        <description>MSNBC news excerpt. WTC 7 collapses while Ashleigh Banfield interviews a resident. 0:05 - Likely an explosion has occured before switching to Banfield. Unknown if it corresponds to an observed building movement, approx. 90 seconds before the East Penthouse event. See research from various people compiled by "Major_Tom": http://www.sharpprintinginc.com/911/index.php?module=pagemaster&amp;PAGE_user_op=view_page&amp;PAGE_id=314&amp;MMN_position=652:652 This early "rocking" of the building was (probably) overlooked by NIST WTC investigators. There's no mention in their reports. A "thud" is audible at 0:24, shortly before East Penthouse falls rapidly through the building. The huge dust/smoke cloud at Barclay St./West Broadway has not largely developed at the time of the "thud". Ashleigh Banfield, interviewee Fabiana? and some bystanders turn their heads toward the sound source from south. Banfield shouts "Oh my god". A raw camera version was not obtained/released by NIST. 1:38 - Also the remarkable phone interview with FDNY EMS lieutenant David Restuccio. Restuccio was killed in a car crash on August 27, 2012, slammed by fast-driving BMW SUV: http://www.nydailynews.com/new-york/retired-fdny-ems-killed-staten-island-crash-engaged-married-article-1.1146719 Source of the Excerpt: NIST FOIA #09-42 Release 25 Subfolder: 42A0126 - G25D38 File: DVD Video Container Total File Size: 3.41 GB Subfolder Link: http://911datasets.org/index.php/SFolder:ETLGSOYQ4ZTOPQJRM4ADCJGBL3Z4D2HQ MPEG-2 video by NIST, has been interlace deblocked, HQ deinterlaced, and gamma-aware resized to 720p by keeping the original display aspect ratio.
