Default New 9/11 video

I don't think this has been posted,

A video that was released on the 5 year anniversary of 9/11, shot from an apartment 36 floors up and 500 yards away. Nobody had seen it until just recently. Nothing new in it that you didn't already know...but its chilling to see it from a new perspective.

Same for me. It really brought back what the feeling was like watching it happen live, particularly hearing the woman crying in the background saying, "All of those people." I think that was everyones reaction.

I guess the video has more intimate talking, crying and some good zoom-in shots of the base of the building, but other than that the footage isn't any more dramatic.

I still find the videos that were shot from street level and actually show the planes hitting the towers to be the most moving.

Yeah I thought that was a little strange. It was edited in another place too (can't remember when, maybe when one of the towers collapsed).

the first link is in quicktime format.

This is Looger and the other conspiracy theorists wet dream. The cuts when the second plane hits and the first tower falls and the "it was a military plane" comment add fuel to their little fire. I'm sure they're all madly writing up new articles in their tinfoil lined basements.

I really have to wonder why they would cut out the plane hitting the tower. Wouldn't that be one of the most dramatic parts? Really odd.

There were alot of cuts in that film. Its possible that she wasnt filming when the second plane hit and the first tower falls.

yeah, and the "military plane" comment is really what got me.. we've seen all the other footage before, but the 2nd plane hitting being described as a military plane, then being cut out of the video is very suspect.

That would make sense if it wasn't a fade-out/fade-in effect...
