Originally posted by Xavier Moriarty lol, facts.

Yes, facts. Where are they? All we know is:

- Someone named Christine drove past some intersection and saw an elderly man apparently "in distress"
- She also saw at least one businessman walked around him, and a few other bystanders who may not even have had enough time to notice, especially considering that it was dark
- She called 911, paramedics arrived, it was too late, he died of a heart attack

And this symbolizes that humanity has lost its way, that the end of the world is nigh? Please.

Alternative account of the photograph
South African photojournalist Joao Silva, who accompanied Carter to Sudan, gave a different version of events in an interview with Japanese journalist and writer Akio Fujiwara that was published in Fujiwara's book The Boy who Became a Postcard (�}�~���ˤ��줿���� - Ehagaki ni sareta sh�_nen).

According to Silva, they (Carter and Silva) went to Sudan with the United Nations aboard Operation Lifeline Sudan and landed in Southern Sudan on March 11, 1993. The UN told them that they would take off again in 30 minutes (the time necessary to distribute food), so they ran around looking to take shots. The UN started to distribute corn and the women of the village came out of their wooden huts to meet the plane. Silva went looking for guerrilla fighters, while Carter strayed no more than a few dozen feet from the plane.

Again according to Silva, Carter was quite shocked as it was the first time that he had seen a famine situation and so he took many shots of the children suffering from famine. Silva also started to take photos of children on the ground as if crying, which were not published. The parents of the children were busy taking food from the plane so they had left their children only briefly while they collected the food. This was the situation for the girl in the photo taken by Carter. A vulture landed behind the girl. To get the two in focus, Carter approached the scene very slowly so as not to scare the vulture away and took a photo from approximately 10 metres. He took a few more photos and then the vulture flew off.

also :

The sound of soft, high-pitched whimpering near the village of Ayod attracted Carter to an emaciated Sudanese toddler. The girl had stopped to rest while struggling to a feeding center, whereupon a vulture had landed nearby. He said that he waited about 20 minutes, hoping that the vulture would spread its wings. It didn't. Carter snapped the haunting photograph and chased the vulture away.

with my loved ones and family.



all good suggestions here
but i don't see enough of my family and I wouldn't be anywhere else.

the article story is messed but hey, welcome to the city where some are selfish ignorant pricks too busy listening to their iPods or texting on their BBs to pay attention around them.

My last 30 minutes I'd be spending with my loved one(s) reliving good memories.

glad I wans't the only one!

i'd prob see my parents quickly, give them a high-five and tell them i love 'em.
then, i'd get really high and have the longest orgasm of my life.
i figured, i'm already going to hell, so i might as well make my last living moments memorable and worthwhile... call me crazy or insensitive, but that's just me.

My cousin was talking about this the other day.

Then she stated that when she fell off her bike in the summer at least 5 people stopped and offered help.

Either way, pretty pathetic that so many people neglected him.
