RAIN'S THURSDAY ART...BERRIES by eaghl
DID YOU KNOW...
 |
| The viral story of a woman jumping off Eiffel Tower, landing on a car, surviving and marrying the car’s owner is partially true. The whole story does not corroborate with factual proof. |

Only partially true? What, she didn't survive?
ReplyDeleteHmmm, to summer - and love!
ReplyDeleteLovely berries and a great fact! Your link to Rain doesn't link back to you.
ReplyDeleteThanks I am trying to correct.
DeleteI'm guessing the untrue part is the jumping from the tower, because I don't see how anyone would survive that.
ReplyDeleteDo you know if the couple are still married?
ReplyDeleteNice depiction of cherries, down to the shine.
ReplyDeleteI looked up the story. Christiane Coquentin survived her December 22, 1964 suicide attempt because she landed on a car and suffered only a broken leg. There's no evidence anywhere she ever met the car's owner or married him, thus it's only partly true.
At least she survived the jump!As many people have said to me over my life, it wasn't her time!
ReplyDeleteHave a great week!
