•     AS IT HAPPENED ::: ANGLES SEEN ON TV NEWS AT 10:28     •

UPDATE Oct. 2010: Quality raw video has been found in the NIST Cumulus Video Database. NOTE: All entries on this webpage that are included in the NIST Cumulus database (as released by FOIA) will have the corresponding Cumulus file(s) named at the bottom of the entry (copied and pasted, minus the .avi file extension).

NewsCopter7 hovered more than 5 miles from the scene, as other choppers had been advised to do. Hear John DelGiorno report the 5 mile limitation at about 9:18 am, 10 minutes after arriving at the scene. Paul Smith (R.I.P.) of Helicopters Inc. piloted the aircraft. To learn more of these men's experience on 9/11, see their 2nd plane impact video, rarely played because it missed the plane.

New York local Channel 2 was running their GM Building camera, where The Early Show was/is produced. A recording has been available thanks to the Dr. Ebbetts DVD collection "September 11th As It Happened" (link 2 above). See one replay in the TV archive: CBS9 at 10:48 am (better quality link 1 above).

This camera didn't capture the South Tower event, apparently. As for the North Tower, there was also a missing CBS camera view: the Trump International Hotel & Tower that caught the 2nd plane hit at 1 Central Park West near the CBS Broadcast Center (at 530 W 57th St).

NIST Cumulus file: CBS2_clip42 (folder CBS_Broadcast_8-45A. No raw video available, only a broadcast recording.)

CBS9 Washington aired the first few seconds in a small, split window, then put the LIVE destruction on full screen. On CBS2 (WCBS) only the falling "spire" of remaining core columns was seen. FOX News aired the 2nd half of the shot LIVE. See it also in the TV archive 9/11 at 5:01 pm on CBS9 Washington or in higher quality on FOX5 Washington at 10:42 am.

Chopper2's angle from the south gave us a unique view of 1. the fire as it progressed [Note: see an important photo study of the suspicious fire progression -- ALSO see the full length raw NIST video] and 2. a bright gray dust cloud that emerged early, below the alleged initiation. (See Achimspok's video on the subject.)

Chopper2 was piloted by Ed Baker, with Jim Smith reporting. Hear the names mentioned during the broadcast at 9:10. WCBS reporter Joe Biermann was also aboard, according to one source.

"There you see the building imploding.... Do you see what's happening? ... This is clearly-- the way the structure is collapsing.... This was the result of something that was planned. It's not accidental that the first tower just happened to collapse and then the second tower just happened to collapse in exactly the same way. How they accomplished this we don't know. But clearly this is what they wanted to accomplish." CNBC News anchor, 10:30 am

UPDATE Oct. 2010: Thanks to new archive TV from CNBC, this angle has been moved to the LIVE category. See a more organized playlist here at the 911conspiracy.tv NBC archive.

Found in the archive.org TV archive on NBC4 Washington at 1:05 pm and 5:05 pm in identical event summary reports. Again at 6:35 pm in a similar summary (shorter view). The upper floors' descent is seen from beginning to middle only-- CNBC has the full shot. See the South Tower "collapse" from this angle in a VHS tape posted on YouTube... and on CNBC.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WNBC Dub9_17 (also see NBC Atlanta4 21) Best, see 911datasets.org release 25, 42A0096 - G25D6.

CNN was using WNYW Chopper5 feed for the first two seconds of the "collapse." The shot then faded to this CNN camera at 5 Penn Plaza (their New York headquarters, with 2 or 3 cameras - see below), the view zoomed closest. Download the LIVE mpeg2. In the strange case of the South Tower footage - which missed it LIVE but did in fact capture it - the station didn't broadcast it until the middle of the night.

The WTC 1 LIVE shots changed 3 times: 1) After 2 seconds from WNYW Chopper5, 2) after 4 seconds of the zoom, the 5 Penn Plaza wide shot faded in, 3) After 5 seconds of that stationary angle, this closeup angle faded back in, while the camera zoomed out. To see this particular zoomed shot without fading out and back in, see CBC Newsworld LIVE (Canada). Notice CBC attributes the shot to WABC, as does this unknown broadcast. Hectic times, I suppose.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: CNN Dub5 15 (missing last seconds of core remnant falling) -- also NIST FOIA release 10, WTCI-329-I-#25 (watch)

Download continuous replay in high quality (69.2MB avi with WTC 2 airing). CNN had their stationary camera at 5 Penn Plaza (their New York headquarters) up and running early that morning. But no video of the 1st plane surfaced. See a clip from this news compilation from 8:00 am on the Ebbetts DVD "As It Happened."

LIVE coverage details can be found above-- under "CNN View 1."

Raw NIST Cumulus file: CNN Dub5 14 (full - YT link above)

ABOUT THIS LIST: Only views showing the tower descending for at least two seconds will be listed, with the exception of Jules Naudet's shot from the famous documentary "9/11." For example, the WNYW View 2: CBS "Blue Angle" aired only the last seconds of the building core "spire" falling. That still counts as a LIVE view.

More complete replays of LIVE shots are included where available. Downloads are available mostly in mpeg2, which can be played for free using VirtualDub Mpeg2 (the tool used to convert many of the versions uploaded to YouTube - see my channel WTCdemolitions).

This angle was seen for the first one second of the WTC 1 event on NY Channel 4. It was LIVE on MSNBC for the last seconds of the disaster, between the [FOX LIVE] NBC West St. view and the NBC GE Building cam, the latter of which only showed dust. Throughout the day, the NBC network broadcast bits of the shot, which I had to piece together to create a complete version (link 3 above [UPDATE: Quality recording newly available Oct. 2010. Link to come.]).

The LIVE broadcast was made available online at today.msnbc.msn.com, as well as on TV for the 6 year anniversary. It replayed (for example) at 1:21, 2:52 and 6:34 pm on 9/11 (the versions I pieced together).

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WNBC Dub6 22, NBC Atlanta3 28

"9/11 Television 1 of 12" was uploaded by MSTS1. The Boston VHS tape is important not because of this footage, but because only MSNBC used the FAA-approved software called Flight Explorer online, displaying the constantly-updated information from the skies on air LIVE before 10:28 am... AND this industry standard application showed UA Flight 175 - alleged to have hit the South Tower at 9:02:54 am - IN THE AIR, STILL! Ongoing research by Seatnineb looks at this in depth.

A similar view without camera motion aired later in the day, at 12:41 pm. See below, "NBC Northwest Distant."

WNBC's Joe Avellar broadcast LIVE minutes before the event, interviewing WTC survivors. The camera angle is seen again in that linked clip at 6:12 vrt, for a few seconds. His camera showed us the devastating action LIVE while reports came from the studio.

Avellar gives his location in SoHo as "Prince and Wooster St." six minutes before the "collapse." He didn't go far before training the camera on the WTC.

Also see 911datasets.org release 25, folder 42A0099 - G25D9 at 25:12 of joined VOB files/DVD for a high quality, raw version. Watch with resolution/color enhanced.

Hear audio of the event. Behind the voices it's a muffled roar. NBC's Walter Perez was nearby, but this seems to be Pat Dawson's crew, who was set up to the left of Perez, across the street. Both had the white pedestrian bridge in view (see Google map). Also, MSNBC cut to Perez seconds after the disaster. Only recently has the NBC network coverage (and raw video) become available. The more familiar D.C. archive was running local coverage at the time.

The shot was also seen LIVE on UK's ITV. Not aired LIVE on NBC4 Washington, nor in the WNBC NY. However, the shot did air LIVE on FOX5 Washington - missing the first few seconds-- and on KTTV FOX11 Los Angeles, the FOX5 WNYW flagship's sister station.

Ongoing research has been using this video to determine a proof for demolition, in that the antenna began to drop first. The collapse initiated in the core.

The national FOX News broadcast used CBS Chopper2. In the street (near Church and Murray), FOX News reporter Rick Levanthal says he can see the top of the building, but we can't because of the glare caused by the dust.

NIST Cumulus files: CBS-Net Dub7 22 (Note NBC's Pat Dawson is heard at the end of the clip right beside the camera. Another example of a "CBS-Net Dub" of NBC footage is the leaning WTC 7 video.), NBC_News Dub from Jim Remberg\NBC News Dub_clip28 (with news banner)

The video can be seen, along with many other 9/11 clips, at the NY1 website. The camera is located on the Empire State Building near the 80th floor, very near the WB11 (WPIX) Metrocam that shared its view with WNYW, WABC, and more. NY1 didn't share.

A NIST FOIA file including the North Tower footage hasn't been found, despite extended footage of the WTC 2 plane crash, fire, and collapse.

Rare west side angle, a wide shot in comparison with the nearby WNYW FOX Chopper5 (see below). Air11 pilot: Ray Rivera. Reporter: Melinda Murphy (won an Emmy for breaking news 9/11). Camera: Chet Wilson and Brenda Banon (training as photographer). The LIVE WB11 footage features shots from both Chopper 11 - aka "Air11" - and WCBS Chopper2. The WB11 Empire State Building camera also captured the action, but only broadcast LIVE for a moment-- as the dust cloud rose. See details below under Network Views.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WPIX Dub4 17 (YT link 3 above) Better still is the 911datasets.org release 25 mpeg-2 in folder 42A0111 - G25D21.

Chopper5 missed the South Tower "collapse," but not the 2nd plane impact. Reporter/camera operator Kai Simonsen was ready for the 2nd demolition. Much of America was expecting it. After all, the towers were "twins."

CNN aired the shot live for a couple seconds before switching to their network camera(s). They showed the whole thing at 11:33 am.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WNYW DUB5 19 (incomplete - no initiation, or first half for that matter: should have been between 16 and 17) -- See release 10 for an afternoon broadcast that included the full shot around 12:05 pm... among other rarities.

UPDATE: With NIST FOIA 911datasets.org release 27, 42A0239 - G26D114 (clip), we can see the initiation full screen.

After Chopper5 this shot was used LIVE only for a few seconds of the building core (aka "spire") standing. Then the view changed to the CNN movable view. The "blue" cam caught the 2nd plane LIVE on CBS... hence the name. See all the 2nd plane impacts now, or jump to the YouTube clip of the full CBS LIVE plane crash. This view of the WTC 2 "collapse" was played on CBS in more complete form, however rarely. As seen at link 2 above, a small split window displays the scene.

NIST Cumulus file is partial: CNN Dub5 13 (only spire falling)

This shot was only broadcast LIVE on WNYW's sister station in Los Angeles, KTTV FOX Channel 11 (link 1 above, final seconds only). Veteran reporter Dick Oliver and his cameraman were set up in front of the car wash at 124 Ave of the Americas, since before the 1st collapse. The camera shakes like in the non-TV "amateur" Sauret footage, but both occurences appear to be the fault of the camera operator.

WNYW's "Ollie" was in lower Manhattan with the camera lying on the ground recording, when the 1st plane hit. He brought us the first report on TV, while WCBS-AM traffic chopper 880 was reporting from the sky on the radio... a few minutes later broadcasting video only for ABC.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WNYW Dub 4 06 (also the last file in the WNYW Broadcast folder and "KTVT-LA Fox clip_62" in the misspelled KTTV folder-- watch). UPDATE: See release 10 where rare afternoon coverage replays the event in WTCI-329-I-#12.wmv (watch).

Audio of the event is included, but not initiation. John Chow operated the camera, according to Hoffer in the broadcast excerpt (link 2 above at 5:24 - download avi). The clip aired nationwide at 11:45 am, for example. The horrible action is obscured by the pedestrian bridge crossing West Street to the high school. See the Jim Hoffer report on abclocal.go.com.

One of few moments to turn a smile that day occured during Jim's escape from the destruction, when a civilian youth "flipped off" the camera! (i.e. gave the middle finger)

Raw NIST Cumulus file: ABC Dub3 41

Cameraman Glen Mayrose stands beside Joe in one report describing the earthquake rumbling below as the South Tower began to come down. The North Tower footage aired nationwide 9/11 on ABC at 7:06 pm, for example. Notably, a Port Authority engineer was being interviewed, talking about the strength and stability of the towers. Also see the Torres report on abclocal.go.com.

NIST Cumulus file: ABC Dub5 21

Replayed many times across networks. Aired nationwide at 11:42 am, for example. Shot from the West Side Highway just north of Canal St, according to Michelle minutes before the South Tower demolition on WABC. She and her crew hadn't moved since then.

One interesting version appeared in the 9/11 Truth documentary/news & video footage compilation called "9/11 Revisited: Were explosives used?" (2009). Find high quality downloads at archive.org. The North Tower footage is in version 2 of the film, at about 19:30 vrt. I'm not sure of the source for the audio when a woman voice over says the destruction sounded like the fireworks finale on the 4th of July.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: ABC Dub3 38

Features a spectacular view of the "spire" of core columns before it fell straight down. (See also non-TV amateurs Veoh Anon. & NY Center of the World, for example.). This camera was a few feet to the right and behind the perspective seen on TV repeatedly (listed above). This shot aired 9/11 at 11:39 and 11:58 pm somewhere (not Eastern Standard Time in NY, and not in the AM -- I've checked) on ABC, according to this clip from femr2 and this one from Xenomorph911WTC. Other clips available with this time stamp have come from the Nashville, Tennessee Vanderbilt University Television News Archive, which rents tapes for $200.00US.

Se e the clip also in TLC's 2005 "Flight 175: As the World Watched," which was produced by ABC.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: ABC Dub3 46 (see a crisp image of the spire - new video is link 3 above)

The footage aired 9/11 on ABC at 12:42 pm and at 7:10 pm. A female with an ABC microphone says that the second building has just come down. The Woolworth Building obscures the view, after the automatic light meter in the camera adjusts to the brightness of the sky.

Nina places herself at City Hall - (31 Chambers St.) - about 10 minutes before the North Tower event. She was on the phone on the air up to 7 minutes before the disaster, and when the tower comes down, the studio anchor says she is only a few blocks away. Other female WABC reporters included Lauren Glassberg (who was at St. Vincents) and Stacey Sager-- see the ABC 9/11 video page.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: ABC Dub3 43

See Burkett's report on abclocal.go.com. Marty Glembotzky was the camera operator (see In Memoriam: New York City 9/11/01..." (HBO, 2002) at 27:30 vrt). The scene begins with NYPD telling N.J. that the North Tower is leaning. That is why they were pulling people out of the area, N.J. learns... 20 seconds beforehand. This went out over NYPD radio at about 10:20 am (see NISTNCSTAR 1-8, p. 91/294), but due to the lack of FDNY radio interoperability, firefighters didn't get the advance knowledge. The fire dept. had the same radios that malfunctioned during the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. When replaced in a $14 million no-bid contract by Motorola (Feb. 2001), the new radios failed. The new radios had to be taken out of service in March... and replaced. Was this part of the conspiracy, to ensure death of American heroes?

Raw NIST Cumulus file: WABC Dub1 101 -- also seen as "BBC_clip119" in less quality ... The NIST Cumulus folder was named "BBC Horizon - The Fall of the World Trade Center" -- a 2002 documentary similar to PBS/NOVA's "Why the Towers Fell." (Jan. 2012 merged here with a duplicate listing here. Thanks, Aldwinn.)

UPDATE: Short clip found in the TV archive on GLVSN at 10:47 pm. Also see some Japanese news excerpts here, recently matched with this video and merged with a duplicate in this list (thanks, MrKoenig.) ABC network airings have not been found.

Shot from the steps of the pedestrian bridge, partially through a telephoto lens, catching the core remnant (aka spire) from the western stairs of the pedestrian bridge, where at the end of the clip the dust cloud moves ominously. That view of the cloud was part of an important ABC report by Robert Krulwich on 9/13 at 7:35 pm, titled by 11septembervideos "WTC Dust Contains Steel," and by ABC: "Health Risks."

This clip aired 9/11 at an unknown time on WNYW FOX5 (full broadcast at 9/11 TV archive 2, see"afternoon" news pt. 2). Available for viewing on the AP Archive website (or link 2 above), with a source listed as either APTN (AP Television News) or ABC (in part 11 and 13). Also the order of listed sources (or rights management) matches the order in which they appeared.

Download HD divx avi (37MB) thanks to Xenomorph911WTC, who also found a lower resolution version in a "German n-tv 9/11 news broadcast." UPDATE: Stabilized high quality version uploaded by Xeno July 2011, from "Loose Change Final Cut."

No NIST file found. See the similar angle NIST WNBC Dub4A 29 below.

Unaired? After the zoom in, it looks very similar to the shot listed above. Unfortunately, the AP Archive files are not of the best quality. The mpeg2 clips look washed out and altered, in addition to the AP stamp, run time box, and story number box. Find download link in YouTube description, with more footage including the WTC7 demolition.

Note that there is another APTN shot of the 2nd "collapse" from nearby not listed here because buildings block the view of all but the dust/debris cloud.

No NIST file has been found. See instead the similar angle NIST WNBC Dub4A 29 below.

Aired at 3:34 and again at 3:38 pm on 9/11, eastern standard time. Moments before the event, Steve describes a big explosion low in one of the towers (in 3:38 airing). He had no idea what could have caused that. To investigate this claim further, see the WTC demolitions playlists.

UPDATE Oct. 2010: Extended beginning found thanks to the NIST FOIA (link 2 above. file name below.) The initiation is missed, but the action slicing the west side faster than freefall is captured with a 2x zoom lens extender removed just before the BBC Motion Gallery version starts!

I haven't found this clip in the TV archive at archive.org, but it is most likely a Network angle due to the tripod and lens extender. Considering that it's one of about 25 views from the West Side Highway (West St.), it doesn't stand out.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: CBS-Net Dub3 38 (see also release 25 for HQ mpeg-2 extended version with gunshots, also heard in the NIST/Richard Peskin video and WNBC/PAX-TV West St. shots)

High quality versions now available thanks to the International Center for 9/11 Studies NIST FOIA, released in torrent form at 911datasets.org. Watch also in "Ground Zero Underworld," (UK Ch.4, 2007) more than once. The media had lined up on West St./the West Side Highway (you will notice). Byron Pitts presented the summary for CBS Evening News, during which this particular shot was the one used to show the North Tower event. Watch at the TV archive site and notice the edit. The 4:59 pm airing with an extra second reveals the zipper of explosions rapidly moving down the west face. (See "Acceleration + Serendipity" by DavidChandler911.)

Raw NIST Cumulus files: CBS-Net_Dub4 32 and CBS-Net Dub6 04 (29 seconds longer, of equal quality)

Previously "Dust Cloud Closeup." UPDATE: Camera operator Mark LaGanga was named in the NIST FOIA, release 25, folder 42A0120 - G25D31 (Watch in full now), which features extended tape from CBS going into WTC Building 7 between collapses. As WTC 1 "falls" LaGanga doesn't budge— as people run for their lives! Somebody is knocked to the ground by the force of the wind, just before pebbles hit the camera lens and all becomes black. The camera lens is too dusty to see detail of the "collapse" initiation.

Aired in full 9/11 on CBS at 12:58 pm and on FOX at 10:02 pm. This shot has often been replayed starting after the building begins to crumble, as/after the camera operator wipes the lens clean. Other popular, aired moments from Mark's tape include 1. the old guy in the dust who says, "It collapsed. The top floors collapsed down. I saw it blow and then ran like hell. Thank God. I'm 69 but I can still run." and 2. the Secret Service agent (title: OST, name: Bennette) inside dusty, evacuated WTC7 as the alarm sounds, before the WTC1 "collapse" and 3. THE best shot of WTC3 (Marriott) before WTC1 collapse - U TURN sign, Marriott crushed, debris, looks up at WTC1, smashed ambulance on its side; and 4. Interview with man in blue shirt with shoulder bag who helped carry a woman in a wheelchair down stairs from floor 68 - Mike Benfante - worked at Network Plus communications company on 81st floor of 1 WTC... where the bathroom was blown out he says. Hmmm.

UPDATE Sept. 2010: New archive TV from CNBC is available. See a more organized playlist here at the 911conspiracy.tv NBC archive. However, I haven't found the clip air time yet-- only the two sources above. I think this is this a network camera because 1. The media was lined up on West St. and 2. CNBC seemed to air only network shots.

Partial view of the descent. One of many many views from the West Side Highway (West St.), including another Japanese camera (assumed) next on this list. This one gives us a look at a news cameraman in the foreground who turns and begins to run! See that camera's view (ITN Clip 77 of 82, below).

Download avi including 2 above FNN shots and other 9/11 footage from Japan, including shots with audio rarely seen. I can't be sure the network is FNN, but the title of the download file suggests it is.

The female reporter seen briefly isn't given the opportunity to speak... or she was edited out to concentrate on the spectacular and terrifying footage. Which, by the way, we have seen so many times now that the overall effect has either numbed us or made us more aware of the deception.

See "FOX Report" anchor Shepard Smith on the roof of the FOX News building at 1211 Avenue of the Americas ... the camera location ... as he talks to witnesses, one of whom describes explosion sounds that traveled a great distance. The shot aired, for example, at 9:28 pm on 9/11.

Copyright FOX News at the itnsource.com stock footage site, clip 12 of 26. I haven't found it in the TV archive at archive.org. Only recently on September 11, 2009 was it seen on FOX News in "9/11: Timeline of Terror."

Note that the audio in the clip was from FOX reporter Rick Levanthal on Church St (at Murray St., where the "Flight 175" starboard engine landed). Levanthal's camera only saw a glare in the sky.

Blanca Rosa Vilchez and camera operator Miguel M. Pinzon were very close to the scene during the WTC 2 collapse. The footage playing right after that must be their WTC 1 shot from further back on West Street. Watch at the TV archive now, which only became available in late 2011.

If you know Spanish, please help translate the reporter and cameraman's stories for me and leave comments on the YouTube video.

Matt Meagher reports on the scene. Brad Waite, cameraman ("Waite's camera work earned him and his crew the only national Emmy nomination given that year to photography.") This rare news clip is worth watching just to see yet another witness to the explosion in the lobby just before the first plane hit. Learn all about that event not properly documented by NIST at the Loose Change forum.

The camera view is similar to CBS Mark LaGanga, also dangerously close.

Seen internationally, courtesy of ITN/Reuters. On BBC Newsnight (link 3 above) the shot comes after NBC West St. (FOX LIVE) view. In the itnsource.com stock footage compilation it is clip 77 of 82. I haven't found it in the TV archive at archive.org.

Aired on NBC4 Washington on 9/11 at 12:41 pm. While this isn't confirmed as a "network view," NBC was known for its "SkyCam network" of easily accessible cameras. See this image for example-- an angle without a matching video on record (no 2nd plane video, either - source).

On March 8, 1996, WNBC unveiled the first-of-its-kind Skycam Network consisting of high resolution, remote controlled cameras perched at key points of interest across the Tri-State area. The Skycam Network is in operation 24 hours a day and features 24 cameras. The state-of-the-art Skycam Network is an investment in WNBC's overall coverage of the Tri-State area and is used in all local newscasts. Since its debut, the station has used the Skycam Network to highlight traffic situations; check on Newark, LaGuardia and Kennedy airports; present live pictures of developing weather situations; and, capture breaking news stories.... - http://www.telemundo47.com/station/1169359/detail.html

The South Tower from this view aired LIVE and played much more often that day (on NBC4 Washington, at least). The camera was on top of the 70-story GE Building at 30 Rockefeller Center, which became an observation deck/tourist attraction - "Top of the Rock" - in 2005. The building is home to most of NBC's New York studios.

Notice the skewed, leaning view. Hear anchor Matt Lauer be prompted to say the towers WERE leaning. At 9:07 am! (NYPD reported the North Tower was leaning at 10:20 am. See above, ABC7 Reporter N.J. Burkett.)

NIST Cumulus file: WNBC Dub4A 24 (low quality)

Correction: This I thought to be Pat Dawson's crew, but the LIVE shot above has been proven to be. ... The HQ in the title stands for high quality. This video, as Achimspok notes, "helps to prove all theories." Downloadable HQ NBC archive clip as WTC1_NW_Corner.avi, with repeated zooms, thanks to Xenomorph911WTC. He also made an HD version, perhaps from the PBS documentary version (link 2 above). The clip appeared in the 2006 History doc "American Vesuvius," as seen on YouTube here with NBC replays (WTC compared to volcano).

NBC did use the clip exclusively, for example, at 10:24 pm on 9/11. On 9/12 the NBC "Attack on America" graphic used it, at 6:30 pm.... The clip can also be found on the BBC Motion Gallery stock footage site.

New Sept. 2011 with the release of the expanded 9/11 TV archive at archive.org, featuring broadcasts from around the world up through September 17th. New to this list Jan. 2012. During the initiation of collapse, the camera was zooming in on the antenna, shaking somewhat. Still it's powerful video. (Also notice the collapse was missed LIVE, as a clear, elevated north view turned to studio commentary for 2 minutes! No replay from that view, either.)

The view is exclusive to NHK Japan. It aired on 9/11 many times, as early as noon, EDT (full length, pixelated pre-initiation, no audio) . See also 12:51 p.m. (text over tower, extended length with audio), 1:26 p.m. (no text, but not full screen), 2:59 p.m. (text over tower, extended length), and 5:00 p.m. (no text, full screen, clipped short), for examples. FYI, there is no NIST Cumulus file, only the 640x480 mp4s on archive.org.

The video can be seen, along with many other 9/11 clips, at the NY1 website. About one minute before the collapse, the reporter and camera can be seen in the 2008 History Channel program "102 Minutes That Changed America."

Update: Jeff Scarborough, WNBC camera operator. Full length aftermath features gunshots! Yes, gunshots... to break windows and escape the savage dust and debris clouds. Thanks to jonfromqueens for uploading this rare afternoon TV segment May 7, 2010 (link 2 above). It was first found in a bulk download with no audio and the "PAX" NBC logo (link dead).

Could very well be the missing view from Walter Perez of WNBC. Watch him on NBC Channel 4 moments after the collapse, from very near another NBC crew (Pat Dawson), whose shot was aired LIVE and replayed often, unlike this rare clip. Here it is on the Thought Equity stock footage site.

UPDATE: Moved/renamed from "Unknown West St. Partial" upon discovery in the WCBS Channel 2 broadcast at 4:44 p.m. and 5:13 p.m (thanks to user 911Clips). You'll notice that many others filmed the event from West St./West Side Hwy. This camera was also one of several to capture the south tower west side falling into the street from very close.

Very close to several news cameras. See FNN Japan West St. above and West St. Unknown 2, for example. It seems like there were more cameras on this street than there were people!

The source is unknown. Thanks 911allcausticcamera for uploading.

As seen from the Empire State Building... called Metrocam by the news presenters. This camera was shared by WABC and WNYW from the start of the day's coverage, but WB11 aired the 2nd plane impact from this angle LIVE. Side note: See the new WPIX 9/11 memorial page now.

YougeneDebs used trig to discover the WB11 view "seems to be on the western half of the ESB at about the 88th storey. Notice the Staten Island shore line and structures there behind One Liberty Plaza, the old U.S. Steel building, the black building just to the left of center-frame for an estimate of the height of the perspective."

No NIST Cumulus (release 14) files were provided (in the FOIA folder WPIX NIST DUB #1, the last clip, 109, ends before the event). The same was true for the WNYW Chopper5 footage. The 9/11 TV broadcast continually replayed the footage halfway, often with a meddlesome banner of text reading "TERRORIST ATTACK." See also 911datasets.org NIST FOIA release 28, 42A0304 - G28D9 for a poor resolution 352x480 (width by height) broadcast running into late afternoon/evening (at my TV archive 2, corrected) and 42A0289 - G27D19 for a high quality TV broadcast from appx. 10:05 - 10:45 A.M.

Collapse explained on BBC at 1:43 pm AND at 2:10 pm AND at 3:08 pm on 9/11 in repeat airings. See it in the TV archive now. It's good for a laugh— a quick explanation that the exterior columns supported most of the weight, so the buildings were done for... now here's Tom with the weather. Not exact words, but you get the idea.

Note that the shot aired full screen on BBC 9/11 at 2:52 pm and on 9/12 at 12:08 am, for example. It also appears in the 2005 TLC/ABC Productions documentary "Flight 175: As the World Watched." See it in the mainstream documentaries playlist to learn more about the second plane story.

(See Craig Braden Angle 2 below under non-TV.) Aired on FOX 9/11 at 9:51 pm, with a shot of the 1st "collapse." Another appearance of this clip was in the History website clip "Collapse of the North Tower" at 3:45 of 4:27 (YT link 2 above).

An important video study by Achimspok shows that the conventional "piston theory" explaining the west side dust jet (explosive ejecta about floor 78) IS INDISPUTABLY FALSE. If air pressure from collapsing floors didn't cause the explosion, then what did? Answer [not according to NIST]: the falling core.

See the new 9/11 TV archive site in high quality. Or see a collection of 9/14 TV archive clips. See file number 3 at vrt 35:27. The list of broadcasts from 9/14 includes also CBC (Canada), BBC World, and more. Additional CBS news from that day can be seen on the DVD-with-book "What We Saw" (CBS News, 2002... sorry no link). It rained in New York City that day, Friday. The images of terror slowed down (having sufficiently numbed the populace) and grief began to sink in, as seen on TV. Bush declared it a day of prayer and rememberance. Church services seemed to bless the coming "War on Terror." Dissent from the patriotic consensus became sacrilege.

Watch at the new TV archive site. The WTC 2 shot seen in the same clip is more interesting. The discussion during the clip concerns skyscraper integrity, but nothing specific to the towers. This particular angle is almost the same as killtheartist1 below, and similar to the above BBC NE View 9-12.

Clifton captured the 2nd plane impact and both "collapses" with his videocamera. Also, untelevised amateur Devin Clark and TV amateur Chris Hopewell caught all 3 events. Network cameras that did that include the CBS "Blue Angle" view, CNN 5 Penn Plaza (one of 2 cameras), NBC GE Bldg. (leaning cam), WPIX Metrocam, and NY1 ESB cam. The footage linked above comes from an interview on NBC 9/12 at 11:50 am.

Davis is credited as working with BNN in the 2002 HBO program "In Memoriam: New York City 9/11/01." (see full docu. here) BNNtv more or less became CameraPlanet.

Lucia Davis filmed the controversial explosion audio near WTC 7... around 11:15 am (see details). For more on WTC7 explosions, see "WTC7 in 7 Minutes" -- which includes witness accounts of Barry Jennings, Michael Hess and NYC Office of Emergency Management's (OEM) Richard Rotanz.

This North Tower footage is available in mpeg2 DVD quality from the 2002 CameraPlanet production "America 911." (See YT link 2 above.)

Clear views from the west are rare. This one adds some insight. Femr2 point out that the video "[s]hows yet another part of the cap disintegration...watch the fire near the south west corner...as the cap tilts, it *splits* into two halves which go in separate directions." Yet, it may be smoke blocking the line of sight to the fireball. Still, the cap - or top - of the building that supposedly acted like a pile driver, crushing the lower floors... was itself being destroyed from the instant of initiation.

Suspicious minds may think this has something to do with the apparent explosive flashes on the west face (Frame 1154 [or 2308 in doubled frame rate] of the NIST version, for example) .. flashes that are more likely attributable to camera tape static or glass shards reflecting light.

Xenomorph911WTC uploaded a rare segment of CBS coverage featuring the full length footage in good quality. The angle also appeared briefly in the famous Naudet documentary. The angle's old name Tinacart comes from the YouTube channel tinacart, which features the famous 2nd plane impact footage from the same angle. The footage aired, for example, at 7:00 pm on 9/11 CBS.

The point of perspective was 475 Kent Ave, Williamsburg, as the camera operator's address shows. While the 2nd plane hit was shot from inside behind a window, this shot was taken after moving the camera outside, I believe. Coincidentally, one of the many other people/cameras known to have photographed the plane (31) or videotaped it (59 total), Robert Clark, was also there... as was 1st plane hit photographer Wolfgang Staehle.

Raw NIST Cumulus file: CBS-Net Dub1 05 (watch on YT) -- see also 911datasets.org release 25, 42A0098 - G25D8, at vrt 18:30 (YT link 1 above).

An American flag. I'm surprised this angle didn't get more attention... although the edit takes away from the shot. It may be a network camera. Also found as an mpeg1 with other news from 9/11... at archive.org in the impact collection, specifically in this video file.

NIST Cumulus file: NBC Atlanta4 70 (69 is pre-collapse, also repeat air in files 80-81)

A more complete version was made with joined clips from two segments found in rare news coverage posted by September11thArchive, who has unfortunately closed his/her YouTube account.

Aired on CNN at an unknown time (see link 1). Professional quality. His shot features the earth apparently shaking ~10 seconds before the "collapse." Comparing other videos finds no verification of the phenomenon (see for instance Rick Siegel 911 Eyewitness Hoboken compared). Camera location at 145 Ave of the Americas was about 1.54km away, and considering the time it takes for seismic waves to travel ("surface waves" (?) being half as fast as primary waves, or sound waves... the speed of sound through granite is 5,000 m/s), the shake would have taken about a second to travel to Sauret's camera.

To use his video as proof of demolition (or at least to prove NIST lied in their exterior column failure claim), analysis of the slow motion video shows the antenna dropped first. The collapse initiated inside the core.

The acclaimed Sauret documentary is titled "WTC: The First 24 Hours." Scenes from the film were featured in the famous Naudet documentary "9/11," among many others. The footage of Ground Zero, empty and quiet, is particularly striking. The DVD is really 2 films, one artistically short and one extended.

NIST Cumulus file: CNN Dub 6 02 (see also in low quality in the folder "Etienne Sauret - WTC The First 24 Hours" - or decent quality in "CBS Naudet\Naudet 2 clip_13") UPDATE: Release 10 has a good quality 28-minute wmv file (640x480 px) as file CNN\WTCI-329-I-#6.

UPDATE: Moved from untelevised amateurs once found in the NIST FOIA release 27, folder 42A0215 - G26D75 (The FOX5 Atlanta report was replayed 9/12 morning - see 42A0221 - G26D89). More interesting than the footage is the opinion of Trade Center historian/author Eric Darton, who noted that the towers "sort of imploded."

The clip was discovered by Beatprophet with the SWM logo, not on FOX, but the vid has since been made private. At the pumpitout forum YougeneDebs located the camera perspective near here. MrKoenig found an immense photograph from a similar vantage point... near parking lots that are now 9 years later the skyscraper HQ for Goldman Sachs.

Found on YouTube channel 911Clips during the Channel 2 broadcast at 10:21 p.m. "A rare shot from CBSNewYork.com," says prolific YouTube uploader IranContraScumDid911, who shared the video on Oct. 7, 2011 (YT link above). After searching that website I could find no coverage from 9/11, but perhaps it was a temporary feature during the recent 10th anniversary.

Found on YouTube channel 911Clips during the Channel 2 broadcast at 10:48 p.m., minutes after a report that a truck full of explosives had been stopped... notice a banner reads "Explosives found under the GW Bridge," when reports only spoke of a van/truck stopped in Jersey. Watch compiled reports across networks. Was this the same van driven by the 5 "dancing Israelis?"

New Sept. 6, 2011 as posted by YouTuber/videographer bkaye who said: "This is footage I shot on 9/11/2001. It was from 14th Street and 6th Avenue. Note about 3:49 seconds in, Bernard Goetz, who lives in the neighborhood."

Handheld view from the street far away. Still the entire collapse was well captured. The crowd doesn't react much, perhaps due to the distance... and numbness. Audio may not be synched. Found by researcher 911allcausticcamera and thus added to this archive.

Uploaded to Revver 9/11/2006, with a suspicious edit during the plane impact. It could just be that the recording was stopped for a minute... bad timing... as with the South Tower's "collapse." BUT what about the edit during the North Tower demolition? Why? Then there's the fascinating comment (by Bri?) about the jetliner being a "military plane." Crazy day.

Thanks Bob and Bri for uploading your video.

New Sept. 13, 2011 as posted by WagnerCollegeNYC, who said: "This short documentary, posted on our YouTube channel by permission, was produced by Buzzell from the video footage he shot that day from Harbor View Hall." That's in Staten Island. WTC2 falling was also captured partially... and set to ambient music for YT.

No version with the initiation is available. Newly found in the NIST Cumulus FOIA, yet not exclusive to that. See Craig Braden Angle 1 in TV amateur views above, although Craig isn't an amateur. He's a pro, but not a network camera (or cameras plural... I don't know how he operated two at the same time with adjustments being made to both simultaneously). See the two angles shot by Craig in his demo reel at 5:10... with many celebrities and world events. The video link above is from that, not NIST.

ABOUT THIS LIST: The CameraPlanet Archive has collected 500 or so hours of 9/11 footage (says NY Times), but the Archive does not necessarily own the rights to all of it. A few of the camera angles titled "CameraPlanet..." below have been matched with a videographer's name. Still, the videos will appear in this list alphabetically under "C," to provide a consolidated collection of North Tower "collapse" videos from "the Archive." Note that televised amateur Lucia Davis is excuded from this portion of the list.

Criticism aside (below, really), thanks are in order to CameraPlanet for their valuable work. THANKS!

Shot from an East Village apartment. Cynthia's artistic WTC photos poster gives a beautiful, extended time lapse of the World Trade Center's life and disappearance. National Geographic (and CameraPlanet) featured her footage of the North Tower destruction in the bonus program "Witness 9/11," in the DVD documentary set titled "Inside 9/11" (2006). Cynthia nearly captured the 2nd plane impact on film, but was setting up her tripod.

We hear the name Brian mentioned in the vehicle... and one Brian Tunney is on cameraplanet.com where we can read the camera owner's story: "... Rushed downtown from 30th Street to lower Manhattan (Church Street) while filming. Left the van on the street. Hopped out with the camera and went looking for Matt. Filmed first collapse. Found Matt running uptown. Hopped in van, passed camera to Matt, who filmed out the window while the second tower stood alone and then collapsed." The high quality link 2 above comes from the 9/11 Truth documentary/news & video footage compilation "9/11 Revisited: Were explosives used?" (2009). Find high quality downloads at archive.org. This particular clip is in version 2 of the film, at 19:57 vrt.

Titled "hl_2nd_tower_coll_" with little effort for quality archiving. Several clips titled "HL..." appear in the CameraPlanetArchive YouTube channel, hiding the identity of the videographer. The full length documentary "7 Days in September" (no video link available?) provides the name Harry Lapham. See him in this brief interview clip, less than 20 seconds long like many of the videos posted by "the archive."

UPDATE: New, better quality version available at the 9/11 Memorial website. [Jan. 2012, dead link now]

Uploaded by 911allcausticcamera from a compilation sample reel released some years ago. Also, see the South Tower collapse from this angle.

UPDATE: New extended version available at the 9/11 Memorial website [Jan. 2012 dead link but ripped as YT link 4 above] -- with audio, including a notable comment from a bystander: "That's a f__ing bomb."

Best quality (abbreviated length) found in "Rudy" docudrama, which included also the Pollard CameraPlanet shot from Trinity Church (download mpeg2). Uploaded twice on YouTube channel CameraPlanetArchive (see links 1 & 3 above). Also found on an older sample reel titled "Collapse of North Tower." The latest sample reel is less specialized. It's an all-events-in-one production, complete with the distracting timer and CameraPlanet logo, which is now centered higher... to the increased detriment of the footage, of course. For CameraPlanet's collections of short, over-compressed, and disorganized 9/11 video clips, also visit thecameraplanetarchive.magnify.net, sept11.magnify.net or video.google.com/911anniversary.html.

Video owner's name found at thecameraplanetarchive.magnify.net/.... South Tower collapse was completely missed, while the second collapse only featured the spire falling behind WTC Building 7. The dust cloud starred in both shots of this 2-minute video. A shorter clip is also on the CameraPlanetArchive YouTube channel (YT link above). The footage was aired in the 2002 PBS/NOVA documentary "Why the Towers Fell" (at 43:15).

Seen from Jersey City, the tower started to crumble before the camera was set up. Best version in Nat'l Geographic's "Inside 9/11" DVD bonus program (2006) "Witness 9/11," which was produced by CameraPlanet. See Ted discussing the day. Parts of the same interview are on the CameraPlanetArchive YouTube channel, most not much longer than 5 seconds long.

Posted to YouTube by user reflectingpool Oct. 26, 2007 as "WTC North Tower Collapse New Footage," with zoomed replay.

UPDATE Sept. 2010: The videographer has put together a short documentary with narration: "THE VIEW FROM SUMMIT AVE- Never before seen 9/11 documentary footage." Additional footage before the South Tower event from this Jersey angle was included in "7 Days in September" (CameraPlanet, 2002) with narration by Rob Santana, the camera operator. It was his birthday.

Named December 2011 after finding the February 2011 upload at http://thecameraplanetarchive.magnify.net/... (at 3:11 into video). Previous CameraPlanet compilations have not included the collapse sequence, only the women's reactions. However, the video is on the CameraPlanetArchive YouTube channel (YT link 1 above).

Originally found on Devin's website bodyatomic.com— see archived videos page, where his 8 minute "What I Saw From My Window" is NOT available. (download .mov here) Devin's video is also "United Airlines Flight 175 Witness Reactions III" on the tinacart YouTube channel. UPDATE: Also see his collapse footage (both towers) in the highly recommended "Oil, Smoke, and Mirrors" (at vrt 29:20).

His location: 1 Penn Plaza, close to CNN.

NIST FOIA files: Release 10, CNN folder, WTCI-329-I-#7.wmv (Only WTC 1 burning and collapse portion of footage included, 43:12 length. CNN didn't air the footage, to my knowledge. Yet, at the end of Devin's video "CNN NEW YORK" is displayed on screen.)

The rare clip is barely 2 seconds long, as found in the new documentary "After the Towers Fell" (at 1:15 in) which is not available at the 911conspiracy.tv mainstream documentaries page. Two other new 9/11 documentaries to add this year include Nat. Geo's "Giuliani's 9/11" (not added) and "Witness D.C. 9/11" (added). Others?

Caroline's footage premiered on History's "102 Minutes that Changed America" in 2008, but only the plane crash explosion.

CNN found Caroline 10 years after her NYU dorm room experience... the only known source for the collapse shots. The WTC 2 collapse also was captured, minus the initiation.

Titled "9.11 World Trade Center view from Thompson Street in NYC" -- uploaded by 'ilsefernandez' September 20, 2007 with 'more info' that reads, "9.11 view of the towers from thompson street right before they fall." The shot quickly zooms out to a medium-to-wide shot, pretty stable for a handheld. The core remnant collapse in last second fades out. Ilse's video also captured the South Tower demolition.

Another version can be found titled 10h28 : Rare vue : Effondrement de la tour nord du WTC, but with ambient audio.

UPDATE Oct. 2010: Renamed thanks to the NIST FOIA/Cumulus video database. More info on the videographers can be found in the WTC 2 webpage entry. Extended version found in 10 parts at globalimageworks.com, with audio of FDNY radio chatter. A similar view of the WTC 1 event is APTN Below North.

Found at the Getty Images archive films website and seen in HD (YT link above) during History Channel's 2008 "102 Minutes that Changed America." The distance makes it almost seem peaceful. It was used twice in the History Channel's "World Trade Center: Rise and Fall of an American Icon" (2002), as evidenced by NIST Cumulus file "Rise Fall Hist Part A Clip23." Also at Getty is the Onno de Jong shot.

New Sept. 10, 2011 as posted by YouTuber "richiegibbs," who said: "This is my footage from that day and beyond. At the end is footage of a Daniel Suhr memorial service. Daniel Suhr was the first nyc firefighter killed on 9-11-01. I'll always remember the look in the eyes of his father." The footage, shot from a rooftop in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, doesn't include the initiation. Same for WTC 2.

Steady wide shot. Uploaded to YouTube September 10, 2008 by Queensdude. Original title: "World Trade Center 9/11 from Queens/Nassau Border." Description: "Possibly the most distant (16 mi.)video footage of the second jet hitting the South Tower and the collapse of the North Tower." Also find Fred's video on the makehistory.national911memorial.org website, with a current total of only 16 videos. FYI, there was a more distant view of the plane hitting: the "Earthstation" aircraft (unknown) was about 18 miles away. While most camera locations for the 2nd plane videos have been plotted, the South and especially North Tower videos remain mostly uncharted.

One (the?) source is terrorize.dk. Seen in an unknown TLC program. Found also by femr2 and/or clauzii. These two researchers deserve much thanks for their hard work! More info? Contact matt@911conspiracy•tv.

Posted Jan. 2011 on YouTube by "dvdvanity," who "was 2 blocks from the World Trade Center when we were attacked that day." Video was found by researcher 911allcausticcamera and listed as collapse 123. Low resolution with the tower obscured by buildings, the footage also includes chaotic running from the WTC 2 catastrophe.

Handheld wide to medium shot. Uploaded to YouTube July 18, 2006 by jimnxsq. Original title: "9/11: As It Happened - from Brooklyn; The North Tower Falls." Brooklyn views are rare! Maybe that's due to poor quality angle, considering the smoke.

New Sept. 8, 2011 as posted by YouTuber "johncira" who said: "When I stepped outside my apartment door and onto 6th Avenue, it seemed such a perfect day, nothing could go wrong." John chose a choice word to describe people's reactions that day: bewilderment. Although a quality shot, it's only 360p resolution (except where enhanced.) Unlike the north tower collapse, the WTC 2 shot wasn't fully captured due to early focus on the closer tower.

Moments before the collapse, the footage includes a clip showing the 10:18 a.m. pressure pulse, not explained by the NIST report, although examined briefly.

Still images from this video appear in NIST volume 1-6, for both the North and South Tower events. The video can be found at the Getty Images archive films website. It's a well-framed, stable shot. Find it in extended length with the South Tower demolition at link 2 above. The shot was used in the first 30 seconds of History Channel's "World Trade Center: Rise and Fall of an American Icon" (2002), link 3 above. This video is not to be confused with a nearby "Unknown NNE" shot below.

"September 11th" was uploaded to YouTube Oct. 1, 2007 by talkingdoggirl and can be found as a .mov file at digitalmartin.com. The collage video features 2 (or more) videographers in Manhattan. One is Alfie Alvarado (see the South Tower collapse collection). Alfie isn't named, but the footage has been matched. The other videographer is named at the end of the 9:44 length video... Noah Klersfeld. We see a street sign "Catherine St." -- which places the camera about here. Thanks, Martin, for your efforts.

Beginning of destruction is missed. Seen with "SY01" below, thanks to Dan Klein at bestshotfootage.com, who emailed me the video "LV01" upon request. So far I haven't found it elsewhere.

New Sept. 2011 as posted by 911allcausticcamera, titled collapse 120. Originally posted by the apparent videographer on YT Jan. 2011. It's an incomplete shot in low resolution with the tower obscured by buildings. Also found on a low res flickr photostream.

The videographer has expressed his unwillingness to create an unedited version of his video, which is a shame because in the South Tower portion, bold text with the incorrect time is emblazoned on the screen AND the descent is edited, clipped in the middle! It seems the WTC 1 initiation was missed.

Using the process of elimination, it can be discerned that AP credits Merrill Lynch in the title info at the beginning of the video "screener" file. The APTN and ABC clips come first, as listed in the titles. This view is not to be confused with the Moussaoui Trial Exhibit Clip 10. Both were shot from the unfinished Hudson River Greenway... this shot closer to the WTC and the river.

This comes from the 2002 HBO documentary "In Memoriam: New York City 9/11/01," which focuses on NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani's experiences. The wonderful thing about the doc. is that the videographers are named! Locations are given as well. Watch that program and many more on the mainstream documentaries page here at 911conspiracy.tv.

This low res shot starts about 2 seconds after the initiation. Titled "Metro Staff watching WTC on 9/11," the description tells us: "This video was shoot on the roof of our office at 17 Menahan st. I remember looking at this, and screeming [sic]: OH My God! OH My God! The comments you hear on this video are from Marty W., who is filming, and tries to discribe [sic] what is happening..."

Unknown amateur shot - plus Ground Zero testimony of red hot steel up to 2 weeks after the "collapses." Clip from Modern Marvels Demolition segment on WTC Ground Zero recovery. Project Superintendant Michael Casale of Mazzocchi Wrecking discusses "steel coming out red in certain areas for the first couple weeks, at least." Which opens the door to a flood of molten steel research: Molten Steel & Extreme Temperatures at WTC.

First, here is all you need to know about the Moussaoui case, including the obvious obstruction of the investigation pre-9/11 (and even after 9/11, until it was deemed acceptable for the FBI to get their search warrant). Moussaoui could have led to the other alleged hijackers and spoiled the cover for the entire black op.

The video used in court to doom the "20th hijacker" was one of 1,202 exhibits admitted into evidence. One of the clips actually shows jumpers' bodies splattered at the base of the towers... not up close, of course. Download U.S. vs. Moussaoui trial exhibit P200015 now from the source. YouTube user LolLoosechange posted this video with the title "The Collapse of the North Tower (Rare)" (link above), as well as other obscure 9/11 videos.

UPDATE Dec. 2010: NIST FOIA from 911datasets.org release 20, 42A0060 - FBI#2 --- also see the wtcdata.nist.gov extended version (the site requires agreement to copyright terms before direct links to video pages will work)

UPDATE August 2011: Available on the NIST website. Video online since May 4, 2006... according to United States District Court Eastern District of Virginia. Without knowledge of its use in this case, it was uploaded to YouTube November 07, 2008 by penttbom.com YouTuber bronco2121, who received 10 DVDs from the FBI on November 3rd, 2008. See penttbom.com for the story on Scott Bingham's FOIA request for 9/11 material. (No relation to Flight 93 passenger Mark Bingham, as far as I know.) Scott operates the website flight77.info, which tells more of the quest for the missing Pentagon plane impact videos.

Although the tower is in view for a moment during the initiation, the collapse is not seen. Still, this angle must be included here. Audio is preserved, assuming no artistic license or censorship has occurred (as with brother Gedeon's airplane impact shot, with missing frames). Notice the vacuum effect as the dust and paper is sucked up the street back toward Ground Zero! This phenomenon is investigated briefly by Achimspok in NORTH TOWER part2 - Ch18.

The clip comes only from the famous Naudet-Hanlon documentary "9/11," seen on CBS March 2002 for the 6 month anniversary, and on UK TV (at least) in Sept. 2006 for the 5-year anniversary. See the VHS/DVD version here. James Hanlon the actor/producer/firefighter narrated the film, which includes the only quality shot of the 1st plane impact at 8:46. I personally think that shot was staged. The gas leak that caused the intersection to be blocked off... was planned long in advance by people who knew there had to be one good video of the event... and it had to be controlled. What better propaganda than the best 9/11 documentary, with unsuspecting FDNY heroes as the stars!

New addition Nov. 2010 thanks to the work of 911allcausticcamera (Nevermind, the video was removed due to a copyright claim by Lance). The video was once found at nealy.net. The view is from Jersey City Heights.

Partial view begins mid-collapse, same as at the Thought Equity stock footage site. The documentary is actually called "The Center of the World - New York: A Documentary Film." The 2003 PBS film tells the official fairy tale with tons of excellent footage (see it on 911conspiracy.tv now). Speaking during the clip is journalist William Langewiesche, author of American Ground: Unbuilding the World Trade Center (North Point Press, New York, 2002), which was the product of unique unrestricted access for the duration of the "cleanup" recovery effort. While it stuck to the official story of natural, gravity driven collapse, the book documented "the streams of molten metal that leaked from the hot cores and flowed down broken walls inside the foundation hole." (p. 32). The cores were steel, of course. Please see Molten Steel & Extreme Temperatures at WTC for collected testimony to this particular proof for controlled demolition.

New 2010 additions listed below (and some TV network views listed above) come from a NIST Freedom of Information Act request thanks to James Gourley, Justin Keogh, and the International Center for 9/11 Studies -- who are uploading to YouTube channel IC911Studies, along with others. The first release of many in progress was the NIST Cumulus Video Database, which is not totally complete due to some copyright claims. It's 942GB of 6767 files in original uncompressed format or 83.9GB compressed (still high quality, same number of files). Download yourself using the torrents found at the wiki site 911datasets.org. Cumulus is release number 14, first in a list of many releases to come, totaling more than 4TB. Release 25 is 190GB. Release 27 is 430GB. Sorting all 36 releases is a work in progress.

WTCI-329-I-#20.wmv at 14:49 = While focusing on the NYPD helicopter the camera operator missed WTC 2 fall behind buildings in the foreground. The angle that captured the WTC 1 event only saw 2 seconds of debris falling in a glare. Some of the footage was aired on CNN, particularly people running. The camera operator didn't catch much of interest, but focused on the bewildered people mostly. Watch also at the NIST website.

The South Tower shot was televised. It's included in the YouTube link above. I named the camera angle for the reporter who narrated his footage 9/12 at 1:07 am-- footage which also included a closeup of a small numbered bracket belonging to a Boeing jet.

A nearby camera was WPIX "PAX-TV", famous for the shot of the 2nd plane... but which only caught a partial WTC 1 (listed below as NIST 14: WPIX Dub3 73). From the International Center for 9/11 Studies NIST FOIA, 911datasets.org release 10, WTCI-329-I-#19.wmv.

Source: International Center for 9/11 Studies NIST FOIA, 911datasets.org release 10, WTCI-329-I-#23.wmv at 42:49 vrt -- after a long video containing a new WTC 7 collapse (partial). Both videos start after initiation, although WTC 1 burns in this shot for about 15 minutes after the WTC 2 collapse... which was totally missed.

Found in WTCI-329-I-#12.wmv at vrt 24:25 (video also includes a rare audio of the 1st plane hitting, accidentally captured by WNYW's Dick Oliver). See also vrt 1:00:50 where James begins reporting (after Jim Ryan, the anchor in the studio, refers to the area as "Ground Zero"). Other interesting shots by James's cameraman include two wounded women who were struck by falling debris (it is assumed from the second plane exploding out of the north side of the South Tower).

Also found in release 25 in mpeg-2 form, folder 42A0119 - G25D30. The camera operator and apparent friends speak Hebrew. Add info here - - - Add info here - - - Add info here - - - Add info here - - - Unknown amateur shot...

Extended length tape shows no visible shaking before the "collapse," as is the case in the Sauret footage (TV amateur above). This is clip 23 in the Cindy Weil folder from NIST.

UPDATE: Videographer named "Robert Bery" with footage for download at the NIST WTC Repository on archive.org. Probably network camera footage, since four clips from before the collapses were included as a CNN folder in the NIST FOIA release 14 like "Kiederling" who did work for CNN. The shot was only made with overloaded audio rumbling like a train on gravel. A TV airing of this clip has not been found. Thanks to 911Crasting for uploading dozens of clips from the NIST FOIA, including the one linked above (and below).

Richard Lee Brennan, photographer, according to the NIST video repository on archive.org. This appears to be amateur footage shot from a tripod in the window of a home, the occupant of which happened to be watching CNN, the network that would air the WTC 2 demolition from this angle (see Richard Lee Brennan). This WTC 1 clip wasn't aired, as far as I know.

For some reason the camera is continuously zooming in and out, in and out, like a child was playing a game. This camera missed the 2nd plane impact, apparently.

Clip 10. Static camera, wide shot... and crooked. This of course could be an artistic statement. Compare to the NBC GE Building shot. That leaning view created a false impression the towers were unstable... which was abused. Note the footage is available in mpeg-2 in release 27, folder 42A0274 - G26D150.

Excellent construction footage in these documentary clips. Hear the trusted narrator say the exterior load-bearing columns of the WTC could withstand the impact of a Boeing 707. You can also hear WTC construction manager Frank DeMartini say the same. The "MSNBC Investigates" episode "Out of the Rubble: The Aftermath of 9/11" originally aired 20 December, 2001 (according to IMDb, which has only the title and air date). NIST's version is incomplete, so the clips when joined aren't clear.

Another MSNBC Investigates program on 9/11, 24 Hours at Ground Zero is also partially available for viewing (not from NIST).

High quality video, despite the fact that WTC 7 blocks most of the tower. Click the YouTube link above to see it and 2 very close camera views from West Broadway: CNN Dub4 28 and Lucia Davis. The camera operator hasn't been identified, but NY1 crew in the area included John Schiumo (heard at 9:21 am say "here in Battery Park City" - nearby), Wiener Milien (named with a caption in HBO's "In Memoriam: New York City 9/11/01 - not nearby), Yogi Colon (seen narrating his collapse aftermath footage in the studio at 2:04 pm). UPDATE: This view is found in release 30, folder 42A0348 - G30D2, file name VTS_01_3.VOB.

Comes from "New York Firefighters: The Brotherhood of 9/11" (Discovery Channel, 2002 - sorry no full video link). Title should say "NY Firefighters Discovery 18 and 6", because 18 features only this new view... in slow motion from an earlier point. File 6 is in regular speed and continues later into the collapse of the core remnants (after the FireLine Video clip).

UPDATE Dec. 2011: Download found at the NIST archive.org video repository. No known version exists with full collapse. Only the "spire" of tower core is seen. Amazing shot of the developing dust cloud.

Gunshots can be heard as the dust cloud spreads (0:52), as heard in the PAX-WNBC Jeff Scarborough footage shot from nearby. In the race to beat the suffocating dust cloud, police officers used their side arms to break windows of locked buildings (need citation), in order to find shelter.

More explosions are picked up by Peskin's camera, and are the subject of a few comments from the videographer. This of course could be exploding gas tanks from the many burned out vehicles recorded by WCBS Channel 2 reporter Vince Dementri. See the Richard Peskin combined clips from about 11:00 am to after 5:21 pm.

The 2002 ABC Program "Report from Ground Zero" aired Sept. 10, based on FDNY veteran Dennis Smith's best-selling book, Report from Ground Zero: The Story of the Rescue Efforts at the World Trade Center, Viking/Penguin, New York, 2002. The rare WTC 1 clip comes at about vrt 35:08.

One unfortunate sound editing detail inserted an explosion sound (clip 34) during the molten metal splash in Luigi Cazzaniga's video (link to original). Of course there is debate about the splash or explosion, dating to before the appearance of the ABC/NIST audio. Was it thermite igniting or a splash on the facade?

Shot from the eastern bank of the East River just north of the Williamsburgh Bridge. Video also includes the South Tower's explosive, engineered collapse. A shockingly serene view.

At the moment of initiation, just as the east side fire flares and the antenna drops, a person walks in front of the camera.. for half a second. See it in extended length in release 33 (mpeg-2) , 42A0247 - G26D122.

Appears in the folder "WCBS NIST Dub #1_Damas home video," however this is not the Damas home video, considering two things: 1. This angle makes up 2 of 32 clips from this folder not coming from the same camera, assuming the male voices are the same in both the WTC 2 and WTC 1 clips both from the NNE (and pretty close, unlike the 2 last clips in the folder). 2. The other 30 clips were shot from angles that actually aired on WCBS... and are much better quality. See above - Peter Damas.

Shot by WNBC camera operator Craig White starting at 10:28:21 a.m., according to the NIST website (wtcdata.nist.gov requires agreement to copyright terms [for cookie], then reclick this link if necessary). This angle is very similar to three others: APTN Below North 1 and 2, and one by WPIX. This one doesn't include the initiation, though.

An additional, identical clip (but shorter) also in the NIST FOIA release 14 is NBC_News Dub from Jim Remberg\NBC News Dub_clip27. Another high quality version is in release 25, 42A0118 - G25D28.

This view is obscured not unlike the ABC Reporter Nina Pineda shot, from behind the Woolworth Building, north and east of the Trade Center. Thanks 911allcausticcamera for uploading, although by some people it might be considered a waste of time to watch.

Another obscured shot, this only of the core remnant aka spire standing in smoke and dust... north and east of the Trade Center. A video link might be considered a waste of time... considering the wealth of video listed here.

Aired on TV at an unknown time. Listed in non-TV category despite the FOX5/WNYW logo. It's a rare view from southwest, similar to amateur Meridianmulti (partial)... and WCBS Chopper2. . Also see the newly available 2nd airplane impact video from this angle, listed as a non-televised amateur found as "WT Comp Reel."

Cumulus files: FOX and CBS clips - Selected events\Selected events clips_16, and WNYW Dub1 113, and WNBC Dub10 89 -- see also release 25 42A0099 - G25D9, for high quality, but shorter in length, mpeg-2 (Watch enhanced HD version now).

Recorded on FDR Drive - the same camera that captured the second plane, "PAX-TV." Also found in Release 25, 42A0110 - G25D20, a DVD with extended footage (vrt 1:01:10. From this view the WTC 1 event is not much to see in comparison with the dozens of astonishing views above.

FOIA release 20 folder 42A0061. Stable view, low 352x240 resolution (like others in Release 20). North Tower event begins at 1:32:48 in the original file. Named when the 2nd plane video was released by penttbom.com in a 2008 FOIA. This camera caught the 2nd plane impact and both collapses. I doubt the FBI learned anything from the video.

Release 20, folder 42A0064. 352x240 resolution. North Tower event begins at 58:10 in the original file. This camera caught the 2nd plane impact and both collapses... but it was handheld. I doubt the FBI learned anything from the video.

Release 27 is 427 GB, huge... although much is already available material. This upload comes from 911allcausticcamera, who credits folder 42A0213 - G26D73. Thanks.

Found in release 27 folder 42A0216 - G26D77 at about frame 11200 in the DVD (VOB files joined, same as DVD). FOX News at an unknown time. What a giant banner blocking the view! Argh.

New, FDNY video I think. Exclusively found at the NIST Review archive.org collection, Jan. 2012... only viewed 5 times since it was uploaded Nov. 2011. Not yet found in the above NIST FOIA releases from IC911Studies and 911datasets.org, after intensive searching.

Notable shots from the other hour and 17 minutes of video includes a clip showing the raising of the flag as famously captured by Tom Franklin.

New from the NIST WTC Repository at archive.org (May 2010, apparently), posted Nov. 2011 by 911allcausticcamera and titled as collapse 128. Smoke spoils the shot, like in other Brooklyn views. Initiation was missed, or edited (see 11:57 in original). WTC2 collapse was also missed. Low resolution and blue tone washout. Location by the Brooklyn Bridge is similar to the new 2011 Flight 175 shot by Howard Schickler.

Uploaded Sept. 1, 2011 by massasvassa and titled "9/11." Quoting from YouTube:

I've kept these photos and video(s) in a box for the past decade. Not looking at them. Once or twice upon my return to Europe I showed them to a friend and to my mother, but that is all. [...]

The face in this video seriously conveys the horror of September 11. It's a shame some viewers will laugh at the person speaking Japanese (?) in red hair and lime green attire.

Steady medium shot with original audio of conversation mixed with added bass guitar sound for dramatic effect (I guess). Uploaded to metacafe.com Dec. 31, 2008 by videographer Last Wolf, titled "9/11 Remembered." The 2:24 length video has both "collapses," as seen from beside the Hudson River in New Jersey. The South Tower was perfectly lined up behind the North.

YouTube user passenger247 has removed his video, but 911allcausticcamera ripped it and archived it. Considering the degraded quality and complete lack of audio, its only value seems to be another digit in this list.

New 2011, uploaded to vimeo in memory of the 10th anniversary. Found by 911allcausticcamera. View nearby Rick Siegel, who - unlike this - recorded the whole event. . . . . . .

Copyright 2001 by sceenz.com. Titled "Unseen Footage from September 11th 2001. Ground Zero" as uploaded 9/19/2006 by YouTube user PA7. A pretty rare shot, but of poor quality, unfortunately. Another low res, glitchy version from CNYCLIVE.com is also online (link 2 above).

See www.911eyewitness.com and www.911raw.com, where the footage is unavailable. The audio is in question due to deep explosion sounds, as analyzed by Dave Shaw in the "911 Eyewitness Hoboken" DVD (YT link 2 above), or at www.mediumrecords.com/wtc/audio02.html (where you can download the Siegel clip). Quoting the audio engineer at mediumrecords.com:

The dramatic nature of the blast sounds which occur in the 4 minutes prior to the collapse certainly raises some puzzling questions. Since other long stretches of unedited pre-collapse footage (with audio) from other angles has not yet been made public, it is not possible for us to hear if other recordings also caught these blasts. In other recordings from closer to the tower, though only short snippets are available, we don't see much of any indication that intense explosions have be registered [sic] by any people in the area.

Certainly this webpage can help address the question of existing video with audio in the minutes before the first "collapse." See also this website's extensive 9/11 TV archive. Why is the video and especially audio record near the towers so slim during this time period? Or is it? Just because of the sensational nature of the destruction and otherwise uninteresting smoking towers? Please participate in the discussion on this bizarre audio debacle. (NOTICE my video links there are all dead since YouTube cancelled my [old] channel due to copyright claims... two by Naudet/Goldfish Pictures and one by "911 Eyewitness" for posting "9/11 Mysteries" by Sophia Shafquat, which used some of Rick's footage with different audio -- like many documentaries are known to do, but without his permission of course -- get the deleted video 911 Mysteries Pt 2 Secrets n Lies Exposed by Rick Siegel [flv] now, for more information).

Thanks to Dan Klein at bestshotfootage.com, who emailed me the video upon request. So far I haven't found it elsewhere. Side note: In 2008 the airplane video from this angle began to circulate.

Steady wide shot. Uploaded to YouTube May 15, 2007 by tag101joe. Original title: "9/11 KNUCKLEBORO - FOOTAGE FROM OZONE PARK." Description: "9/11 SHORT CLIP HOW I SAW IT FROM THE ROOF WHERE I WORK , IN OZONE PARK , QUEENS , N.Y."

Video includes 2nd plane hit (explosion only) and both collapses. The footage plays in the background of a thoughtful song by the videographer. See annakinslayd.com. The video begins with the text:

On September 11th, 2001 Annakin Slayd and his roommate Elan Zafir were in lower Manhattan when the World Trade Center was attacked. As they walked the 13 blocks between their Thompson Street flat and the towers, they captured what they saw on a home video camera. This past summer Slayd walked that path once again, returning to Ground Zero for the first time.

This also included both the WTC 2 and 1 collapses.

The 2002 TLC program World Trade Center - Anatomy Of The Collapse contains some rare stuff, but draws incorrect conclusions about the cause... even according to NIST. Truss failure wasn't the right answer. PBS-NOVA made the same error in "Why the Towers Fell" (2002). Lead investigator and spokesman for NIST, Shyam Sunder tells us in 2006 (PBS-NOVA's "Building on Ground Zero") that the "pancake theory" forwarded by ASCE lead man W. Eugene Corley was in fact - for want of a better word - bullsh!t. So, how long before the exterior-columns-bowed-in-and-snapped theory gets tossed? BECAUSE the initiation was inside the core. -- Download avi on terrorize.dk.

YouTube pre-release May 27, 2010. DVD was released 9/11/10. Videographer Jim Kosior has two YouTube channels: TuesdayMorningInSept and Supersynapsis. His movie "Tuesday Morning In September" consists of about 2 hours of lightly edited footage, including the second plane hit and both collapses. An effort is under way to professionally distribute the film.

Early versions of the footage have appeared as an artistic video recording of either one or two TVs playing his original video -- link 1 above. (This was not televised, FYI.) For details or to buy the DVD, see tuesdaymorninginseptember.com. Note that it is not able to play on a computer, in order to prevent copyright infringement.

Found at mrfootage.com -- unknown. Smoke spoils the shot, unlike the South Tower video from this vantage point.

One East River view missing from the TV archive (for both demolitions) is the ABC Brooklyn cam. When the 2nd plane hit, the camera was zoomed close on the North Tower. The giant fireball was aired often.

One example of this handheld wide shot found on YouTube was posted by VanDerLubbe. No info is offered, only a link to WeAreChange confronting Larry Silverstein. Note: a better quality shot from near this vantage point is above amateur Onno de Jong (alphabetically under J).

Steady wide shot (low resolution) found on YouTube in an "avant-garde video about the attacks" by killtheartist1. Not to be confused with the other Unknown NNE shot above.

Stock footage apparently no longer available at F.I.L.M. Archives, only LiveLeak in LOW res. The clip begins with footage from the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Then both 9/11 "collapses" are included, but missing the initiations.

Found by femr2 (see links 2 and 3 above) and by 911allcausticcamera, perhaps at terrorize.dk. Televised shot, unknown air date. .. .. .. .. .. ..

New Nov. 2011. Found by 911allcausticcamera and titled as collapse 127 -- source unknown. Low resolution with the tower obscured by trees and a person's head. . . . . . . . . . . . .

Quality view archived by 911allcausticcamera. Camera location placed at 160 Varick St, according to researcher YougeneDebs (see comments at YouTube). South Tower event was missed, and 1 second of the N. Tower initiation was missed. Still, we get to see the zipper tear down the west side of the building faster than freefall.

Very brief view archived by 911allcausticcamera, titled "Rare Collapse 23". Similar shot to "Zero" amateur, which can be seen below in much better quality. Thanks are due, nonetheless, for the archival images! This project owes a lot to 911allcausticcamera.

Found at Getty Images stock footage website, clip 98070855. Freaking pedestrians got in the way! They stop and turn as if they heard it, or the reactions behind them. Videographer unknown... but I know he was disappointed with the quality of his recording.

Found thanks to 911allcausticcamera, titled collapse 55. This and a couple more poor quality shots can be seen at mrfootage.com. The WTC smoke was blowing southeast, obscuring the view. - - - - -

From his website— his video "My 9/11" is "an hour long video shot in the streets of New York City on September 11, 2001." Subtitles are a nice touch, especially with the numerous memorable quotes from witnesses in the film. My YouTube clip cut two thirds of the footage to compile some of the important parts, like airplane witnesses, an explosion near WTC Building 7, talk of the truck (or van) seen downtown with a picture of the towers getting hit by an airplane, that the cops apparently found (no photos of the van or truck have been made public, although police radio reported that between 6th and 7th on King Street, "it's a big truck with a mural painted of a, of a [sic] airplane diving into New York City and exploding." )... shots of burned papers in the street (despite the limited fire on upper floors of the towers).... Valuable lengthy video.

High quality clips including WTC 7. Xenomorph911WTC uploaded this with the title "9/11: Anonymous new release of 3 WTC collapse videos," on December 06, 2008... a month and a week after the videos (not including the South Tower clip) appeared on veoh.com. From Xeno's more info (and similarly at 911blogger.com), we read:

An anonymous source has allowed the release of high quality DVD footage of all 3 WTC collapses. The North & South Tower & building 7. The photographer wishes to remain anonymous and audio has not been given permission for public release, but you can download the files here without sound, in high quality DVD format cut from the source video at the following links. [edit: megaupload.com has been shut down, so no downloads.]

Thanks, Xeno.

As seen in his emotional film "Telling Nicholas." After the filmmaker "was forced from his home by the debris cloud that rose from the ash of the falling towers, he contacted the family of a missing woman he saw on a flier. She was the mother of 7-year-old Nicholas. Whitney tells the powerful story of Nicholas, whose father waited 10 days before telling him that his mother is dead." Full, high quality version of the footage (also WTC 2) isn't available, yet.

The issue raised during the clip in question is about freefall speed during the "collapses." Concerning WTC Building 7, it's an open-and-shut case! (see the911forum, for example) Regarding the towers, the point remains valid. If you've seen the above higher quality videos, you know the explosions tore down the side of the building faster than freefall.

See "Zero" now. Millions in Europe watched during its TV broadcast for the anniversary in Sept. 2008. It was screened at European Parliament, too (U.S. power intimidated the majority of world leaders, many of whom didn't show. See that story on the global awareness playlist).
