The Falling Man

This article made me really think about 9/11 like I hadn't before. To me the picture of the falling man does not offend me, because I like to knowledge myself with what has happened in history, no matter how disturbing. Not everyone looks at life this way. The search for who the falling mad is was not easy and a lot of people were offended by the photo. There are a lot of details about the man that I couldn't tell by looking at him, so I am amazed at how close they got to finding him. I actually don't mind that they couldn't figure out who he was even though it was a close call in the end. I don't mind because like the article showed is that he represents what happened. He represents a soldier in this war. I thought that was very beautiful, and it made me see the whole situation in a new light.
