Bubba Cleavus. Flannel shirt? Home video surfacing of him in the back of a pick up truck?

One of the videos posted here shows the explosion coming from the right and a runner crumpling to the ground as if he was hit with shrapnel or something.

That guy that fell looked very old. The sonic blast may have knocked him a little and his legs just buckled.

Absolutely not, leave the picture up! If you are too big of a wimp to look at it, then look at something else. We need to get mad and stay mad until people who do this kind of thing are dealt with.

The JFK library is about 4 miles from downtown Boston.

The JFK library could be just an accident, but it’s a high profile location in a time window with the other explosions (multiple...if there are more than one, the possibility of there being more is heightened).

I’m guessing this wouls prevent setting anything off with a cell? But what if someone needs to call in an emergency?

Look like he got hit by shrapnel.

As other posters have said, if they were using cell phones, they might not have been able to get through to the other devices to set them off.

Could be, but then again I doubt they'd have intended too much time between all the bombs they'd planned to set off. Looks like they'd have had plans to get them all off close together.

All is speculation now.

LEO and first responders are using radio and land lines. Cell traffic is down.

Plus he had just finished running a marathon.
