9/11 jumpers

Why didn't they just take a chair with them and jump off of it before hitting the ground?
Or at least sew their clothes together like parachutes?

i recognize that guy bottom right, thats Randy from trailer park boys

you can actually survive the fall, all skyscrapers are slightly angled and not vertical, this means it's possible to "slide" down the side of one if you can keep sufficient contact with the surface. if you ever find yourself in this situation:

take off your shoes, and put your hands in them like shoe gloves.
break window with desk, lower yourself out of it to the next floor, now this is the scary part, hang down and let go slowly, use your shoe hands to create friction with the surface and your socks to also slow down your fall, you will hit the ground pretty hard but you will survive.

>being burnt alive
>near instant death, also you get to fly for a couple seconds

i'm takin' number 2 famalam

>sewing in an inferno

Not gonna work. Here's why....

Frig off Estonia

Are you mentally disabled?

why do you think like a swede?

Had to be shit tons of networking cable in those buildings. One long-ass rope amirite?

why didn't they just duct tape a wall panel to their back like wings and try to fly into the hudson river like the plane movie?.

You know you would pass out from breathing smoke, before you could die to the fire. I wouldn't jump.

...

hahahahahahhaha

no but seriously they were cowards for not at least trying to run down through the smoke, just hold your breath and keep a hand to the wall and they could have survived, but walking down some stairs in normal conditions is probably too much strife for an american

holy shit, this honestly could have worked...
two layers of cat5 would have been enough to hold one person at a time and the weight of the rest of the rope.
they would have at least been able to break through a window and get to a lower floor with no fire.

Yeah no. Any pressure you put on the wall pushes you away from the wall, and then, no more friction and AAAAAaaaaaahhhhh.......

that's some seriously die hard shit right there
I'm sure every accountant secretly dreams of being john mclane sometimes

a real man does both

They should build deep moats around the edges of these types of buildings just in case, would save tons of lives if it happens again

The jumpers were all from the floors above where the plane hit, Stairwells were compromised. But I guess you're a britbong and you wouldn't know that.

This is true. I've done it

Are you fucking retarded?

i still don't understand why the military didn't call the avengers for help

Maybe. Why ?

yes but gentlemen you're not seeing the bigger picture
all of this, yes, ALL OF THIS, could have been avoided if they'd just built the towers underground!

:^)

...

Jumping from the 80th floor of a skyscraper into water would be worse than hitting concrete

pretty sure you pass out from breathing in that stuff then just die in your sleep. Rather that then jumping.

How can instant death be worse than instant death?

Proof?

I really wish there was some paranoid motherfucker that brought a parachute to the office with him. Would have been one shave dude, base jumping out of a burning building, landing on Broadway and just waltzing home

I was convinced this was a real thing when I was little and would always wonder why people kept dying from plane crashes and fires when they could just do that instead

Not if you added a lot of gelatin to the water, theyd eventually slow down and just suffocate

Not if you break the surface tension first, I always have a handful of pennies in my pocket that I can throw in advance to cause ripples in the water so I can land safely if I have to jump out of a plane and into a moat of something.

NOW I'M FREE

FREE FALLIN'

Why wasnt the strongest military in the world able to stop some arab cave dwellers that hijacked a couple of civilian planes?

Should have had paracord, they might have had a chance.

dude, jet fuel can melt copper wire too :(

Wish the parachute was an isreali flag too, wouldve been glorious

>tfw already been five years since 9/11

Anglo genocide best day of my life

He looks like he's doing a top rope elbow drop

Kek

Why do you think

HAHAHA what am i reading?!

I happen to have a parachute underneath my desk for this very purpose.

Triple doubles?????!

The only way you for keeping constant contact with the side of the building is a very strong wind pushing you against it

...

And make the building smelly?

...

Would that work? I've always thought if I was in a plane crash I'd jump out at the last second, totally horizontally in a hope id skim to the shore like a pebble but your idea sounds better since I could just jump out at the top and not have to time it perfectly

To survive high falls like that you need to maximize your surface area. Ironically, Americans are masters at this, yet none of them knew the technique.

Screenshot'd

Americans are fucking stupid why didn't they just save them with helicopters?

I don't know why the planes were allowed to hit the buildings to begin with. Doesn't the U.N have orbital satillites that can deactivate the atoms?

Lost hard

...

They probably could have slid down the laundry chute, unless it was on fire too. That way they land in a pile of clothes and it doesn't hurt them

How about you wait till the building is kind of leaning to one side just before it falls down and slide down it like that? Simply jump off at the end and run.

Myth busters said that won't work

Trust me my friend, it works. I've a PhD in physics. If you pancake in mid-air to slow yourself down in freefall you can almost land on your feet assuming you have more than WHOOPING 10 VITALITY. Humans can't reach terminal velocity anyway.

this.
they should have flown large military helicopters with ropes and harnesses lowered down to the windows.
a helicopter could have even flown beside the building and thrown parachutes.

You can actually piss on a shirt and wrap your face, could've done that and tried for a run down the stairwell unless it was engulfed not sure if itd help any with carbon monoxide.

Either way these are panic situations, alot of what you know doesn't even cross your mind etc, really there were probably some alternatives but even the most reasonable still have a high likelihood of failure and with all that into account the odds of them living even had they not jumped and tried something different were still relatively low. Too late now either way nigger, they dead.

> in a hope id skim to the shore like a pebble
OMG I'm dead.

sorry my bad
>tfw already 10 years since 9/11

Skyscrapers aren't fucking slides

They could have used rope firing guns to shoot ziplines across to other buildings

...

>tfw 9/11 was 25 years ago

...

people actually escaped by waiting until the towers were in free fall then running out the window when their floor was hitting the ground

they were like really fucking high up dude

I just realised tom cruise has a tooth in the centre of his mouth

put me in the screencap for reddit!! :-)

don't forget to post it on plebbit

hhahahahahahhahahahahahahahha

Yeah good fucking question m8. It gets fishier and fishier every year.

Weird ass scientologist genes

>in a hope id skim to the shore like a pebble

those jumpers didnt jump but were pushed out by jews in the building

Of course its an australian, only i fucking australian could ever possibly post. jesus christ i'am dying

...

...

But have anyone tried this? You can't be sure until you try this.

never stop Straya

No, he's Australian.

delet

I wonder if he was hoping to go through the roof of a White Castle and safely land in a pile of cheeseburgers ?

I work in a 49 story building in Manhattan and have a PD Sabre 2 in a duffel under my desk for this reason. When people ask me what it is, I tell them it's my spare gym bag. I have a hammer in there, full face respirator and welding gloves.

My friends mother used to work with a colleague who escaped like that.

Man's gotta eat

interdasting

mythbusters fired a cannon ball through someones house as well

>PD Sabre 2
>49 stories
you wont even have time to open your parachute.
get 150m of rope instead.

People have survived falls from cruising altitude but of course the angle you hit the ground and what you're landing on makes a big difference.

It's very possible that someone COULD have survived the fall but none of those jumpers received the appropriate medical attention due to the chaos.

...

Because they don't have eyes in every square inch of the world.

That's the problem with 9/11 conspiracy theorists, and indeed most conspiracy theorists, they're labouring under the delusion that the government is all powerful. It scares them to think their government couldn't stop this.

The reality, that the government is a total shambles and had no idea that 9/11 would happen, nor any plan to stop it once it started, is scary to some people. So they make up stupid theories.

Listen to the 9/11 NORAD tapes for example - total chaos. They had no idea what the fuck was going on, or what to do.

Wow, most of them had terrible form.
1/10 score for near all of them.

It's easy to deal with the CO and CO2. Simply fill all your condoms with Oxygen first to avoid being knocked out by condom monoxide.
