I'm not American and nor do I live in America. But watching this and remembering when this happened, Just breaks my heart. Very moving video, Ty for making it xx

I was given to understand "we" never had a moving shot of the first tower getting hit! That thing looks like it crashes through straight in from the TOP of the tower to where it explodes out the lower side! And why is the fully equipped fireman already 'waiting there' as if to expect the FIRST hit??!! This is astonishing footage I've seen nowhere before! {Thank you Ned for this heart-wrenching Memorial fittingly today, Easter Sunday 2011.} ~_~

@evernetherall The day of the 9/11 attacks, filmmakers Jules and Gedeon Naudet were filming a documentary about a rookie fireman Tony Benetatos. He was working on a gas leak when American Airlnes 11 flew by overhead. Jules turned the camera to follow the plane and taped the first plane hitting the North Tower. The members of Battalion 1 that were investigating the gas leak were the first responders on the scene and Jules was allowed to follow the chief during the attempted rescue operation.

@NedNickerson2010 The documentary was completed and released a few months later. CBS aired the film commercial-free in March 2002 to mark the 6-month anniversary of the 9/11 attacks. The film was re-aired on the first anniversary and released on DVD. Do a Google search for "9/11 (film)" as well as "Jules and Gedeon Naudet" for more information about the film.
