Earlier this year, TrendHunter.com reported on the naked falling photographs of UK model Agyness Deyn. The photographer, Ryan McGinley, shot Agyness and two stunt men jumping from five stories and landing on a giant crash mat. Well, the photographs made it into the fall issue of POP magazine, which is entitled "Feeling Falling". The pictures shown here are with a clothed Agyness.
McGinley was inspired from an old photograph dating back to the 1950's of kids falling from a fire escape.
