"On September 11, 2001, I was working at Scholastic, Inc., on Broadway and Prince Street. That morning I was on the treadmill in the company’s basement gym. The local news interrupted the “Today” show to report that a plane had crashed into the World Trade Center. I thought it might be a commuter plane, so I went to the top floor to see. I was stunned at the size of the plane protruding from the building and the black smoke. Helicopters hovering next to it looked like toys. All I could think about were the innocent people who had simply been having coffee and a bagel. A security guard watched the surreal scene with me. Then, it became more unbelievable. Another plane, in the slowest of motion, plowed into the second building. The guard and I sobbed as we saw the fire.

I felt the shockwave. The next moment I was running towards the Pentagon. I don't know why. Part of me couldn't believe it had actually happened. I could see the tail of the plane sticking out from the building covered in flames, and I knew all the people on board were dead.

WORLD TRADE CENTER TASK FORCE INTERVIEW
EMT ADOLPH SMITH
Interview Date: October 12, 2001
"MR. ECCLESTON: This interview is being
concluded at 10:35 hours. Mr. Smith is
unable to continue with this interview."
" I'm the only one on this
bridge. I'm walking across it, and then I just
remember feeling a rumble and hearing this
rumbling sound that was really intense. It
actually shook my bones"
"I thought now the facade or
something from number one was coming down,
feeling that this rumble was going on.
So I ran. I started to run across the
pedestrian bridge, and I got about halfway there
when a lot of major debris was hitting the
ground, really hitting the ground.
You can feel
it -- it shook your bones, the things hitting the
ground, the rumbling. It was extremely loud."
"I bent over to pick up the hose, and I
hear what sounded like firecrackers and a low
rumble."
"I heard the sound of a jet plane. I
looked up and saw it pretty close and I was like holy
shit. What's going on with the with the flight
patterns. All of a sudden, the wings turned and it
dove right into the building and it was screwed up."
"Shortly after that, sure enough, I heard -- I
don't know even -- I guess a rumbling sound. I looked
up and I see the whole 70th floor basically like buckle
out and start crumbling down the outside of the
building."
