I've read many timelines for the whole event, and they are all very specific in mentioning footage of the first crash not being publicly available until the day after.

Do you actually think the French film crew said to the firefighters, "wait can we drop this footage off to the media before we go and try to save any lives?"

COME ON quit lying to yourselfs!

The only footage of the first plane is from the french brothers following the fire crew, only shown the next day (what with the french brothers being involved and unable to get out) and i think some security camera footage that came out even later

the ONLY footage shown on sept 11 2001 was of the second plane hitting


They showed the smoke coming from the first tower continually until the second plane hit, after that they repeatedly showed the second plane hitting.
Do people even read these question and click the links?

Answer by eldude
the footage from both was aired on the same day. Not sure where you are but I saw both events, as they occurred on the news, then they went on to talk about the plane near camp david.
You are mistaken. I saw the first plane hit the building then as I watched the news, the second one hit.
Regardless of what who say, what is your point?
I don't remember for sure if I saw the first plane! Come to think of it, all I can say for sure was that I got online that morning before turning on the tv, and saw an article on MSN.com about it, showing the smoke coming out of the building. Then I turned on the tv and as I watched tv the second plane hit. Then, they went on to talk about the plane near camp david. But regardless, I still don't see the point of your question.
