woman on the edge

What happened to you? When I zoom in, I can see you standing there holding on the the ruins of the building. I wonder how you survived that far, how you were able to dodge the impact and make it to the edge of the world. Did you get down? Did you jump? Did you realize your fate as you stood there looking down those 80 stories? You will haunt my thoughts forever.

Query

After seeing a TV programme about Here is New York when this photo in particular was pointed out, I have been haunted by thoughts of the poor girl in this photo. Does anyone know who she was, or anything about her?

Me too...

The same thing happened to me when I saw this picture on television last night and I had to find this picture for myself and look at it again.

is she alive??????

I'm in California and wish to know if possible, is she still alive??????????? Do we know who she is standing there looking out? I think I'm going to cry seeing this one. But yet I'm so glad to see this at the same time. Does that make sense? Does any of this make sense? God Bless You All
