Wookiee, thats a bit OTT.

Each tower holds 1,000 people.

Of course, it was rush hour, so we don't know how many people were just walking nearby, or driving down the road outside when it happened.

I still feel 50,000 is a bit steep though...

The passenger plane that crashed into the tower could hold up to 300, don't know how many were in it though.

Not being funny, but if you're more than a few stories up, throwing yourself out of the tower would kil you anyway.

It must be horrible to have to make that decision.

I feel physically sick thinking about it.

Whatever reaction the US have, I have to say it's probably justified.

Are you watching the Pictures on TV, oh my god, not wanting to sound disrespectful but it really does look like something off Independance Day.
