Given the information they had at the time, it made sense. They thought it was a tragic accident. Each tower had 25,000 people inside at the time. Evacuation of 50,000 people into the streets when emergency services were trying to get in was a logistical nightmare. Their efforts were focused on what they thought was the most immediate danger. It’s unimaginably sad, but understandable.
Nobody thought the towers would fall. The previsions were for fires, not for big jet planes hitting the buildings, so people staying put and waiting for the firefighters kind of made sense, unfortunately it was not to be
According to another documentary where survivors tell their story, some people did go down to leave the South Tower after the North Tower got hit but were told to make their way back to their offices.
I am just so heartbroken when I think of this and how horrifying it must have been for that group of people on the roof. I cannot imagine 😔 it sounds like they would have had a calming man there though knowing that Frank was there and spoke to his wife like he did. I pray that they were able to find peace in their final moments amidst the chaos surrounding them 😔😔😔
Fire goes up but as last time some believed helicopters would save them.A man i knew did. just that. Went up to roof and was trapped.God bless this Family.
When you're a widow, at about the 7 to 10 year mark, you just get sick and tired of crying all the time. It doesn't mean you don't love, feel the loss or become distant. You just learn to live with and accept the truth of your "new normal."
I believe she has mourned him for several years. I feel she is strong enough emotionally to talk about him. I am still angry people trying to leave the 2nd building but was turned around. That was the biggest mistake the building Security made.
@@vivis9946 yea that upsets me too. Even if the second tower hadn’t been hit how did they know the first tower wouldn’t have taken it down or something when it fell ?
This really touches me as a father. I love my daughter and I know for a fact that if I could left a last message I would tell exactly what Frank said: "Don't let her forget how I love her".
She’s really a good woman and has raised her children well. She was sincere to his last wish. And the fact that she’s continued to do great for others in the world in his name after what happened to him is so beautiful. He looks like he was a wonderful man and both mother and daughter have truly honoured him. Great example for others.
Reporter was getting kinda emotional after kimmy told the story about franks last calls, you don’t really see that from news reporters and it just shows how much this still effects people even after 20 years.
I agree. The reporter handles this whole interview perfectly. He was kind, respectful, quietly spoken, he asked really interesting questions...I was impressed with his tact and kindness. To the Doyle family, your grace and courage in the face of horror are inspirational. Frank looked like a great man, clearly adored his wife and children, and his spirit lives on. What a loss to the world. My deepest condolences.
We all can recall where we were when we got the news of the Towers being hit. I was on a construction site and the catering truck guy told our crew when we were taking our break. We all went home immediately !
We love you Africa will never forget your husband Frank , We are grateful for the legacy your family is doing in your honor for Africa. From Liberia , with appreciation
Oh my God this is absolutely heart breaking. He looks like he loved his children so much. It's so unfair that they have missed so many years with him. His wife is so strong. I am so sorry for your loss Doyle family.
OMG this is horrible!! They told them to stay in the tower. If they wouldn't have said that a lot of these people would still be alive today. Heartbreaking!!
@@paulorocky They said the same thing to the people of Maui... There were some that ignored the cops & got out & survived. For now on... DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYONE BUT YOUR GUT & GOD...!!!!!
The interviewer did great. Frank’s wife is the epitome of strength and loyalty to her husband, building up a foundation in his name and building on to his legacy. Great job raising great children mama
When the reporter asked Kimmy if she's haunted by this call, I thought she's had 7,300 days to think about that call, probably multiple times a day - naturally it's etched into her soul. What a profoundly sad day that was.
This was honestly one of the most beautiful interviews I’ve ever seen. Kimmy and Zoe are incredible speakers. Frank has to be so incredibly proud. Kudos to the interviewer as well. Just well done all around.
I lost my father just after turning 3. He was a firefighter. I feel the same as Zoe. I remember the loss, the immediate aftermath, and missing him, but I am uncertain whether other things that feel like memories are truly memories or more based on stories people have told us about him, photos I have seen, etc.
@user-yp5el1mu2s My opinion (that I know you didn’t ask for) is you get to make your memories any way you can. His was a life cut short so if you have to borrow from others, I’m sure he’d be okay with it. As a parent, I would be. I also want to thank you for his service.
For whatever it is worth from a random stranger on the net, im also sorry for your loss and wish you good luck with everything you do in life, im sure he is watching over you somehow
They would have been hit by debri and even by people falling was one concern though. Also they may have expected bombs or other violence in the streets or other buildings …could have been more terrorists.
It's a sad reality that many in the South Tower who were below the impact devastation, saved their lives by ignoring the bland reassurances programed for much less devastating situations! Believe your selfsurvival intuition!!
Life unfair to lose someone like Frank. He looks like an amazing human being. Rest in power and bless your family. He is for sure so proud and looking down.
Another misconception. Who dies and looks down on us? If a dead person's soul has the power to look down on us, they would come back and live with us. Be true believers and look through the scriptures well.
I live in Manhattan, lost a relative in tower 1 and I saw it happen in real time while running home from my office- this interview shook me to my core. This will always be the worst day of our lives. Rip, sending blessings to this sweet family.
I cannot fathom this family’s pain and heartache. I couldn’t imagine getting a call like that and then never getting to speak to my husband or family member again. My heart hurts for them.
Wow I never knew that tower 2 was told to stay in place. Just imagine all the people that would have made it out had they made the decision to leave immediately.
@@user-xm3wd8tz6d I would have, but I think everyone thought (well, from watching the news at the time) that the first plane was an “accident”. Then I watched the second plane fly in. 😢

Same here. Last time I saw my dad he said he would make sure I never would get a penny from him after he died. Very sad. I have made peace with him now that he has passed away.

I think this interviewer did an amazing job of letting both Kimmy and Zoe speak. The questions were appropriate and kind, and he didn't interrupt them, he actually let them talk (which is not always the case with interviews).THANK YOU for this interview. RIP Frank Doyle, Kimmy and Zoe, I am thinking about you! Thank you, CBC/Radio-Canada for sharing this with us!
I cannot imagine the pain she went through and still goes through everyday, I cried just from hearing her talk about the last phone call between her and her husband 😢
In retrospect we can say that telling them to stay was a poor decision. But honestly at the time that they made the call they didn't know it was an attack. Assuming that it was just one plane accident in the other tower it would be far better to keep people safe in the untouched tower rather than streaming out onto the street below right in the path of a collapsing building.
The memories of Frank showed in this video were so elegant, and it shows how much of a role model he was to his young children at the time. It's hard to lose your father at such a young age. His courageous actions will live on. If he were alive today, he must be so proud of Zoey for getting her undergrad. As a fellow Canadian, I pray for this family. RIP Frank.
I think it is because they believed tower 2 was safe and they didn’t know it was a plane that hit tower 1, and evacuating tower 2 might’ve slowed down the evacuation of tower 1. I didn’t put much thought into that because they literally had seconds to decide what to do and they didn’t have time to put lots of thought into evacuation. I’m not saying that they were right in saying to not leave tower 2 but I’m saying at the time it seemed like the best option
Its only mind boggling now because of all of the actions that took place. But you have to remember at the time, There was no way for anyone to predict a bunch of planes were going to fly into buildings, at the time they thought it was just an accident in the first tower
No. It's not. That's at least the second time I see an interview about people from the second tower . This one died, the other one survived. In both cases they had their relative on the phone after the first tower was hit and in both cases their relatives told them to immediately get out of the building (while it had not been hit yet). In both cases the people inside were reluctant because they were told by the PA system not to leave the building. The common sense is obviously to leave the building. Then or now. It is the same. The PA messages were ridiculous and criminal. @@YoungMannie92
This story makes you count your blessings and never leave on a argument ! I’m glad he got to speak to her! Such a brave women to be able to tell this story! X
I'm in such a amazement and give comfort of pride to all of the families who lost someone that day and every parent that raised children up over the years are incredible to me. You've all done such wonderful jobs with your children. Amen
I worked at a middle school. I remember that moment when all of this happened. I walked up to my friend and just burst into tears. She grabbed ahold of me and hugged me. She was like the mom figure at work. A lot of parents picked up their kids and we were let go for the day. I became obsessed with the news just praying they would pull more people alive out of the rubble. Each and every person that lost someone was in my prayers and they still are to this day.
It's amazing how so many of the families dont sound angry that their loved ones were so selfishly and visciously taken from them. They talk about them and that day with such eloquence and wisdom. There was one man that talked about his wife whose body was found in front of the building a ways away from the towers. He knew she had clearly jumped from, I think, the 87th floor? Maybe higher. She had called and told him how hot it was and how hard to breathe it was. And he said "to be out of the heat and the smoke. It must've felt like flying." I thought that was such a wise and deeply profound way to think of it.
He would be so very proud of you all. He looked like he was a loving, great daddy. It's a blessing to have so many pictures and video of your time together. I'm so very sorry for your tragic loss.
This brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful way to remember their father and to help the world around them. Beautiful family. The videos of Frank show a man who loved his kids and family, you can see how proud of his kids he is. Thank you for sharing.
This was a really great interview. Very sensitive, and very revealing. Thank goodness for that family's love, and thank goodness for their social network.
It is impossible to express the sorrow I feel for this fine lady and her children . The enormity of the sorrow I feel for all those who perished and all the families suffering such devastating and cruel loss. RIP forevermore , never to be forgotten .
I'm watching this video from South Africa. I would like to thank Kimmy and Zoe for choosing our country in building schools in memory of their loving husband/father, Frank Doyle. Their story has shaken me to the core. I'm so glad that they have photos and videos to remember him with. May God bless you all Doyle family.❤
I was 10 when this happened and lost my father almost a year to the day before this tragedy. It was difficult to understand what had happened back then but every year it sinks in deeper and deeper. I still cry when I see the towers fall and every story from survivors or families of victims makes my heart cry out for them.
My ❤ goes out to this family. Her re-telling of Frank's last phonecalls to her gave me chills. Their daughter (Zoe) is so poised and articulate - it was touching to hear from her as well.
As soon as she said her girlfriend said "Frank's tower just got hit" and from there I started crying... This is always a tragedy and we all move forward day by day day not affected and not even phased. God bless this family and all others directly impacted...
What a man!!! So brave , such dignity . What an example for everyone. You were blessed to had him in your lives and to carry his genes . What an outstanding family. Love from venice italy
Kimmy you and your kids are amazing. So brave. You were so lucky to hear Frank's voice for the last time. My father died 10 years ago in a shipwreck here in Italy and I wasn't that lucky. It happened on December 15. I hadn't heard from him for a week before the tragedy happened. I lived in Milan then and my family lived here in Pompeii. But we were blessed from his body's recovery the day after. He was 77 years old and I can't stop believing that whether it happened on summer, he would have saved himself. He was an amazing swimmer. I know what you feel, how you feel. I'm 50 now and I miss him every single day.
They had such a beautiful family, and she never realized her husband wasn't coming home that day my sincerest condolences to her family and/or any other family/person who lost someone in this heart-breaking tragedy
As a father this story just tore me apart. 😭😭😭😭 He's watching over you everyday. Rest in Peace Frank, and every person that lost their life that horrible day.
Still thinking & honoring of you "Cookie" former coworker flight attendant who was a former Philadelphia police officer prior to working at United Airlines...her flight hit 2nd tower. UA 93 love & miss you guys too, proud to have worked with great people.
I am So Sorry!!! Thank you Both for sharing these very difficult Memories! And Thank you for the ways you are keeping Frank’s Memory alive and doing for others! Rest In Peace Frank!

I know I thought that for so many years, why did they not evacuate when the other tower was hit.. so many people would have lived..
I feel same way, I wish they would of put some urgency in leaving the second towers
According to another documentary where survivors tell their story, some people did go down to leave the South Tower after the North Tower got hit but were told to make their way back to their offices.
It’s heartbreaking seeing the photos of him. 20 years on his daughters have grown up and his wife has aged, but he’s frozen in time.
Yes. I thought the same thing. He will be forever young.
Bless this Woman's strength, love and courage. She's a beautiful soul as us her daughter ❣️

It’s horrible

That he wasn't concerned about himself at all, he just wanted to comfort his wife and kids was so beautiful. RIP Frank Doyle
A True Man and a Dedicated Father
For Frank to remain cool and collected under such incredible stress tells me he was a strong man. May he rest in peace along with the other victims.🙏
He knew it was likely the end.
Yes to them y'all 😊😊
I guess they wanted to sound calm and collected because they didn't want their loved ones to worry, and they had limited time to get it out. Poor man.

I think it is because they believed tower 2 was safe and they didn’t know it was a plane that hit tower 1, and evacuating tower 2 might’ve slowed down the evacuation of tower 1. I didn’t put much thought into that because they literally had seconds to decide what to do and they didn’t have time to put lots of thought into evacuation. I’m not saying that they were right in saying to not leave tower 2 but I’m saying at the time it seemed like the best option
Its only mind boggling now because of all of the actions that took place. But you have to remember at the time, There was no way for anyone to predict a bunch of planes were going to fly into buildings, at the time they thought it was just an accident in the first tower
No. It's not. That's at least the second time I see an interview about people from the second tower . This one died, the other one survived.
In both cases they had their relative on the phone after the first tower was hit and in both cases their relatives told them to immediately get out of the building (while it had not been hit yet). In both cases the people inside were reluctant because they were told by the PA system not to leave the building.
The common sense is obviously to leave the building. Then or now. It is the same. The PA messages were ridiculous and criminal.

This story makes you count your blessings and never leave on a argument ! I’m glad he got to speak to her! Such a brave women to be able to tell this story! X
Frank Doyle sounds like a great guy and God Bless the family
I just got so emotional hearing this story 20 yrs later!
The resilience shown by these two is simply amazing. They have responded in the best possible way to such an unfathomably tragic event.
Words can’t describe the heartbreak. RIP to all the victims 🕊️.
God Bless you, daughter, and son Endlessly for all you have done and is still doing with and for your family and keeping Frank's legacy alive.
The reporter sounded like he was crying
I would be
I'm in such a amazement and give comfort of pride to all of the families who lost someone that day and every parent that raised children up over the years are incredible to me. You've all done such wonderful jobs with your children. Amen

I worked at a middle school. I remember that moment when all of this happened. I walked up to my friend and just burst into tears. She grabbed ahold of me and hugged me. She was like the mom figure at work. A lot of parents picked up their kids and we were let go for the day. I became obsessed with the news just praying they would pull more people alive out of the rubble. Each and every person that lost someone was in my prayers and they still are to this day.
My heart hurts so much for them and for all those who lost their loved ones.
It had to be hard but what a brave family here. God bless and keep you ♥️
Awesome way to memorialize a family member, helping others in their name.
It's amazing how so many of the families dont sound angry that their loved ones were so selfishly and visciously taken from them. They talk about them and that day with such eloquence and wisdom. There was one man that talked about his wife whose body was found in front of the building a ways away from the towers. He knew she had clearly jumped from, I think, the 87th floor? Maybe higher. She had called and told him how hot it was and how hard to breathe it was. And he said "to be out of the heat and the smoke. It must've felt like flying." I thought that was such a wise and deeply profound way to think of it.
He would be so very proud of you all. He looked like he was a loving, great daddy. It's a blessing to have so many pictures and video of your time together. I'm so very sorry for your tragic loss.
This brought tears to my eyes. What a wonderful way to remember their father and to help the world around them. Beautiful family. The videos of Frank show a man who loved his kids and family, you can see how proud of his kids he is. Thank you for sharing.
This was a really great interview. Very sensitive, and very revealing. Thank goodness for that family's love, and thank goodness for their social network.
The slight of sadness in Kimmy's eyes tho 😣
So sad they didn’t evacuate those people after the first tower was hit.
Who knew there was a second plane?
It is impossible to express the sorrow I feel for this fine lady and her children . The enormity of the sorrow I feel for all those who perished and all the families suffering such devastating and cruel loss. RIP forevermore , never to be forgotten .
I'm watching this video from South Africa. I would like to thank Kimmy and Zoe for choosing our country in building schools in memory of their loving husband/father, Frank Doyle. Their story has shaken me to the core. I'm so glad that they have photos and videos to remember him with. May God bless you all Doyle family.❤
Many, many hearts break for you and your children, and also rejoice with you for how you have successfully honored your husband and his memory.
What an amazing wife and mom❣️
What an amazing tribute to your husband and dad. I'm from South Africa, would love to know where you built the schools
Excellent interviewer. He really showed a lot of empathy and compassion. The daughter is for sure making her dad proud.
Those poor children...May their father's memory always be a blessing...
The Mom is so strong. I like her statements. So sad he was taken from his family, you can tell he really loved his children..😔
I am so sorry for you all , God Bless your beautiful husband Frank , he would be so very Proud of you all today . Beautiful Family .
Amen
This is so devastating, hearing this story. I am so sorry. I am heartbroken ❤️🇺🇸. We will never forget.
I couldn't imagine having to call my loved ones and calmly say goodbye without freaking out. The courage and calmness it took.
Heart wrenching. I lived in NJ at the time. I'll never forget.
My heart and soul goes out to all lost and their families.
I was 10 when this happened and lost my father almost a year to the day before this tragedy. It was difficult to understand what had happened back then but every year it sinks in deeper and deeper. I still cry when I see the towers fall and every story from survivors or families of victims makes my heart cry out for them.
His legacy is forever. We remember Frank Doyle, from Illinois.
My ❤ goes out to this family. Her re-telling of Frank's last phonecalls to her gave me chills. Their daughter (Zoe) is so poised and articulate - it was touching to hear from her as well.
still makes me cry everytime.......sigh
As soon as she said her girlfriend said "Frank's tower just got hit" and from there I started crying... This is always a tragedy and we all move forward day by day day not affected and not even phased. God bless this family and all others directly impacted...
You know Kimme, Frank knew how to select his very strong & worthy partner/wife. God bless you & your family.
What a man!!! So brave , such dignity . What an example for everyone. You were blessed to had him in your lives and to carry his genes . What an outstanding family. Love from venice italy
Kimmy you and your kids are amazing. So brave. You were so lucky to hear Frank's voice for the last time. My father died 10 years ago in a shipwreck here in Italy and I wasn't that lucky. It happened on December 15. I hadn't heard from him for a week before the tragedy happened. I lived in Milan then and my family lived here in Pompeii. But we were blessed from his body's recovery the day after. He was 77 years old and I can't stop believing that whether it happened on summer, he would have saved himself. He was an amazing swimmer. I know what you feel, how you feel. I'm 50 now and I miss him every single day.
I’m sorry 🤍
My prayers are with you and your family.
@@KLC_xoxo ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@kathymcmahon6582 thank you so much Kathy.
Sending love to your family from England, so sorry for your loss.
They had such a beautiful family, and she never realized her husband wasn't coming home that day
my sincerest condolences to her family and/or any other family/person who lost someone in this heart-breaking tragedy
Zoe is the image of her dad.He lives on in her ❤❤ & is, & always was so proud of his children 😢
As a dad myself, this is beyond heartbreak.
As a father this story just tore me apart. 😭😭😭😭 He's watching over you everyday. Rest in Peace Frank, and every person that lost their life that horrible day.
Its almost 22 years ago, these stories still bring tears to my eyes.
Pure heartbreak that never ever leaves. RIP, dear man.
The chubby baby is so cute 💜 It was a Wednesday morning in New Zealand and I saw the towers on TV thinking it was just a fire - I was only six - RIP ❤
Heartbreaking and a reminder about how horrible that day was for so many. This is an incredible Mom story too. And great job Zoe.
WHAT A STRONG WOMAN. I am weeping.
Still thinking & honoring of you "Cookie" former coworker flight attendant who was a former Philadelphia police officer prior to working at United Airlines...her flight hit 2nd tower. UA 93 love & miss you guys too, proud to have worked with great people.
Lovely of you to share your thoughts. 🇨🇦

Unreal. God bless this family
I am not even from there,but I can't stop crying.Imagine how much people thinking there that they are coming for them ,my God😢
Both women spoke so well. So painful. I was also touched by the gentleness and respect of the interviewer, it seemed unusual, in a good way
