They show a lot of videos where there's

massive panic, but in this one, everybody

really just is shock. It was really quiet.

It was very sad and touching to see people's

faces in shock of what just happened and

them not knowing how to react.

There are no words that can describe the looks and the emotions that came upon these people's faces, perfectly. Those looks are the kind of looks that make a person want to cry just because of the pain that person is going through.

Again, they show all of these videos

of people jumping from towers, and people

just in chaos in the street, but this shows nothing

like those videos.

The people hanging out of the building and falling

is just sickening.

It's weird to think that people would

hate a country so much that they

would do something like this.

The people in the video are

just in shock. The guy found out

on the video that the second

tower had been hit and they

started evacuating people for their

own safety.

The horror and confusion in these people's voices is terrifying. They don't understand what is going on, but I do. And that makes me want to crawl into a corner a cry.

This shows some of the chaos that

is shown in other 9/11 videos. The

police trying to get everybody safe,

but that's just not happening.

This made me physically and mentally exhausted watching people run around

frantically because they did not know what to do. It was just shocking and disgusting,

and made me want to cry.

Watching people falling down the side of the

building, just falling, with no hope, was horrible.

I have no other words.

Sarah: 14 Maidan Lane

sarahconroy — 2014-09-12 13:45:46 UTC

It was frightening to see the tower collapse and a huge form of dust just engulf the whole street.

Although, I believe that the people had the right idea to stay inside and away from the horror.

I know it's odd to say this, but this looks

exactly like when the apocalypse hits in

an apocalypse movie. The people are terrified.

The people jumping and falling out of the building is just so devastating. When the guy said that it is probably really hot and that they are probably burning up, I wanted to scream at him. Of course they are hot and burning up!! They are in a building that is on fire, for goodness sake!!

Sarah: Building 5

sarahconroy — 2014-09-12 13:49:22 UTC

I had to re watch the video to fully understand the intensity of the situation that was going on in that moment

leannreynolds20 — 2014-09-12 13:52:19 UTC

All the people could say was, "It's

not safe here, it's not safe here!"

That just makes me sick to my

stomach.

shelbywood2017 — 2014-09-12 13:52:30 UTC

The mass confusion is super upsetting. Everybody has a different opinion. It is so sad that people didn't even know that a second plane had hit.

Sarah: Gateway Plaza

sarahconroy — 2014-09-12 13:54:14 UTC

The video gave a more drastic look as to how devastating it must have been to watch this and see people running for their lives and taking cover. Or more importantly, being pulled away in ambulances.

The guy who was filming this was ambitious. He knew what was happening and the importance of it.

In the video, you can't really

hear the explosion of the second

plane, but when the girls scream,

you know what it must have been

like.

Shelby: City Hall Park

shelbywood2017 — 2014-09-12 14:02:37 UTC

It is terrifying to see people just standing around, watching debris and smoke surround them. I just want to go and shake them and tell them to get moving, don't die...

I can't even imagine running for

your life with the ash falling all

around you like that...

skylynbilledo20 — 2014-09-12 14:05:31 UTC

These people are really in shock.

It's really just scary.

The condition that the fire fighters

were in, was insane. They were covered

in ash from head to toe except where

their hats were.
