I was working for Atlantic Bank of New York at this time, and my office was on the 106th floor of 2 WTC (South Tower). I called in late that morning, told my boss I expected to be there by 11 AM because I had to drive my brother to the airport in Newark. Every single person I worked with, aside from 2 others who were out sick, had perished. Had I actually made it in by 8 AM as scheduled, I would’ve been dead. The thought still haunts me to this day.

The GMA version (I believe it was GMA, or maybe it was CBS) is really creepy. I dont recall the anchor's name at the time, About 30-40 minutes before the first plane it, he said "It's a quiet morning. Too quiet." And not even an hour later, the first plane crashed. It's weird tho too to see the pre-9/11 America literally minutes before it happened. So surreal. The last time of peace before this current era of distrust and anger.

As scary as this seems in hindsight, it's easy to forget just how much more terrifying it was in the moment. We didn't know who was doing it. We didn't know who would be next or where. Everyone was evaluating where they lived to figure out if it was a likely target. Everyone was confused and suspicious of others. The uncertainty is something it's difficult to get the younger folks today to understand. It was just horrific.

Yeah i skipped out of class after the Pentagon was hit. I was a senior in high school. The first class i walked into at 8am (9am ny) i saw the 2nd plane hit live. My geography teacher was always a happy go lucky guy, but that day we were all talking over the TV and he literally told us to shut the fuck up. After a couple of classes it was clear the entire country was watching. The whole day for me could best be described as an anxious excitement. Couldnt believe what was happening, freaking out looking into the sky waiting for planes to fall. It wasnt till my friends dad said after the 1st tower fell with his hands on his head, "do you know how many people we just watched die?" He had tears in his eyes and this guy was a bulldog of a man. Thats when the gravity of it really hit home. I still remember the clothes I was wearing 22 years later. Its one day that ill never forget a moment of.

14:36 Regular people are not trained to judge size accurately from a distance, especially if they do not have a point of reference - hence, they thought it was a small plane. From their standpoint, their brain tells them the tower and plane are two objects that are smaller then they really are. You have to really stop and think about it. The plane hit spanned 4+ floors of the tower, but people cannot correlate 4 floors of that building to 4 floors of the building where they are standing, which would make that a HUUUUGE airplane! This is why UFO reports need to always be approach with skepticism.

One company decided to evaluate from tower 2 despite what they said and except of couple of people everyone survived and they had several hundred employers (could have been more than 1000 I don't quite remember). There where other companies decided to stay though and they lost all or almost all employers. Even a company where they got down and then decided to take the elevator back up and all died. So it was important too who ever was in charge of fire on the floor or the company if people decided to follow orders or not. There are always some who do what they want but usually majority of people seem to follow orders and why it's so important that those who are in charge and give orders really consider what they are saying, you really are responsible for lives (I wouldn't want to make those decisions). Of course here they probably thought it was an accident and thought this was the safety option, sadly it was the wrong decision but I wouldnt plane whoever gave the orders. Though one thing I blame them for, they lied that the fire on tower 1 was contained, I understand not wanting to cause panic but this likely led to people not understanding the seriousness and then not able to make the best decision for themselves.

This coverage was terrible. Amateur-level. Rather watches video of the tower clearly collapsing and doesn’t get it. He repeatedly asks if “a section” of the tower has collapsed as video of the implosion plays. It’s one thing to urge caution so every rumor doesn’t gain traction, but he was cautious to a fault, so much so that he literally ignored what was playing out before his eyes. Even worse, he says that for the rest of the city, “life goes on”-cruelly insensitive and not at all what New Yorkers were feeling or experiencing. ABC’s coverage was vastly superior, and put this embarrassing team to shame.

Peter Jennings, at first, had a similar reaction. He didn’t realize what he was looking at until Don Dahler, who was on the scene, said, “The whole building has collapsed.” He said it twice.

For directional references to viewers. "Tower 1" and "Tower 2" don't really give a visual perspective to viewers looking at footage. Even to the firefighters inside, someone had to take a marker and draw #1 and #2 on something for the first responders. I suppose they could have used "North Tower" and "South Tower"...but most outside NYC have a better time discerning East and West since the towers were just east of the Hudson and therefore close to an East/West landmark when looking at footage.

Everyone in class knew it was an emergency. Everyone in class knew it was bad because we just watched our teacher look heartbroken at us as he listened to whatever the person told him on the phone. He got off the phone and said there was a terrorist attack in New York. No one in class knew what terrorism meant. It wasn't a part of our vocabulary. The bell rang for the next class. For a while, all the TVs came on in school to show everyone what was happening. By then, I was in the library for my Science Class. The librarians turned off the TVs. You could tell the teachers were really freaked out. After school, all the TV channels, even Nickelodeon and Disney Channel, were showing the towers burning. The radio was talking about the towers. KZfaq didnt exist, so the only way to escape the footage as a child was to play a video game or listen to a CD. I lived near a military base and everything shut down and everyone sent home. No one knew who knew if/when they could return to work.

What a joke tv station. Half a hour after one tower collapse, and they still are repeating that "some portion" fell, even that you literally cannot see building on video anymore. Second tower collapsed, and they still did not knew about first one. What a lag.

CBS probably was the worst of the three major networks that day. Especially disappointing considering what a legacy they've had over the years.

Wow, at 13:51 in the video you can see what appears to be the 2nd plane making a rapid descent at 9:02:48 am in the wide shot toward the south tower. I have never seen this angle before.

@@BillyBong First appears around 13:50 at the very top of the frame. In this camera view, draw an imaginary line with your eye up from the right side of the south tower. With that imaginary line you'll intersect with the 2nd plane incoming. It moves down/left diagonally across the frame for a brief moment. It's not visible by 13:52 because the smoke plume obscures it. Only appears for 2 seconds. 2nd tower impact is at 14:04, a full 12 seconds later. The object seen at 13:50 has to be the 2nd plane, considering it approached from the south and this camera angle would have captured the approach.

@mg3226 I couldn't see it, but you are right, I never seen this angle cause most from this position look like they are coming from the right of the screen or you can see it between the buildings before it hits. This(obviously cause of the angle) looks like its falling straight down. Never saw that aproach.

Yes, it was hard to figure out what was happening at the moment, but this CBS special report was, by far, the most inaccurate one of all the major networks that day. When the second plane crashed, they took a long time to see that it was actually a plane. Also, when the South Tower collapsed, even more than 30 minutes later they were still saying that just part of the tower had collapsed. All the other networks had eye witnesses confirming that the whole tower had collapsed within one minute or so of the collapse. And when the second tower had already collapsed, Dan Rather was saying that "it was on the process of collapsing." They had to see the videotape to realize what had happened.

Gumbel having the nerve to ask that witness why she thought it was deliberate when a plane crashed into the other tower not 20 minutes prior on a perfectly clear day... unbelievable.

@@wet-read I agree. Maybe he was trying to be clear on why people were saying it was deliberate but he came across as confrontational and as if he didn’t believe what the witnesses were saying.
