One thing I never knew, but learned from the recent thread about the "WTC Survivor's Story", was that people were jumping from the North Tower before the second plane ever hit the South Tower. People in the South Tower were watching out their windows as people jumped from the North tower. I always wondered how many people were looking out the windows of the two towers directly at the planes coming straight at them as they sipped their coffee.

Excellent special, BTW.
But I know what story you are talking about. A young lady (who later perished) was telling the survivor (one of four who lived above the crash site) how terrible it was to watch and he replied that, yes, people are dying.
I couldn't imagine how awful it must've been.
