9 P.M. (Discovery Times) THE FALLING MAN At 9:41 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, the photographer Richard Drew captured the image of a man jumping from the upper floors of the north tower of the World Trade Center. The photograph provoked feelings of outrage and anger and became the subject of an article by Tom Junod in the September 2003 issue of Esquire magazine. This documentary, which was broadcast last year on Channel 4 in Britain and on CBC Newsworld in Canada, examines the story behind the picture and the quest to uncover the identity of the man whose final moments were immortalized.
