New ‘devastating’ footage shows the World Trade Center as it collapses from an never-before-seen angle on 9/11.

The horrific event took place nearly 23 years ago, when two planes collided into the Twin Towers in a deadly terrorist attack that targeted New York City.

Nearly 3,000 people lost their lives that day and many more died later due to complications.

Over two decades later, a lot of the events that took place that tragic day can still be viewed online, with footage of the second plane crash being captured on live TV.

However, it seems there are still unseen video clips of the day out there as one man has now shared what he filmed on September 11, 2001.

Posting on YouTube earlier this week, Kei Sugimoto uploaded video that he took “from the roof of 64 St Marks Place in NYC on a Sony VX2000 with teleconverter”.

His video has since gone viral on the likes of X, formerly Twitter, where users say it shows “new angles of the collapse”.

One user said: “This footage offers a unique perspective not seen from the south or east. You are watching these angles for the first time ever.”

Sugimoto’s video shows the towers billowing out black smoke before each eventually collapsing to the ground.

Some viewers took to Reddit to share their reactions, with one person saying: “It’s crazy that we’re almost 23 years out and still getting new footage.”

While another added: “Makes me wonder how much history is being stored in people’s attics or basements waiting to be unearthed.”

In the YouTube comments, Sugimonto explained further his decision to now release it after so long.

He wrote: “I was cleaning my closet and found boxes full of Hi-8, Digital-8, and DV tapes.

“When trying to play them back I noticed that maybe about a 3rd of them had demagnetized over time and were either blank, or suffering from major data corruption.

“After researching online I learned that video tapes are not immune from age even when stored in ideal conditions, so I frantically started to digitize them. Thus I'm just uploading the video now.”

He also added that while he did witness the second plane crash, he didn’t film it.

“If I remember correctly,” he wrote, “I think I ran to get my video camera after seeing the second plane crash sensing that this was no ordinary accident.”

Users thanked him for sharing the “unique perspective” and called the “crystal clear” footage “devastating”.
