FBI page link: Boston Bombing Suspects: 2 very average looking guys, wow.

In the FBI video of the suspects, they turn left onto Boylston street at a corner. Which crossstreet is it?

Here's the video and you can see them walk from the cross street and turn left onto Boylston around 0:24 to 0:30.

There's a wooden telephone pole on that corner (far right of video). I don't think that's Fairfield, which is the street that in David Green's post-bomb photo shows white-hat suspect turning down. Which cross street is in the video?

I'm sure the FBI is considering where did they come from beforehand and where did they go afterward. The T? Car? Walk from an apartment or hotel? Take a cab?

Looks like in both David Green's post-bomb photo and the FBI video that they came from and went afterwards *north* of Boylston St. But who knows where. Of course, during the race, you can't cross Boylston at that point. But after the bomb, everyone is fleeing in all kinds of directions even in the race route, but white-hat suspect turns north on Fairfield.

r u serious? I live in west cambridge and there's sirens everywhere right now. could be the manhunt for the MIT cop killer though[quote]el kabong wrote:

That's interesting. Did they come and leave by bike? Would they do that with a pressure-cooker bomb on their back? Does make you wonder how the came and left. The T was closed afterward. Parking is non-existent there on race day. Doubt they took a cab. If they walked, how close did they live or were staying at a hotel.

Serious. From the feed, yes, this involves the MIT cop shooter(s).

If you're serious then stay the hell inside. Bomb squad just came on the scene. Listen to the scanner. They said they're on 98 Spruce a 3 block radius.

Then you think the door is 12'2"

Nope

Study perception for a while

Except we should expect a strap around the pants leg for a cyclist to be on the right leg, not left. At least that's which side the bike chain is on.

holy crap this is crazy; i'm not getting to sleep tonight!

My brother was in the area-and told me the T was shut down almost immediately-and few were foolish enough to want to ride it anyway.

Do you even know what perception is? He's not near the door to even assume that he'd be "half the door".

wow, I know a guy who lives on the block where the bombers are cornered. You can see his family's grocery in the TV video. Hope his family is safe

Your vanishing point escapes into the street. It needs to huge the line of the buildings behind the cafe patio.

The woman in the pink is not 6'.

The woman next to her, at the wall of the building is not 6'. She is not standing on an incline.

The guy between the two woman is not 6'6".

Adjust your vanishing point. Pick another reference for height. The white cap guy will under 6'.

Here is some help for your vanishing point adjustment.

Make sure to deselect the 45 degree view option. You want the satellite view, not a plane perspective view.

Found another pic of the suspect: http://i.imgur.com/zuzehYo.jpg

There is a video of a suspect lying prostrate. He's white, with dark wavy hair, probably in his twenties.

Holy shit, doesn't matter! Police scanner, guys!!! GET ON THE POLICE SCANNER!!!

I haven't followed the MIT, gunman, explosion story. Is that in anyway related to the marathon bombings?

I find it interesting that it looks like white-hat bombing suspect exited up Fairfield going north after the bomb and it looks like in the FBI video that they came from the north and turned left onto Boylston.

MIT is walking distance just across the Charles River on the Mass Ave bridge. And if the suspects, who are college age and wearing preppie/yuppie hats (Ralph Lauren Polo and Bridgestone Golf), came from MIT, then exiting on Fairfield would be a pretty direct route walking from bombings back to MIT.

More help for the change the guy's height from 6'1"
