This video begins with a warning about the graphic nature of the material. 9/11/01 8:46 New York time the first plane hit the North Tower of the
World Trade Center. This video was produced for the 15 year anniversary of the attack.This presentation is just a combination of videos and pictures from the attack, starting just before the first plane. There is not any organized narration, just the voices of those that are on the actual videos. Sometimes there is no sound, but most of the time the sounds of what was happening. You hear the reaction of people to the events, the first responders directing people and news commentators talking among themselves about the scene. There are 9-11 calls included, and police guidance.
The most graphic scenes are after the first tower falls, and the horrendous dust cloud overwhelms people. There are rescuers seeking water and many seeking fresh air. Those in close apartment buildings tried to shut their windows with some success. The dust was tremendous. There is a brief scene with reaction from those watching on monitors at Times Square. There was lots of anger, and many seeking revenge.
The dust cloud scenes were repeated when the second tower fell. What a tragic day.
