The 'Falling Man' is one of the most haunting images from 9/11. He was one of the victims who, in the face of the horror of the burning Twin Towers, chose to jump rather than face the certain death by fire. It represents the extreme desperation that people faced that day. It's a tragic reminder of the inhumane conditions within the towers at that time.
One important aspect is the sheer desperation. People were faced with a choice between two awful fates - burning to death or jumping. The 'Falling Man' represents this extreme situation.
I'm not entirely sure without more context, but perhaps he is an everyman figure. A symbol representing anyone who is in a downward spiral, either physically or metaphorically.
No. Falling from 62 stories means a huge distance and a very high speed upon impact. Our bodies are not built to withstand such a violent impact, so survival is almost impossible.
It's very unlikely but possible. There have been some rare cases of people surviving falls from great heights due to factors like landing on something that cushioned the fall.
We don't know exactly who the '9 11 Falling Man' was. There were thousands of people in the Twin Towers that day. He could have been an office worker, a visitor, or someone else. What we do know is that he was a victim of the tragic events of 9/11. His image has become a powerful symbol of the horror that took place, even though his individual identity remains a mystery.
Well, when a 170 lb man falls 106 stories, the force of gravity will accelerate him at about 9.8 m/s². As he falls, his speed will keep increasing. By the time he reaches the ground, the impact will be tremendous. His bones will likely shatter, and internal organs will be severely damaged, almost certainly resulting in death. Also, air resistance might have a minimal effect given the great height, not enough to prevent the deadly outcome.
Rescue of a naked man who has fallen 4 stories should be done carefully. Immediately call 911 or the local emergency number. While waiting for the ambulance, if you are trained in first aid, you can check for breathing and pulse but do not move the victim unless it is absolutely necessary to prevent further injury. When the paramedics arrive, they will use appropriate equipment like a stretcher and backboard to transport him to the hospital safely. In the hospital, doctors will assess his injuries through X - rays, CT scans etc. and start treatment based on the diagnosis.
