A trader’s-eye view of the meltdown

Jeremy Frommer, a longtime Wall Streeter who now runs the TFG Investments hedge fund in Englewood, N.J., posted this video to give people an idea what Thursday’s free fall looked like from the inside. The video is of the TFG trading floor, where the traders focus on publicly traded stocks, options and futures, Frommer said.

“In the middle of the worst drop we’ve seen since the 2008 crisis, we thought this footage was too good not to share,” Frommer told Fortune’s Melanie Linder on the phone Friday.
