Esquire Puts 9/11 Story Behind Paywall to Raise Money for James Foley Scholarship

'The Falling Man' includes new introduction

This week, to commemorate the 13th anniversary of September 11, Esquire has put an expanded version of its National Magazine Award nominated feature “The Falling Man” behind a paywall and plans to donate all resulting revenue to a scholarship fund set up in honor of James Foley, the American journalist executed by ISIS terrorists last month.

Written by Tom Junod, “The Falling Man” first appeared in the September 2003 issue of Esquire. It tells the story behind AP photographer Richard Drew’s now-iconic photo of a man jumping from the North Tower of the World Trade Center during the 9/11 attacks.
