While I was watching that footage from the NYPD helicopter and you heard the comments from the pilots, I thought is there any doubt that after the first collapse they would have rescued people from the roof if they had seen anyone up there?

They thought they could but in reality when they got up close the wind up there coupled with the intense heat from the fire. (you gotta remember the heat was from jet fuel). The temperature was over 2,000 degrees. Could you see them landing a helicopter in that mess without it exploding or they killing themselves?

But did you hear that pilot say they could SEE the people, but there was nothing they could do?
