A moment of remembrance

People were jumping from the Towers.
I don't think anything struck me quite as much as those particular images, 9 years ago. The roughly 200 people who went to work on the morning on 9/11/01 and ended up jumping from the Towers were, in all likelihood, not suicidal.
But they were jumping from the Towers to certain death, because it was either that, or being crushed to death by tons and tons of melted steel.
So yeah, people were jumping from the Towers.
I don't think those images will ever go away.
