The cable snapped, and I was the only one with the presence of mind to jump when the elevator hit the bottom of the building. I was the only one who survived.

 

[bigguns7]

doesn't work that way, when you're falling, you're already traveling as fast as the elevator, so no matter what you're gonna hit very hard and get flattened

Oh yeah, well then what about the firefighter who rode the mountain of rubble down 80 stories without a scratch? I don't see why you couldn't do the same in an elevator.
