Ten years on from Clutha.
I dunno why, but one thing that sticks with me is an observer saying that (dumb as it sounds) they were surprised how much it just *dropped like a stone*. I know what they mean that I 'feel' it should sort of slowly drop or slow down, or glide or something - but I know that's dumb.
They said its direction just absolutely flipped 90 degrees. Down in a millisecond. Must have been gobsmacking to see; like, someone somewhere idly saw 9/11 happen as they watched a plane. 'What the fuck did I just see'. |
