Next thing I know I see reports about a plane flying into the building. So I run outside the back of the building and see a huge plume of black smoke. It smells awful and there is so much paper in the air, you thought you were in the middle of a ticker tape parade. After checking on my wife who also worked in the building (she shopped in the WTC at least twice a week before work), I find myself in the park (where they are holding the ceremony this morning) about 70 yards away from the south tower. Next thing I know, I see this plane come out of nowhere from behing the DBK building. The next was like a scene out of Die Hard, a loud explosion and choas everywhere...........
Wow. That must have been horrifying.
