Narration is only by the people shooting from there phone or cameras along with emergency calls on 911 or emergency services radio. It was the first time I saw it and it was simply amazing. It should be a requirement in all modern american history class across the country.

i dont know if i saw that particular documentary/video compilation. i saw one which was shot from personal video by firefighters in the tower after the first plane hit. it was heart wrenching and not at all for the faint of heart.

at one point (before the 2nd plane hit or towers collapsed), fiefighters where in like this first floor area kinda basement area, there was this constant but not rythmic thud sound happening. one guy asked what that sound was, another said that was bodies of people jumping. i couldnt watch much more after that.
