for the second. I watched that live. It was surreal. Bryant Gumbel was yammering away and suddenly you see the 2nd plane coming in and go into WTC 2 (the angle was such that it was almost head on but disappeared from the camera lens due to the building obstruction). Gumbel must have been watching the monitor and thought it was a rerun of the 1st crash. What a confusing, horrible moment for live TV.
