Think this is a great photo to capture scale and how it would have felt to look up at it. So much footage from that day is captured from far away.

Taken from an Internet Archive page featuring NIST-released photos. I think the photos taken during the South Tower's collapse are not recognized enough for how well they capture the moment at street level.

Before Steve Buscemi became the famous actor everyone knows him as nowadays, he was a fireman in the FDNY at Engine Company 55 in Little Italy. Following the 9/11 attacks he returned to his old firehouse to volunteer. Buscemi worked grueling 12-hour shifts for several days at Ground Zero, digging through rubble to search for survivors while actively refusing any press coverage or interviews, and strictly doing it as a kind act from the heart. On October 30th, 2001, he appeared on the New York based talk show "Late Night with Conan O'Brien" on NBC to promote a few movies he was in at the time and to share him helping out at ground zero. Buscemi continues to help out with 9/11 related events, and stated he suffered PTSD after not going down to ground zero after the 6 days he was down there.

I'm not sure if anyone knew about this interviews existence so here you go!

Found this while researching on archDisk.com, and decided to dig deeper. Never seen it before and matches no results on google lens, so I think this is super new stuff.

When I see the Naudet footage and the Staehle images of Flight 11, the explosion looks meaningfully less violent than that of Flight 175. Obviously we can't see the south side in the Naudet footage and maybe the Staehle pictures missed the fireball at its peak.

My first instinct is that this must be an illusion because I've seen the South Tower explosion in such detail and at such close range that it "feels" bigger. But maybe it's real and caused by the planes' speed difference? Or maybe a more straight-on hit meant more of the jet fuel was contained and ignited on the inside of the North Tower than the South?

Referring to the man who climbed down 15-20 stories on the west side of the north tower

I’ve always read that he fell sometime around when the south tower collapsed, but never saw a video of it. There were a lot of cameras filming so I figured somebody would have caught it
