555 California is the location for the 1974 film, The Towering Inferno. My brother was a tiller driver on an SFFD truck that appeared in the opening scenes, while I was a Bank of America employee on the 9th floor, not in the film. In the news video you will see a tiller and Mr. Ortiz, a witness who shot video of the falling glass. He is interviewed at the exact location where I often parked my patrol car.

I remember that this film ran in Austria under the title "Flammendes Inferno", but I didn't watch it. Maybe I will do this now, a DVD should be available in our public library.
