I refrain from digital image manipulation. In my opinion, any so-called 'enhancement', as observed in similar video creations elsewhere, is tampering with evidence. I consider this video document as material evidence in the disaster investigation. My objective is to use as much raw footage as ever available for a highly authentic document, and to avoid edited material if possible. I also preserved artifacts 'as is'.
However, I adapted all footage to NTSC standard (SD), doubled the frame rate to 59.94 fps (60000/1001). Though working with, whenever possible, uncompressed footage, Rumble is using their own encoding service and compression standards.

Times have been established through synchronization with Cindy Weil's footage and cross check with CNN as well as 1010 WINS News Radio time. Timing is also about definitions. For instance, I define "South Tower collapse initiated" as the moment when the eastern wall of the building was visibly buckling inward.

This video has been created for exclusively educational, non-profit purposes. The usage of commercial footage shall be regarded under the conditions of 17 U.S. Code § 17 / 17 U.S. Code § 512 (f) (Fair use).
Dedicated to the lives lost on September 11, 2001, and in the aftermath of that day. May they rest in Peace.
Thank you for taking the time to inform yourself.
