An intriguing photo taken in 1919 seems to suggest it may
take awhile for us to realize we're dead.
An RAF squadron during World War I poses for a photo. When
the photo is developed and they look at the images there, they see someone who
wasn't there when the photo was taken. The man was Freddy Jackson, a mechanic
who had died in a tragic accident two days before and had, in fact, been buried
the same day the photo was taken.
Why did Freddy feel it was important to appear in the photo?
It may be he didn't realize that he was, in fact, dead. Perhaps he was trapped
in that nether world between Earth and the afterlife. It may be that serving in
a war created such a special bond that Freddy Jackson just couldn't bear to
leave his mates behind.
Even though the early part of the Twentieth Century was rife with interest in the paranormal and hoax photos weren't uncommon, the Freddy Jackson photo has so far never been debunked -- and continues to be one of the most talked-about photos in paranormal realms.
