Foggy Memory: The Empire State Building Tragedy


Listen Later

The Empire State Building is known throughout the world as one of the icons of freedom, democracy, and the culmination of diverse people working together to accomplish something bigger and greater than themselves. It’s a destination for tourists around the world to come visit, it’s a sight to behold for those who’ve never seen it before, and it’s the million dollar view for observers in neighboring apartment buildings and skyscrapers.  Its sheer size creates wonderment, and the speed at which it was built only expounds that amazement.  We know you probably have heard and maybe have seen the Empire State Building, but I bet you’ve never heard of a plane crashing into it in 1945.  Nope, we’re not talking about the horrifying day on 9/11 when 2 planes crashed into the World Trade Centers, we’re talking about a B-25 accidentally crashing into the Empire State Building.  Join us today as we talk about this accident and one of the most unbelievable survival story twists on this episode of the Missing Chapter.
