9:03:02: Flight 175 crashes into the south face of the South Tower (2 WTC) of the World Trade Center, between floors 77 and 85. Parts of the plane, including the starboard engine, leave the building from its east and north sides, falling to the ground six blocks away.[2]
South face (of second tower hit)
This video is looking slightly North East (on the assumption the towers are perfectly aligned NSEW)
I swear it still looks like the angle is west but if the video were looking north east, you should definitely see the plane approach since you would be looking at the south face of WTC 2.
The video IS facing west, taken from the east river on a boat. The bridge in the foreground is the Brooklyn bridge. The building with the green pointed top is the Woolworth building (which today would probably be blocked from view thanks to the newer 8 Spruce Street tower). The shorter building in the foreground is most likely 333 Pearl Street apartments. The smoke plumes blew towards the South-Southeast over Brooklyn: https://geospatialmedia.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/1.jpg. The maker of this video is facing the EAST face of the towers, and can visibly see the NORTH face of the towers. The plane struck the 2nd tower, the south tower, on its south face. As such you SHOULD see a plane going left to right on this video, but you don't as it was digitally manipulated out of the video.
