Time

Area: New York

The photo, taken by Richard Drew in the moments after the September 11, 2001, attacks, is one man"s distinct escape from the collapsing buildings, a symbol of individuality against the backdrop of faceless skyscrapers. On a day of mass tragedy, Falling Man is one of the only widely seen pictures that shows someone dying.
