Description:

The collapse of 7 World Trade Center occurred during this video. The resulting dust & smoke cloud is plainly visible. I spent most of the late morning and early afternoon filming the aftermath of the attacks from the promenade along the Belt Parkway in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. This video includes the live radio coverage from the two major all-news AM stations in New York, 1010 WINS and WCBS 880. I held my radio near the camera so that the reports were recorded live on the video. You will also hear my voice relaying to my wife via mobile phone that I believed 7WTC had just collapsed.

It is interesting that they said the terrorists looked for weaknesses in the buildings. If you look where the buildings were hit, those sections were being constructed at the same time. The north tower had a 20-30 story lead over the south tower during construction.

As I filmed this scene with the burning buildings in the distance, I wasn't shocked, but I was angered that so many people displayed a self-righteous "resolve" that nothing in this world or the next, would deter them from their daily routines.

Indeed it was a tragedy... It must have been terrible to be there during that. Did you see the towers get hit live, or did you arrive later?

No, I didn't see the planes strike. I was in my home, about 4 blocks from the location of this video at the time of the attacks. I began filming shortly before the collapse of the second tower. I posted my video of that collapse here on YouTube.

I agree that this was the worst tragedy in American history, especially when you consider the civilian casualties. Of course, other nations have suffered more civilian casualties in single attacks during times of war, and I wouldn't wish to diminish their tragedies.

God damn im around ground zero everyday and I feel guilty saying this but sometimes I forget about them when im not looking at its direction but when I look at where they use to be my heart drops everytime. Its mindblowing and it STILL hasn't hit me yet that this happened. By far the worst tragedy that has ever happened.
