New 9/11 Eyewitness Video
New 9/11 Eyewitness Video | September 12 2006

This video was released yesterday on the fifth anniversary of the attacks. Not much information is known about it at present but it obviously documents the World Trade Center attack from a nearby building. The second plane hitting the tower and the first collapse is edited out but the north tower collapse is included. Rescue efforts, including footage of a rescue helicopter is also shown.

The shocked onlookers remark their surprise that fighter jets are not in the air defending the area.

The second plane is described as a "military plane" - something the CGI theorists will enjoy - but my first reaction upon seeing the second plane video on 9/11 was also that it was a military plane - because the sight of a commercial airliner crashing into a building was unprecedented and the first presumption was that the plane was in the sky to observe the fire in the north tower and/or conduct escue efforts.

2. Spire
I remember that a lot was made of the "spire" that stood for some time after the collapse of WTC 1 and then "disappeared" or "turned to dust". There's even disagreement if the spire was comprised of interior or exterior columns.

This clip has an excellent view of the spire, although the camera is jumps around a fair amount. Sure looks to me that the spire was interior core columns, and that the entire spire fell vertically, almost as if the bottom was knocked out.
