Kim Zaring Kenneth Smith English 1101 (crn 80128) Research Paper 13 November 2010 Devastation It was a normal morning on September 11, 2001, when the United States had a horrific attack that took place on our soil for just the third time in our history. There were four planes that had been hijacked, and these planes where being operated by terrorists. Two of the planes were flown directly into the two towers of the World Trade Centers that was located in New York City. The first plane hit the north tower of the World Trade Center around 8:46 A.M. (911 timeline). The second plane hit the South tower of the World Trade Center around 9:02 A.M. (911 timeline).
More than 90% of the workers and visitors who died in the towers had been at or above the point where the plane was hit. In the North Tower 1,355 people at or above the point where the plane hit were trapped and died of smoke inhalation, fell or jumped from the tower to escape the smoke and flames, or were killed in the building's eventual collapse. The destruction of all three staircases in the tower when Flight 11 hit made it impossible for
At the Seattle-Tacoma Airport, in Tacoma, Washington, he released thirty-six passengers and two crew members once his demands were met (Pasternak). After taking off again Cooper ordered the plane to fly at a low altitude towards Mexico. At 8:13pm pressure gauges recorded his jump over the Lewis River from 10,000ft into a thunderstorm with over a hundred mile per hour winds and negative temperatures wearing only a thin suit, wrap-around sunglasses, and a rain coat (Brad Meltzer's Decoded). Many people believe that this was a suicidal jump and that Cooper died that night (Mysterious Disappearances in U.S. History). A reporting error in this high interest case mixed up his name forever immortalizing him as D.B.
Days later, when the shuttle attempted reentry, the breach allowed heat into the wing, which caused destruction of the craft. All the astronauts aboard the Columbia were killed. What were the lessons that NASA failed to learn between the two shuttle disasters? What changes that NASA implemented after the Challenger
No one came in advance despite the fact he left a note as well. 2. The characters we meet in the opening scene are Mr. Smith. We see that he is going through some mental issues because he tries to fly off the top of Mercy Hospital. Unsurprisingly, he falls to his death because he is not able to fly.
This instance is quietly the same with Marie Rossi’s case, Lt. Kara Hultgreen- the first woman flied F-14 fighter died in October 1994 because of loss of control when she crashed into the sea. In this point, the idea is not strong enough because it is much more about the individual, not collective. In fact, every people are stressed at wars, so the way he gave examples and idea is not convincing for the women
After a few minutes of watching the same clip, I suddenly saw another plane crashing into the twin of the other building. I couldn’t believe it, I looked at my family and all you could see was the sorrow and angst in their faces as they sat with there mouths dropped open. As the cameras zoomed in on the masses of people covered with a grey ash, you could see in the background smoke swarming the air and then the first tower went tumbling down. That’s when it really hit me that our country was under attack. Since I was so young I didn’t really know that there were more planes than the two that had hit the Trade Center.
Facts: Client suffered serious injuries at work when she fell thirty feet off a conveyor designed to carry employees from one work level to another. She was injured when the conveyor malfunctioned and failed to stop when she reached the top of the lift. The conveyor had been in use for twenty-five years, and her employer replaced it the day after the accident. The employer dismantled the conveyor and disposed of many of the important parts. It appears that the employer intentionally disposed of the parts.
They had turned on us and waited on top of a ridge that’s when everything went black. When I woke up there was nobody alive. I was the only one left. March 19 1976 I was flown back to the states in a C130. On our way there we hit a little snag.
According to Lee Ann Obringer,” The area may have been named after its Bermuda apex since Bermuda was once known as the “Isle of Devils.” A mysterious and unsettling image in which ships and aircraft have disappeared under supposedly mysterious circumstances that scientists attribute to weather and currents. The most famous Bermuda Triangle story is the mystery surroundings Flight 19. A flight crew took off from base in Florida, which they thought was a regular routine training. All 5 planes had performed the practice bombing run without a hitch. As they were flying back to base, the Pilots had suddenly reported that their equipment was going crazy.
