First Frisbee, Empire State Building Plane Crash, Futuristic Car: This episode was narrated by Jay Thomas. No news story has been bigger than the attacks of September 11, 2001. But 9/11 wasn't the first time that an airplane flew into a New York City skyscraper. Within the Museum of the City of New York one artifact tells the incredible story of a US B-25 crashing into the Empire State Building on July 28,1945. The Thomas Flyer automobile and George Shuster win the world’s first round the world automobile race. The 1908 NY to Paris race proved to be more than just an epic adventure. It’s the arena in which George Shuster and the Thomas Flyer prove the automobile is the future of transportation. And at Yale University an old tin pie plate tells the tale of a pie maker, a UFO fanatic, and some Yale students and their collaboration to create one of the most used and most loved toys of all time. by Mysteries at the Museum
