Re: Boeing 737 HELIOS Crash Scene in Greece
I think one of the most amazing things about most plane crash scenes is the utter lack of blood. With this scale of carnage you would expect blood by the truckload. Granted most of it is probably around the cabin interior, it is just fascinating how little if not any blood you see.

Re: Boeing 737 HELIOS Crash Scene in Greece
Well I think the lack of blood is due to the fact that from what I have read, 1/2 the bodies were burned, and the other reason is that the bodies were mostly intact. (My god some of those pictures are horrific, a few people were decapitated and that poor woman whose entire stomach is torn open.) I remember reading that after the crash of US Air Flight 427 in the Pittsburgh area in 1994, the bodies were ripped to shreds and there was ALOT of blood at that scene. It was a much higher speed crash at a steep angle. From most reports it was one of the most horrible plane crash scenes ever in terms of gore.

Re: Boeing 737 HELIOS Crash Scene in Greece
Because it crashed at a relatively low angle and was out of fuel. (I'm not sure what the speed was, but it was also probably slower than any of the 9/11 crashes.) Not all plane crash sites look alike. Take a look at pictures from the Valujet crash in the Everglades, or the 747 runway collision in the Canary Islands for some rather different-looking scenes. |
