Like "The Falling Man" on 9/11:

His identity has not been confirmed, though many have speculated over the last 4 1/2 years. Tom Junod wrote an extraordinary piece for Eqsuire in September 2003 on "The Falling Man," offering several possibilities. His piece ended with this one:
Jonathan Briley worked at Windows on the World. Some of his coworkers, when they saw Richard Drew's photographs, thought he might be the Falling Man. He was a light-skinned black man. He was over six five. He was forty-three. He had a mustache and a goatee and close-cropped hair. He had a wife named Hillary. Today, the Mirror of London follows up (hat tip: Rusty at The Jawa Report):Channel 4 in Britain will air a documentary on The Falling Man tomorrow.
Here are a few photos from Jonathan Briley's tribute website: Never, never forget.
