We >>realized later after talking and finding out that it was the floors >>collapsing to where the plane had hit. >>... >>You did hear the explosions [when the North Tower came down]. Of course >>after the first one -- the first one was pretty much looking at in like >>in awe. You didn't realize that this was really happening because you >>kind of just stood there and you didn't react as fast as you thought you >>were going to. The second one coming down, you knew the explosions. Now >>you're very familiar with it. >>Interview, 01/25/02, New York Times >> >>Jason Charles -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>I grabbed her and the Lieutenant picked her up by the legs and we start >>walking over slowly to the curb, and then I heard an explosion from up, >>from up above, and I froze and I was like, oh, s___, I'm dead because I >>thought the debris was going to hit me in the head and that was it. >>Then everybody stops and looks at the building and they they take off. >>The Lieutenant dropped her legs and ran. The triage center, everybody >>who was sitting there hurt and, oh, you know, help me, they got up and >>and everybody together got up and ran. I looked at them like why are >>they running? I look over my shoulder and I says, oh, s___, and then I >>turned around and looked up and that's when I saw the tower coming down. >>... >>North Tower: >>We start walking back there and then I heard a ground level explosion >>and I'm like holy s___, and then you heard that twisting metal wreckage >>again. Then I said s___ and everybody started running and I started >>running behind them, and we get to the door. >>Interview, 01/23/02, New York Times >> >>Frank Cruthers -- Chief (F.D.N.Y.) [Citywide Tour Commander] >>And while I was still in that immediate area, the south tower, 2 World >>Trade Center, there was what appeared to be at first an explosion. It >>appeared at the very top, simultaneously from all four sides, materials >>shot out horizontally. And then there seemed to be a momentary delay >>before you could see the beginning of the collapse. >>Interview, 10/31/01, New York Times >> >>James Curran -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) >>A guy started scremaing to run. When I got underneath the north bridge I >>looked back and you heard it, I heard like every floor went chu-chu-chu. >>Looked back and from the pressure everything was getting blown out of >>the floors before it actually collapsed. >>Interview, 12/30/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Darnowski -- Paramedic (E.M.S.) >>I started walking back up towards Vesey Street. I heard three >>explosions, and then we heard like groaning and grinding, and tower two >>started to come down. >>Interview, 11/09/01, New York Times >> >>Dominick Derubbio -- Battalion Chief (F.D.N.Y.) [Division 8] >>After a while we were looking up at the tower, and all of a sudden >>someone said it's starting to come down. >>... >>This would be the first one. >>... >>This one here. It was weird how it started to come down. It looked like >>it was a timed explosion, but I guess it was just the floors starting to >>pancake one on top of the other. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Karin Deshore -- Captain (E.M.S.) >>Somewhere around the middle of the World Trade Center, there was this >>orange and red flash coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then >>this flash just kept popping all the way around the building and that >>building had started to explode. The popping sound, and with each >>popping sound it was initially an orange and then a red flash came out >>of the building and then it would just go all around the building on >>both sides as far as I could see. These popping sounds and the >>explosions were getting bigger, going both up and down and then all >>around the building. >>Interview, 11/07/01, New York Times >> >>Brian Dixon -- Battalion Chief (F.D.N.Y.) >>I was watching the fire, watching the people jump and hearing a noise >>and looking up and seeing -- it actually looked -- the lowest floor of >>fire in the south tower actually looked like someone had planted >>explosives around it because the whole bottom I could see -- I could see >>two sides of it and the other side -- it just looked like that floor >>blew out. I looked up and you could actually see everything blew out on >>the one floor. I thought, geez, this looks like an explosion up there, >>it blew out. Then I guess in some sense of time we looked at it and >>realized, no, actually it just collapsed. That's what blew out the >>windows, not that there was an explosion there but that windows blew >>out. The realization hit that it's going to fall down, the top's coming >>off. I was still thinking -- there was never a thought that this whole >>thing is coming down. I thought that that blew out and stuff is starting >>to fly down. The top is going to topple off there. >>Interview, 10/25/01, New York Times >> >>Michael Donovan -- Captain (F.D.N.Y.) >>Anyway, with that I was listening, and there was an incredibly loud >>rumbling. I never got to look up. People started running for the >>entrances to the parking garages. They started running for the >>entrances. I started running without ever looking up. The roar became >>tremendous. I fell on the way to the parking garages. Debris was >>starting to fall all around me. I got up, I got into the parking >>garages, was knocked down by the percussion. I thought there had been an >>explosion or a bomb that they had blown up there. The Vista >>International Hotel was my first impression, that they had blown it up. >>I never got to see the World Trade Center coming down. >>Interview, 11/09/01, New York Times >> >>James Drury -- Assistant Commissioner (F.D.N.Y.) >>We were in the process of getting some rigs moved when I turned, as I >>heard a tremendous roar, explosion, and saw that the first of the two >>towers was starting to come down. >>... >>When the dust started to settle, I headed back down towards the World >>Trade Center and I guess I came close to arriving at the corner of Vesey >>and West again where we started to hear the second roar. That was the >>north tower now coming down. I should say that people in the street and >>myself included thought that the roar was so loud that the explosive - >>bombs were going off inside the building. Obviously we were later proved >>wrong. >>... >>The sight of the jumpers was horrible and the turning around and seeing >>that first tower come down was unbelieveable. The sound it made. As I >>said I thought the terrorists planted explosives somewhere in the >>building. That's how loud it was, crackling explosive, a wall. That's >>about it. Any questions? >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Thomas Fitzpatrick -- Deputy Commissioner for Administration (F.D.N.Y.) >>We looked up at the building straight up, we were that close. All we saw >>was a puff of smoke coming from about 2 thirds of the way up. Some >>people thought it was an explosion. I don't think I remember that. I >>remember seeing it, it looked like sparkling around one specific layer >>of the building. I assume now that that was either windows starting to >>collapse like tinsel or something. Then the building started to come >>down. My initial reaction was that this was exactly the way it looks >>when they show you those implosions on TV. I would have to say for three >>or four seconds anyway, maybe longer. I was just watching. It was >>interesting to watch, but the thing that woke everybody up was the cloud >>of black material. It reminded me of the 10 commandments when the green >>clouds come down on the street. The black cloud was coming down faster >>than the building, so whatever was coming down was going to hit the >>street and it was pretty far out. You knew it wasn't coming right down. >>Judging from where people were jumping before that, this cloud was much >>further. >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Gary Gates -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>I looked up, and the building exploded, the building that we were very >>close to, which was one tower. The whole top came off like a volcano. >>... >>So now both towers have been hit by a plane. The north tower was >>burning. So the explosion, what I realized later, had to be the start of >>the collapse. It was the way the building appeared to blowout from both >>sides. I'm looking at the face of it, and all we see is the two sides of >>the building just blowing out and coming apart like this, as I said, >>like the top of a volcano. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Gorman -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 22] >>North Tower: >>John Malley, who was right behind me, I turned around for him, because >>he was doing something, either putting his coat on or something, and as >>I was looking at him I heard the explosion, looked up, and saw like >>three floors explode, saw the antenna coming down, and turned around and >>ran north. >>Interview, 01/09/02, New York Times >> >>Stephen Gregory -- Assistant Commissioner (F.D.N.Y.) >>We both for whatever reason -- again, I don't know how valid this is >>with everything that was going on at that particular point in time, but >>for some reason I thought that when I looked in the direction of the >>Trade Center before it came down, before No. 2 came down, that I saw >>low-level flashes. In my conversation with Lieutenant Evangelista, never >>mentioning this to him, he questioned me and asked me if I saw low-level >>flashes in front of the building, and I agreed with him because I >>thought -- at that time I didn't know what it was. I mean, it could have >>been as a result of the building collapsing, things exploding, but I saw >>a flash flash flash and then it looked like the building came down. >>... >>[It was at] the lower level of the building. You know like when they >>demolish a building, how when they blow up a building, when it falls >>down? That's what I thought I saw. >>... >>He said did you see anything by the building? And I said what do you >>mean by see anything? He said did you see flashes? I said, yes, well, I >>thought it was just me. He said no, I saw them too. >>... >>I know about the explosion on the upper floors. This was like at eye >>level. I didn't have to go like this. Because I was looking this way. >>I'm not going to say it was on the first floor or the second floor, but >>somewhere in that area I saw to me what appeared to be flashes. >>Interview, 10/03/01, New York Times >> >>Gregg Hansson -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>That's basically where we were. Then a large explosion took place. In my >>estimation that was the tower coming down, but at that time I did not >>know what that was. I thought some type of bomb had gone off. I was, I >>believe, ahead of the rest of the firefighters and officers there. I >>made it to the corner, and I took about four running steps this way when >>you could feel the rush of the wind coming at you. I believed that that >>was a huge fireball coming at the time. >>Interview, 10/09/01, New York Times >> >>Timothy Julian -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 118] >>We came out from 90 West, made a left, headed east, and right when we >>got to the corner of Washington and Albany, that's when I heard the >>building collapse. >>First I thought it was an explosion. I thought maybe there was bomb on >>the plane, but delayed type of thing, you know secondary device. >>... >>You know, and I just heard like an explosion and then cracking type of >>noise, and then it sounded like a freight train, rumbling and picking up >>speed, and I remember I looked up, and I saw it coming down. >>Interview, 12/26/01, New York Times >> >>Art Lakiotes -- Chief (F.D.N.Y.) [Safety Command] >>Tower one now comes down. Same thing but this time some of us take off >>straight down West Street, because we realized later on, subconsciously >>we wanted to be near buildings. We all thought it was secondary >>explosives or more planes or whatever. >>Interview, 12/03/01, New York Times >> >>John Malley -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 22] >>We were walking into darkness. As we walked through those revolving >>doors, that's when we felt the rumble. I felt the rumbling, and then I >>felt the force coming at me. I was like, what the hell is that? In my >>mind it was a bomb going off. The pressure got so great, I stepped back >>behind the columns separating the revolving doors. Then the force just >>blew past me. It blew past me it seemed for a long time. In my mind I >>was saying what the hell is this and when is it going to stop? Then it >>finally stopped, that pressure which I thought was a concussion of an >>explosion. It turns out it was the down pressure wind of the floors >>collapsing on top of each other. At that point everything went black, >>and then the collapse came. It just rained on top of us. Everything >>came. It rained debris forever. >>Interview, 12/12/01, New York Times >> >>Julio Marrero -- E.M.T. (F.D.N.Y.) >>I was screaming from the top of my lungs, and I must have been about ten >>feet away from her and she couldn't even hear me, because the building >>was so loud, the explosion, that she couldn't even hear me. I just saw >>everybody running; and she saw us running, and she took off behind us. >>Interview, 10/25/01, New York Times >> >>Orlando Martinez -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>There was an explosion and after we started running, I was able to make >>it to Chambers and West, where I only saw one EMT, EMT Vega. She is new >>here. She was the only EMT I saw from the station and with all the cops >>and everybody else running, rescue workers. I grabbed her and I said >>just stay with me. We will try to get out of here. >>Interview, 11/01/01, New York Times >> >>Linda McCarthy -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>So when that one went down. I thought the plane was exploding, or >>another plane hit. I had no idea it was coming down. But I couldn't see >>it gone, because I couldn't see it really in the first place with all >>the smoke. >>Interview, 11/28/01, New York Times >> >>James McKinley -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>After that I heard this huge explosion, I thought it was a boiler >>exploding or something. Next thing you know this huge cloud of smoke is >>coming at us, so we're running. Everyone is, firemen, PD, everyone is >>running away from the World Trade Center, up Vessey Street. This is >>North End, we was running around Vessey and around North end to get away >>from the first smoke. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Joseph Meola -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Engine 91] >>As we are looking up at the building, what I saw was, it looked like the >>building was blowing out on all four sides. We actually heard the pops. >>Didn't realize it was the falling -- you know, you heard the pops of the >>building. You thought it was just blowing out. >>Interview, 12/11/01, New York Times >> >>Keith Murphy -- (F.D.N.Y.) [] >>I was standing kind of on the edge of where our elevator bank met the >>big elevator bank. That was when the - I determined that's when the >>north tower collapses. We are standing there and the first thing that >>happened, which I still think is strange to me, the lights went out. >>Completely pitch black. Since we are in that core little area of the >>building, there is no natural light. No nothing, I didn't see a thing. >>I had heard right before the lights went out, I had heard a distant boom >>boom boom, sounded like three explosions. I don't know what it was. At >>the time, I would have said they sounded like bombs, but it was boom >>boom boom and then the lights all go out. I hear someone say oh, s___, >>that was just for the lights out. I would say about 3, 4 seconds, all of >>a sudden this tremendous roar. It sounded like being in a tunnel with >>the train coming at you. >>Interview, 12/05/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Murray -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 18] >>When the tower started -- there was a big explosion that I heard and >>someone screamed that it was coming down and I looked away and I saw all >>the windows domino -- you know, dominoeing up and then come down. We >>were right in front of 6, so we started running and how are you going to >>outrun the World Trade Center? So we threw our tools and I dove under a >>rig. >>Interview, 10/09/01, New York Times >> >>Janice Olszewski -- Captain (E.M.S.) >>I thought more could be happening down there. I didn't know if it was an >>explosion. I didn't know it was a collapse at that point. I thought it >>was an explosion or a secondary device, a bomb, the jet -- plane >>exploding, whatever. >>Interview, 11/07/01, New York Times >> >>Juan Rios -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>I was in the back waiting, you know, so we could wait for patients and I >>was hooking up the regulator to the O-2, when I hear people screaming >>and a loud explosion, and I heard like "sssssssss..." the dust like >>"sssssssss..." So I come out of the bus, and I look and I see a big >>cloud of dust and debris coming from the glass... >>Interview, 10/10/01, New York Times >> >>Michael Ober -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>Then we heard a rumble, some twisting metal, we looked up in the air, >>and to be totally honest, at first, I don't know exactly -- but it >>looked to me just like an explosion. It didn't look like the building >>was coming down, it looked like just one floor had blown completely >>outside of it. I was sitting there looking at it. I just never thought >>they would ever come down, so I didn't think they were coming down. I >>just froze and stood there looking at it. >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Angel Rivera -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) >>Mike Mullan walked one flight up, and then the most horrendous thing >>happened. That's when hell came down. It was like a huge, enormous >>explosion. I still can hear it. Everything shook. Everything went black. >>The wind rushed, very slowly [sound], all the dust, all the -- and >>everything went dark. >>Interview, 01/22/02, New York Times >> >>Daniel Rivera -- Paramedic (E.M.S.) [Battalion 31] >>Then that's when -- I kept on walking close to the south tower, and >>that's when that building collapsed. >>... >>It was a frigging noise. At first I thought it was -- do you ever see >>professional demolition where they set the charges on certain floors and >>then you hear "Pop, pop, pop, pop, pop"? That's exactly what -- because >>I thought it was that. When I heard that frigging noise, that's when I >>saw the building coming down. >>Interview, 10/10/01, New York Times >> >>Kennith Rogers -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) >>Meanwhile we were standing there with about five companies and we were >>just waiting for our assignment and then there was an explosion in the >>south tower, which, according to this map, this exposure just blew out >>the flames. A lot of guys left at that point. I kept watching. Floor >>after floor after floor. One floor under another after another and when >>it hit about the fifth floor, I figured it was a bomb, because it looked >>like a synchronized deliberate kind of thing. I was there in '93. >>Interview, 12/10/01, New York Times >> >>Patrick Scaringello -- Lieutenant (E.M.S.) >>I started to treat patients on my own when I heard the explosion from up >>above. I looked up, I saw smoke and flame and then I saw the top tower >>tilt, start to twist and lean. >>... >>I was assisting in pulling more people out from debris, when I heard the >>second tower explode. When I tried to evacuate the area, by running up >>Fulton, got halfway up. >>Interview, 10/10/01, New York Times >> >>Mark Steffens -- Division Chief (E.M.S.) >>Then there was another it sounded like an explosion and heavy white >>powder, papers, flying everywhere. We sat put there for a few minutes. >>It kind of dissipated. >>... >>That's when we heard this massive explosion and I saw this thing rolling >>towards us. It looked like a fireball and then thick, thick black smoke. >>Interview, 10/03/01, New York Times >> >>John Sudnik -- Battalion Chief (F.D.N.Y.) >>The best I can remember, we were just operating there, trying to help >>out and do the best we could.

Crazy. >>Interview, 11/07/01, New York Times >> >>Neil Sweeting -- Paramedic (E.M.S.) >>You heard a big boom, it was quiet for about ten seconds. Then you could >>hear another one. Now I realize it was the floors starting to stack on >>top of each other as they were falling. It was spaced apart in the >>beginning, but then it got to just a tremendous roar and a rumble that I >>will never forget. >>Interview, 11/01/01, New York Times >> >>Jay Swithers -- Captain (E.M.S.) >>At that point I looked back and most of the people who were triaged in >>that area with the triage tags on them got up and ran. I took a quick >>glance at the building and while I didn't see it falling, I saw a large >>section of it blasting out, which led me to believe it was just an >>explosion. I thought it was a secondary device, but I knew that we had >>to go. >>... >>Within a few moments, I regrouped with Bruce Medjuck and I asked him to >>tell them on the radio to send us MTA buses to get people out. That >>didn't happen. But one thing that did happen was an ambulance pulled up >>which was very clean.

And as my >>eyes traveled up the building, and I was looking at the south tower, >>somewhere about halfway up, my initial reaction was there was a >>secondary explosion, and the entire floor area, a ring right around the >>building blew out. I later realized that the building had started to >>collapse already and this was the air being compressed and that is the >>floor that let go. >>Interview, 10/23/01, New York Times >> >>Thomas Turilli -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) >>The door closed, they went up, and it just seemed a couple of seconds >>and all of a sudden you just heard it, it almost actually that day >>sounded like bombs going off, like boom, boom, boom, like seven or >>eight, and then just a huge wind gust just came and my officer just >>actually took all of us and just threw us down on the ground and kind of >>just jumped on top of us, laid on top of us. >>... >>At that point were were kind of standing on the street and I looked to >>my left and actually I noticed the tower was down.

You heard like loud booms, but I >>guess it was all just stuff coming down, and then we got covered with >>rubble and dust, and I thought we'd actually fallen through the floor >>into like the PATH tubes, because it was so dark you couldn't see >>anything, and from there it was a little hazy from there on. >>Interview, 01/10/02, New York Times >> >>William Wall -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.)

I looked up and you could actually see everything blew out on >>the one floor. I thought, geez, this looks like an explosion up there, >>it blew out. Then I guess in some sense of time we looked at it and >>realized, no, actually it just collapsed. That's what blew out the >>windows, not that there was an explosion there but that windows blew >>out. The realization hit that it's going to fall down, the top's coming >>off.

That was the >>north tower now coming down. I should say that people in the street and >>myself included thought that the roar was so loud that the explosive - >>bombs were going off inside the building. Obviously we were later proved >>wrong. >>... >>The sight of the jumpers was horrible and the turning around and seeing >>that first tower come down was unbelieveable. The sound it made. As I >>said I thought the terrorists planted explosives somewhere in the >>building. That's how loud it was, crackling explosive, a wall. That's >>about it. Any questions? >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Thomas Fitzpatrick -- Deputy Commissioner for Administration (F.D.N.Y.) >>We looked up at the building straight up, we were that close. All we saw >>was a puff of smoke coming from about 2 thirds of the way up. Some >>people thought it was an explosion. I don't think I remember that. I >>remember seeing it, it looked like sparkling around one specific layer >>of the building. I assume now that that was either windows starting to >>collapse like tinsel or something. Then the building started to come >>down. My initial reaction was that this was exactly the way it looks >>when they show you those implosions on TV. I would have to say for three >>or four seconds anyway, maybe longer. I was just watching. It was >>interesting to watch, but the thing that woke everybody up was the cloud >>of black material. It reminded me of the 10 commandments when the green >>clouds come down on the street. The black cloud was coming down faster >>than the building, so whatever was coming down was going to hit the >>street and it was pretty far out. You knew it wasn't coming right down. >>Judging from where people were jumping before that, this cloud was much >>further. >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Gary Gates -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>I looked up, and the building exploded, the building that we were very >>close to, which was one tower. The whole top came off like a volcano. >>... >>So now both towers have been hit by a plane. The north tower was >>burning. So the explosion, what I realized later, had to be the start of >>the collapse. It was the way the building appeared to blowout from both >>sides. I'm looking at the face of it, and all we see is the two sides of >>the building just blowing out and coming apart like this, as I said, >>like the top of a volcano. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Gorman -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.)

In my conversation with Lieutenant Evangelista, never >>mentioning this to him, he questioned me and asked me if I saw low-level >>flashes in front of the building, and I agreed with him because I >>thought -- at that time I didn't know what it was. I mean, it could have >>been as a result of the building collapsing, things exploding, but I saw >>a flash flash flash and then it looked like the building came down. >>... >>[It was at] the lower level of the building. You know like when they >>demolish a building, how when they blow up a building, when it falls >>down? That's what I thought I saw. >>... >>He said did you see anything by the building? And I said what do you >>mean by see anything? He said did you see flashes? I said, yes, well, I >>thought it was just me. He said no, I saw them too. >>... >>I know about the explosion on the upper floors. This was like at eye >>level. I didn't have to go like this. Because I was looking this way. >>I'm not going to say it was on the first floor or the second floor, but >>somewhere in that area I saw to me what appeared to be flashes. >>Interview, 10/03/01, New York Times >> >>Gregg Hansson -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>That's basically where we were. Then a large explosion took place. In my >>estimation that was the tower coming down, but at that time I did not >>know what that was. I thought some type of bomb had gone off. I was, I >>believe, ahead of the rest of the firefighters and officers there. I >>made it to the corner, and I took about four running steps this way when >>you could feel the rush of the wind coming at you. I believed that that >>was a huge fireball coming at the time. >>Interview, 10/09/01, New York Times >> >>Timothy Julian -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.)

[Safety Command] >>Tower one now comes down. Same thing but this time some of us take off >>straight down West Street, because we realized later on, subconsciously >>we wanted to be near buildings.

As we walked through those revolving >>doors, that's when we felt the rumble. I felt the rumbling, and then I >>felt the force coming at me. I was like, what the hell is that? In my >>mind it was a bomb going off. The pressure got so great, I stepped back >>behind the columns separating the revolving doors. Then the force just >>blew past me. It blew past me it seemed for a long time. In my mind I >>was saying what the hell is this and when is it going to stop? Then it >>finally stopped, that pressure which I thought was a concussion of an >>explosion. It turns out it was the down pressure wind of the floors >>collapsing on top of each other. At that point everything went black, >>and then the collapse came. It just rained on top of us. Everything >>came. It rained debris forever. >>Interview, 12/12/01, New York Times >> >>Julio Marrero -- E.M.T.

At that time, when I heard the 3 loud >>explosions, I started running west on Vesey Street towards the water. At >>that time, I couldn't run fast enough. The debris caught up with me, >>knocked my helmet off. >>Interview, , New York Times >> >>Timothy Burke -- Firefigter (F.D.N.Y.) [Engine 202] >>Then the building popped, lower than the fire, which I learned was I >>guess, the aviation fuel fell into the pit, and whatever floor it fell >>on heated up really bad and that's why it popped at that floor. That's >>the rumor I heard. But it seemed like I was going oh, my god, there is a >>secondary device because the way the building popped. I thought it was >>an explosion. >>Interview, 01/22/02, New York Times >> >>Ed Cachia -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Engine 53] >>It actually gave at a lower floor, not the floor where the plane hit, >>because we originally had thought there was like an internal detonation >>explosives because it went in succession, boom, boom, boom, boom, and >>then the tower came down. With that everybody was just stunned for a >>second or two, looking at the tower coming down. >>Interview, 12/06/05, New York Times >> >>Frank Campagna -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.)

You see three explosions and then >>the whole thing coming down. I turned my head and everybody was >>scattering. From there I don't know who was who. I don't even know where >>my guys went. None of us knew where each other were at at that point in >>time. >>Interview, 12/04/01, New York Times >> >>Craig Carlsen -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 8] >>I guess about three minutes later you just heard explosions coming from >>building two, the south tower. It seemed like it took forever, but there >>were about ten explosions. At the time I didn't realize what it was. We >>realized later after talking and finding out that it was the floors >>collapsing to where the plane had hit. >>... >>You did hear the explosions [when the North Tower came down]. Of course >>after the first one -- the first one was pretty much looking at in like >>in awe. You didn't realize that this was really happening because you >>kind of just stood there and you didn't react as fast as you thought you >>were going to. The second one coming down, you knew the explosions. Now >>you're very familiar with it. >>Interview, 01/25/02, New York Times >> >>Jason Charles -- E.M.T. (E.M.S.) >>I grabbed her and the Lieutenant picked her up by the legs and we start >>walking over slowly to the curb, and then I heard an explosion from up, >>from up above, and I froze and I was like, oh, s___, I'm dead because I >>thought the debris was going to hit me in the head and that was it. >>Then everybody stops and looks at the building and they they take off. >>The Lieutenant dropped her legs and ran. The triage center, everybody >>who was sitting there hurt and, oh, you know, help me, they got up and >>and everybody together got up and ran. I looked at them like why are >>they running? I look over my shoulder and I says, oh, s___, and then I >>turned around and looked up and that's when I saw the tower coming down. >>... >>North Tower: >>We start walking back there and then I heard a ground level explosion >>and I'm like holy s___, and then you heard that twisting metal wreckage >>again.

And then there seemed to be a momentary delay >>before you could see the beginning of the collapse. >>Interview, 10/31/01, New York Times >> >>James Curran -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) >>A guy started scremaing to run. When I got underneath the north bridge I >>looked back and you heard it, I heard like every floor went chu-chu-chu. >>Looked back and from the pressure everything was getting blown out of >>the floors before it actually collapsed. >>Interview, 12/30/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Darnowski -- Paramedic (E.M.S.) >>I started walking back up towards Vesey Street.

[Division 8] >>After a while we were looking up at the tower, and all of a sudden >>someone said it's starting to come down. >>... >>This would be the first one. >>... >>This one here. It was weird how it started to come down. It looked like >>it was a timed explosion, but I guess it was just the floors starting to >>pancake one on top of the other. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Karin Deshore -- Captain (E.M.S.) >>Somewhere around the middle of the World Trade Center, there was this >>orange and red flash coming out. Initially it was just one flash. Then >>this flash just kept popping all the way around the building and that >>building had started to explode. The popping sound, and with each >>popping sound it was initially an orange and then a red flash came out >>of the building and then it would just go all around the building on >>both sides as far as I could see. These popping sounds and the >>explosions were getting bigger, going both up and down and then all >>around the building. >>Interview, 11/07/01, New York Times >> >>Brian Dixon -- Battalion Chief (F.D.N.Y.) >>I was watching the fire, watching the people jump and hearing a noise >>and looking up and seeing -- it actually looked -- the lowest floor of >>fire in the south tower actually looked like someone had planted >>explosives around it because the whole bottom I could see -- I could see >>two sides of it and the other side -- it just looked like that floor >>blew out. I looked up and you could actually see everything blew out on >>the one floor. I thought, geez, this looks like an explosion up there, >>it blew out. Then I guess in some sense of time we looked at it and >>realized, no, actually it just collapsed. That's what blew out the >>windows, not that there was an explosion there but that windows blew >>out. The realization hit that it's going to fall down, the top's coming >>off. I was still thinking -- there was never a thought that this whole >>thing is coming down. I thought that that blew out and stuff is starting >>to fly down. The top is going to topple off there. >>Interview, 10/25/01, New York Times >> >>Michael Donovan -- Captain (F.D.N.Y.) >>Anyway, with that I was listening, and there was an incredibly loud >>rumbling. I never got to look up. People started running for the >>entrances to the parking garages. They started running for the >>entrances. I started running without ever looking up. The roar became >>tremendous. I fell on the way to the parking garages. Debris was >>starting to fall all around me. I got up, I got into the parking >>garages, was knocked down by the percussion. I thought there had been an >>explosion or a bomb that they had blown up there. The Vista >>International Hotel was my first impression, that they had blown it up. >>I never got to see the World Trade Center coming down. >>Interview, 11/09/01, New York Times >> >>James Drury -- Assistant Commissioner (F.D.N.Y.) >>We were in the process of getting some rigs moved when I turned, as I >>heard a tremendous roar, explosion, and saw that the first of the two >>towers was starting to come down. >>... >>When the dust started to settle, I headed back down towards the World >>Trade Center and I guess I came close to arriving at the corner of Vesey >>and West again where we started to hear the second roar. That was the >>north tower now coming down. I should say that people in the street and >>myself included thought that the roar was so loud that the explosive - >>bombs were going off inside the building. Obviously we were later proved >>wrong. >>... >>The sight of the jumpers was horrible and the turning around and seeing >>that first tower come down was unbelieveable. The sound it made. As I >>said I thought the terrorists planted explosives somewhere in the >>building. That's how loud it was, crackling explosive, a wall. That's >>about it. Any questions? >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Thomas Fitzpatrick -- Deputy Commissioner for Administration (F.D.N.Y.) >>We looked up at the building straight up, we were that close. All we saw >>was a puff of smoke coming from about 2 thirds of the way up. Some >>people thought it was an explosion. I don't think I remember that. I >>remember seeing it, it looked like sparkling around one specific layer >>of the building. I assume now that that was either windows starting to >>collapse like tinsel or something. Then the building started to come >>down. My initial reaction was that this was exactly the way it looks >>when they show you those implosions on TV. I would have to say for three >>or four seconds anyway, maybe longer. I was just watching. It was >>interesting to watch, but the thing that woke everybody up was the cloud >>of black material. It reminded me of the 10 commandments when the green >>clouds come down on the street. The black cloud was coming down faster >>than the building, so whatever was coming down was going to hit the >>street and it was pretty far out. You knew it wasn't coming right down. >>Judging from where people were jumping before that, this cloud was much >>further. >>Interview, 10/16/01, New York Times >> >>Gary Gates -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>I looked up, and the building exploded, the building that we were very >>close to, which was one tower. The whole top came off like a volcano. >>... >>So now both towers have been hit by a plane. The north tower was >>burning. So the explosion, what I realized later, had to be the start of >>the collapse. It was the way the building appeared to blowout from both >>sides. I'm looking at the face of it, and all we see is the two sides of >>the building just blowing out and coming apart like this, as I said, >>like the top of a volcano. >>Interview, 10/12/01, New York Times >> >>Kevin Gorman -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.)

In my conversation with Lieutenant Evangelista, never >>mentioning this to him, he questioned me and asked me if I saw low-level >>flashes in front of the building, and I agreed with him because I >>thought -- at that time I didn't know what it was. I mean, it could have >>been as a result of the building collapsing, things exploding, but I saw >>a flash flash flash and then it looked like the building came down. >>... >>[It was at] the lower level of the building. You know like when they >>demolish a building, how when they blow up a building, when it falls >>down? That's what I thought I saw. >>... >>He said did you see anything by the building? And I said what do you >>mean by see anything? He said did you see flashes? I said, yes, well, I >>thought it was just me. He said no, I saw them too. >>... >>I know about the explosion on the upper floors. This was like at eye >>level. I didn't have to go like this. Because I was looking this way. >>I'm not going to say it was on the first floor or the second floor, but >>somewhere in that area I saw to me what appeared to be flashes. >>Interview, 10/03/01, New York Times >> >>Gregg Hansson -- Lieutenant (F.D.N.Y.) >>That's basically where we were. Then a large explosion took place. In my >>estimation that was the tower coming down, but at that time I did not >>know what that was. I thought some type of bomb had gone off. I was, I >>believe, ahead of the rest of the firefighters and officers there. I >>made it to the corner, and I took about four running steps this way when >>you could feel the rush of the wind coming at you. I believed that that >>was a huge fireball coming at the time. >>Interview, 10/09/01, New York Times >> >>Timothy Julian -- Firefighter (F.D.N.Y.) [Ladder 118] >>We came out from 90 West, made a left, headed east, and right when we >>got to the corner of Washington and Albany, that's when I heard the >>building collapse. >>First I thought it was an explosion. I thought maybe there was bomb on >>the plane, but delayed type of thing, you know secondary device. >>... >>You know, and I just heard like an explosion and then cracking type of >>noise, and then it sounded like a freight train, rumbling and picking up >>speed, and I remember I looked up, and I saw it coming down. >>Interview, 12/26/01, New York Times >> >>Art Lakiotes -- Chief (F.D.N.Y.) [Safety Command] >>Tower one now comes down. Same thing but this time some of us take off >>straight down West Street, because we realized later on, subconsciously >>we wanted to be near buildings.

As we walked through those revolving >>doors, that's when we felt the rumble. I felt the rumbling, and then I >>felt the force coming at me. I was like, what the hell is that? In my >>mind it was a bomb going off. The pressure got so great, I stepped back >>behind the columns separating the revolving doors. Then the force just >>blew past me. It blew past me it seemed for a long time. In my mind I >>was saying what the hell is this and when is it going to stop? Then it >>finally stopped, that pressure which I thought was a concussion of an >>explosion. It turns out it was the down pressure wind of the floors >>collapsing on top of each other. At that point everything went black, >>and then the collapse came. It just rained on top of us. Everything >>came. It rained debris forever. >>Interview, 12/12/01, New York Times >> >>Julio Marrero -- E.M.T.
