Columbus, Ohio (CNN)Donald Trump said Monday that he witnessed people jumping out of the Twin Towers on 9/11 from the view in his apartment.
"Many people jumped and I witnessed it, I watched that. I have a view -- a view in my apartment that was specifically aimed at the World Trade Center," Trump said Monday during a rally in Columbus, Ohio.
"And I watched those people jump and I watched the second plane hit ... I saw the second plane hit the building and I said, 'Wow that's unbelievable,'" Trump continued.
At least 200 people are believed to have jumped from the Twin Towers after planes struck the towers in an attack that claimed more than 2,600 lives.
The Republican presidential contender lives in Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan, more than four miles away from where the World Trade Center towers once stood. Trump has lived in the 5th Avenue tower since before the attacks, according to media reports pre-dating 9/11.
The Trump campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment asking how Trump witnessed people jumping out of the Twin Towers from more than four miles away.
Trump on Monday also dug into his claim that Muslims in New Jersey celebrated the terrorist attacks on 9/11, a claim that has been widely debunked by multiple fact-checkers.

No.
Trump said he saw a video on television of thousands celebrating in New Jersey.
What he saw was a video of celebrations in Palestine. Everyone knows that, including Trump.
Trump’s perfect memory ain’t so perfect.
What’s your excuse?
The initial claim was that nobody danced.
That everyone was lying.
It has been shown that muzzies did dance.
Anyone saying otherwise or trying to negate that fact are muslim apologists.
The Capitol is about 10 miles from my house. I can see it clearly from my balcony in Alexandria. If people were jumping off the roof, I could not see that with the naked eye but could easily see it with my binoculars, which I keep by the door for bird watching.
9-11 was a perfectly clear day. So yes, it's possible.

Muslims celebrated.
Why are you so intent on being an apologist for them and the left?
i was only about 10 miles away on staten island. if i would have left for wrok at the normal time i would have been passing it as they hit.
wouldn’t have been in any danger but would have been stuck in NYC
went to give blood. everyone was crying.
Got butchered by p/t medical assistant taking blood. Saved the tissue, dont know why.
one of the worst days of our lives.
you know what, who gives a @#$@$# if he saw it or not, it HAPPENED!!
good for him for reminding the country that Americans jumped NINETY STORIES to their death because of muslims.
@#$@#$ islamaphoia. and @#$@#$ islam. kill them all and if i go to hell for that so be it
Indeed. I also recall the media stopped showing footage of people jumping after a day or so because it might "inflame hatred against muslims."
Needs to be seen over and over bump to the top!
