I heard about the Black Tag Lady quite a while ago and I feel like I've fallen into a rabbit hole. I just can't stop thinking about her and I'd like to talk about it with someone who might be more knowledgeable than me.

Something that I’ve been thinking about lately is the specifics that the families may or may not have received. I know there were very few bodies to lay to rest, but were families just told that their loved ones died in 9/11 or did they get more info such as “last seen on 90th floor” “broke legs escaping” “burned in lift” ? If they did get that kind of info was there an official investigation done into the whereabouts of each victim or did the families have to scrape info together themselves to create a fuller picture?

“Died in 9/11” is so vague. I really hope they got a decent amount of information because I can imagine that the not knowing how exactly and where exactly would be torture.

Made a new post that was more organized, bigger update

This post is still in the works and will be edited when I get more information

“9:30-9:45 - (possibly) 97th Floor, South Side, Western Corner  (No Photos or Videos. Something falling from the south side at around 9:25. This is most likely not them, but some people say it is, but the time doesn't make sense: Video)

Something white falls from the South Side

‘ (Time Not Mentioned. Camermans Interview) - Possibly 95th-107th Floor, Possibly North or East side. "There was another guy that did it off the other tower…he just like launched himself like full on body like nothing mattered” (This description doesn't match anyone else that had been seen falling and was the first confirmed "jumper")

People hanging out of the windows on the Northwest side of 86th Floor on the North Side, it's possible that someone fell from this area but wasn't seen or reportedThere were maybe some people who fell from the North Side that had not been reported or seen but it could be possible no one fell from that side

North: 1 (actual number is unknown because it's possible that someone fell without being seen or reported and an in the cameraman interview, they don't mention which side)
South: 2
East: 8
West: 2
Unknown Side: 1

Total: 14

I am looking for footage from what I believe was a news crew down at city hall on the morning of 9/11…I believe they were covering the mayoral election.

I don’t believe AA11 impact is shown, but you can hear it. A man is heard saying “what the hell was that?…..Come to us come to us”

I’ve tried Google, YouTube, and ChatGPT to find the source and cannot. Any help would be appreciated.

Edit: footage found! Thank you

After the 25th anniversary I started thinking about the awful randomness of that day and how each of the towers was oriented. Many might not know, but the towers' cores were not oriented the same which played a role in how many died. The north tower's core was oriented length facing north-south, and the south towers core was oriented length facing east-west. The importance of this is that the north tower, which was hit head-on from the north, had maximum core damage due to its core's orientation, sealing the fate of all those from floors 92 and above. All elevators and stairs were destroyed. The south tower on the other hand, was hit at an angle from the south, and its core width not facing the direction of impact, allowed one stairwell to potentially remain intact to the upper floors. Of course, this became a rather mute point because the south tower did not stand for very long due to the angled collision of the plane damaging the northeast external column critically. If you look at some pics out there, with the towers backlit, you can clearly see what I'm talking about in reference to the cores layout in the towers. This is very relevant to understanding how so many died in especially the north tower.
