Remembering 9/11: The Today Show and an eerie cutaway to a commercial

https://archive.org/details/nbc200109110831-0912#

If you fast forward to 14:06 (on-screen, it's 8:45a), Katie Couric is finishing an interview with Harry Belafonte and cuts away to a commercial which then cuts to an exterior shot outside of 30 Rock in NYC.

If you place your ear very near your speaker, or, better yet, you listen to it thru headphones, you can hear the distinct sound of a jetliner passing overhead. You will see a few people looking up.

Given this is midtown Manhattan and the time is 8:45a, the sound is likely from AA Flight 11 on its way to smashing into the North Tower of the World Trade Center.

It will give you goosebumps.
