I lived in NY at the time. Saw the buildings burning while on train going over the Manahattan Bridge. When I got to work someone said that one of the buildings fell. I couldn't understand what he was talking about. I thought maybe the large communications spire fell off.
When I got to work I turned on a television in the office. Saw an image of one of the towers and a pillar of smoke next to it. Took a minute to realize that the second building wasn't behind the smoke.... it was gone. And then the second building fell.
Could never get myself to go to Ground Zero.
