Who’s here 9/11 2024 remembering this day? I watch this each year and pray for all those who lost their lives.
Me, rip to the victims 😔💔
Me too.I was 7 years old that morning but I still remember that day well.I was on my way to school in Victorville,CA not long after the towers collapsed. We should never forget what happened that day.
I do. I was 7 then and didn't have much memory, but I definitely pay respects to the families affected.
I am. I was too young to remember what happened, so I watch and read stories every year so I can learn and never forget. 🤍
I do. I was 30 when it happened. I also watch the Nadeau Brothers documentary every year.
I was in my kindergarten classroom. Our teacher was bawling and we didn’t know why. Years later I found out her brother had run in to rescue those he could but never came back out. May this day be viewed with respect forever.
Many were young, or not even born, but with the passing of years comes understanding and clarity. I myself was born a few months later, I'm not even from New York, but the sadness is overwhelming
Unfortunately many young people (including in this comment section) think because they weren’t born, it doesn’t matter. That this day should just be forgotten because it’s such a pain to have to hear about it each year. Completely ignorant to the facts that family and friends are still impacted, will forever be impacted. And those 3,000 people and the rescue dogs and the brave citizens who died should be forever honored.
@ellaelliott4415 As someone who was alive that day, as someone who was harmed by this country's actions in the aftermath you can shove off with that self-defeating attitude. What we did in our pain and anger in the aftermath was just as unforgivable as what was done to us, if not more so. The blood of hundreds of thousands can be directly laid at our country's feet in our need to avenge ourselves. They have not 'forgotten'. They are chosing to not let it control them
I was 10 years old that day and I remember it very clearly. I was watching TV before school. My parents knew nothing of it until I told them. I remember the confusion of what happened and later hearing it was an attack. I also remember that day at school that all we did was watch the TV.
@@ellaelliott4415 As well as the people still dying from the effects of that day. Cancer, respiratory complications, suicide.....
My dad died in the 74th floor with all his co workers, I was only 7 years old and he'll rest in peace😔
RIP to him bro may god bless your dad my great grandpa Moe lester died too
😢 I'm so sorry
I’m so sorry 😞
Im so sorry 😔 God bless.
My so sorry for your lost I pray for your lost 😢😢😢😢
RIP MY GRANDPA JEFFREY 1946-2001, HE PASSED AWAY ON THE 104th FLOOR, CANTOR FITZGERALD IN THE NORTH TOWER, HIS DESCENDANTS WILL NEVER FORGET THIS TRAGEDY😭😭✝️🙏🏻YOU ARE VERY KIND PERSON, I MISS YOU😭
😭😭😭😭
God bless your Grandpa and your family. I’m so very sorry for your loss. 🙏
🤧😰😭😭😭😢😢
God bless ur grandpa and ur family. I'm very sorry for ur lost🙏
omg I heard many many people from that company died that day. I was a senior in high school. I became a social studies teacher because of this day. RIP to your grandpa, and everyone else that passed that day. We Remember You!
The fact that those loud thumps you hear is actually people landing to their death god , it's Heartbreaking
Yeah it really is. The people who were trapped realized the only escape from the fumes and flames was jumping. They were desperate to escape.
That part is the most heartbreaking part of the whole story
That made me lose it.
yes. I saw those people jump from the towers from right across the river at Exchange Place in Jersey City. they looked like little sticks falling from the towers. They were people. I will NEVER FORGET
@@elisaboots1125I’m so incredibly sorry. That must have been so traumatic for you 💔
The fact that the man's sister was literally in the tower at the same time he was is chilling, but somehow strangely somewhat beautiful that they were together. I'd like to think her spirit gave him the strength to save that burnt woman.
23 years and it still feels like it just happened. God bless all the innocent victims whose lives were stolen from them that day. We will never forget you.
It’s crazy how that moment just stoped time. I remember where I was and minor details like it was yesterday.
NEVER FORGIVE! NEVER FORGET THE TYRANNICAL GOVERNMENTS ROLE IN THE DEATHS OF THESE INNOCENT PEOPLE!
23 years later and it's still bizarre how that day that would have been a normal day ended up being a scary day. Unfortunately, this could all happen again, it's all unpredictable.
i swear i cried when i heard what this day is about i pray that those lifes that died is having their eternity in Heaven with God
Well said, I was just think 23 years seems like it just happened. I now think alot about all the children that lost parents, how old they are now, how are they doing.
Ron Clifford's story is what really got me. He survived the tragedy and helped save a woman's life, only to learn later that his sister and niece were in the plane that hit the south tower.
But amidst the tragedy, there were still heart warming moments of complete strangers meeting that day, helping each other, and becoming families for life.
He died suddenly last December
I remember seeing him telling what happened on another show that came out years ago. It was exclusively about the Marriott at the World Trade Center. He seemed like such a nice guy.
That's tragic.. RIP Ron
@@martik778suddenly… he would of been in his 70s or 80s….
@@Bgtesvyur5he was 69, and from what I gather it was heart related, so I’d say ‘sudden’ qualifies.
As a Canadian who remembers this day clear as crystal, I watch this every year to remember those who lost their lives, and those who gave their lives. We won’t forget. We will never forget.
Canadians and Brits really stood up for the US that day.
Forget what?
Its hard to forget when your own government attacks your own city, if tiktok was around then they would have been exposed like how they exposed the genoside of Palest1ne
RIP Victor Daniel Barbosa, my best friend, you were 23 years old on that fateful day, I write this 23 years later (2024)
I’m sorry for your loss. If you don’t mind me asking, was he in one of the towers?
I’m so very sorry for your loss…
who he 43 now
We love you. I’m sorry for your loss.

I pray for all who suffer from CPTSD, also known as Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, because anything can set it off, especially at night. Too many people suffer in silence and don't get help with it, and it's not a good idea to keep it inside. There's no shame in getting help. Music also helps, but it's got to be the kind of music that brings hope and serenity through it all. For the past 45 years or so, I've found Pat Metheny's music to be the most helpful.
The manager who had the stairwells painted- what an amazing human being. Truly cared for his employees and that is rare.
It’s not as rare as you’d think
I watch this every year and cry everytime. I was 8 years old when this happened, my Mom pulled me and my siblings from school and she put it on the television. I'm so sorry for all those who lost loved ones and may those who lost there lives rest in peace, I will never ever forget this day!🌹🙏🏻❤️

@@matthewlindsay5323 needless comment. Have some respect.
People are still dying from this event. The people who worked for days, weeks and months. They are dying from cancers and lung diseases.
The fact that the north tower was hit and they told the people in the south tower to go back into the office still baffles me
Fr, WHY?!
My grandma was in the second tower and she did not listen so she survived
@@ItalianCountryball11 People's mentality were different at the time, they thought it was a one-off accident. Nobody thought it was a terrorist attack.
Many fdny said never in a million years did they think those buildings would come down though.
Capitalism. We are just numbers to these companies
I was 1 month away from giving birth to my daughter and working in Baltimore MD. All I kept thinking was what kind of world am I bringing my baby into. Today, I realize our hope lay in Christ and all of our young people to make a better world.
I always think about how scary this was for my mom and the butterfly effect. I was 2 and I live in nj, my mom had an interview in the south tower at 930 but rescheduled bc I was sick. I watch a documentary every year and we all share our stories of people we know that we lost that day.
The world wont be better because the world has never been better, theres always bad things happening
Every year on Sept 11, I listen to a documentary of the terrible events of that horrible day to remind me of what this country went through. That day is forever seared in our memory. This one is so well done especially for all the young people who want to know the bravery and what it was like to face the unbelieveable challenges and to help each other. RIP to all the brave souls who lost their lives and gave their lives to help others. We will NEVER FORGET!

Edna Cintron, Betty Ong, Orio Palmer are just a few names of strangers that died that day that I will never forget. As a 6th grader in history class who had no idea the level of catastrophe that I was watching on TV. These folks were living through a nightmare. Decades later and till my time is up. I will pay my respects to all those innocent people lost that day.
You like I were in history class as history was made right b4 our eyes, except it was my 12th birthday. 23 years later and this day still hits the same.

18 now I'm 41! I just graduated!
Same here, I was in HS.
@@CWall-tv7gm LOL i was 16 also going to history class with my teach crying with the portable tv on.
The other day my professor brought up 9/11 in class, I realized that since I was born after it happened I didn’t know much about it and I felt like as an American it’s my responsibility to see and to feel this
Whoa the post 9-11 babies are in college already.
@@youtubeletmeintoyoutube4580i’m a post 9/11 baby who has graduated college and has a career! it’s crazy how i will never be able to fully understand what the American people went through that day
@@thejaxattack it’s crazy how much time has passed. I was living in New York when it happened and still do. I was in ninth grade. I’ll never forget it.
I was in 5th grade when it happened. My oldest just turned 13 and she's heard me and our family talk about it. Her dad is a firefighter, so she was curious about it
I was in kindergarten when it happened I didn't fully understand the situation until I was in about 2nd grade. So ever since then I watch documentaries like this to feel what they felt in that moment as it happened.
“You don’t lie to the dying”
Profound words.
I’ve read his story so many times. I remember watching this documentary a few years ago I think. It was the first time I heard Ernests story from himself and not just read it on paper.
Who is responsible for this attack?
The people who were brave enough to record and tell their stories, are one of the few blessings we have from this atrocity. They made sure people's stories lived on beyond them.
I saw this documentary when it first came out three years ago. It does an absolutely masterful job, showing how things went from an average, ordinary, and inconsequential day to becoming one of the darkest days in human history. What gets me the most is the footage of Chief Pfeiffer and the firefighters before the attack, in which the stories, memorials, books, change in life, pictures, and lives that were taken DID NOT exist…. Until the first plane hit the North Tower. Crazy how history works, doesn’t it?!
Wild watching that footage knowing their entire world and the world as we knew it was going to change forever in just a few seconds.
I go down this rabbit hole every year. I always will. With deep love and respect. Prayers for all
Same here. It seems like I learn something new every year. 🙏❤️🤍💙
Same here, I’ve watched this doc every year since it came out.
Same here, I am not sure that it helps my mental health, but I get a bit obsessed. I've learnt a lot more this year, so much more sadness and devastation.
I do too. I wasn’t alive when it happened, but I feel like it’s the least I can do, and it’s a way for me to pay my respects to the ones that lost their lives that day, and to those who risked everything to help others.
My heart just sank watching this. I’m only 13 years old and I have not been alive during 9/11 but whenever I look back at this every year, tears run down my eyes. I cannot begin to express how devastating this is to watch and how this is what people felt during that. God bless those lives and loved ones who lost their lives and god bless the people who lost their loved ones. We all didn’t deserve this. 😢😥
You have a great heart....it was a devastating day that changed history. We appreciate your heart and thoughts because I was 34 and now I'm 56. In one day the world changed
I was in 7th grade when this happened and don't have a personal connection to anyone affected, but I still go down this rabbit hole every year. I remember my parents picking me up in a panic and then we had the TV on the whole rest of the day and I was unable to look away. I was old enough to understand just how serious it was but I still didn't fully understand how changed the world would be after this and how changed I would be. Watching this now, in my mid 30s, it's still as visceral as it was that day, this is a really difficult watch, but so important and so well done.
Same same same from the age to the pick up to being glued to the tv and I could also look out my apartment window and see the massive smoke cloud w.o the buildings, that was very jarring. I couldn’t believe they were gone. I would always stare at the towers before that day dreaming of being an adult and working out there.
I joined the Army one month later Oct 10, 2001. Still in to this day. Prayers to the families n people of the city of NY. 🙏🏼 Never forgotten 🇺🇸🗽
Same here. Was in 7th grade at the time. I had just walked into history class and noticed our teacher had the TV on. We all saw that the first tower had been hit, and thought maybe it was an accident, until the second tower was hit. We watched the news for a little bit in other classes, until the principal told all of the teachers to turn off the TVs, as it was upsetting a lot of students. Hard to believe this was 23 years ago already. I feel like it happened maybe a few years ago. I always rewatch 9/11 documentaries on this day every year.
No One knew how changed the world would be after that day... I was just about to turn 20, and am about to turn 43, so I've lived close to equal time on both ends of this, and there is a Very distinct shift. I miss so much about the pre 9/11 times... Mostly the freedom, optimism, and humor of our society, that are virtually gone now.
I imagine it's a very painful time travel, and it's crazy to think that this was almost 30 years ago, but it still gives me chills
I have a massive respect for NY citizens, even in evil and chaos there's still love and compassion to help others, that is the best of humankind...
Yes & while the physical wounds may have healed & the area has been rebuilt, the emotional wounds are fresh. 23 years later, this city is flourishing. They are strong people. God Bless & Keep all of them.
😢 The Fact that ppl were told to go back inside after the first plane hit 😢 was a grave mistake
RIP Danny Suhr. The first firefighter killed when a jumper landed on him.
Wow I never knew that 😦
@@Wildcherry116 sadly,I saw pictures of his crew carrying his body.
Firefighter Danny Shur Orio Palmer and Mychal Judge were the three first firefighters killed on 911 when the two planes and the South Tower crashed and collapsed after the first plane hit the first Tower
RIP to Danny. He lived a few doors down from my grandparents back in the day. Such a sad story.
Yes, the foot of the jumper went straight to the face of Danny Suhr, Firefighter who was there described the scene as the most gory and gruesome thing someone could see in his life.
23 years later and this still brings tears to my eyes. We shall never forget. May GOD continue to be with the families of those directly affected and with the USA
People are still dying from this event. The people who worked for days, weeks and months. They are dying from cancers and lung diseases.
yea tears to my eyes and lump in my throat too
So, this just posted (i guess). my school showed it to us. this is exactly what we need to continue remembering the courageous souls that risked their lives & lost them in the 9/11 attacks. I pray for those who lost family in 9/11.
Who is responsible for this attack?
It's 2024...and these footages are still heartbreaking. I can only pray for the innocent people, who lost their lives in this ruthless attack. RIP

Thank you for posting this commercial free. Everyone needs to see this without the comercial breaks. I watch this every year.
I’ll never forget my dad who I never got to meet he was in the twin towers when it collapsed trying to save people 😢 I miss him so much
My prayers to you and your family 😢❤
I watch this every year to remember who we are as a Nation and to honor the friends lost. We came together as one during these events and people are more divided than ever. United we Stand, Divided we WILL FALL!
I mean.. really.. people came together on 9/11 and by 9/12, more and more people were already becoming Islamaphobic.. The division started right away, albeit at a slow pace, but it did start that quickly.
23 years later I grieve with those who lost loved ones on that tragic day ✝️🙏
9/11 happened before I was born, but growing up in the post 9/11 America and learning about it every year in school, all the heroes that gave their lives to help others and all the ones that didn't make it out, it made me feel like i had to give something. now at the end of my senior year i'm going into the fire academy. i hope if i need to i can be as brave as these men and women were that day. god rest their souls.
Thank you. Please be safe. ❤
Amazing you are giving such a contribution. I was 34 in 2001 and now i am 56. I will never ever foeget.
Honestly, you're lucky in a way to have been born post-9/11. I was 10 when it happened, and I remember the world how it was before the attacks, and the rest of my childhood was spent with people being largely distrustful of each other and seeing the war on T.V. When it happened, the whole world had a wakeup call. When you account for the relatively lax security measures at the time, 9/11 was a very unsophisticated attack. It's just nobody thought someone would every deliberately ram planes into buildings. And that's part of why the war was so difficult and (still to this day) these types of suicide attacks are ongoing. How do you fight an enemy that isn't afraid to die?
This is absolutely the most gut wrenching accounts I’ve ever watched
I was in the 7th grade when this happened. Schools went on lockdown and we watched it on the tv. Being an adult now and remembering all the stuff that went on continues to break my heart. WE will never forget. May the souls that were lost on this day rest peacefully.
I’m an 01 baby. I was alive during 9/11 but obviously do not remember it happening. I remember how much it was talked about at school though. it was such a huge part of our history lesson each year. my class was the last class that 9/11 wasn’t considered “history” for us. I may not personally remember it but I’ll never forget.
I've never met my dad due to this incident
I'm sorry to all the other people who lost someone special to them that day
Stay safe🙏
I am so sorry for your loss. Sending you much love.
I’m so sorry for your loss.
Wow sorry for your loss 😢
I am so sorry beyond words. This tragedy devastated our entire country, but your lose breaks me down. I am sorry there is so much HATE in this world.
Sorry for your loss
Still here. Still remembering.
Rest In Peace for every victim in every building, in every hijacked plane and everywhere else.
I remember when this was released on Disney+. I started watching the series right away, but it took me weeks to finish because it was too difficult to watch a full episode in one sitting. I cried non stop, I felt so sick to my stomach. An extremely moving and well put together docuseries.
I was 21 when 9/11 happened. I go down this rabbit hole every year. What do you mean when it was released on Disney+? Let me guess, you weren't old enough to remember when it happened. You were probably in diapers. You wasn't even born yet.
Me too. I live in Alberta Canada. I remember taking my kids to school that day and I couldn't control my emotions. The kindergarten teacher just gave me a look and I said "I'm sorry, but what's happening in the States is unreal". She gave me a patronizing smile and I left. When I picked my son up from Kindergarten, she had an entirely different look on her face because she didn't know about it earlier. She gave me the biggest hug and we both cried a bit. I don't know why that sticks out in my memory. We felt so helpless and couldn't do anything. But this series and Turning Point series on Netflix did a great job of telling a few stories about that day. ❤️✌️🇨🇦
@@laughingoutloud5742That day it was like having an anvil sitting on your chest.. 😮💨
@@james5emmaalthough the footage isn’t new, the documentary episodes are relatively new. And not everyone who was an adult then or not, has necessarily seen this footage. So since NatGeo is a part of Disney now, these videos have now become more accessible to more people.
I hope you do not mind if I interject here. I did a quick check on this UA-cam channel and found that it does seem to have some type of connection to Disney+ although I’m not certain what it is exactly. So it is possible that it could have aired there. I remember that day well as I was in my 30s at the time but living in Los Angeles California which was the original destination for at least three of the hijacked airplanes.
I had the immense privilege of visiting NYC for the first time in my 45 years of life and experienced the 9/11 memorial which was absolutely incredible and heartbreaking. The staircase that so many survivors exited to safety was saved intact…it was so touching to see with my own eyes some of the things that have been in news reports and UA-cam videos for years. It is truly a day that we will NEVER FORGET.
Though I'm not an American, this attack always leaves a scar in my heart
Same , I was 15 when I witnessed that tragedy in tv
Thank you.
Just never forget that the evil 👿 people who orchestrated this event are still orchestrating other events… the world 🌍 was lied to about 911… and unfortunately the truth still remains hidden…
Same here. I’m from the Netherlands but still watch and pay my respects every year. This was just devastating. All those lives lost and their loved ones lives ruined. 😔 Still feels unreal but sadly it was very real 😢
We make jokes about it but it was arguably the most tragic day in American history since Pearl Harbor. I was old enough to remember it.
As a New Yorker who has lived thru this, and lost loved ones… I still cannot watch anything about 9/11.
I am so sorry for your loss. Sending you much love.
I am so sorry for your loss, sending my condolences
That's okay. You don't have to watch this. You lived it. This video is for those who were not affected by the events. It's a wake up call on astronomic levels. May the Force be With You
I'm so sorry for your loss!! 💔🙏
❤❤❤❤❤❤
It's been 23 years and I still remember it like it was yesterday. The world hasn't been the same since. RIP to all victims of the attacks and the heroes who sacrificed their lives.
I`ve seen the footage of the first impact so many times but still when I see Chief Pfeiffer checking the gas leak and that firefighter turning his head up to the sound of the plane coming it gives me chills and a feeling of something cold inside. RIP all victims, condolences to their families. It doesn`t matter what origin you are of, we mourn for the deaths of ordinary people. Sincerely from Russia.
That's very kind, thank you. Please know that most Americans harbor no ill will towards Russia and her citizens. You validate that feeling with your humanity. 🙏
I remember I was having my coffee and watching the local morning news when the breaking news came on. As the horror unfolded, I ran into the kitchen and broke into to tears. All I could think of was all of those helpless people. what a day of tragedy.

I've watched many documentaries and stories about 9-11. I was 18 when it happened and I will never forget that day. Until this came out a few years ago, I had never seen the footage or heard the stories of the sound of bodies hitting the roof of the atrium. I cannot imagine being those firefighters and hearing that and still having to go and do their jobs.
When I watched World Trade Center movie, when Mclaughlin and his team were in lobby, there were these explosion-like sounds. I always thought it was some debris falling and landing or maybe building structure was making those noises. It was only much later when I saw documentary, video of firefighters in lobby and someone did mentioned what those sounds were. So many of them. Just horrible. And even more horrible to think that so many chose to rather jump to escape the fire and smoke in upper floors.
The worst helplessness you could ever imagine. If it were me, I couldn't live with that. I love to help people, saving people on the other hand I don't know, but just knowing how I feel when I can't help.... I just couldn't live after that.
To whoever is out there reading this message, if you are having a hard time just remember you are not alone and never give up. The person who is reading this message, i wish you success, health, love and happiness.

New York, its been 23 yrs. 9/11 will never be forgotten, people remembering this day in 2001 makes me go into tears and everyone else because of what happened to those people that got killed or had to sacrifice their own lives for their families etc, they didn't deserve this at all.
I'm from India. I remember watching the coverage on the live news. It was evening/night for us, and I remember, none of us slept. Next day, at school, no one was talking very much, and if we did, it was about 9/11. The teachers too, seemed to not be in the mindset to teach much.
It's been 23 years, and I still can't stop thinking about all the brave souls who went through tremendous horrors, and saved people. The firefighters, police, EMT and other rescue staff of NYC will always be some of the bravest human beings to have existed. 9/11 remains etched in the minds of people, not just in America, but across the world. And lastly, I want to say a few words for the good girls and boys, the rescue doggos...all of them, every single one, human or canine, heroes ❤
James Hanlon and the Naudet brothers filmed 9/11 as they were in the middle of it. In one of “life’s wrong time/wrong place moments” they were filming an unrelated documentary which placed them at the WTC when this happened. Can’t help but wonder if they’re still suffering from nightmares
Yes they are haunted by guilt for making a farcical fairy tale film to deceive a nation
They also filmed the only known/recovered footage of the inside of Tower 1 after the planes hit.
Although it must have been terrifying… what a dream for film makers to have all this footage! I love their story! ❤
Around 6:42 always gets me. The courtyard. It will never look like that again. A beautiful, simple morning. Torn away from thousands, as millions shuddered and cried. We will never forget.
well true so sad to know that this was once there but if we really where American's and not afraid we would have rebuild them again everything the same we could have but instead we have a disgusting one building looks like we are in Canda then nyc if there were built again take a while to fill each floor but empire state building nears 100 years soon and first open many floors where empty so intime we could have now all we have is disrespect for the dead with this sad feeling sorry for not them but ourselves Ashley
14:40 there’s probably no other clip in history showing how the world went from peaceful to chaotic in the span of 10 seconds
how fast one thing can change forever.
I was a 7yo kid playing with my Legos in the living room of my grandma's. My grandmother was watching something random at the TV. The hour was 15:50 (GTM +2 Athens).
Suddenly, the news popped up, showing that the North Tower was hit by a plane. A few moments after the South Tower was hit too and we heard that this was a terrorist attack. The news didn't stop until WTC 7 collapsed.
The next day, I made the towers with my Legos and asked my mother if we could leave them together with some flowers at New York. (I didn't know how far NY from Athens was).
Never forget!
What a sweet child you were. The instinct to make a memorial and send it to us. Bless you.

@@madeleinegrayson8372 I do appreciate this
@@donviglone7707 I appreciate knowing that you care.
I'll never forget the absolute terror my Dad conveys even today when he remembers not being able to reach my Uncle when cell service went out, said Uncle was supposed to be on flight 77 that day
Thank the gods he missed it by being a decent person (his friend ran late and he waited for him, missing the plane and saving him)
To everyone who remembers this sad and tragic day of 9/11 Will always be remembered 🇺🇸
Everyone in America was one on this day and many days after. I was in school. We sat there all day watching the news. Didn’t do any schoolwork. We couldn’t wait for justice. When the president said. They’re gonna hear from all of us. I believe we all felt that. RIP to those that lost their lives that day.
Unfortunately, as quickly as the following day, more and more people slowly started becoming Islamaphobic. 😞
Thank you for uploading this. I’ve never seen this particular documentary before. I think everyone should watch this every year. We can’t forget.
All of it is heartbreaking. I will never forget where I was (it was my freshman year of college and I was in the dorm with my new, now lifelong friends). I’ll never forget the nightmares I had in the subsequent weeks. There are certain stories I’ll never be able to shake. Acts of heroism I’ll never be able to wrap my mind around and will never, ever forget.
Seeing Father Judge standing there praying is one of the things that will always break me. One of the many things…
Incredible coverage of 9/11. I just now see how this all unfolded. And you can see so many real people involved, and close up . It makes me cry. What a nightmare
44:36 definitely seeing the people jumping, realizing that you are witnessing the last moments of someones life. Is unbelievably heartbreaking.! The horrible immensely loud sound of innocent livesl lost when landing reverberating through your mind.! Never to be forgotten.💔💔
Imagine that or burning to death bring your only choice ….just beyond terrifying and sad 😔
23 years ago today. We will never forget
@@chelseaperez2169Ahhhhh….no, that’s not necessary nor necessarily desirable. *The whole “forgive OR ELSE!” is a new age trope.* Period, the end.
Please allow others to grieve, to remember in what ever way they need to.
I remember two days before this happened, I told my mother I had this crazy dream. I was standing in the street looking at a pile of twisted metal and building debris, but I couldn't understand why there were airplane wheels in the pile. It was so vivid I could still smell the burning rubble when I woke up. Two days later, my mother woke me up and told me that the planes hit the towers. 23 years later, I can still remember the dream, and my mother still tells the story. It was, of course, a wild coincidence, but it was so eerie and sad I'll never forget it. RIP to all the victims and heroes who died that day.
On Saturday September 8, 2001, I had a dream that came in like an unexpected comercial when you are watching a TV show or a movie, I was having a long dream I don’t recall anything about. But in the middle of that dream, suddenly and out of nowhere, I saw the black tip or nose of an airplane going through a wall of blue glass. And that was it. I didn’t see smoke, or fire, or people, or even the full airplane. I woke up suddenly, not understanding, and told my husband the next morning. Today I still keep that image in my memory. Three days later I knew it was a premonition. I still get the creeps.
I had a dream a few days before but didn't think anything of it. My dream was of two silver mountains, and a plane went through the middle, leaving a wing shape hole in both mountains. I heard screaming, and the two mountains crumbled to the ground, as they were crumbling, I saw blood coming out. I tried to remember what I had been watching on TV to try and pinpoint where this dream came from. It wasn't until I saw the plane image hole in one of the buildings showing clearly a wing shape that I connected the dream.
I get many dreams of things, I dreamt about my Dad before he died. Do I have a gift? Or does an Angel whisper to me? I don't know, I just wished they made more sense so I could warn people. ❤
@csf7773 No, I live in Australia
@@janellekm That's interesting! I also had a couple more dreams after this event, but it was only airplanes. The one dream I had was that I was on a plane, and two kids were running up to the bathroom and back to their seats. A couple days later, a plane crashed, and the first two bodies recovered were children. After that, I didn't have anymore. Maybe you should journal these!
@pebblesshado I do now journal them, my sister and I once shared the same dream, we were being shown through a strange house. Our mum and dad were there, and they are both deceased. It was like they were showing us where they now lived or so I thought st the time. Mum kept on showing bedrooms, saying this would be Kenneth's room and showed us hers. She didn't want us to go near the stairs for some strange reason. Entry seemed to be like a bridge into the house. I had a sense of my grandmother being there, but I didn't see her. When sharing it with my sister, she mentioned that she could smell our grandfather tobaco. Approx 1 month later, our eldest brother had an accident, He was dying with liver cancer, which we didn't know, and he had a fall down his stairs from his house and apparently didn't die straight away. My sister went up to his house, which both of us had never seen, to help my other brother to collect his stuff. My sister rang me immediately to tell me it was his house we had dreamed of. I take my dreams seriously, and I don't care if I sound like a fool, but I tell people who are in my dreams that I dreamt about them and what happened.
My ex-husband had a meeting in tower 1. He overslept that morning. He was in hotel getting ready and watching the news on TV. It was SO close for him. Even though he is my ex, I wouldn't wish that horror on anyone. RIP to all that we're lost, the people and families who lost someone and for the brave men and women who are still suffering today.
The story about the mangled up lady who got labeled deceased but was still conscious and saying she wasn't dead always gets me
so true, it's heartbreaking
Do you think she was real or he hallucinated her? I always wondered.
@@christinap-c It's possible he hallucinated it. Then again, I've seen/heard many stories of people sustaining very extreme, gruesome injuries and not immediately dying
Hey should have called her daughter.
Me too.
Never forgotten.....my son (6 months) watching Elmo when the news inn Netherlands show this on the tv....he is now 23 years.
i was 19 years old. Now, I am 42 😢
I was 21, in school, and driving to class. I was listening to a sports radio station in Chicago when they broke in with the news. Like so many, my heart stopped and immediately went to the televisions inside the student lounge upon arriving at school. Shock, despair, heartbreak. So many more words. RIP to the innocent victims. We’ll NEVER forget you.
Who is responsible for this attack?
This is the most moving and well put together docu series I have ever seen on 9/11 so moving, so powerful 😢
The look on their eyes and reactions at 37:01, realizing this was no accident and the country - world, really - was forever changed. Haunting.
Yes
Crazy how the fire chief was being filmed at that exact moment when the first plan hit the north tower. Such a trip. Also the pentagon attack isn’t talked about as much as the towers. It’s still just as devastating
Building 7 wasn't mentioned at all.. or i missed it
I’m not an American and i was just born at that time. But it makes me cry. One of the worlds saddest days ever.
my dad still has the newpapers from the day this happened saved. I read them and it was so sad. RIP to all the people of lost their lifes.
As a New Yorker, I refused to watch anything related to 911.
Today I decided to watch this.
Its all coming back now.
Im going to need therapy.
To my Albo uncle who was a window washer in South Tower, Rip my shqipe. We all miss you.
bless you, i’m sorry for your uncle, may he rest in peace, take care of yourself
I can understand it being so devastating. Take care of yourself and get therapy. They will help you through it. You deserve peace. A high school friend of mine died that day and it’s still horrific 23 years later. Take care of yourself, please!
I saw Fireman Palmer and started crying. Even this many years later I still cry...
Real hero. 24 years old and this still don't feel real to me but it's starting to sink in now RIP to all those victims 💔
You sound like a crybaby
Yeah!? And people are crying right now from what the US has done and keeps doing to others in anothers land! 23 years and still haven't learned to keep your noses out of other countries. Cry a river why don't ya!
The sound of the second plane hitting tower 2 as well as the sounds of the debris falling are horrifying.
Exactly 😢
He came at 900 km \ h...
@@pontiffsulyvahn9527 500km
Not just debris....bodies...😢
Also people screaming their hearts out 😰😰
My blood still boils in anger when I see videos like this, even 23 years later. RIP to all the victims.
@15:53 as a fireman you knew this day was not only going to be a regular day but a day you will never forget. No hollywood movie could create the feeling im sure these brave men felt when they saw that.
I will always remember that day, the blue sky, the smells of an Indian Summer day, the shock the grief, the day Our Nation was United in suffering, when as a country we got on our knees and cried out to God, One Nation under God
Where was God that day?
Oh He was there
@@JenniferSmith-sz6op Which god?
@@JenniferSmith-sz6op God is a pigment of your imagination, Sappy.
Brian Clark and Stanley’s story is one I NEVER get tired of hearing. They had no idea how close they were to death yet lived to tell about it.
Those firefighters are warriors, heroes. It's beyond any words. To shake eachothers hands, and saying goodbye, and still going up : to save others. It is incredible.
That mentality..I have no clue how they did , and indeed do, it.
THANK YOU for producing this amazing documentary. It needs to be seen by EVERY AMERICAN. 🇺🇸 🙏💙
Thank you for putting this documentary together. To hear everyone's experiences from all areas affected is very eye-opening. I was just graduated from high school when this happened and didn't understand this at all, but this was the day that America and most of the world came together and united. Those affected by this day both directly and indirectly from this horrific day, I hope that you're healing is continuing and I pray that those who lost their lives are honored and remembered forever!
I still shake my head knowing that 1 person's hatred for someone can destroy so many people's lives. I pray nothing like this ever happens again and we never have to go through this again! God bless everyone again affected by this horrible day!
I was 20yrs old when that tragic day happened 😢😢 i still remembered everything from when i woke up that morning. It felt like a very long day 😢
I am watching this today 9/11 2024 23 years later after this happened I still get tears in my eyes and feel anger sadness and a wide array of emotion we must never forget this ever😢
For all of you who weren’t alive or were too young to recall or absorb the horror feeling. Do you recall how odd and scary Covid felt in the early days? Multiply that feeling by 1000 and that’s what watching 9/11 felt like from the television. It was even worse for the people at Ground Zero The Pentagon and Shanksville.
💯 I thought WW3 was underway, and I think many people felt the same way
I’m an extremely sensitive person if I see one person that dies on the news it hits hard even if it’s a stranger I hear see and feel this pain 💔 I don’t even need a comparison. I pray for peace to everyone everywhere everyday.
As someone who’s family is from NY, being born months before it happened i always felt like I should pay my respects and learn about what happened on this day.
The horrific acts we witnessed that day right before our very eyes I will never forget. Those images are frozen in time inside my mind and heart forever. I still can’t put it into words how I felt that day 😢❤
I was pretty young when 9/11 happened, but grew up in jersey 15 min outside of the city. My mom had an interview in the south tower at 930am. She rescheduled bc i woke up sick. It's a very foggy memory but my grandma came into my room and told my mom what happened, spent the rest of the day watching. It's one of my first memories.
We will never forget this day. My thoughts and prayers for all of those one's lost on this terrible attack. Prayers to my aunt missing that day too...I will never forget her. God Bless you all.
Rarely have I felt love for someone I didn't know but I love Ron .. what he went through was something I couldn't even imagine.
Thinking of the survivors and their loved ones today and remembering all of the victims. Rest in Peace Ron 💔 Your story has always broken my heart
There are many scenes that have never been released before anywhere else. Thank you NATGEO. You are the Best Ever! ❤
Today marks 23 years since these awful attacks. My heart goes out to everyone who was killed it lost family. Never forget ♥️
Sadly Ron Clifford passed away but at least he is with his sister and niece 😢
😢😢😢😢 didn't know that ❤❤😢😢😢😢😢😢
I watched this movie in class today and start crying. Rest in Peace to everyone who passed away, and if you lost a love one prayers are sent out to you.
Sorry to all the people who were involved in this horrible situation. Thank you 🙏🏾 for all the help and support to everyone who helped. 😢😢 I don’t know what more to say but thank you. 🙏🏾 😢
Stanley and Brian have such an incredible story. I never tire of hearing it. ❤
I know I agree their story brings tears to my eyes every time along with Welles Crowthers story.
