    That's too bad. Especially having to sit through that Knight movie.

    Wow. That was incredible. To see from the inside...man. It brought back a lot of emotions for me.

    It took me straight back to 9/11. I sat there in silence with tears in my eyes. Incredibly powerful...and done in excellent taste.

    Although I was in Houston when this happend watching that documentary made me feel like I was there. The thundering crash of bodies hitting the ground or the top was horrific to say the least even though they did not show it.

    Just listening to the Firefighters and Emt's describing what they saw was just as gory as seeing it first hand. I think by showing this documentary the way they did as less as unedited as they possibly could should be a wake up call on how extremely layed back our security and laws are before this all happend.

    Could this have been avoided? Yes I think so.

    You said it all, TroyB.

    Just the sound of those falling bodies hitting the ground and awning sent shivers through my spine. Like the one fireman said, imagine how bad it must be in the building to have to jump as your only other option.

    This was a remarkable documentary and very harrowing, as well. I think I have blocked out a lot of the emotion of 9-11 because it was so painful to even think about. I am glad I watched this show, though.

    The sound of the bodies hitting the tower lobbies is easily the most horrible thing I have ever heard in my life.

    That was so sick. Nothing was really mentioned about that during all of the coverage. That has got to be one of the worst ways to die.

    I was also horrified when they were first entering 1 WTC and the cameraman said that he saw a person on fire to his right and didn't want to film it.

    It should have been universally telecast on all network channels.
