Even if they did it at great peril and with a loss of almost 240 ships. That's real heroism right there. There's so many amazing feat done by the britsh during WWII that no one talks about. Sometime the Americans even try and make it their thing. Like that war movie U 571 where its made to look like the Americans changed the turn of the war by getting their hands on a enigma machine.

    The John J Harvey, a retired New York fireboat took part in this ferrying people across. During one of her trips the fire department radioed her to ask if her pumps still worked. When the captain said they did the fire department told them to drop the passengers off and return to the seawall along side the other fireboats pumping water.

      People heard what happened over the radio or saw what happened on TV and were already mobilizing on their own, that's how it happened so fast. That radio call was an afterthought, like official permission to do what they were going to do anyway.

There was absolutely no communications available, and I was not able to get home or call someone to look in on my cat. Luckily, my Mother, who's house is in NJ was able to house all the men employees over night & a female employee, who also lived in NJ, housed the ladies...A large Red Cross center is right down the street from where I live & after that first day, when I was able to travel again, I would see the workers from the sight coming down the train escalator covered in filth from working there, as I was on the up escalator heading home, all looking so very grim. It was a bit un-nerving seeing armed guards, in twos with rifles everywhere..on the streets and in the bus stations...as you can imagine, the smell was overpowering for a very long time...This has affected me very greatly & always will.......

Through tears, I can say that watching this video has been very healing for me. I am reminded how, in the weeks, months, following this horrifying event, we were all much kinder to each other; strangers asking each other how they were doing, and really listening to the answer. I am reminded of the horror of that day, but I am also reminded of the beauty of the people, from EVERYWHERE, that came together to help. Heaven and hell.

    Those boats saved so many lives that day, because so many people were saved from having prolonged exposure to the dust which has killed so many people in the intervening years. They were all true heroes because no-one knew what could happen next. I think there's some good videos about the NY Fire Department's role in saving people that day, at the cost of so many of their own lives. What they did that day to help the people in the WTC must be one of the bravest, most selfless things in history. One of the most incredible stories from that day was what happened in Stairwell B - the people trapped there were the only ones to survive the collapse of the towers.

    *9/11 included 2 planes striking the 2 towers of the WTC, killing the plane occupants and tower occupants. Another plane was hijacked headed to Pentagon, which hit, and another that was taken over by the passengers and it crashed, but they succeeded in stopping the plane from hitting whatever target the terrorists had in mind. There are phone messages left from them, to their loved ones, knowing the plane was going down.*

    My dad was at ground zero a week after the attacks to conduct an investigation for the USDOT on how the buildings buckled under the extreme heat and how the impact from the planes damaged the buildings from an architectural standpoint.. he said there was still smoldering debris even after 8 days, the smell of gasoline and leaking hydraulic fluid.. live wires and jagged metal sticking up along the strewn piles of concrete, cinder block, and ash that piled up several meters high.. it’s nothing he’ll never forget he says.. rip to all the victims of that tragic and miserable day.. 🕊️🙏🏽 you’ll never be forgotten

    There is one video, I just before. It was a teenage boy with red bandana, who just rush in the building to help them lead the survivor out of there but he do help almost 11 survivor I think out of the building and after that he died shortly after. There also made a tribute on him by wearing red bandana to show respect on teenage who help the survivor and guide them out.

    I read that at one point after the attack the search and rescue dogs got so sad and depressed because they were only pulling out dead pepole, that their handlers had to "bury themselve" so the dogs could find them alive a couple of times and have at least a bit of happiness that they were "rescuing" someone alive

    Sarru was probably about a year or two younger than I was when it happened. It's almost 22 years now but I can never ever forget what had happened.... I was pulled out from school with my younger sister with our then baby brother at home with our mom. It was all over the news and... the one scene that never fails to make me feel sicker than sick is of an individual free falling from one of the towers. Geez I almost puke at the memory of it.
    I never fully forgotten the fear. Neither have I fully forgotten what had happened a year later for the 2002 Winter Olympics. It felt like hope was rising again despite the battered flag from the towers displayed on full view.

    Any American alive then can tell you where we were on 9/11. That day stunned the entire country and ended an age of innocence.

Those moments showcase the best in us, even if others try to make that light extinguish.

      I’m a Scot. I know where I was on that day. Edinburgh, celebrating my birthday. We saw and smiled with so many happy Americans that day. That’s what stays with me. We returned home and put on the telly as we always did and just sat there, shocked. I remember younger daughter coming in but of anything else, it’s a blank. I saw a dark skinned lass leaning from a window and she so reminded me of my best friend, that I ached for that lass. And for the Americans we’d seen enjoying the sunshine through in Edinburgh. I could only imagine their anguish at flights cancelled and worry over loved ones whether in the towers or not. Bless them all.

    14:00 "Many people helped in many ways" - No truer words. Canada had a small town take in dozens of huge aircraft because the sky over the US was absolutely closed. The passengers on Flight 93 charged their captors rather than succumb to their fate, crashing their flight into a small field in Pennsylvania instead of a building full of people. Many of the dead were first responders: Firemen, Police, EMT's who were doing their best to save others. Even the .. i'm almost crying writing this... the scale of things created new stranger issues, like rescue dogs.. trained for years to find people in the wreckage of buildings... found so many bodies they got depressed and wouldn't move. Dogs. Firemen and police had to dress up as bodies and sit in the rubble so the dogs would find living people to keep the dogs moving but even then, the toll was deep on everyone.

This is instilled in my brain. And it won't ever go away.

    I still remember watching those planes hit the towers on live tv at age 14, I tried skipping school but after seeing it on tv I went to school to see what was happening because I thought it was a big event and everyone was in shock. They had the news on all day in every class early. I knew the usa would change after that and it did though not in all good ways. It's does have greatly increased defense, especially against terrorist attacks such as this. Everyone over 30 holds that day in their heart.

    I live in australia, I saw this happening on tv. It was late at night, we had extra family visiting, we'd been talking a long time. About to all go to bed, I saw this and told my family members what I saw. We all watched it then for some time. We saw the second plane fly into the second tower. My bro lives in the UK, he did not know if he could get a plane home after this, everything was being closed down. I had trouble believing the first tower collapsed onto itself and was replaced by a very high column of dust. It was horrifying. Emergency workers were still climbing up to get injured or lost people out, past the fires, some people were jumping out of windows very high up, to certain death, not wanting to be burned, when the multi-story sky scraper became quickly very short, so many people were never found. This made a huge impact on the world.
