it's so crazy basically being able to see a good portion of your life, I don't know you well but I hope you've had a good life and continue to, you did vlogging before it was cool
It's real cool that you were recording the night before! About that same time, I was nearly chopping my finger off prepping breakfast for the next morning at this b&b I was working at. I'm sure not many people remember what they were doing on 09/10
September 11, 2001 I was 24 years old getting the day started about to cook my 2-year daughter breakfast at the time turn on the news like I usually do and saw the plane crash into the twin towers I was floored never seen anything like that happen in America, this country hasn't been the same since 😪
You and your daughter were the same age then as my brother and his son. His son (my nephew) was born exactly two years before 9/11, so it was his 2nd birthday.
I was 11 when this happened it was pretty scary but I mainly remember just my whole family in the living room when my mom picked me up from school I got home and saw them all crying it was an event that many of us will never forget
I was in first grade when the principal came in and told us about it!! This is the very first major news story the I'd ever heard since I was so little at the time.
Same here i was 6 & in first grade, the teachers huddled and turned off the lights and gathered in the classroom and they just made us draw "free time" I felt a negative vibe....
It was my mom's first day of college on 9/11 and as she was going to classes all the TV's in the school were playing the news showing the north tower hit and my dad was also in class but different place they both lived in New Jersey and my dad saw the smoke from the twin towers all the way from Passaic
My grandma formerly worked in NYC in a building not far from the WTC, she told me a few days before 9/11 their firm was relocating and leaving their building that was near the WTC
Great video footage, Gilbert! I was 19, going on 20 when this happened and was living in NJ , about 15 minutes from where the attacks happened. I remember this very vividly and how it affected us all.
Wow Gilbert that's awesome kinda like going back in time, you actually recorded the witness on the pentagon who everyone said was an actor thats actually a hard clip to find. 💯
I love ur channel, watching all the vintage home videos espessially from the late 90s and early 2000s because it gives me a weird kind of nostalgia. and I was wondering if you had a video for 9/11 and I was like of course you do! I was only a toddler and not old enough to remember it, but it’s interesting to hear everyone’s stories and see their reactions from that day.
My parents were living in New York at the time. They remembered that the smell of dead people, dust, glass, concrete, and jet fuel, would be in your nose for months. They will never forget that fateful day,
9/10? Or 9/11? On the night of the 11th we ALL went to bed knowing the world would not be the same... If you went to bed in the 10th with the random thought that the world will never be the same, buy us all a lottery ticket and have scientists study your brain.
I was 10 when the attacks occurred. It genuinely looked like a movie trailer and then we were horrified to learn that that was really happening. We spent the morning watching the news in my 5th grade class and then watched the news again in the afternoon. I remembered just about every network talked about the September 11 attacks for about a month non-stop! Then the news stations would talk about it throughout the segment for several years until they stopped. Very sad times indeed.
2000 Nov : Damilola Taylor, a 10 year old Nigerian boy is stabbed to death for his jacket in Peckham by The Predie brothers, part of South London gang... Aug 2001, Aaliyah dies in plane crash, Sept 11 2001: 9/11.... unreal ...
its just shocking how this is not a forgotten moment in all of 2000s history , my mother was driving and saw the smoke in either the North Tower or South Tower 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Daniel King lived there for 8 years. I really liked it there for the most part mostly because it rent was CHEAP!! And the park was peaceful. But at the cost of having live with those certain rules of the mobule home park we have to abide by.
I woke up and went into my moms room and saw the first tower on fire. My mom let me stay home from school because of all the crazy shit that happened that day.
Mum and I flew to Malta in June of that year as my Grandma was dying of cancer and Mum wanted to say her goodbyes. Can’t believe that this tragedy happened just a few months later.
Good luck finding apartment these with apartments with prices that low ; back then it was much cheaper to rent out place compare to today world. Wonder how much homes/apartments are gonna be in future ?
Sept 10th, 2001 I was on a cruiseship in Puerto Rico celebrating my 21st birthday. The next day, I wss in St John's Virgin Islands when it happened!! A very tragic day!
just crazy, especially the night for you before 9/11 which would’ve been already been one hour before September 11th and hours before the first place hit one of the WTC for the east coast where the attacks would take place
My Mom was 8 months pregnant with me at the time and the next month by the end of October I was finally born, thank god I didn’t have to watched the events on TV and the news
It was mostly calls only. Maybe a few simple games and even downloadable dot metrix screensavers and games. It was expensive to text messages back then as it was a "luxury" feature. Cell phones started to boom in popularity about this time. But they were not yet taking over life
I was 18 living in Hemet at the time. I had to work at longs drugs store later that day. It was one of the most saddest days in American during my lifetime. I remember people were buying little American 🇺🇸 flags. I guess they figured they couldn’t really help, but they could show their support. It was also my brothers 21st birthday. A birthday he will never forget.
Gilbert, I will make this film by using your clips, also I will put "The following motion picture film was inspired by actual true historical figures and events" back in life of Gilbert!
I was 13 at the time living in New York was so surreal I was in school tmnt mom pick me up soon as the first building got hit I didn't know what was going on till we got home. The sky was dark and Smokey and this day was so sad I hate this happened to us in New York. I kept saying everything is going to change after this.
Denis Belfort a' lot of kids at that age had no idea what was going on during that day. I was five years old and sure as hell didn't know what was happening, I was probably playing with my toys and watching cartoons.
Denis Belfort i was 8 and I live in NY. I remember watching the news and seeing black dots falling from the towers. The black dots being people falling from the towers. I couldnt fathom what was going on at first. I thought it was fake. Then I see my mom crying hysterically. Scary fucking day. I still remember the heavy smoke and the smell of it . I
I was 3 and I didn't know about 911 until I was in the 5th grade a good 7 years after it happened. My family and I lived in Brownsville, TX when 9/11 went down. My mom, whose birthday is the 12th of September, recalls a student rushing into the high school class she was teaching to tell her what was on TV.
I remember that day my brother saying he could download illegal things off the internet because the FBI had better things to do. This from the same person who sells guns he buys with his FOID card and has never been caught despite me trying to turn him in.
i rember that day it was sad but dinit affect me i liveed my life like normal the only think that scared me i though we would go to world war 3 and the draft would be back because i would not want to go to war
it's so crazy basically being able to see a good portion of your life, I don't know you well but I hope you've had a good life and continue to, you did vlogging before it was cool
and he’s just getting started. it’s all paying off racking up millions of views.
Its so ironic that now, with COVID, and 9-11 attacks, it too has left its mark on our lives.
it is more common now but he was one of the first i am way younger than him but i got no footage from 2001 apart from some pictures
Wow, this is incredible footage.. can’t imagine what was going through people’s minds i was far too young to even remember.
I remember everything about it

My Mom Saw The Sept 11 2001 Attacks When She Was Getting Ready To Go to Work
My dad works where it happened. Work was canceled because of it. Did she make it back safe?
It was my mom's first day of college on 9/11 and as she was going to classes all the TV's in the school were playing the news showing the north tower hit and my dad was also in class but different place they both lived in New Jersey and my dad saw the smoke from the twin towers all the way from Passaic

It’s scary knowing what’s going to happen before he does. I can’t imagine the shock of that happening that morning.
I saw this on tv before leaving for school. I was 10. Aaliyah died the month before.
I remember hearing about that singer!
She died in a plane crash too.

So sad!! 😭

How long did you live in the mobile home? Did you like it?
Daniel King lived there for 8 years. I really liked it there for the most part mostly because it rent was CHEAP!! And the park was peaceful. But at the cost of having live with those certain rules of the mobule home park we have to abide by.

Royal Smiley that’s a very nice thing for you to say. Thank you.
Hope you are safe!
Sorry for you're loss
hmm 12 grand that's not too bad that's like renting an apartment you can keep for a year
I was 7 years old and all I remember from that day is watching the news at night crying seeing someone fall out of the building.
in 9/11/21, this will mark the 20th anniversary of these attacks on our nation.
@Samantha Reilly yep it did
Yeah
Good luck finding apartment these with apartments with prices that low ; back then it was much cheaper to rent out place compare to today world. Wonder how much homes/apartments are gonna be in future ?

My Puerto Rican grandma 🇵🇷was still living down there she hasn’t been there since 2002 😭
As of now, October 22 2020, it's like we're experiencing 9/11 every two and a half days in terms of US lives lost. What a sad time we're in.
It's legendary.
Great Video Gilbert!
2001 was the end of the true 90s
Bad_vibes_gaming indeed

For the USA, but globally the 90s ended between 2008-2011.

definitely even for the WHOOOOOOLE 20th Century
i remember that day i just turned 6 my birthday is on Sep 9.. it was on a Tuesday and i remember watching the news after school
Lost my uncle in the attacks. Never even met the guy.
My sister was born September 11, 2000; I know this doesn't matter, but I just decided to throw this in.
AquaNinja0512 lol when he was recording your sister was somewhere being borned
Teodoro Guzman no his sister was 1 ... he said 2000 not 2001 lol
She turned 1 year old when 9/11 happened
It’s cazy to think about even after all of this Covid stuff we’ve been through it all~
I was in the 7 grade when this happened
just crazy, especially the night for you before 9/11 which would’ve been already been one hour before September 11th and hours before the first place hit one of the WTC for the east coast where the attacks would take place
My Mom was 8 months pregnant with me at the time and the next month by the end of October I was finally born, thank god I didn’t have to watched the events on TV and the news
Thank you for filming on that day.
My birthday is 10 September... So I think it is interesting to see this. On 9/11, I was home.
WeHseps my parents wedding was on September 10th 2000....kinda a funny foreshadowing about how their marriage would end up
My birthday is on September 16th. I would have been just turning 4.
I was 2 years old at the time, but my mother saw it on the news on the way to work
Hi Gilbert we’re mobile phones common or ubiquitous as today how did people talk over the phone before 9/11
It was mostly calls only. Maybe a few simple games and even downloadable dot metrix screensavers and games. It was expensive to text messages back then as it was a "luxury" feature. Cell phones started to boom in popularity about this time. But they were not yet taking over life
So were telephones more common and ubiquitous in 2001 than mobile phones
a lot of people got their first one in 2000 so when this happened most people had one but it was really new
Hey Gilbert do you have any videos of your reaction to the OJ Simpson verdict when it came in?
I was 10 years old and remember where I was at.
I was 18 living in Hemet at the time. I had to work at longs drugs store later that day. It was one of the most saddest days in American during my lifetime. I remember people were buying little American 🇺🇸 flags. I guess they figured they couldn’t really help, but they could show their support. It was also my brothers 21st birthday. A birthday he will never forget.
I was born 2 years later. My grandpa died 5 days later after the 9/11 after falling in coma
How amazing how you actually made taps on the day and days before the incident
I wasnt born yet but I can imagine how scary it must have been to see that especially since I live in ny
Oh wow. The PennySaver. My mom would place ads there and I looked for apartments.
How did he get the Korean network all the way to LA?!
20 YEARS AGO!!! Oh DAMN! 9/11
Gilbert, I will make this film by using your clips, also I will put "The following motion picture film was inspired by actual true historical figures and events" back in life of Gilbert!

I was in a building less than 5mins from the Pentagon when it was hit. I heard a boom and saw black smoke coming from the Pentagon.
