If you were in the towers at 9/11, would you jump or burn? Why?

Jump

Burn

Jumping would be more like skydiving… wo the shute, I guess…. I don’t think anyone could willingly just stand still and burn — it’s why “burning at the stake” involved tying and sometimes gagging the person being burned…. Shawarma just isn’t a dish I’m willing to be.

People jump because no one willingly allow themselves to burn. Few people died from fires which were localized. Most died during the controlled demolition. And, to keep the body count up, people attempting to leave were prevented from leaving.

There was a famous tower fire in the UK a few years ago, and the authorities told them to stay inside. Of course, they got burnt alive, suffocated, whatever.

The most stupid thing you can do. Trusting any authority.

[DishLady]

Agreed.

I don't know that this is even a choice. When you can't breathe you're going to do what's necessary to breathe.

Thanks for the MHO😎

No point jumping. Be terrifying, long and extremely horrendous.

With burning well... the smoke would knock you unconscious way before then do hopefully you are dead without even being aware...

[DizzyDesii]

I wouldn't jump. If anything maybe stand outside the window and try to walk the ledge… I don't know maybe collapse with the building I don't know

Jump, at least I get a view on the way down before going splat. Plus it would be painless, or at least the pain would only last a second. Compared to burning alive.

Go to the top and surf the roof down.
