One of the most poignant 9/11 videos I have watched

I don't think this is necessarily new footage, but it is definitely one of the most poignant videos I've watched about 9/11 thus far.
I had the video saved in my "watch later" list for a while, and about a month ago, I finally got around to watching it. I watched the entire duration of the video, and all throughout, you can hear all sorts of sounds from the plaza - fires crackling (or papers floating onto the ground), the muzak, the sirens, bodies hitting the ground, etc.
The footage is timed with audio recordings as well as shots of footage taken of the plaza and the towers.
I don't know what drew me so far into this video, but I barely took my eyes off of my TV screen for the entire hour and fifteen minutes that it was on for. Eventually, the initial footage of the towers during the first half of the video or so will transition to new footage of the towers, and some of it was footage I had not seen before or in a while.
Give it a watch if you can, and props to the person who compiled the various footages and audio recordings. It's definitely eerie to say the least, and my heart aches for the people in and around the towers on that days as well as those in the Pentagon and on the four doomed flights. 💔
