A disposable camera was found on the body of one of the 9/11 jumpers

no, I wouldn't.

I would.

yes of course, it's history.

Yes definitely. Wonder how it survived

I would regret it, but I would as well.

"lost the pictures" mmmm, yeah sure Jan.

FBI, such useless cunts.

...7....days....

They actually recover one of the picture.

Link, op?

Sorry about forgetting the link to the podcast.

I call bullshit. Ridiculous on every level.

Go to around 13:15 if anyone wants to get to when he talks about it.

I tried listening to that podcast yesterday. I listened to the first 3 episodes. I found it amateurish and a lot of filler.

Bones were reduced to the consistency of jello. Idk how this would be possible.

Are the FBI guy and NPR reporter lying? Neither one of them made a big deal out of this.

All sorts of things were found, including Atta's passport lying pristinely atop a pile of rubble (*snicker*). This guy's dads's lower half was found, with his wallet and everything intact. He had probably been in the stairwells walking down.

They later found his other parts, identified by dental records. Ugh, what a job- sifting through tons of gory debris.

This is the NPR reporter:

"Laura Sullivan (born about 1974) is a correspondent and investigative reporter for National Public Radio (NPR).[1] She covers crime, punishment and prisons for Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and other NPR programs. Sullivan's work specializes in shedding light on some of the country's most disadvantaged people. She is one of NPR's most decorated journalists, with three Peabody Awards two Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Awards, and more than a dozen other prestigious national awards."

per wikipedia

I do not think she is lying.

Amazing that when the building collapsed on the jumper’s body, the disposable camera stayed intact enough so the pictures could be developed. Should have made the whole building of this super strong camera plastic!

According to one of the people who has seen the phonies, they are not dramatic.

R18- I did not mean to imply it isn't true, just how inexplicable the impact on the bodies and various personal items were. Idk why that is, is what I meant.

It all depends how the guy landed...it's possible that thing survived.

was it found on his body? maybe it fell out of his clothes and landed on grass or soft surface? who knows?

Where are the photos?

Oh, please. It’ll probably be nothing more than photos of them posing with their spouse.

[quote] Some of them were taken that morning after the terrorist attack of what happened on one of the top floors.

I’m sure the photos show Bush and Cheney flying the plane into the building.

That gives this story credence to me, R20.

It's somewhat mind boggling that the FBI would lose both the pictures and the negatives (remember those?)

For those who think this is bullshit, why are the agent and reporter lying? The reporter mentioned it in her article and apparently never talked about it again until she was interviewed by the podcaster.

For those who think this bullshit is true, why is this not documented in any reputable news source?

Again:

"Laura Sullivan (born about 1974) is a correspondent and investigative reporter for National Public Radio (NPR).[1] She covers crime, punishment and prisons for Morning Edition, All Things Considered, and other NPR programs. Sullivan's work specializes in shedding light on some of the country's most disadvantaged people. She is one of NPR's most decorated journalists, with three Peabody Awards two Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Awards, and more than a dozen other prestigious national awards."

Because there’s no history of people making things up out of whole cloth, right, R29?!

[quote]For those who think this bullshit is true, why is this not documented in any reputable news source?

Because, you total dipshit, any reputable news source would only validate their story by seeing the actual photos. Which are not available?

Are you fucking stupid?

And actually, it is documented in the Baltimore Sun.

LOL...poor old R33 has her panties in a twist now; thoughts and prayers she doesn't have an aneurysm.

But back to the subject, if "any reputable news source would only validate their story" then why haven't they?

Fox News has never said anything about this so I do not believe it!

Eerie tour of the WTC a year before... well, you know.

Were people still creaming their fucking jeans twenty years after Pearl Harbor? I believe we moved on. That is not to say I didn't experience the shock, horror, disbelief, and anger at what happened (& no, I don't for a minute buy the official story). It's just that I don't seem to obsess about it the way others here do.

That story about the disposable camera is an odd one, especially the mention in the 2003 article that the podcast quotes of photos of other jumpers. So what, the guy took photos from within the towers of people as they jumped out?? That’s nuts if those photos did/do actually exist.

Sounds like bullshit. The ID of one of the perps was found in pristine condition. Whatever bitch.

Who cares. Is someone just trying to drive traffic to this podcast? Which sucks.

I heard that episode earlier today too and I'm still haunted by the fact that there was such an artifact. I'd look at the photos, if only to understand the reporter's impressions of them. She mentioned that they were pretty dull and unremarkable -- but then she also says there were images of the jumpers. Was he taking them? Were they in the background? Either way, that sounds pretty remarkable to me...

And she makes this observation in her original article, "The man looks stricken, his face one of shock and disbelief." Was he taking a selfie or something? I'm just curious about the chronology of events here.

I normally don’t partake in the 9/11 grief but this year hit me differently for some reason. Its weirdly lingering around for me. Maybe I am just depressed.

R43 You’re not alone. Normally I don’t engage in grief porn either especially when it comes to 9/11.

But I’m thinking the evolving crisis we’re dealing with right now could be the case with untimely deaths being the culprit.

Berry Berenson's ring was found in the rubble. How could steel melt from that extreme heat yet a ring stayed intact?

Just think of it: Every 10 years marks a new national tragedy out of America.

2001=9/11

2009=Wall Street collapse

2020=COVID

Oh also…we are about to experience another real estate crash(I.e. another Wall St. crash). I wonder if Obama-lite would also choose to bail out Goldman Sachs instead of us peasants?

I’ve been waiting a week to post this with the tie into this thread.

[quote]R45 Berry Berenson's ring was found in the rubble. How could steel melt from that extreme heat yet a ring stayed intact?

She was fingering herself (or a seat-mate?) on impact?

R47 maudlin. Nobody wants that pic back.

R45: I’m all for questioning what we’re ‘officially’ told about anything (including 9/11) but surely there’s tonnes of explanations for how her ring survived while other things melted entirely. It could have been thrown clear of the buildings on impact (wasn’t an engine or wheel found on a roof blocks away or wedged between two buildings years later?). Or she ended up in a part of the plane/building where the fire wasn’t burning quite so bad.

Not that it was World Trade Center, but I was living in Southern California right after 9/11 and there was a prominent jewelry and watch restorer in El Segundo who worked on restoring items from passengers who were on a flight 93. Because there were so little human remains for someone of them, all they got to confirm and remind them of their loved ones were restored watches, rings or other jewelry.

Why should the FBI make the photos available to the person who makes this podcast? The family of the guy who took the photos doesn't even want to see them, so why should this podcaster be allowed to exploit them?

The fbi “lost” the pictures? Doubtful. They are archived, never to be seen by the public.

Because that very camera also has the photos of the Kennedy assassinations on it!!
