World News anchor Charles Gibson spoke with some of the student survivors of the shooting massacre at Virginia Tech, including two young women who were on the second floor of Norris Hall when Seung-Hui Cho began a shooting rampage that left 33 people, including Cho, dead.The students described how they helped jam a table against the door of their classroom to keep Seung-Hui Cho out as he was firing shots. They succeeded, but as they huddled on the floor, pressing the legs of the table against the door, he fired high high into the air, sending bullets through the door, right above their head.
Gibson asked the students when they first heard shots, "9:40 exactly, I was looking at my watch, and seeing how many minutes were left for math class to be over with," commented another senior, Theresa Walsh.
"You just hear a loud crack followed by 'bam, bam, bam," the 22-year-old added. "I'm the closest one to the door so I got up and went in the hallway and that's when I saw the professor across from me had this horified look on his face and then a few seconds later I caught aglimpse out of the corner of my eye and I saw the shooter and he had just walked out of the classrom, and was walking down the hall towards our classroom."
