<Check this one out...>
That sure beats the tabloid picture of Satan in the smoke! I see in the posted picture, what I couldn't see in the copy of a copy, that the light on the aircraft is wrong too. Several of my fellow teachers mentioned the skyline, clothing, and ESPECIALLY the railing. I don't think there were contrails off the video shots of the planes. (Cleaner engines and warm air?) One might guess the person taking the picture was concentrating on the subject, not a quickly oncoming plane that they hadn't noticed, but why is the subject in the far right....allowing room for the plane to show up? Just wanted some skyline for effect? Not to mention the camera survives the collapse of the building without the opening the case and exposing the film? No media coverage? I agree folks...fake, fake, fake. Don

I was at the WTC a long time ago. The observation deck railing is a long way from the edge of the building. Heck it has to be at least fifty from the edge and it is elevated about 20 feet above the roof. There is an electric fence beteen the deck and the edge. The photo looks fake to me. The plane looks way to high. The plane is way too big and looks like it is going to hit too high up on the building.
I really love the pencil art work. It is a beautiful picture and a most wonderful thought. I will think about often. |

Just the facts, sir
There is a very thorough debunking of the first picture at Snopes:
www.snopes.com along with the 'truth' about many of the other urban legends and hoaxes that are unfortunately inevitable after something like this happens. I highly recommend that site for all you skeptics (like me) out there. If it sounds, or looks, too amazing to be true...then it probably is They are very thorough in their research and documentation, it is a really good site. Hey, maybe they have some more info on the new SVX...

Rufus,
I saw a drawing of the observation walkway in a magazine just before I clicked on that site you posted. The railing was legit, but on the wrong building for the plane that was coming out of the north, and the plane was the wrong type too. Great site; I've bookmarked it for future reference. By the way, did I miss seeing whether or not you were coming to Canaan? I noted that you were considering coming awhile back.... Don

Wondering about the roof
P.S. That site also mentioned the observation deck was not yet open to the public at the time of the attack.
But was there no way to open access to the roof for those trapped ABOVE where the plane entered the building? I saw several Police and Television helicopters flying around, but there was no one on either roof seeking removal. Has anyone heard anything about this during all the coverage? (Imagine the spot the chopper pilot would be in if the had room for 4 or 5 and the roof was packed with hundreds desperate for escape....it would be like the Titanic lifeboats going back into all the people in the water....it would be swamped. Wasn't there a scene in "the Towering Inferno" similar to that? I think a helicopter crashed on the roof in the movie.) Even if the roof access was locked, you would think someone nearby would have the key.....unless....oh the horror of it....the door was high security to keep terrorists from landing on the roof and entering the building from above, and those with keys or codes were trapped BELOW where the plane entered. Don
