Sept. 15, 2019
A viral Facebook photo taken on Sept. 11 shows cloud formations that some say look like a firefighter moving toward an angel.

A Florida man posted a photo to Facebook he took on Sep. 11 which appears to show a firefighter and an angel in a cloud formation.

Matt Snow, a school teacher from the Jacksonville area, snapped the photo on the 18th anniversary of the 2001 terror attacks, saying it resembled "a firefighter running with a hose and an angel with the sun perfectly behind it" in his Facebook post, which has since gone viral.

The photo has been shared on the social media platform hundreds of times with over 20,000 likes, according to an estimate by Snow.

"The comments have been some of the most genuine emotions you can imagine. From instantly crying, to goosebumps, to having a community get-together talking about it," Snow wrote in a follow-up post after the photo began spreading.
