Heartbreaking. That's the only word that comes to my head when I think of this day, see pictures, or videos. This day was absolutely heartbreaking for the people affected and terrifying for the people who survived it. I see pictures and videos of people having out of windows 50 stories above the ground begging for someone to come save them. People jumped out of buildings because they thought they'd have a better chance of surviving. I can't stand to think about this day because I just feel for every single person affected my this terrible disaster.
