"At the time, I didn't realize that," Giuliani said. "As it was going on, you were so busy. There was no way to know who you were actually talking to. And now when I talk to people who watched it on television, which makes up most of America, there are a lot of experiences that I didn't have. They were sitting there watching it happen, and I was sort of in the middle of it."

Giuliani talked in further detail about the morning of Sept. 11.
