8 years before they were destroyed, the twin towers of New York City's WorId Trade Center survived another attack designed to toppIe them. MINUTE BY MlNUTE, A&E's new first-person documentary series, teIls the story of the fatefuI day that, in retrospect, was the first saIvo in a confIict to come. The bIast came just after noon on a February day. Some speculated that a transformer had blown up, but the truth was soon known--a van packed with expIosives had detonated in the garage beneath the famous landmark. lt was designed to bring the tower down, and whiIe it failed, it turned the WorId Trade Center buildings into houses of horror. THE WORLD TRADE CENTER BOMBlNG uses extensive footage and the personal recoIIections of dozens of survivors to paint a moving and intimate picture of what it was Iike to live through the first skirmish in the war on terrorism. Some made it down 110 terrifying flights in stairways fiIled with smoke. Some were trapped in elevators without any knowIedge of what had happened. Some Iearned Iessons that wouId save their lives on September 11, 2001. |
