The other day on Glenn Becks TV show he held up a picture of the Mall. He said they have calculated that the Mall can hold 200,000 thousand people and that grassy area on the left next to it can hold another 100,000. We can also see there are people in areas to the far right.
Looks like a few more than tens of thousands. :)
"Million Man" March - 1995 Caption on MSDNC: "A crowd estimated at up to 1 million is seen in this Oct. 16, 1995, aerial file photo..." LOL! |
You are mistaken he stated the grassy area on the left next to it can hold another 300,000!
That is THREE HUNDRED THOUSAND, not including people on the far right. In other photos of the mall there are also a multitude of people on the lawn on the other side of the street from the road at the BOTTOM of this photo. This image has either been cropped or this photo did not catch those people in its frame.
