Come to us! Come to us!
SIRENS
MAN: Oh, my God!

This is the view from our window.
It's a gorgeous day!
A regular decaf as well.
Er, I'm going to have my espresso.
Hey, guys, look this way. Randy.
OK, if you just joined us, welcome and have a seat. Look to the left,
that's the World Trade Center.
A couple of years ago, there was a terrorist attack
inside the World Trade Center and here's what happened...
The terrorists went inside that garage
and they parked the car filled with explosives.
In the wrong garage. They parked it in the garage of the Vista Hotel.
The terrorists rented out a car from New Jersey.
They went back to collect the 100 dollar cash deposit
and the FBI was there waiting for them. That's how they were caught.
September 11th, 2001.

What the hell was that?
Sounded like a plane crash.
Come to us, come to us!
Wha-What is that?
Something, somebody hit, er, the World Trade Center or the...
It's the Trade Center! It's the World Trade Center.
It looks like something crashed into it. Yes!

SIRENS BLARE
Oh, my God!
There's paper everywhere. Holy sh...
That's crazy.
What's up? Holy shit!
There's a bomb, it just went off in the World Trade Center.
No, it's an airplane.
You saw... How do you know it was an airplane?
It sounded like that.
They're saying on Channel 10. Did you hear it?
How could a plane crash into the World Trade Center in mid-morning?
I guess they didn't see it.
Planes can't fly that low. It would have hit, like...
I don't know, I heard the crash,
I looked out my window and I could see things falling down
the building and I was like... "Oh, my God, it was a bomb."
I thought it was a bomb, at least.
Oh, shit!
We have a number of floors on fire.
It looked like the plane was aiming towards the building.
We'll have the staging area at Vesey and West Street.
MUFFLED SPEECH THROUGH RADIO
Yeah. You stay with me.
OK, I hope this is catching me.
Minutes ago, I was walking down Chamber Street
and fully saw the entire event.
I saw the plane from the sky pass right into it.
This is history.
It's a tragedy like the Hindenburg disaster.
Oh, shit!
Mike, Mike, there's debris falling down from the face.
Can you see it? See it falling?
Mike, let's go check it out. Come on.
Come this way!
WOMAN SOBBING
That's close to us.
How did it start?
Argh! No!
It's unbelievable.
I'm, like, standing here, videotaping it.
It's on the news.
It's an airplane! No?!
It looked like an airplane crashed into the building.
No way! Oh, my God!
No, there'd be pieces of it on the fucking ground. On the side.
I don't know. Oh, damn, this sucks!
How can you hit the biggest building in New York?
Thank God it wasn't terrorists, though. I know.
REPORTER: Plenty of people were likely in their offices
when all this happened at about a quarter of nine.
SECOND REPORTER: A quarter of nine or so,
as people are coming in, in the elevators.
Roughly 50,000 people, as we know,
work at the World Trade Centre complex.
We wish we could tell you exactly what was going on inside.
The question is, what has happened to the people on those upper floors?

SOBBING
My partner was up there.
We're gonna keep this area clear. Let's go, let's go.
Don't stay here. Keep moving. Please keep moving.
The reason I turned is cos I heard it, right here.
It was just really low.
So, it came from this side, not from the river?
It came right over, through here.
Made a nice little snake in the curve
and tipped a little bit and just went right in.
Was that a 737? I couldn't identify the craft.
It was a medium-sized jetliner.
It looked to me like stuff actually shot out
of the other side of the building.
Looking at the right-hand side, you can see flames coming out.
Sure looks it. I wonder if it's gonna topple?
No. No, no, no, no, no. Can't do that.
I'm an architect. I know...
The way they've designed these buildings,
it'll be almost impossible to knock it over.
Cut on the whole right side,
that must be a wing that sheared that off.
Yeah, you could see it.
Oh, shit!
Oh, my God! SCREAMING
Oh, my God!

OK, will you please wait for me?
Do we take the elevator?
I don't wanna be on the 32nd floor of this building any more.
MAN: Holy shit!
Oh, my God, there was a major explosion,
I thought that it was thunder or something.
And then I saw this paper falling
and I thought, "There's a ticker tape parade."
And I look down on Broadway, I think of the ticker tape parade,
and then I turn and I see this.
The World Trade Center is fucking on fire!
Unbelievable.

NEWS ANCHOR: Almost every building has just about been emptied.
The streets are filled with people stunned, scared, frightened, crying.
It is absolutely amazing to see just the sheer panic
in the streets right now. Many people are running.
There are emergency vehicles coming from every direction.
My goodness!
WOMAN: Can we keep it moving, please?
I understand we've re-established contact with Dick Oliver.
Er... Dick is on the phone. Yes, Jim.
Yeah, Dick.
Jim, yes, just well, moments ago, as you know, another vehicle,
some kind of an aircraft crashed into the World Trade Center.
This is no accident. This is no bomb from inside.
This is, as you put it, a terrorist attack.
There's no two ways about it.
Some people said they thought they saw a missile.
Ollie, I must say that we have an eye witness
who said it was a large plane.
And again, let's just, to be sure, there it is. Oh!
There it is, the plane went right through
the other tower of the World Trade Center.
That is a very hard thing to watch.
Oh, my God!
That is so fucked up, man!

This is terror, this has got to be a terrorist.
You think it is? For sure. Yeah.
For two planes? One right aft... There were two?!
Another one just hit it! Yeah. I did not know that.
It was another aircraft hit it. You're kidding?!
I thought it was an accident. I saw the first plane.
I thought it was just an honest accident.
No, we were just crossing the overpass
and we saw it right there. Unbelievable.
So, we've gotta get out of this building? Yes. I have to.
They want us to evacuate.
Apparently, a second airplane hit the Trade Center.
They are evacuating our building.
The police has asked all of us to get out of these tall buildings.
They're evacuating the whole building?
You bet. It's better, because our building's really high.
We don't know what's gonna happen. Yeah, a second plane hit?
A second plane hit. That's on purpose then.
Yeah, it's definitely on purpose. Yeah. Fucking unbelievable!
WOMAN: It was a British Airways, the second one. Was it?
Was it British Airways? It was a commercial airline.
Yeah, I saw that one. But a second one hit too.
Someone said British Airways
hit the second World Trade, right in the middle.
You're kidding?!
The smell is unbelievable.
The smell of burning wire and metal.
It looks as if there's people hanging from the windows.
Unbelievable!
There's our building...

Dangerously close.

Yeah, I wouldn't stay around.
I saw the explosion, the first one.
But I thought it was a bomb. But then they said, no, it was a plane.
All of a sudden, the other, the same thing.
And now I hear somebody said in the news
that they said they're gonna do it every half hour.
So... They're gonna fly a plane into this thing every half hour? Yeah.
Isn't it done enough? I mean...?
Oh, my... I've never seen anything like this.
This is much worse than the other bomb.
This is... Of course!
Do you know there were people jumping off? That's what I heard.
The guy saw, saw six of them jump. One after the other.

What?
What?!
How could you see somebody fall from here, baby?
He fell out of the building?

The holes don't look as big as the planes.
I think the entrance holes are on the other side.
I don't think the building will collapse. I mean, it's...

'Everyone. People can't believe what they heard or they saw.
'The smoke is billowing, still heading towards Brooklyn.
'It... You can smell the smoke from here. It's... unbelievable.'
As we were putting our shoes... to go check this shit out, erm,
a second plane hit the Trade Center.
Like, are we under attack? Is there, like, was it was maybe a missile?
Heading off to get up on our roof.

There's dust all over the streets.
If we leave with Daschiel, he's covered with dust!
We can't take him outside.
WOMAN ON TV: '..trapped inside, and they're obviously being...'
CLATTERING
HE SIGHS
This is really scary.
Four tapes... An extra battery. Let's see how this battery's doing.
What are you listening to?
It's a Max... mass exodus?
MAN ON TV: 'They're breathing ash. Very hard to breathe in this area.'
You're kidding me.
'..people are exiting.' Are you serious?
'..ambulances continue to ride...' Where are they going?
OK, I'm gonna...
All right, I'm gonna go get him right now.
OK, I'm gonna go get him right now. OK. Bye, bye.
He's freaking out at me. Who?
He wants me to get... Gus wants me to get Spencer right now.
Why? We can't drive.
I have to go walk and get him.
SIRENS
Are they not letting us cross the street here, Max?
Just go around, Jessie. Go around. Right around it.
That way, folks.
SIRENS
OK. All right, Tom, we've just...
Tom, we've just been told we're being evacuated.
You can see all the emergency workers walking north
on the Westside Highway in New York.
We've been told by firefighters here
that there's report of a bomb in this building.
This is a school, a high school right here.
And as you can see, they're moving everybody away
from this building.
Officer, do you have any idea of what the problem is?
There's a report of secondary device possibly in the area of this school.
So they're gonna move everybody back as a precaution.
Secondary device meaning a bomb? Possibly.
SIRENS, FIRE ENGINE HORN BLARES
SPEAKS IN FRENCH
Hold on! Hold on, hold on.
Sir, don't go that way. Sir, come this way. Sir!
I've got my granddaughter in there.
Take the women and children first.
Everybody else take a step back.
Come on, ladies, get in!
OK, let's go! Just remain calm!
WHISTLING
Come this way, ladies!
Be careful. We're gonna get soaking wet here, OK?
So just hold on tight...
NEWS ANCHOR: Our coverage continues now
with 1010 WINS news anchor Judy DeAngelis.
JUDY: And we are just getting word now that New York City's
primary election has been called off,
obviously after the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center.
I saw the plane hit ten seconds later.
I had a clear shot of the World Trade Center, 30 blocks north.
I was in my last stop,
my last handshake with one minute to go.
Did you see a 747 crashed... near Pittsburgh?
And I mean where's, er... And where's the top brass?
Coming from Newark going to San Francisco.
Have they said where the joint chiefs are?
They haven't said anything.
Er, the Defence Secretary's in the Pentagon.
Can you imagine being a teacher today? No.
With a classroom of kids, got to explain this.
Were you in court?
No.
All right...
All right, so, erm...
Oh, yeah.
Are we on the right floor? Yes.
Oh. This is it.
Hi! Hi.
Ah...
Hi, sweetie boy! How you doing?
Fine.
Spencer, you wanna get your bag?
You come with us.
Yes. Yes.
Both.
That's what I hear.
Aw...
That's not something to smile about, Spencey.
I know you do.
All right, Spencer. See you later. Bye!
OK, thanks. Bye, guys.
Guys, why don't we take, um...
take more people out the front?
In the front? Yeah, I think you go in the back.
And I'd appreciate it if you don't point that at me.
Holy... shit!
This is just insane.

Please come back in a few hours.
They will definitely still need blood.
They will definitely still be taking blood.
NYFD RADIO
We need volunteers for first aid.
We need a couple of guys on the other side here.
REPORTER: And we should also point out, making this rescue effort
more dangerous and also occupying the efforts of the firefighters,
there apparently are fires at two more buildings
at the World Trade Center, number seven and five.
And the one at seven, at least we believe,
we're told anyway, that the gas lines are feeding that fire, too.
So there's still fire going on down there.
We're talking now eight hours
after the first of the planes hit at the World Trade Center.
RADIO STATIC
Sir! Sir!
RUMBLING
SCREAMING
REPORTER: It does appear that building number seven has collapsed.
We've been telling you that that building was on fire,
building number seven at the trade complex
has now apparently collapsed.
Now a huge amount of smoke and debris now up in that area again
because of this building number seven going down...
Where's the World Trade Center?
It's not there any more, baby.
It's gone?
Cos the smoke is covering it? No.
They took it away?
You got the cats?
Of course I have.
Yes. OK.
Keep it moving, folks! Keep it moving!
Did you see that?
Check, check.
It's Andrew, dog and a cat.
I'm heading off to Union Square.
It's the first time in about three days
that I've been filming anything.
There's a lot of people here.
Very quiet. Kind of serene.
Most people are lighting candles.
It's nice that everybody's sort of supporting one another.
CHEERING AND APPLAUSE
OK, we're looking out my living room window.
I'm going to try to zoom in. It may be shaky.
That used to be the Trade Center, right there.
That shell is all that's left.
