Hey guys, the cameraman is Marty Glembotzky. I've done my research. He's still active and with us. Just thought you'd all like to give him some love.
-
The literal balls on those firemen driving towards what everyone was running from.
-
When he said "You can see the two towers," that was the last moment when you could see the two towers.
-
I really like how he was checking behind if his friend with a camera is ok, not leaving him behind alone. True friend from work.
-
“WE BETTER GET OUT OF THE WAY” So glad he was encouraging his camera man to run instead of leaving him
-
Camera man did a great job filming while staying alive.
-
Crazy to believe it’s been 22 years already 😢condolences goes out everybody involved in the attacks
-
I never fully realized what it must’ve been like to see the towers fall until I came across the videos on this channel. It’s so heartbreaking
-
Poor camera man. He had to run for his life with a huge, heavy camera
-
"its not worth it guys, we dont know what we're breathing in" that's a smart man
-
At 3:13... Seeing those fire engines march into the cloud everybody is desperately running away from... Not knowing what waits ahead and still pushing through... Goosebumps. Make sure to always remember the first responders
-
5:13 The fact that the camera man stopped at this moment to capture the collapse while his coworker/news reporter ran is so crazy to me. Just imagine him thinking he must record this moment in history while everyone is running past him.
-
This camera man did an incredible job. #1 rule of filming any significant event is never turn the camera off as everything is unpredictable. Documentation is important, props to this guy.
-
"You can see the two towers. Huge explosion..... now raining debris on all of us.... WE BETTER GET OUT OF THE WAY" The fear in that man'a voice scares me
-
I'm not American, but every time I watch videos like this, tears rolled down in my eyes. I feel guilty that I could not give my shoulder to the families of those who died.
-
Imagine trying to run for your life while recording and reporting. Truly brave.
-
I can't even give enough respect to the camera man running,while holding a heavy camera
-
The man who said “you don’t know what we’re breathing in” is so important. Not a lot of people think about those details during a desperate time like this, and so many survivors ended up succumbing to illnesses from what they inhaled. His mindfulness in that moment probably saved the people around him big time.

All the reporters from ABC New York 7 are still on TV Including NJ Burkett.

Still gives me chills. I’m shocked and grateful that they withstood the impact they did and still allowed so many to escape. Had the planes hit and hour later it would have been utterly horrific beyond what it was to begin with. Hard to to even comprehend it regardless. For all those who have been to the towers just the thought of those massive buildings collapsing I can’t get my head around to this day. My deepest respect to all that day.
