Almost all of them jumped alone, although eyewitnesses talked of a couple who held hands as they fell. One woman, in a final act of modesty, appeared to be holding down her skirt. Others tried to make parachutes out of curtains or tablecloths, only to have them wrenched from their grip by the force of their descent. The fall was said to take about ten seconds. It would vary according to the body position and how long it took to reach terminal velocity around 125mph in most cases, but if someone fell head down with their body straight, as

“I dont want them forgotten, I want them avenged.
Thoughts similar to the following have crossed my mind many times since 9-11.
I am torn: we are commanded to forgive our enemies, but also to stand against evil.”
This is the great conundrum that Christianity, and The West, faces.
In order to vanquish and eradicate Islam — the sworn enemy of all things free (as we in The West understand “freedom”) — The Christian West will have to resort to violence, even barbarity, that eclipses almost anything humanity has ever known.
Very few openly wish this to happen. But — if The West is to indeed “win” — it MUST happen.
From this reality there can be no escape. Perhaps that is why The West, certainly up to this point, is unwilling to face it. There are some futures so dark that one desires to simply turn away. But — as a well-know lady writer has said, “We can evade reality, but we cannot evade the consequences of reality”.
It was Christianity that made Western Civilization possible.
But could Christianity — the tolerant creed that “turns the other cheek” in an effort to “forgive our enemies” — also become the force that stays our hand and causes the loss of that very civilization?
Just wonderin’....
No one should "try to forget" untill the death cult has been eradicated from existence anywhere on the earth.
The Obama White House is behind a cynical, coldly calculated political effort to erase the meaning of the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks from the American psyche and convert Sept. 11 into a day of leftist celebration and statist idolatry.
Our voices need to be heard not only at Town Hall sessions or Tea Party demonstrations but in the very halls of Congress. We have to speak out to stop the desecration of September 11th.
NEVER FORGET
"Every 'moderate' Muslim is a potential terrorist. The belief in Islam is like a tank of gasoline. It looks innocuous, until it meets the fire. For a 'moderate' Muslim to become a murderous jihadist, all it takes is a spark of faith.
It is time to put an end to the charade of moderate Islam. There is no such thing as moderate Muslim. Muslims are either jihadists or dormant jihadists moderate, they are not."

NEVER FORGET
Watch this moving video. It is the most viewed of any of the 9/11 videos and is now in the Smithsonian.
Be sure to read (at the site) Anatomy Of The Attack and the moving essay,That Day by Steve Golding, a New Yorker who lived through it.
Don’t worry about it.
I understand.
“The Bible names one sin that is neither pardonable on earth or in Heaven”
Which one is it?

Satan worship?
I can usually hold it together while they replay the 9/11 images but when I see these I always cry.What a horrid choice one had to make either burn or jump.All they did was show up for work.....
A tasteful remembrance, only shown once on TV to my knowledge.
Not all Americans are crass self-destructive vermin like the liberals.

There is no doubt about that...NOT ONLY does he pay them way too much lip service to be otherwise, he proves it is a fact through extensive appeasement and action.
Unlike many posters on this thread, I will be re-watching the movies "World Trade Center", "United 93", and "Path to 9-11". No one should want to forget about the last DUmocrat jackass appeasers that brought the tradegy to our shores nor fail to imagine what mullah DUh-bama's syncophants will bring in the near future. If anyone hasn't read Brad Thor's "Full Black", they should.
nathan, *PING* to Post #161 this thread...

“Which one is it?”

It’s one of the darkest moments in our history no one wants to contemplate. But forgotten? No way in hell. We will never forget.
They, and all the rest who died that day, shall remain in my thoughts, and in my prayers, as long as I shall live. I pray for the day we nuke all them SOBs in Mecca. So they, nor any of their ilk, can ever repeat this again.
Get these slime out of our nation. No good can come from them being here. All they want is to rule this nation.
