Sorry about the recent photos I posted. I really forgot that kids come on here and it was stupid of me.
Don't worry mate, that's the point of the thread, to have emotionally charged pictures. Any of these could be found on google.<br /><br />-- Tue Jul 27, 2010 10:02 am --<br /><br />

Anybody know who this is?


Franklin Roosevelt? That's just because he's in a wheel chair, and I know it's definitely not Brian Potter.

Im probably wrong here but isnt that little girl of some importance to that pic
 
Yes its Franklin D Roosevelt, not sure about what the girl is. But the suignificance is that this is one of the very few pictures of him in a wheelchair, as America at the time was discriminative towards disabled people, therefore he would not have been elected president if they knew he was disabled.

Christ wet! I seen this has news on telly when it happen! I didn't know anyone died! I had a tear and a sick feeling watch this:

You know how traumatised the pilot is by the fact that he is folding his parachute, like his mind has shut off what has just happened
 
I don't think these have been posted yet.

My favourite photo ever, i think he's the first person to escape by crossing the Berlin 'wall'. Wonder what happened to him afterwards.

he was so close, he was actually on the wall but was shot and fell backwards. They left him to bleed to death and he died an hour later.

One of the many victims of the Armenian Genocide, considered the first modern genocide and is forgotten by a lot of people. The Turkish government still deny it ever happened and the US has only just classes it as a genocide.
