Not according to the 911 telephone transcripts. Someone called and said they were one of 40 people who had made it to the roof and asked 911 for instructions on how to save their lives. The people in Tower One said that the excape doors into the stairwell leading up to the roof or down to the groudn were blocked with debris that had fallen during impact. But there WERE 40 people on the roof as of 20 minutes BEFORE the collapse.

I sure would like to hear those tapes. Do you have a link? They had a Port Authority spokesman on Fox a few days ago defending their decision to lock the roof doors to prevent suicides.

I hope what you heard is true but after that press conference I would like to hear the tapes myself.

Excerpts of 911 log on Sept. 11 reveal unfolding terror

The Associated Press
10/1/01 9:00 PM


NEW YORK (AP) -- The 911 entries started at 8:47 a.m. with the words "BLDG EXPLOSION." Incident No. 0727 quickly unfolded as a diary of terror, as call after desperate call rolled in from the World Trade Center.


Excerpts from the log of the dispatcher for the Fire Department's Emergency Management Service were published Sunday in the Daily News.


The entries were published much as they appeared when they flashed on the computer screen Sept. 11. The time of each call is noted, and messages are abbreviated. MC stands for male caller, FC for female caller, STS for "states."


08:50:12 MC STS PLANE JUST FLEW INTO WORL TRADE CENTER---POSS COMMERCIAL AIRPLANE.


Then the calls began pouring in from One World Trade Center.


08:56:44 MC STS HE IS ON THE 87 FLR--STS 4 PERSON THERE W HIM--STS THERE IS FIRE.

09:04:50 MC--STS 103 FLR-CAN'T GET OUT--FIRE ON FLR...PEOPLE GETTING SICK


A report from the police aviation unit came in, saying people were falling from the building.


The dimensions of the disaster suddenly grew.

Suddenly all calls from that building ended. Calls from the north tower continued.


10:12:35 MC STS HE CAN BARELY BREATHE...105TH FLR


The calls ended at 10:33 a.m. as abruptly as they had begun, with a horrifying final note: "ENTIRE TOWER DOWN."
