The ever brilliant Channel 4 have a must-see documentary on this coming Thursday evening at 9pm. The Falling Man is the story of the people who began to fall from the buildings just minutes after the first plane hit. Fall is the key word here…most jumped.

Probably my most abiding memory of 9/11 is one I’ve written about before, listening to Conor O Cleary, the Irish times NY correspondant who was talking live on the radio from his office over-looking the WTC complex, and in the process of his interview, he started to notice people jumping from the building to get away from the terror they were enduring inside.

This program looks like it could be fascinating, and as always with 9/11, harrowing viewing.
