I Was There
Published: 11 months ago Views: 78
I had watched the first building burning and papers were flying in the air all over. I had just gotten off the S.I. ferry walking thru battery park when the second jet screamed above me. I actually cheered because I thought it was some fire fighting plane.Only had a few seconds to process what was going on and to my horror watched it crash into the second building. Till these day whenever I hear anything above me I must look up. I owned a small business in 4 wtc. I called my wife told her to call my mother shortly after all phones were out. I took the next boat back home.
