So where were you - When you heard about wtc bombings?

[Doc]

I saw the second plane come across the harbor. As soon as I said something like what is that stupid fucking plane doing, it disappeared behind tower 2 and we saw the explosion.

Same thing here.

The second plane was moving so fast, I barely had time to think anything. My friend actually said "Hey, is that plane trying to get a closer look?"

That was the moment right there, when the second plane hit, when we knew that this was no accident, that I felt fear for the time that day. That was absolutley the crappiest feeling I've ever had, up until an hour later when I watched them fall. Then that took the top spot on the list.

It was so wierd after they fell. People were screaming and yelling as it happened, but after it was finished collapsing, no one made a sound. There were 100 people there, and not a peep. No screaming, no crying, nothing. There was complete silence for what seemed like forever as we just watched in utter disbelief while a cloud of dust covered the entirety of lower Manhattan.

It was only after a minute that everyone started crying. Then it was the desperate scramble to locate my friends who work in Mahattan. The fact that Giants game on Monday Night Football went into overtime saved their lives. They worked in Tower 2, but because we were up late watching the game, they overslept and weren't in the building when it got hit.

--Edit--
Buttmunch, my friends who I just mentioned above were on that same PATH train. They said it pulled into the station, the doors didn't open, and it got the fuck out
