[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sophomore at NYU. [b]Felt and heard the first plane fly about 1000 feet over my head near Union Square. Then watch it hit the South Tower [/b]as I walked to class.

My friend sitting next to me was discreetly listening to a radio in class. He told me it was an attack. I interrupted a 200 person lecture to tell our professor that a 2nd plane hit the other Tower. Professor didn't believe me and started yelling at me! This was pre wifi, but then a bunch of kids start getting cell phone calls from their parents. It was nuts.

Watched both Towers collapse in-person, about 2 miles away. Had two friends sleeping on the floor of my dorm for a week, because their dorm was at Water Street only a few blocks from the disaster site. One kid left his window cracked open and entire room was covered in dust and debris.

The one thing you never forget about 9/11: that acrid smell. I've never smelled anything like that again in my life.[/quote]

The first plane hit the north tower[/quote]

I was a sophomore at Columbia and agree, I will never ever forget that smell.[/quote]
