Five Firefighters found alive Amazing. 48 hours after the collapse. "Five firefighters were found alive in New York on Thursday, trapped in an SUV buried in rubble from the World Trade Center. Two of the firefighters were able to leave the vehicle unassisted; all five were transported to the hospital."
Thank god. I heard something about the jump as well, but haven't found a link. Anyone?

jenna:
they were discussing that on nbc yesterday. i think that they said the man was on the 83rd floor, and that he'd rolled himself into a ball and just hit floor to floor to floor as the whole thing collapsed. he hadn't actually fallen more than a floor at a time, which explains why he could possibly still be with us today. i haven't been able to find a link to a news story, though. (news.yahoo.com is showing some garbage every time i go to it...)

I heard people in the office talking about a person rescued (yesterday?) who fell from the 80th floor. Anyone heard something similar? A link?
Also...conflicting reports about the PA black box. Any evidence it was actually found?
