Graphic Gore Photos: Madrid Train Bombing | 700 Spanish Angels


The date was March 11, 2004, the location, Madrid, Spain. The carnage was unbelievable. Ten bombs exploded on four individual train compartments in the space of only a few short minutes.

As a result, human body parts were strewn for hundreds of yards in every direction.

Police and Public suspicion was that the bombings were politically motivated.

Thought to be in retaliation for Spain's participation in the war against Iraq—Al Qaeda was the obvious culprit.

No solid evidence however, tied any single terrorist group to the deadly bombings.

Meanwhile, friends and relatives of the dead and wounded tried to make some sense of it all—as inside the train station a make-shift morgue was designed.

Young Teen's Painful Suicide | Jumps from 100 Story Building


Every time I hear about a young person taking their life by suicide, a familiar song begins to play in my head. What if that person had just "hung on" a bit longer?

Maybe then, with a few more seconds, their train of thought might have changed for the better, or if maybe a few extra seconds may have allowed them a a more positive out look on their dire situation?

Or maybe someone on the ground, a loved one perhaps, could have said something to them—some words of hope perhaps, which may have changed their mind.

It's sad, that once the decision to jump is made, theirs no more second thoughts or chances to save yourself. What must that feel like?
