Second video of first plane on 9/11

New video has been released that depicts the first plane hitting the North Tower.

Not sure who's interested in reliving the horror of that day but ABC feels that some of us must be. They'll air the video today on "This Week." I may watch, although I don't know what I'll gain from it. More anger, more sadness? The thought that haunts me the most, and has from the beginning, is what it must have been like for the ones in the North Tower offices facing the plane as it approached. To have turned and looked out the window to see that...*shiver*

I may watch it too. The only thing I can think about is the people on those planes, especially the children. My second thoughts are the people in the towers, who merely went to work that morning. I remember when the CEO of Cantor Fitzgerald could not locate employees. I knew then that is where one of the planes went in.

I'm not sure I want to see it. I have over an hour of video I taped off tv that horrible morning, but don't ever watch it....haven't in 18 months. I have enough nightmares about airliners slamming into skyscrapers already without reliving the horror on tape. :(

Same here. I was a few minutes late tuning in, but I never heard a mention about it. Maybe some sort of legal complication came up and they had to postpone/cancel airing the tape.

I know I don't wanna see it...no desire to re-live that. Show us a tape of one of our guys catching the twisted, heartless individuals responsible for the tragic event and I'm all eyes!

I don't want to relive or see any of it! I just don't have the capacity of hate to deal with it, I am far too emotional, and is there anything wrong with just wanting to move on? Didn't think so.... :(

Jacki, I know what you mean....

After 9/11 I fell into a deep depression....suffered nightmares (when I could fall asleep). For weeks afterword, every time I saw a fire truck, I'd break down in tears....especially if it had an American flag flying from the back. I even had to pull my car to the side of the road...and even today, if I hear a fire truck's sirens and air horn blaring, it gives me cold chills...

Don't get me wrong...I'm NOT some wimp that cries much or jumps at every loud noise. I'm a big guy who isn't afraid of any man on earth. In fact, I rarely cry at funerals.

Why did 9/11 affect me so dramatically? Number one, a friend of my sister and I died in the WTC. :cry: Also, one of my cousins is a Lieutenant with the Douglas County Fire Department....so I grew up around firefighters and firehouses....why I wept when seeing a fire truck after 9/11 -- it was like losing members of my family...all those brave NYFD heroes who perished.

I'll never forget what happened, or those who perished, and I'll never forgive the horrid monsters who perpetrated such an atrocity...but I don't want to see replays of what happened that morning on tv....because I've seen it too many times in my nightmares the past two years :o :o

Moving on? Sure. Forgetting about it? Never gonna happen.

I know what you mean Perry. I was behind a Mobile Fire Rescue Unit Saturday and I saw the initials in the back window "FDNY" It gave me chills.
