He was in the explosion. He was in the lobby and then one-- this, the third explosion, the whole lobby collapsed on us.
What was it like? What was it like? Oh, it was like- Like hell. Straight hell ... the whole building just collapsed on us inside the lobby.
Was that a secondary explosion? Yes, it was.
That was the plan. Yeah, definitely secondary explosion. We was inside waiting to go upstairs.
We were on our way upstairs, the whole fucking thing blew, and it just, it just collapsed on everybody inside the lobby.
So was the first tower coming down, secondary?
I don't know about the first one, but I know the second one, it was terrible.
Then there was a third one too after that one.
After that one? Yes, sir. You were in the- Everybody was inside the elevator waiting to go upstairs, and it just, it just let loose. Everything just let loose inside the building.
So what, what you're telling me is that there was a plane or whatever hit the building, then a secondary explosion.
There was like three explosions after that. We came in after the, after the fire.
We came when the fire was going on already.
We was in the staging area inside the building waiting to go upstairs.
Four airplanes hit the building. Four airplanes hit the building.
The whole lobby collapsed on the lobby inside.
Just mayhem after that? Just everybody trying to make their way out.
Trying to help all the brothers get out.
People, lot of people trapped inside. I was sitting in the room with the Navy Yard across the street from it.
We watched the first explosion. I even watched the building, or a black, very large airplane fly right into the second building.
It came out of the south. Right, right in front of our eyes. Just, it was so surreal, like a movie scene.
The second explosion, the third explosion, tell us about it.
We were in the lobby for the third one. It collapsed.
It was on the side here on the other one.
People don't understand. There may be more.
Any one of these fucking buildings could blow up. This ain't done yet.
This is a rescue work operation. There could be no rescue in there.
Could be-- nothing, no more to rescue. We're in the building trying to help them, and it's exploding on the other side of the building.
