I was in Midtown that day.  Have a crazy story of my own but doesn’t compare to two others.

First one is that one of my wife’s co-workers was on the first plane to hit the towers.  She found out about an hour or so after they confirmed the flight number.  Cant even imagine the fear those people felt as they were scraping the top of those buildings going 500mph right into impact.

The second is even more chilling.  The next year was hosting a bday party for my daughter.  At the end of the party when the parents show up to pick up the kids, I start chatting up one of the dads.  We ask each other what we do, he tells me he works for Cantor.  I must have turned white as a ghost.  He says, yeah......I was there.  Turns out he had a visitor that morning who was stuck in the building lobby cuz he forgot his ID.  His secretary, who was 8 months pregnant said “don’t worry about it, I’ll go down and get him.”  Guy days “no way, not in your condition.  You sit down and I will go get him.”  First plane hit as he walked off the elevator into the lobby.  You wanna talk about survivor guilt???  I couldn’t speak.

It’s written about in a book called “102 Minutes”.
