★★★★★ · Original Ground Zero · Spuzz · 2018-02-21

Pretty frightening film all about the construction of the WTC. We see the original Ground Zero, the construction of the girders (they look too familiar like the girder that was the unofficial memorial of the disaster), installation of electronic equipment, and finally, the people working there. I doubt the people shown in this movie were still there during the WTC attack.. But still it's a frightening thought. A MUST SEE on this site!
