A man has released footage of the Twin Towers falling that has never been seen before, more than 20 years after the terrible events of September 11, 2001.
This video, which shows one of the worst events in modern history from a different angle, helps us understand it better. The person who took the picture, Kei Sugimoto, just recently shared this video that had been kept secret for more than 22 years.
Nineteen members of the jihadist terror group Al-Qaeda took over four planes on September 11, 2001, and used them as weapons in a coordinated attack on the United States.
There were two planes that crashed into the World Trade Center in New York City. The Twin Towers fell, killing almost 3,000 people.2 What happened after this event changed U.S. foreign policy and changed the world for good.
When Kei Sugimoto was cleaning out his closet, he found boxes of old video tapes. One of them was video he took on 9/11 with a Sony VX2000 camera. Sugimoto quickly digitized the footage because he was worried that some of the tapes had already become damaged. This showed a view of the Twin Towers’ collapse that had never been seen before.
The video was taken from the roof of a building at 64 St. Marks Place in New York City. It shows the Twin Towers falling from the north, which is a view that isn’t often seen in other videos. As the towers fill with black smoke and fall, they serve as a chilling reminder of what happened that day. “This footage gives a unique view that can’t be seen from the south or east,” said one viewer.
Since it came out on July 23, 2023, Sugimoto’s video has gone viral and been talked about on many social media sites. A lot of people were shocked that new video of the Twin Towers falling could be found after all these years. Somebody on Reddit said, “It’s crazy that we’re almost 23 years out and still getting new footage.”
The release of this video is a powerful reminder of how important it is to keep historical records safe. “Makes me wonder how much history is being stored in people’s attics or basements waiting to be found,” one Reddit user said.
This video not only gives us a new view of 9/11, but it also helps us remember an event that changed the 21st century.
The fact that Kei Sugimoto released this video adds another layer to the story of 9/11. The new angle gives a brand-new visual account of the Twin Towers’ collapse, making sure that future generations will be able to see and understand how big the events were that day.
The video keeps getting passed around, and it’s both a record of history and a reminder of how 9/11 changed everything.
