911- The Twin Tower Distaster. While the world was watching the news, I was watching Sabrina the Teenage Witch. Since the video footage is owned by the PA and costs thousands to view, I have probably only seen the footage a maximum of 3 times. One of those being today.
As an exercise in class, we had to watch and write what we saw, rather than what we know now about the event. I found this fascinating, it enabled me to really concentrate on the events as they took place (albeit 7 years later) and draw my own conclusions as to what happened that day rather than the usual spoon fed spiel concerning the event.
Watching this video, 911 strikes me as a day of complete pandemonium, desperate people unable to control the situation with no idea what was going on. There was also a lot of dust. It also seems that no one truly knew the extent of the damage these terrorists had caused.
What were you doing on one of the most important days in our lifetime? I hope it was something more worthwhile than me.
