Thread of the Insane

[Colonel Frank Grimes]

Alicia Esteve Head is a Spanish woman who claimed to be a survivor of the World Trade Center September 11 attacks under the name Tania Head.

Tania Head’s heartrending account of narrowly surviving the terror attack on New York’s Twin Towers, but losing her fiancée to the terrorists that same morning, became the ultimate tale of inspiration not just for other survivors but for an entire nation left reeling by 9/11.

She joined the support group World Trade Center Survivors' Network. She later became a spokesperson and president of the group and was regularly mentioned in media reports of the attacks.

In 2007 it was learned her story was fabricated. Head was not in the building at the time of the attacks and had traveled to the United States for the first time in 2003.
