Yup, every year around this time. People are once again searching for 9/11 pictures of people jumping from the Twin Towers before those towers collapsed. The Internet seems divided into two types of people: those who want to see those 9/11 photos or videos of people jumping to their deaths, and those who think the fascination with that stuff is morbid and creepy. You're probably thinking about the falling man right now. That photo was taken by Richard Drew on Sept 11, 2001, and it depicts an unidentified man falling to his death as the office behind him burns. Scary stuff, dude.

That video footage of people jumping to their deaths from the World Trade Center was actually shown on Telemundo during the events of September 11, but no other news channels that I watched would show it. Not sure if non-American news channels carried it. You can see video of people falling in this kid's school project. It's got all of the lurid video you could want, but it's also important to see at least once, otherwise all the memorials and bell-ringing become disconnected from real life, and what really happened.

People also want to hear the 911 calls from 9/11, audio files of which are all over the Internet.

Fascinating or creepy? I'm gonna roll with "creepy", mainly because I saw it on TV the first time, and that was enough for me, kthanksbye.
