[Nicholas II of Russia]

"Eyes of Hate". A well known photo of Joseph Goebbels.

Mr Eisenstaedt, who was a photographer for TIME magazine at the time, said: "I found him sitting alone at a folding table on the lawn of the hotel. I photographed him from a distance without him being aware of it."

He took a photo of him, and at first, he seemed very happy, almost in a jovial mood.



But it didn't take too long until some of his bodyguards approached to him and being informed that Alfred, the photographer, was jewish. The sudden change on his face says it all.

'He looked at me with hateful eyes and waited for me to wither. But I didn’t wither.

'If I have a camera in my hand, I don’t know fear.' - Alfred Eisenstaedt.

a man falling down from one of the two towers while another man is trying to climb down.
Around 200 people died from jumping/falling from WTC.
1344 people were above the impact site of the north tower and they were unable to escape as all the stairs were destroyed.

The saddest thing about the climber: If he had been a row over, he would have possibly made it. There was a broken window below the impact zone to the right of the column he was climbing down. Dude made it like 20 floors down and was only knocked off when the South Tower fell and caused the North Tower to sway.

by 1960 thanks to the emergence of rock and roll and her own personal demons she would be all but forgotten.
