World Trade Center Collapse on 9/11/2001 (short), Original Footage
Footage I filmed of the World Trade Center Collapsing on 9/11/2001. Filmed from the roof of 64 St Marks Place in NYC on a Sony VX2000 with teleconverter. For historical archival purposes only.
Clarification: Here are some additional notes to address a few questions that I have been constantly receiving. I woke up that day and realized everyone was out on the streets staring south. When I looked, I saw the first tower burning. Once I saw the second airplane make impact, I thought this was no ordinary incident and ran to get my camera and tripod. The day I filmed the footage, I made a copy of the tape and rollerbladed (as public transportation was not available) to the nearest precinct to provide the footage to authorities. The precinct brushed me away, telling me that they were too busy and did not take my video tape.
To those who ask me why I did not immediately, submit the video to “competent authorities“ or get the word out, please remember that 2001 was a very different world from today. There were no smart phones, and internet access was mainly through dial up 56kbps connections using AOL or Earthlink. Google Search / Google maps / Uber didn’t exist. After 911, public transportation was shut down and phone service was unreliable, the information available was mainly through the radio or word of mouth, and it was difficult to know what was true. There were talks of someone hearing that the Empire State Building would be next, and that all access in and out of Manhattan was blocked. I flipped through a physical phone book to figure out what precinct to go to and then roller bladed, as there was no other method of transportation. Upon arriving at the precinct, the staff had much more immediate tasks, and my offer to give them a video tape fell on deaf ears. I hope the people asking why I “didn’t just take the video to competent authorities“ understand that 2001 was not like today where anyone can just use their iPhone to search where to go, what the hours of operations are, and how to get here.
