Interesting
ReplyDeleteNot only interesting but shocking. I always heard differently.
DeleteI didn't know this. Funny how a lie can become truth.
ReplyDeleteHave a fabulous day. ♥
I always pictured dozens of men jumping out of buildings.
DeleteI didn't know that either, but the crash was terrible.
ReplyDeleteYes the crash was terrible and changes my parents lives as they learned to live through the great depression.
DeleteInteresting and I'm glad it was no more though 2 was too many. Amazing what filters down through the years as fact.
ReplyDeleteI couldn't believe it was only two persons after years of hearing otherwise. Sad for the two.
DeleteThey sure made sound like a bunch people was killing them self that day.
ReplyDeleteCoffee is on and stay safe
Always thanks for the "stay safe" comment.
DeleteWell, there you go! False news was around way back then, too!!
ReplyDeleteIsn't that crazy. Guess we need to explore our history better.
DeleteWhy do they never teach us history correctly?
ReplyDeleteMaybe they did but I never listened very well in history class.
DeleteYears ago, i read about both of them. Tragic cases. There is so much history, you can never learn it all, and you have to fact check over and over and read original sources and there's just not enough time to learn it all.
ReplyDeleteNow I must go and read about them too.
DeleteAnd maybe those two weren't caused by the crash, but something else wrong in their lives.
ReplyDeleteYes, who knows what caused those two to jump.
DeleteI was very surprised to learn that.
