KickChick Posted September 19, 2001 Share Posted September 19, 2001 Jeremy Glick was one of the heros on the Philidelphia flight who together with 3 other men fought the hijackers. It was through his brave actions that hundreds and perhaps thousands of lives were saved. In a cell phone conversation with his wife from the air, he told her that he and a few other passengers were going to try to overtake the hijackers.He was not only a big, muscular guy, but he was also a black belt in judo and former champion.

Kickbutt Posted September 19, 2001 Share Posted September 19, 2001 Thanks KickChick - I've been waiting for info about that man, very interesting. He died a true hero and yes, he and the others saved many lives - including perhaps that of the President himself, as one of the targets was to be Air Force One...what an amazing group of heroes!!!!!!

babysteffee Posted September 20, 2001 Share Posted September 20, 2001 Jeez, it is unbelievable. What a brave man. I hope those hijackers took a huge beating from Jeremy Glick and the others before they all died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowland Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 A true samuri. A pity the passengers did not succeed in regaining control of the aircraft in time, but at least they thwarted a dastardly plan. My condolances and respect to the victims families. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G95champ Posted April 5, 2003 Share Posted April 5, 2003 Good stuff. I only pray that if faced with the same situation I could have acted as those did on that plane. (General George S.
