I'm sure the shot is 22mi.

I used the ruler tool in Google Earth to measure the distance from Floral park to WTC and it is 16 miles. How did you arrive at 22?

Hey is that the golf course in Glen cove??

I used to go to this golf course in Glen cove where you could see the city skyline from it. Pretty cool.

I was in LI when 9-11 happened and even from Roslyn you couldn't see the city (obviously) but you could see the plume of smoke.

As the crawl indicates, the golf course is the North Shore Towers Country Club, formerly the Glen Oaks Golf and Country Club (1923-1969), which sold the land to NST developer Sigmund Sommer and moved to Westbury.

This was shot in HD?

Please, make the airplane shot available in HD. I'd be happy to cover the expenses, if that's an issue.

Thanks.

CORRECTION: I misspoke when I said it was shot in HD. I own a Sony HD NOW but on 9/11 I was using a STANDARD DEFINITION Mini DV Sony camcorder. Sorry for the error. I doubt that HD would have improved the clarity more than incrementally shooting through 16 miles of atmosphere.

Queensdude, was the tape recording in your possession this whole time?

Weird, another guy from Queens uploaded his tape of the attack on the same day you did, 9-10-08. His handle is johnstayhome. Coincidence, eh?

I also love how you present this video starting with with ariel view of the golf course to give the viewer a sense of how far you really are from the WTC. You should send this video to tributes4wtc or make it public some how. Great footage bro!5 Stars.

This proves that planes never actually hit the towers. The NSA used a top secret video distortion tomography wave that affected any digital recording device within a 16.1 mile radius such that megapixels in the shape of airplanes would appear to fly into the towers. This would not appear on analog film, which is why DARPA secretly funded Sony and Canon's advertising campaigns since 1996 so that digital cameras would proliferate and nobody would capture the CIA-planned WTC attack on celluloid.

[Commack08]

At that many miles away, you shouldn't have been able to hear much of the second plane hitting, but at :41 seconds you hear a rapid fire series of rattles indicating a shockwave. For the shockwave to arrive at your location so quickly, you just may have caught the perfect evidence of high explosives as some theorists have suggested. (much higher velocity shockwaves.)

@Queensdude I was born in Floral Park.

[Kalphiter45]

Wrong one, my home to WTC is 22 miles, my grandparents' house to WTC is 17.

my aunt lives right by the north shore towers

Any chance you will make available an uncompressed DV copy for research?
