”..heard a huge explosion..”, “..it looked like a war zone..”, “..no one expected the building to collapse…” - George Sleigh, North Tower survivor
source: News Messenger May 18, 2010
When George Sleigh walked into the North Tower of the World Trade Center at 7:30 a.m. on Sept. 11, 2001, it was a picturesque day.
“It was a beautiful morning, a crisp … morning,” he said. “The sun was coming up behind the World Trade Center, which at that time dominated the view of New York.”
Two hours later, he had to make his way down 90 flights of steps after a plane hit each tower in a terrorist attack. He made his way down to the concourse level.
“As I stepped outside the stairwell, the devastation was incredible,” he said. “It looked like a war zone.”
Then the South Tower collapsed.
