YOOO!!!!Some of you seem surprised.
After this photo was published in 1994, I realised we live in a sad world...
View media item 157437for those who may not get it, instead of the photographer helping that little girl, he waited and took this image smh
Reading what he said and thinking about it, I think it's likely that there's little to nothing the photographer could've done to save the guy/
BUT...a few things just sound sketchy and sensationalized:
At the same time, the perp was running toward me. I was afraid he might push me onto the tracks.
So he just happened to tell a woman to give him his last rites and it turns out she was the MTA chaplain?I remember telling a woman — whom I later learned was the MTA chaplain — to give the man his last rites.
Probably in other pictures and in the main one it was probably too late but it looks to me like there was nobody between the photographer and the victim at that point. NY Post's editing?The sad part is, there were people who were close to the victim, who watched and didn’t do anything. You can see it in the pictures.
I don't think he's really at fault but I just got a vibe like he was overcompensting and exaggerating.
aint ksteezy a photographer... lol thats why he poppin' off
News to me, but still... I'm saying, ksteezy wasn't there. Calling this man a douche bag is unwarranted. In the heat of the moment, some people ca't just snap into heroic mode and do the right thing.
To vilify the photographer for that is harsh. That's all I'm saying.
If anything, get mad at The Post for sensationalizing a tragic situation, as some on here have said.
He said that he was flashing his light at the train to signal the train to stop. Everyone knows that trains can't stop suddenly and that the conductor is not going to pay attention to a bunch of flashing lights.
I blame social media. Too many accounts of people not helping, but pulling out their cell phones. If someone's in danger call the police, or help. Taking pics/videos won't help anybody.
In the heat of the moment, people become heroes or freeze, my dudes instinct was to photograph the man's death....he can say he was randomly posting till the cows come home or that he didn't have time to set the camera, let me let you in on something, he said, his camera was set to outside settings, which meant he probably was shooting Manual outside, had he not change his manual settings this picture would have came out much different, what he did was pop his camera in auto and snapped, knowing damb well the camera and flash will give him a good enough picture, this dude knew exactly why he was doing and his intent wasn't to help dude, but to capitalize on a photo, he's a photo journalist, it's obvious....had his intentions been different how this end up on the front page of the post?
Easier said than done, we dont know the circumstances.So why didn't the picture man try to help the dude up?
Capitalize? Nobody is going to capitalize off of this [except for The Post, which is disgraceful]. Now dude has people like you questioning his humanity. I'm sure if you were to have a conversation with the man, you would note his guilt and sorrow, not dollar signs in his eyes. You're poppin' off like dude was scheming cold-heartedly from this stranger's demise.
I agree with you man, it's sad he didn't do more. But he deserves to live after this too.
