Good deal. Later... One of those other guys at the home told me to look at this original news footage. Is this real?

Unfortunately it looks real. I was at the crash site two weeks ago and talked to the guide there (a local woman) at the temporary memorial museum. And looked at all the scrap books filled with news photos.
First responders found an intense fire and a small crater, which was incredibly small but very deep...over 40 feet deep. They found the flight recorder/black box 25 feet into the ground. The FBI and other agencies spent weeks, often on their knees, scouring the meadows, hills and tree tops picking up shreds of flesh and debris.
The most incredible thing I learned was that the first responders found the two largest pieces of wreckage at the site were a burning aircraft tire...and a Bible.
The Bible, located 25-50 feet from the burning crater... had a scorched cover but the pages were open and intact and readable. It was later determined that this Bible belonged to a young man on Flight 93 who was a Buddhist.
