It's a 911 call from a guy who is apparently on the 105th floor- through most of the call there's a little red thing pinpointing about where he is...

The video itself is just an image of one of the towers after it had been struck - so it's all smoky.

The guy is on the line with a dispatcher and a firefighter at one point - then there's an "oh my God" and at that point the building starts to come down...it's going to give me freaking nightmares...

You don't want to see it.

It's a 911 transcript that has been tied to video. The guy is desperately trying to get someone from the fire department to rescue them. He keeps saying how he doesn't want to die. At the end of this clip, you hear him scream over the phone "Oh, god, oh god!!!" as you watch the top half of the tower where he was located crumble apart and crash to the ground.

I don't recommend viewing this.

Ok - Tower's description was much more eloquent and right on then mine -either way ya get the gist.

And I concur - I do NOT recomend watching it - I wasn't kidding about the nightmares - it's just something I didn't need to hear/see.

That might give me nightmares. My chest is tight now just from watching that. Very very disturbing. Oh my god that day was just so sad; it is still unbelievable to me that that happened.



PS if i had read the description first I would not have watched it......

David, can you change your initial post to add a description? I would not have watched that if I had known what it was. I appreciate you posting it, but some people may have a hard time with it.

Remember when hostage Nick Berg(wasn't that his name?) was decapitated? I watched it (like an idiot) on the internet. I was literally ILL the rest of the day.

I did also. I think because at that point I thought there was no way that it could be real.

OMG..I was actually curious about that - the dark side of me I guess - but I never watched it...and I'm so glad I never did - it would have probably haunted me.

Someone on MySpace once sent me an amusing picture and a link for a website - so I went and there were HORRID pictures on there (decapitations, shootings etc)...I've never been back but it makes me wonder - stuff like that is out there for someone--who enjoys this stuff???
