The photo of "Vultures and Little Girls" shocked the world. Did the girl get eaten?

People are always easily shocked by images with strong impact. The more exciting they are, the more conspicuous they are. But when the noise gradually slows down and people leave contentedly, the truth left behind is plain and unreal.

This photo is called "Hungry Sudan" by South African photographer Kevin? What Carter did. At that time, the whole country of Sudan was in chaos, and besides war, it also faced widespread famine. Kevin filmed the victims receiving relief food. He found the skinny child nearby.

There are too many versions of the stories that happened later, and the media always like to choose the most curious and gloomy angle to interpret them. Even now, it is difficult to find the absolute truth in the varied information.

From the news I found myself, the reduced facts are as follows:

Kevin originally wanted to record this curled-up child to reflect the current bad situation in Sudan. But it happened that a vulture fell behind the child, which was a rare scene. Kevin waited for more than 20 minutes to find the perfect angle, and finally took this photo that shocked the world.

After the photo came out, Kevin began to suffer a humanitarian attack. People severely accused him of coming forward to help the child instead of looking on coldly. Some people even think that the child was finally eaten by vultures.

People's anger is so high that who cares about Kevin's pale explanation? First of all, there are many victims receiving food next to the shooting location, and the children are not alone. Secondly, the child's mother is nearby and can come and take care of it at any time. Finally, Kevin and his friends drove away the vultures without hurting the children.

The world in front of the camera may be too dramatic, making people feel that the photographer behind it is as tall as the judge.

Under great pressure, Kevin committed suicide by burning charcoal at home on 1994 at the age of 34. Things didn't end there. As I said before, the onlookers dispersed after satisfying their sense of justice about the world, which is really worthless to them. They didn't even know the sex of the child.

That's a little boy. At that time, I was freed and survived successfully. By 2007, he died of fever without timely treatment.

Kevin died at the hands of vultures.
