My father worked at the World Trade Center for many years, on September 11th 2001 he decided to take 2 days off of work to go do something fun with us. The best decision that he has ever made. He has since passed from cancer, but I cherish the memories every day.
Sorry for the lost, but he sure skip death for that time, that's the best decision he did, at least he have more time to live and feel sorry for the people who died there, and I'm not joking
The damn security guards said to "go back to work everyone" - they really didn't give no shits about safety. What if the other tower came down to hit the other one?
My mum worked in the second tower, she was in a meeting at the top of the tower along with some co workers. As soon as she heard the fire on the other tower, she evacuated. The people in the meeting decided that they would stay, and called my mum a coward for leaving. That was the best decision of my mum’s life, otherwise I wouldn’t be here today. The thing is, my mum isn’t a citizen of America, she is British, so that one business trip could’ve ended her life.
Wow!!! I'm so happy she left which is exactly what I would have done. I cannot believe others called her a coward for leaving!!! I guess they died that day since they stayed? I would have been like your mom and left even if people made fun of me for leaving. Screw that!!
The person who was saying “i hope I live” is actually a doctor who’s very much alive today. His video is titled something along the lines of Cameraman caught in the aftermath of 9/11 towers. He ducked down beside a car when the debris came falling down on him and didn’t suffer any injuries so he went deeper inside and tried to help out people, in his words “‘I need to find people who need help because I’m not one of them”. It’s a really insightful video and I admire him for his courage and kindness.
Obviously seeing the first hit would’ve been terrifying on its own but the whole other level of fear seeing the second plane go in, realizing it was a purposeful attack... Absolutely gut wrenching.
For the people who are young. The plane crashes felt like a nuclear bomb underground. I remember falling down and just sitting there waiting the huge mounds of smoke. I went home and turned on the TV with my dad comforting me. My heart really goes out for the people who lost a loved one. Yes, it has been almost 22 years.
Sadly to say.. those were missiles hitting the towers not planes.. and the towers collapsed because dynamite was detonated throught the building floors.. causing it to collapse the way it did. Thank our government 🤬
Shout out to the guy in the store who let all those people in he probably saved them from suffocation or worse...saving lives while so many where being lost...thats a good dude.
That dust was toxic too. So many firefighters and volunteers who helped with the rescue efforts at Ground Zero the days and weeks after the attacks got lung cancer and other pulmonary diseases years later. Some even died from those disease years later. Sad. The rescue workers weren't given any breathing apparatus while down at Ground Zero.
@@ccink3931 For one thing there's people in this world who would have and second fear makes you irrational which I'm sure there was plenty of... that day
I remember being in 7th grade history class when this was happening and my teacher turned on the TV and said "this is history in the making". It's still so incredibly vivid to this day.
I was in the 7th grade in history class as well, second period . My teacher at the time Mr. Apodaca turned on the tv telling us what was going on.. mind blowing
I was in elementary school when it happened, I remember my parents picking me up from school that day. I knew immediately something happened, I didn't know what tho. Years later I see what's happened and I legit cried the first time I saw it. Keep in mind I'm a grown man and seeing the horrible acts committed that day will stick with all of us forever.
I was a senior in high school sitting in science class when it happened. I remember the teacher in the classroom next to us running in and told my teacher " turn on the TV! A plane just hit one of the twin towers!" The rest of the day we just went from one class to the next watching the latest developments on TV.
This is just absolutely horrible. Imagine having the choice between jumping out of the building or die by smoke/fire. Just thinking of it makes me sick to my stomach.
Everyone that jumped didn't want to suffer by burning alive they jumped because they atleast could control how they landed and wished that hopefully they would survive
I've read that some people had been blinded by smoke and the engine fuel and were stumbling around, not knowing they would be falling out the towers. And some would have passed out from smoke inhalation too. I know that some would have made the decision to jump though and I can't even comprehend going through that. It's horrific. Imagine waking up, getting ready to go to work and not knowing the horror to come.
My dad knew the guy that recorded that video as a kid. He did, luckily survive. There’s a full video, he’s actually a doctor and helps others after the collapse. He’s still alive and well today. Dr. Mark Heath is his name.
@@PrestonFrankel yeah, I saw that video. Dudes a legend. I love how he said “I got to see if I can help people that are hurt, ‘cause I don’t think I’m one of them”. Those weren’t his exact words I think, but same idea.
@@elisecross2338 Yeah, if I recall correctly it was something like “I’m gonna go see if people need help, ‘cause I don’t think I’m one of them,” or something alone those lines, you’re right. Guy was an absolute hero, he’s still a practicing anesthesiologist today.
@@radityaananda9457 I don't know him personally but to the best of my knowledge there aren't any long-lasting severe effects for him. It effected everyone differently, though, he just had a relatively short exposure to it.
I was a child in second grade, and I swear that's the moment I became "conscious" as a child realizing what's going on, and seeing the adult panic was horrific for me
My father died because of this, he volunteered to go in and cut steel for days to try and save people, actually found a firefighters body where 100's clapped for him as he cried hysterical... he asked me, and my brothers to take care of our mother if he didn't return, I didn't think he would, but he did... little did we know it did kill him, he would get cancer from the fumes, and we buried him couple years ago. I'm so proud of him. I can't tell you how much it angers me with whomever was involved in organizing this horrible event.. but I know my dad is a hero. Love you man, til we meet again.
I believe the cancer started from the trauma and ptsd from this event . Diseases come from pain the heart . But just know your father didn’t Leave this earth without honor . He’s with our Heavenly Father , and yes you will meet him again and all of your loved ones . I’ll also see you there . Trust in Him . You’ll be okay . Love you
Dude my buddy just became a cop the year before. He dies of lung cancer from 9-11 a couple years ago. He was only 42. Crazy man. God bless your dad. May he RIP.
5:48 'I hope I live. I hope I live, it's coming down on me.' really sent a chill down my spine. He sounded calm yet terrified. I can't imagine how terrifying it was for him to deal with heavy debris falling all around him.
“We better get out of the way” Sends chills down my spine, he didn’t leave the camera man he helped him and motivated him. Some people are truly amazing… I have faith in humanity.
My dad was at an airport when this happened and he told me this one detail that stuck with me forever; when he got off his plane he noticed everyone standing very still just looking straight to the TV's in the airport with just the one same frozen expression of shock, he said not a single one of them were talking, just this joint onlooking in horror. That detail alone is enough to give me chills, I couldn't imagine what being in the plane or building, let alone in proximity of those twin towers would do to one's mental state.
Just imagining this scenario is terrifying, I cannot wrap my head around the concept of a quiet airport much less one where everyone seems mesmerized and heartbroken by screens everywhere. Sounds like a black mirror episode.
my mother told me that she was on base in texas when it occurred. no one was allowed to leave or enter the base as it was completely shut down. crazy how a tragedy like this can affect people all the way across the country
I remember I was in elementary school when this happened. All other kids' moms came to pick them up but I had to wait with my teacher bc both my parents worked in the city. She kept saying everything would be okay but I knew what was going on even at thay young age. I started crying so much bc I couldn't reach either of my parents. Both my parents worked near World Trade Center. Thankfully, they are still alive today and are healthy. But I will never forget that day when I was so desperate to know if my parents were alive. I was so scared bc the possibility of me being an orphan hit me that day and I am so grateful for my parent's existence. RIP to those who couldn't make it out this day ❤
I was in the same situation. I was in 1st grade and remember it so vividly certain parts of the day. All the kids were being signed out of class. My teacher and half of the kids left in the class had no idea what was going on, so she continued the class as normal. When my mom picked me up, she also picked up some other kids (friends of the family) and the only thing my mom could say was “something terrible has happened” . When my mother explained, I still had no idea the significance. My father was stationed at McDill AFB in Florida and knew Bush was in the state elementary school. My mom was highly concerned that my school would be a target because it’s the Elementary school for McDill. Thinking the terrorist might attack the school thinking that Bush was there. I remember going home and watching the news for hours. Still not fully understanding what is happening. My family took a walk to get outside for a bit after Bush’s speech and you can see the light of everyone’s TV on watching the news. I slept in my bed with a knife for months after this until my mother discovered it under my pillow. When she asked me why I had a knife, it was for the bad guys. Joined the military when I was 18 and think back on this moment all the time. Despite how anyone feels about the troops coming home. It felt like a slap in the face to me when I think about my brothers and sisters who died preserving freedom in our great country. Kids today just don’t know terror the same way we did. Watching the news live and witnessing people jumping off the Trade Centers. No fault of theirs, but there’s a generation gap for the people who live and remember it and the people who look at it as history because it was before their time. God bless everyone who experienced the worst of terrorism and god bless America.
Yup.... i was in 6th grade an my teacher heard about it an turned it on the tv for us all to watch..... still to this day i will NEVER forget what those asshole's have done....... An Now The fake president armed them with weapons of war...... May God help us....... Get Trump back into office! We The People! Have the right to over throw the govenment! Never forget that!
@alex Nd Oh boy, Listen I've been in your shoes before thinking everyone who believes in god is a moron. But in reality they just need faith. They can't live without god wether they're real or not and it's their choice if they want to think that. In my opinion you need to wake up from your crappy stance on reality.
@@antihypocrisy8978 Allah Akbar means "God is most great" in arabic. If you're trying to convey some sort of funny " Haha Taliban go boom" joke this isn't the time and place for it.
As someone born after these attacks I am grateful there are these raw on the ground videos. It allows people in my generation to atleast somewhat understand what happened rather than just reading about it in a paragraph of a history book
my grandfather was a fire fighter that went to the world trade center right before the collapse of both towers he was part of the rescue team that went there. After 9/11 he was diagnose with lunge cancer because of all of the smoke that he was breathing in even though he had the oxygen tank it did not last long. I have the oxygen tank he used during 9/11 and its the only memory I have of him. Hope everyone that lost someone during 9/11 is still hanging in there.
I’m so sorry that you have to deal with that, and I’m sorry that your grandfather he was diagnosed with lung cancer, I hope things will get better soon and everything is gonna be okay. ❤️🩹
@@AuburnFanSince2010 they did kill the terrorist groups leader smart ass. Iraq would have never been stopped because they constantly reinforce their troops and know their own lands very well. Respect the American lives we’ve lost due to it Instead of acting like a know it all
My mother told me a gut wrenching story bout this. She told me that she was caught in the debris of the 1st building. She lost my granny in the smoke, but she made it out JUST before the 2nd building fell and managed to regroup with her. Im now 18 years old, and it still turns my guts a full circle when i rethink of this story.
People like to be nostalgic and make up false claims. You want to hear gut wrenching? Go read what the United states did to cause this in the first place.
That messes with my head that you weren't even born yet when this happened. I tell you, that day was surreal. Only other time i felt like that was when the U.S. went into quarantine lockdown.
My grandfather was supposed to be the first plane that hit, he was going to NY for a buisness trip, 3 days before the flight he got sick and never went, happiest memory of my life so far.
I remember watching a video where someone was recalling this day, and they said that their partner called them and said ‘you need to put the TV on right now’ and when they asked their partner ‘which channel?’ their response was just ‘It doesn’t matter.’ and I just find that so chilling.
I heard that phrase from an episode of Sleepy Cabin. You know things are at their worst when someone says that. I hope it doesn't happen again in my lifetime. I was 13 in 2001, so I know. To this day, I have a phobia of black helicopters & haven't been inside of a skyscraper since.
21 years later and it still feels like yesterday. My wife’s uncle was killed in the towers that day. He was one of only 15 people that had access to the security command center for the World Trade Center. When the first plane hit he was on his way to a meeting in NJ. When he heard he immediately went to the World Trade Center to help. He went into the bunker where the command center was and unlocked all the doors. One of the reasons so many people were trapped is the security system was designed to lock the buildings down in the case of an explosion. He saved countless lives that day… he was called the “Guiding force from below.” Just wanted to add. He also stayed there to help guide people out. Knowing he was in a very dangerous situation.
I haven't heard that people were trapped by locked doors! That's never mentioned,,,omg There were so many heroes that day, on all the flights that crashed, God bless 'em all, those who survived, and those who were sacrificed
Blows my mind that there are kids in High School learning about this today who weren't even born when it occurred. They are seeing it as another historical event while those like myself lived through it and the trauma and fear that occurred after it for years and years.
I was a 3rd grader when it happened..it was haunting how all the teachers acted odd and secretive until tv hanging in corner on wall holding chalkboard was tuned in to gma i think after 2nd plane possibily but not before they collapsed...i have that in my head probably til i die
I feel the same. I saw it live on tv and my life is literally defined as "pre 9/11" and post 9/11". Flying became so difficult, everything changed and I still use it as a measuring point for things - like hearing about a celebrity and thinking "oh they weren't even born when September 11 happened". Now there's kids looking back on it the same way I looked back on the Vietnam war and shit
I was just a baby when it happened - I have an entire bachelors degree now… it’s not just kids who are learning this as a historical event. It’s wild to have been alive but not remembered it. I wish I could’ve seen what air travel was like before
The brutal attacks of 9/11/2001 must never be forgotten and society must give the survivors every conceivable support! The victims and their families must not be forgotten either. The war on international terrorism must be continued with all severity and consistency. The terrorist organization Al Qaeda still exists and the Islamic State (IS) is even more fanatical. I think it's completely wrong that NATO troops left Afghanistan. You should have stayed there. The local staff and their core families must be allowed to leave the country. Most of the blame for this disaster is Joe Biden, but the fight for democracy, freedom and human rights continues. May God give strength to all people who were hit by unhappiness that day as a complete surprise! God bless all victims and their families! Amen!
@@frankmueller6522 and the millions of innocent muslims in iraq and afghanistan who were brutally killed, murdered and evacuated by US forces must never be forgotten too
I was only six when this happened, but every detail of this day remains burned in my memory. I was in Pennsylvania, and school was canceled just a short while after class began. I came home to my mother sobbing in front of the tv, showing everything happening. Everything changed that day. May all of those who were affected directly or indirectly by this tragedy find peace.
Honestly, having not been born yet so my sensitivity to such events is next to none, I laughed at this part because I would've done the same thing. Just accept it. It's scary and I feel bad for laughing but I couldn't help but laugh. I felt like I was in their shoes. Truly terrible stuff honestly.
I got chills hearing that. I’ve heard people say a certain peace goes over you when you know you’ve got no choice but to just be, whatever happens. I’m glad to read he is alive and well.
Watching this when I was a kid was like watching a apocalyptic movie. But now, watching this as an adult, I finally knew how devastating it really was...
@Oli 599 then u shud know how nonsense it is to collapse due to debris. Even flight 93 is nowhere to be found. Just watch the original video. There's literally nothing
My dad was working working at a television center when 911 happened, he saw everything on every angle. My heart goes out to all of those who lost someone during that horrible time.
maybe you do not know,but the israli government had already informed the jew of those towers. maybe they don't tell you this. israel and saudi arabia wanted to bring America into the war in the Middle East to defend them against Iran. oil is a big lie,America spent the most
@@oky7011 he's talking about people who were killed on 9/11 from the attacks and most likely the tens of thousands of people who are still suffering to this day from that day
@@oky7011 your point is? It's still thousands of innocent citizens killed for no reason. The tens of thousands of people who died from the affects of 9/11, the people in the military who were sent out to war because of these attacks.
I was only two at the time. my mom told me she was trying to teach me to walk and she watched in horror as the second plane hit. She told me after she saw it on tv it she picked me up and doesn’t remember EVER putting me down until I slept that night . She told me the fear of the world she had brought a child in shook her to her core and she physically couldnt do anything but hold me. I can’t even imagine the fear of the people actually there experienced. Rest In Peace to all of the heroes of 9/11 ❤️
I just found out I was pregnant w/ my daughter & I was so sick w/ nausea (all day morning sickness) & all I could think about was what kind of world was I bringing a baby into. I just laid on the couch for days watching coverage & seeing those planes hit & the buildings fall on repeat, so sick w/ nausea & sadness. It was terrifying.
I was 15 years old just had my daughter a week before all this . My cousin call us that we were getting attacked , I was so scared I grab my newborn daughter she was born 9/4/2001 and took her to the restroom hiding . I was so scared and I was crying thinking I was gonna loose her I didn't get out that bathroom till the night . I was saying I just had a baby I can't loose her . Can't forget that terror . I just can't imagine the ppl that actually was there . Rip to everyone who lost there life's.
That time i was only 2 months old, but not lived in America, im from Southeast asia. Although i dont have any memories of this but rest in peace for 9/11 victims
My dad was a few blocks away getting ready for a meeting when the first plane hit. He and his coworkers didn’t think much of it at first, they thought it was like a small plane. A few minutes later a coworker tells them to come to the roof, and they go and see the gaping hole and the smoke and my dad knew IMMEDIATELY this wasn’t an accident. They stayed there for several minutes talking and arguing about what happened until one of the maintenance guys pointed up at the sky. Against a brilliant blue backdrop, a passenger plane was rapidly turning and descending into the sky above lower NY. My dad watched in horror as the plane slammed into the building, a sight he says he’ll never forget. After that he wasn’t sure what to do. Eventually he evacuated his building and joined a congregation of people heading north. He doesn’t remember where he was when the towers collapsed but he was far away enough to not be affected. One thing he especially remembers is being terrified as he heard another plane go over, only to hear someone point out that it was a USAF fighter jet, saying “that’s ours! That’s ours!” and everyone started to cheer. It boosted spirits on an otherwise terrible day.
Its a reflection of what USA did to other countries. America provided Guns and training to Talibanis to do the same act in Afganistan and to Russia. "When you pet a snake, you can't assume it will only bite your neighbor"
@@TheIndianVCC you act like all of us Americans ourselves are plotting the demise of everyone. Those poor innocent people that were killed that day did not deserve to die.
I think the worst was when they released the 911 calls and there was one of a man who was talking with the operator when the tower he was in started to collapse. His screams haunt me to this day.
I wasn’t even born yet, I’m 19 now and I am at a loss for words. I feel like the way this tragedy impacted everyone’s lives so drastically even 20 years later.
@Holy shit, it's a talking muffin I honestly think when Double Dare 2000 debut on Nick, that was the beginning of the 00’s! But one thing is for certain, LOTS OF CHANGES happened after 9/11
same hat; i was born just two months after all of this. my father was in new york at the time, but got home safely. he named me after the only song that could calm his nerves while all of this was happening. i have no memory of any of this happening but it still impacts me heavily.
6:04 that man literally opened the door even when the dust and smoke had already arrived, everyone who approached that door was helped by that man, I can't imagine the horror and gratitude of those people, the man was in a safe place and opened the doors for others, he is a hero I don't know if that area was potentially dangerous, I don't know if the people outside could have died, but the fact that it didn't refuse to open already speaks volumes, especially if it was in a maddening
yes, the people outside definitely could've died, because the dust and smoke was highly toxic and many of the people who breathed it in died of cancers years afterwards. He saved lots of people that day by letting them in.
I remember one of my math teachers were there during 9/11 and saw the whole thing unfold. Some of the kids in my class made fun of her for being too strict when it came to lockdowns or a fire drill or any practice drill. I didn’t know what 9/11 was at that time but when she talked about it..I couldn’t help but cry. I know why she is strict with drills. She’s doing well now and she’s a vice principal at my old school. I cant even imagine what went through her mind during that event.
Everyone always makes fun of the drills until a real shooter comes into their school and they immediately know what to do because of those drills. I'm glad she's doing okay❤️
My math teacher worked at the pentagon and was there during 9/11. Lots of kids didn’t like her but I was one of the few that did. Nothing but respect for her. She was also in the navy a very extremely smart talented woman.
Honestly I've seen allot of bad shit on the web not even the towers getting hit and collapsing got me, but the phone calls did. It made me say 'Oh my God, these are real people!' and when it hit hard, it hit HARD.
Although I wasn’t alive yet, both of my parents were there during both of the hits, my dad was 3 blocks away I believe and my mom was around 13 blocks away. My uncle on my dads side was in a building right next to both of the world trade centers I think, and he got trapped in a stairwell. My mom had to steal slippers from a store in order to be able to run away from the debris cause she was in heels. She cannot watch or hear stories about what happened to this day or she’ll break down crying. It severely traumatized her and gave her bad ptsd. My heart goes out to all of the people that are in her shoes, and those that had died.
I am Japanese, born and raised. At the time of this incident, I was in elementary school with little understanding of the world, and I was only vaguely aware that something terrible had happened in another country. Now that I'm an adult and I've seen this video of the situation in the area, when I think about the thoughts of the people on the plane and in the tower who had no way to escape, I understand that it was more than just a simple case of being scared. I pray for their souls. (I'm using a translation app. Sorry if there are any inappropriate expressions.)
God Bless the man letting people in the store when the debris was coming down, He very easily could've locked them out like some mean people would but he let as many people as he could in.
@@mark2073 It was engulfed in flames due to the other buildings being hit and falling down near it, and firefighters didn't contain the fire because it had been fully evacuated earlier. Also the sprinkler system failed. Some basic knowlege and research does you wonders but I guess it's a bit too much to ask for conspiracy theorists.
I am currently reading “Leap” by Brian Doyle for a creative nonfiction course at my university, and his essay/poem reflects on and remembers those who jumped from the Towers on 9/11. And now I’ve found myself watching these 9/11 videos on here, watching through the horrific and tragic day’s events. I was 4 years old and in preschool on this day, and my mother had to take me out of school. A native from New York, she was once friends with one of the fire fighters who lost their lives saving others in one of the Towers. His name was Joey. My heart and prayers go out to everyone who lost their lives, to the rescuers who tried their best, to the civilians who held on and tried to save their friends and colleagues in that building, to the pedestrians on the ground lost to the debris and bodies that fell on them, to all the grieving families ❤️
My mom worked at the front desk of the north tower and was able to get out of the tower. My heart goes out to all the people who lost their innocent lives that day, and my heart goes to their families who lost loved ones and may or may have not been found in the ruble of the attack.
To anyone that lost family, friends, spouses, anything, to this catastrophe, my heart goes out to you this week. I hope everyone has a safe weekend, and let's hope nothing like this happens EVER again.
Yes, I would too if I were sitting in bad CGI plane. The CGI is horrendous here, on other shots the plane is fully in shadow, on other shot the side is fully in sunlight. On 1.46 the stabilizers go haywire, parts of the wings and main body disappears. Those planes vanish inside the building (aluminium tinfoil vs. strong steel outer skeleton) and only then the buildings exploded from the inside out. It sure was a terror act, but the perps sit in the government.
@@juzujuzu4555 the plane came in on an angle. I watched the part you are referring to several times. You can see that the plane comes in on an angle. I know how this must be beyond your comprehension. I have not the time nor crayons to explain this to you. Put on your tin foil hat and do us all a favor, stay off the internet.
@@kcm4511 Dude, if you are that blind and ignorant then go ahead and be that way. The plane approaching shot shows the whole plane being 100% dark. While on the shot where it hits you can see that the whole side is directly lit by sun, like it should have been during the whole approach. Stabilizers go haywire, at one point parts of it is completely missing. Later the main body of the plane has large section missing, wing is missing. And the physics itself prove without any doubt that this was not aluminium tinfoil plane (which planes are compared to massive steel structures) hitting on steel building. I'm sorry the truth is hard for you, but all I can say is the truth. I have researched 911 in it's totality for thousands of hours and I have masters at physics, and know tons of people with similar or more knowledge on physics and engineering. The common trait is that every knows that this was faked. It was controlled demolition, among other things.
@@klytos5770 If you think telling the 100% truth is being disrespectful then that's your problem. I have been researching 911 for thousands of hours and have masters of physics, and huge amount of colleagues who also know what happens. Wake the phuck up as people who harbor these monstrous criminals are part of the problem.
I'm in the UK and this will forever be the worst thing I've ever witnessed so my heart goes out to everyone in America. All these years on it still hits hard 😢 xxx
My uncle was supposed to be at a meeting that day on the 96th floor. His meeting was going to take place an hour after the first tower crash. His flight was delayed, Then found another fight, made it to New York but got stuck in traffic on the way from the airport. Making him miss his meeting. I thank God everyday for that. Prayers to all those impacted and or lost loved ones. My heart goes to you!
God knows what had happened already way before that happened that why he saves some and to those who didn’t make it. It was what god wanted we don’t know what they did in their life but it could be bad and if they did not do anything god knows best
This really puts into perspective the frustration we feel when things go "wrong." I imagine the impatience and annoyance I might have felt and how amazed and grateful I imagine he was to realize those slight inconveniences were truly his saving grace. I will think of him and all those lost the next times I am tempted to "sweat the small stuff." We truly never know why circumstances change and what those changes may protect us from. God bless.
@Viktor Témun Garpelin what are you even on about, this is completely unrelated, aside for me the fact that you are criticising someone's opinion, it's quite annoying, please stop.
21 Years After This Horrible Tragedy And It Still Makes Me Cry. God Bless All Those Hero’s That Saved People’s Lives. You are TRUE Hero’s and you will never be forgotten. And Rest In Peace To Those Who Died From this terrible incident. God Bless The United States Of America 🙏🏾
I wasn’t born when 9/11 happened, and I’ve heard people make jokes about it and I never understood. But now that I know this information and have SEEN what happened chills me to my spine. I no longer think that anyone should be allowed to make jokes of 9/11 this is serious, and my heart goes out to anyone and everyone who has experienced devastation in this moment. R.I.P to the people who have suffered because of 9/11, we will miss you and you never deserved to die.
@Wings of Winter I made 9/11 jokes from time to time. However they get over Towered by others :D. Jk. all seriousness I do feel really bad about what happened on that day
I was six years old, in the second grade. I remember coming back home from school and seeing my dad sitting on the bed, quietly letting his tears fall as he watched the news. I didn’t really comprehend what was happening, but it was the first and one of the only times I’ve ever seen my Dad cry.
This was exactly my experience! Around the same age. Was also one of the few times I saw my dad cry. Seeing these videos and watching the documentaries still feel so traumatic for me even though I was so young. Such an unspeakable tragedy. Peace to the many families who lost loved ones that day.
Literally almost the same scenario, i waa in 6th grade 12 years old my my mother picked me up from school in jersey alot of people were gathered outside kinda distraught looking some people crying
Being hyperfixated with this event is a very gross feeling. Sometimes it's morbid fascination, and sometimes it starts that way and ends with you terrified and shocked. I was born way after the attacks and I'm obsessed with researching everything about it. It is truly incredible how awful humans can be.
Human History is all morbid. The Holocaust, The Rwandan Genocide, The wars in the Middle East and I could go on and on. War is awful and can easily change a human being into a monster. Those who witness these atrocities either reject the idea of hate/war/violence or embrace it. Don’t be terrified or shocked; this a cyclical thing that can only be broken by a generation willing to cohesively do so. Just try your best to live your life with compassion, love and peace and not focus on the fear of things out of our control. Hopefully eventually human kind will step our of this cycle but for now just try your best to not be apart of it ❤️
I have the same thing. I was born in 2008 and yet I’ve been fascinated with learning as much as I can about it because the last thing I want to be is ill-educated. I feel bad for it but I want people to know the brave people who helped many survivors of the attack, I want people to remember those brave and innocent people who died because of the attack. Although, I know Al Qaeda do these disgusting acts of terrorism for publicity. It’s a common pattern. They want the US (their main target) to know that Al Qaeda is a threat to them, it’s honestly very conflicting because if we don’t give Al Qaeda the publicity they want, their going to do a lot worse than 9/11. That’s just my take on this and I’d like to hear your opinion on this matter.
@@KyleWakes God forbid this never happens again... people shouldn't kill each other And now there are useless wars, unnecessary bloodshed How so? All this could have been avoided if people were more friendly....😔😔☮
True, but this was in the past and we need to learn to let go, and I’m not saying it wasn’t bad all I’m saying is that we need to finally let go of the ones lost, except for osama, he can burn in hell.
The fact that all this happened in a single day is just crazy, rest in peace to all those who have lost their lives and all the firefighters that risked their lives to try to save others 🕊️❤️
As an American who lived through this, I want to say that this coverage is one of the most real to what the feeling of that day was like. See something, say something. Never forget. Class of 2002.
I was born 2006...This was 5 years before I was a thing...now that I'm seeing actual footage...I can't do nothing but feel terrified....I hope nothing like this happens again...
@@i.vuk1668 … thank you for this thoughtful insight to my life experience that you so clearly know… and just so you know… this might have been the most ignorant statement I have seen online in awhile 😂😂😂
As someone who has lived through this it’s wild to me there’s generations behind me that will never know this terror!! As a 12 year old during this time, seeing your parents and adults scared and people literally scared for their lives because we didn’t know if the terrorists would strike again! This literally changed the world.
My father was scheduled to be on one of the planes that crashed into the world trade center. Just a few days earlier his flight changed and he got home earlier. Still makes me all scared just thinking about that. He always wonders what could've happened if he were on that flight. He wanted to save everyone. May everyone rest in peace ♥
I can't imagine what your father must have felt at the time. I'm sure everyone else who was getting on a plane to wherever it was they were going were getting the same awful thought of "Oh my God! Is this flight going to be hijacked?"
Teachers always talk about it in school, but they never mention *these* details. The videos of people screaming and running for their lives, the clip of a man running into a restaurant and a lady crying on the floor, and all of the lives that were taken that day. If anyone had any family in New York at that time, near these attacks, or even in them, my full heart goes out to you and your family and I hope you are must safer now 21 years later. ❤
Well it's not like they stop you from watching it on your own time. 10 year olds watching videos of people dying aren't on the cirriculum. Not meaning to be sarcastic, if I come off that way
I was on a Destroyer in the middle of the Atlantic in the Caribbean doing a counter narcotics deployment, watching the morning news (we were lucky and had satellite TV underway) and saw the news reports of the first plane hitting, in my division's officer's office, we both saw the second plane hit, I was 22 and hadn't put 2 and 2 together yet. He looked at me and gave me the most serious look I have ever seen in my life and said "we are under attack" I will never ever forget that. I will never forget that day, and the preparations we made to defend ourselves. I will never forget watching people leap to their death on live television. Everything changed after that day.
No TRUST ME they did show this. I was born in 1999, so I was obviously too young to remember but my mom told me all about it. She turned on the news, crying to my dad who was at work and trying to check out my oldest sister from preschool and my older sister from daycare. I wanted to comment this because they DID show ALL these videos in school, even as young as when I was 8 years old. I 100% agree on not forgetting this event, but there is no reason to be showing this violent footage to a child. Show this to them when it is really meaningful to them as an adult. Show them victim’s families, and rescuers families, not of people jumping out of buildings that scares them for life. Tragic event, love/respect to all families, and let’s hope this doesn’t happen again.
They don't get into detail probably because it's far too graphic to detail my aunt worked in T2 that day and from what she has told me you definitely don't want to know the details but its all over UA-cam witness accounts etc it's so much detail it's alot I have Mt own accounts but it's nothing compared to my aunts and others who were actually there I was 15 at the time in school in Brooklyn
I was in high school when this happened and it was truly the most terrifying day of my life. I remember how quiet the school was except for the sound of the news being played. It was a lot to process for the students and the staff. I’ll never forget it.
I was in high school for myself. I was senior. When I watch this. It was very heartbreaking. I was in Air Force JROTC at the same high school. And the 3rd aircraft hit the Pentagon. That made me real angry. And as whole thing went on. I'm not over it. It effected all of us.
Same, I was in 9th grade and in science class the morning this happened and all of the school's TVs automatically switched to live news and we all were in shock and silent seeing the second plane hit the tower on live TV! A day I will never forget!
@@mombiethezombie7536 how am I shoving it down people throats?, you just hate to hear the message! It’s legit only an message if u accept the message then let it be if it’s not then it’s not.
Rest, to all who died in this horrific attack. I hope that everyone who lost someone can remember those they lost, and forget about this event. My condolences to all of you. 2001 was a year we shouldn't have gotten.
My mother was there atop the World Trade Center a week before the attack. Insane to think that a week’s worth of time could dictate whether or not she and I could live.
my mother was on there a day before for i think an appointment and she wanted to do it on 9/11 but decided to not waste time and do it on 9/10 and its very scary knowing how it could all change with one descision
I crossed the road in front of a bus yesterday,. it's so insane to think that a second of time could dictate whether or not I would become a corpse splattered on the front of the bus 🚌🤡🙄🥱
I've never been to America or met an American personally and still this news brought me to tears. I think this is what being a human means, sharing eachother's emotions regardless of distances, ethnicity or race.
@@theseattlegreen1871 it’s not a towel. It’s a “lungee” (turban)*. I agree the American govt brought it upon the country but there’s no need to be so insensitive to the Afghan culture.
Im an asian muslim from southeast asia, as i have been getting called names by people online and majority of them are regarding 9/11 since i was little, ive been avoiding such topics and religious stuff as im afraid growing i will not getting a foreign friends and people think im a violent war criminals simply because im following the religious beliefs and being linked to these people, now im watching this to be more understanding. I hope our community will be better
People who blame an entire religion based on the acts of a few are no better themselves than those few. Someone acting on behalf of Islam to commit mass murder, is not a Muslim. I'm not religious in anyway but i know blaming one sector of people is what lead to Hitler reign. Lets all realise that every colour, creed or religion will have a few morons or nasty people, that does not mean, all are as such
The sights and sounds are terrifying. I was only 6 months old when this happened and lived outside America. My parents thought it was a scene from a movie but shocked and horrified when they realized it's real.
Apparently a bit less then 3000 people, but I am not sure if everybody even got accounted for. Imo 3000 people is not that many people, compared to the Ukrainian war going on right now. The insane thing is how they died, and how those buildings just collapsed, and how it was a completely normal day. What's even more insane is the motive for doing so. Who in their right mind, hates the US so much that they are willing to take their own life, just to take others. Religion can be scary.
It's just unimaginable how the passengers on the plane must have felt. Heartbreaking even 20 years on. I was only 5 at the time, but I still remember watching the news coverage and my family's horror at it.
Absolutely horrific. But at least they did not suffer. They just vaporised in the blink of an eye. Much worse was what people on the upper floors had to go through. They were trapped, surrounded by toxic flumes and flames. They were certain they would not survive, but they had to go through the terrific process of dying wether by inhalation of CO, being burnt alive or falling from almost 400mts.
Those passengers and the people working in the trade center and pentagon must've been really scared when they seen what was happening 💔💔💔 I'm scared just watching this!
@@tapele5987 Kevin Cosgrove's 911 call is heartbreaking. The panic in his voice as he desperately tried to get firefighters to help him get out, just for the tower to collapse while he was on the line. And his final scream before he died. It's horrifying.
@@tapele5987 I get what you're saying, but I'm positive there was a point where the passengers knew they weren't coming home that day. The passengers of United 93 clearly felt that way. Seeing the plane flying low and headed toward the towers must have felt like an eternity.
9:18 the old woman trying to run with all her bags really broke my heart I'm sitting here crying now and the screams in the backround are even more sad :(.I pray for all of those who still have memories of this day and moment and I'm sorry for those who lost their loved ones on that day I'm only 13 and remembering this story really makes me appreciate things more because so many people lost their lives trying to save others and themselves all at once:((.
I hope anyone under the age of 35 in 2022 reads this and understands truly from someone who was alive and remembers every second of this day when this happened. I'm Arab American and this day truly ruined my life for many years. When the second plane hit I watched in horror knowing thousands of people died. It shook me to my core. I couldn't understand why anybody could kill innocent people for no reason. I was watching it live in California at 6am. My dad's friend called us to tell us turn on the news at almost 6am on the dot. We were watching before the second tower was hit. Very weird receiving a phone call that early. Cellphones weren't really a thing in 01 and you called people's house phones. I was getting ready for my high school classes that morning. When the second plane hit it was surreal. I felt like I was watching a movie. Then the pentagon and flight 93 happened. We were thinking LA was next. Everyone was on high alert and every city dispatched the national guard. I was sitting in class at 11am pacific when the people started to speculate it was bin Laden. I was praying it wasn't Arab people who did this attack. When I heard "Ben Laden" I thought at first it was Israel or some KKK. But when they said Osama bin Laden my heart dropped with the most intense terror ever. I knew instantly that I was public enemy #1. What happened that day stunned us all and traumatized everyone. Not only did I have to watch this terror unfold before my eyes and shook me to the core, I had to suffer from racism for many years because of these idiots. I was ostracized for being Arab by many people. The amount of racism I suffered because of this would make anyone sick. It breaks my heart thinking about it all, but there were millions of Arabs in the US who had to suffer from the racism while we were hurting knowing thousands of people died for reasons beyond comprehension. We thought they were going to put us in internment camps like the Japanese in WW2. The terrorists did hurt America and this country never fully recovered. If you lived life before 9/11 you know that nothing has ever been the same. A truly horrific day and one that traumatized every American who was alive that day. Makes my heart hurt having to type this, but I hope it can shed light on that day for the people too young/not alive that day. Arabs in the US were victims for many years after this day even though we cried a lot. The US's racism against us will never be forgotten. I hope that the people who treated me like an inferior because of my race one day realize was bad like what those cowardly terrorists did to my fellow Americans
I am white, and I worked for a married Arab couple for a year, they are extremely polite people and will look out for you. People are ugly enough to scare the devil, but capable of kindness to make an angel weep.
I was only 10 years old when this happened. We lived with my 97 year old great grandmother who had Alzheimer's. I don't remember much about that day other than her asking if the Nazis were attacking and then her freaking out.
@@frozennppls905 its really not funny, but just imagining a 97 year old woman thinking that nazis are attacking new york in 2001 and freaking out make me laugh a bit. I feel bad for it.
2001 I was 10 years old and my father turned on the TV and my mom was serving me dinner. I was shocked I didn't knew what was happening but got really scared. I learned my uncle was there in that tower he passed away. I'm an Indian and I was terrified and the more I grew up the more I learned about the horrors and then 2008 happened in India in Mumbai and in that terrorist attack I lost my cousin brother.. My condolences to everyone who lost their loved ones. 🙏🏻
I will never forget that day. I was 20 years old. Living in 757 area in Virginia. Me and my sister was in the living room watching the news. We saw the second plane crash. We could've believe it. The smoke from the crash and tower collapse came way down here. I still pray for the lives we lost that day. Very sad
@@demovak1737 what's so concerning it's interesting to see how the even played out when you weren't there to experience it and now can fully understand
I wasn’t alive for 9/11 but now that I’m a teenager I realize how serious it was. I was at the chiefs parade shooting last February and now I know what it feels like to be glued to the TV all day, waiting for answers, terrified about who is dead and whose alive. I was terrified and 9/11 was much more serious than some shooting, I can’t imagine how scary it must’ve been. Prayers for the families, all these years later
I was 5 years old, living in the bronx when this happened. I remember my mother coming home from work in Manhattan, fumbling her words to turn on the tv. My brother's told me they remember being evacuated from their elementary school, seeing a classmate of theirs walking around aimlessly, sobbing because his mother was in there. I don't remember much from my childhood but I'll truly never forget that day.
That young girls reaction shows how terrified and confused people were. How shaken they were. It’s so horrific and all the people whom ran towards danger to help others my heart is so warmed and hurt at the same time
I remember getting ready for school when the first tower fell, and my father whispering under his breath, "All those people." To this day, I'm not sure why I went to school.
look up the call of todd beamer! he was on the plane that crashed in pennsylvania. he and a bunch of other passengers on the plane teamed up against the terrorists and (accidentally) caused the plane to crash. everyone on board died but they saved the lives of everyone at the intended target location
Honestly, it's a good thing that cameras was around during this time so events like this won't be lost to time and forever be remembered. Edit: Jesus fucking christ, stop arguing
Why would you want to remember tragic things? Isn’t that bad? Like people die 4 planes crash probably at the same time and one of them meant to target the White House. Millions of people die.
looking back at tragic events in the past is depressing, yes, but it's such a big mark in US history that having a memory of those lost that day is important for people in the future to know. granted yes, 9/11 was indeed a horrible day and is painful to remember for those who witnessed it firsthand, just that this is something we can't let go of. four deliberate terrorist attacks on US soil.
@@averagecontroller676 it's easy for someone to say shit like 'if there is no documentation of it happening, did it actually happen?' And besides this is an important day in history
@@ohioandnortheasterngood point but why do we need a documentary about dead people and events like I know learning history is good but we should learn what’s gonna happen in our future.
The first plane crashing is one thing, but it must have been even more freightening when the second plane hit, because it told people shortly after the first crash, that this was no accident. I was born in 2002 so I haven't experienced 9/11. But I live in NYC and I have heard various stories from folks older than me who have witnessed the tragedy.
The second was definitely worse because of that. I started watching the live news report after the first plane hit. It was terrible, but everyone thought it was an accident. When we saw the second plane hit, the realisation that it was not an accident washed over everyone. It was scary because you had no idea if there would be more attacks or where.
Yes, I remember it well. My sister woke us up and turned on the news about the first plane. We just thought it was an accident, but when that second plane hit, we were terrified because we were under attack. Being American, I have never known the fear of war in my home country. Everyone was paralyzed with fear. Who was next? Then we heard about the other planes. Everything ceased and shut down across America while we waited for more attacks. All plane flights across America were grounded for days. I had been to NYC the year before and visited the Trade Towers. I ate in the restaurant at the top called "Windows on the World" the previous year. I remember watching planes fly so close to the towers because Laguardia airport was nearby, every plane passing looked like it was going to hit the building. I kept remarking during lunch that the planes flying close repeatedly startled me and was freaking me out. It was very distracting. When this happened, I remembered the planes, and thought how the people working there must have been used to it and didn't see the plane coming because it was normal to have planes fly so close to the building.
I live in Canada and when i heard about the first plane, I was saddened for the victims. When I heard about the second one , I was horrified 😱. At 18 years old, going to college, It felt unreal!
@@RC-zi4vt there was one guy, army veteran, who was minding his business in lower Manhattan when the planes hit, and he didn't have the best view of the building at first but he definitely heard the explosions and screams and the giant cloud of debris coming his way. He quickly had to hide in a convinience store and he said many people hiding at that store were on the floor crying screaming "I don't want to die".
My father worked at the World Trade Center for many years, on September 11th 2001 he decided to take 2 days off of work to go do something fun with us. The best decision that he has ever made. He has since passed from cancer, but I cherish the memories every day.
Keep your head up man I'm so sorry for your loss
Edit: thanks for likes
Sorry for the lost, but he sure skip death for that time, that's the best decision he did, at least he have more time to live and feel sorry for the people who died there, and I'm not joking
Oh I'm so sorry for your loss 😞 but he is fortunate to have avoided death on that day in 2001.

More like dust..like the cement it was really toxic
The worst part is, that the first responders were rushing up both buildings to try and get everyone out. Not knowing the second plane was comming.
Oh man 😪
@Diya Roy you must be joking
The damn security guards said to "go back to work everyone" - they really didn't give no shits about safety. What if the other tower came down to hit the other one?
And if it wasn’t enough, both buildings fall and cause even more damage… horrible day that was…
@Diya Roy dude seriously? Like joking about this should be a fuckin crime
My mum worked in the second tower, she was in a meeting at the top of the tower along with some co workers. As soon as she heard the fire on the other tower, she evacuated. The people in the meeting decided that they would stay, and called my mum a coward for leaving. That was the best decision of my mum’s life, otherwise I wouldn’t be here today. The thing is, my mum isn’t a citizen of America, she is British, so that one business trip could’ve ended her life.
She is in Istanbul at the moment
Wow!!! I'm so happy she left which is exactly what I would have done. I cannot believe others called her a coward for leaving!!! I guess they died that day since they stayed? I would have been like your mom and left even if people made fun of me for leaving. Screw that!!

@@_cube_09 - Exactly!!! Me too!!

The person who was saying “i hope I live” is actually a doctor who’s very much alive today. His video is titled something along the lines of Cameraman caught in the aftermath of 9/11 towers. He ducked down beside a car when the debris came falling down on him and didn’t suffer any injuries so he went deeper inside and tried to help out people, in his words “‘I need to find people who need help because I’m not one of them”. It’s a really insightful video and I admire him for his courage and kindness.
iirc he became a doctor in part because of 9/11. he wanted to help ppl or something like that
him and the ship boats captains helped saved the day
*salute*

This is just absolutely horrible. Imagine having the choice between jumping out of the building or die by smoke/fire. Just thinking of it makes me sick to my stomach.
@David Lothbrok same... i grateful that i wasn't alive though
And if you survived the smoke/fire.. there was no surviving the collapse..
Everyone that jumped didn't want to suffer by burning alive they jumped because they atleast could control how they landed and wished that hopefully they would survive
I've read that some people had been blinded by smoke and the engine fuel and were stumbling around, not knowing they would be falling out the towers. And some would have passed out from smoke inhalation too. I know that some would have made the decision to jump though and I can't even comprehend going through that. It's horrific. Imagine waking up, getting ready to go to work and not knowing the horror to come.
And if you didn’t jump and somehow survived the fires you were killed as the towers collapsed
If you were alive back then, then you know how scary this shit was

My dad was at an airport when this happened and he told me this one detail that stuck with me forever; when he got off his plane he noticed everyone standing very still just looking straight to the TV's in the airport with just the one same frozen expression of shock, he said not a single one of them were talking, just this joint onlooking in horror. That detail alone is enough to give me chills, I couldn't imagine what being in the plane or building, let alone in proximity of those twin towers would do to one's mental state.
Just imagining this scenario is terrifying, I cannot wrap my head around the concept of a quiet airport much less one where everyone seems mesmerized and heartbroken by screens everywhere. Sounds like a black mirror episode.
Damn, imagine entering an airport, a place bustling with people, only to be greeted by complete silent and face of horrors as they watch the tv.
I don't care..I saw aftermath from Baghdad bombing...actually I did care..somehow I wonder should I felt bad for all of them or shouldn't I?
Peace
It makes it even more shocking when you find out he was on a plane not so long before that
my mother told me that she was on base in texas when it occurred. no one was allowed to leave or enter the base as it was completely shut down. crazy how a tragedy like this can affect people all the way across the country
I remember I was in elementary school when this happened. All other kids' moms came to pick them up but I had to wait with my teacher bc both my parents worked in the city. She kept saying everything would be okay but I knew what was going on even at thay young age. I started crying so much bc I couldn't reach either of my parents. Both my parents worked near World Trade Center. Thankfully, they are still alive today and are healthy. But I will never forget that day when I was so desperate to know if my parents were alive. I was so scared bc the possibility of me being an orphan hit me that day and I am so grateful for my parent's existence. RIP to those who couldn't make it out this day ❤
I am glad your parents were ok Hayame and I hope you have cherished every memory with them since
I was in the same situation. I was in 1st grade and remember it so vividly certain parts of the day. All the kids were being signed out of class. My teacher and half of the kids left in the class had no idea what was going on, so she continued the class as normal. When my mom picked me up, she also picked up some other kids (friends of the family) and the only thing my mom could say was “something terrible has happened” . When my mother explained, I still had no idea the significance. My father was stationed at McDill AFB in Florida and knew Bush was in the state elementary school. My mom was highly concerned that my school would be a target because it’s the Elementary school for McDill. Thinking the terrorist might attack the school thinking that Bush was there.
I remember going home and watching the news for hours. Still not fully understanding what is happening. My family took a walk to get outside for a bit after Bush’s speech and you can see the light of everyone’s TV on watching the news. I slept in my bed with a knife for months after this until my mother discovered it under my pillow. When she asked me why I had a knife, it was for the bad guys. Joined the military when I was 18 and think back on this moment all the time.
Despite how anyone feels about the troops coming home. It felt like a slap in the face to me when I think about my brothers and sisters who died preserving freedom in our great country. Kids today just don’t know terror the same way we did. Watching the news live and witnessing people jumping off the Trade Centers. No fault of theirs, but there’s a generation gap for the people who live and remember it and the people who look at it as history because it was before their time. God bless everyone who experienced the worst of terrorism and god bless America.

I remember watching a video where someone was recalling this day, and they said that their partner called them and said ‘you need to put the TV on right now’ and when they asked their partner ‘which channel?’ their response was just ‘It doesn’t matter.’ and I just find that so chilling.
I heard that phrase from an episode of Sleepy Cabin. You know things are at their worst when someone says that. I hope it doesn't happen again in my lifetime. I was 13 in 2001, so I know. To this day, I have a phobia of black helicopters & haven't been inside of a skyscraper since.
21 years later and it still feels like yesterday. My wife’s uncle was killed in the towers that day. He was one of only 15 people that had access to the security command center for the World Trade Center. When the first plane hit he was on his way to a meeting in NJ. When he heard he immediately went to the World Trade Center to help. He went into the bunker where the command center was and unlocked all the doors. One of the reasons so many people were trapped is the security system was designed to lock the buildings down in the case of an explosion. He saved countless lives that day… he was called the “Guiding force from below.”
Just wanted to add. He also stayed there to help guide people out. Knowing he was in a very dangerous situation.
Is he Mr.John Fisher?

There were so many heroes that day, on all the flights that crashed, God bless 'em all, those who survived, and those who were sacrificed
Blows my mind that there are kids in High School learning about this today who weren't even born when it occurred. They are seeing it as another historical event while those like myself lived through it and the trauma and fear that occurred after it for years and years.
its heartbreaking
I was a 3rd grader when it happened..it was haunting how all the teachers acted odd and secretive until tv hanging in corner on wall holding chalkboard was tuned in to gma i think after 2nd plane possibily but not before they collapsed...i have that in my head probably til i die
And there are kids walking around today in the U.S. that know almost nothing about it.
I feel the same. I saw it live on tv and my life is literally defined as "pre 9/11" and post 9/11". Flying became so difficult, everything changed and I still use it as a measuring point for things - like hearing about a celebrity and thinking "oh they weren't even born when September 11 happened". Now there's kids looking back on it the same way I looked back on the Vietnam war and shit
I was just a baby when it happened - I have an entire bachelors degree now… it’s not just kids who are learning this as a historical event. It’s wild to have been alive but not remembered it. I wish I could’ve seen what air travel was like before
It was horrible just seeing the plane crash into the building, all the deaths.
The brutal attacks of 9/11/2001 must never be forgotten and society must give the survivors every conceivable support! The victims and their families must not be forgotten either. The war on international terrorism must be continued with all severity and consistency. The terrorist organization Al Qaeda still exists and the Islamic State (IS) is even more fanatical. I think it's completely wrong that NATO troops left Afghanistan. You should have stayed there. The local staff and their core families must be allowed to leave the country. Most of the blame for this disaster is Joe Biden, but the fight for democracy, freedom and human rights continues. May God give strength to all people who were hit by unhappiness that day as a complete surprise! God bless all victims and their families! Amen!

My dad was a few blocks away getting ready for a meeting when the first plane hit. He and his coworkers didn’t think much of it at first, they thought it was like a small plane. A few minutes later a coworker tells them to come to the roof, and they go and see the gaping hole and the smoke and my dad knew IMMEDIATELY this wasn’t an accident.
They stayed there for several minutes talking and arguing about what happened until one of the maintenance guys pointed up at the sky. Against a brilliant blue backdrop, a passenger plane was rapidly turning and descending into the sky above lower NY. My dad watched in horror as the plane slammed into the building, a sight he says he’ll never forget.
After that he wasn’t sure what to do. Eventually he evacuated his building and joined a congregation of people heading north. He doesn’t remember where he was when the towers collapsed but he was far away enough to not be affected. One thing he especially remembers is being terrified as he heard another plane go over, only to hear someone point out that it was a USAF fighter jet, saying “that’s ours! That’s ours!” and everyone started to cheer. It boosted spirits on an otherwise terrible day.

6:04 that man literally opened the door even when the dust and smoke had already arrived, everyone who approached that door was helped by that man, I can't imagine the horror and gratitude of those people, the man was in a safe place and opened the doors for others, he is a hero

I respect the man a ton for doing that. He let them in like you said even when the smoke was there. He's a hero.
That simple, "You okay?" he says is one of the most human and sincere occurrences to come of this atrocity...

On 1.46 the stabilizers go haywire, parts of the wings and main body disappears. Those planes vanish inside the building (aluminium tinfoil vs. strong steel outer skeleton) and only then the buildings exploded from the inside out.

The plane approaching shot shows the whole plane being 100% dark. While on the shot where it hits you can see that the whole side is directly lit by sun, like it should have been during the whole approach.
Stabilizers go haywire, at one point parts of it is completely missing. Later the main body of the plane has large section missing, wing is missing.
And the physics itself prove without any doubt that this was not aluminium tinfoil plane (which planes are compared to massive steel structures) hitting on steel building.

It was an inside job
I was six years old, in the second grade. I remember coming back home from school and seeing my dad sitting on the bed, quietly letting his tears fall as he watched the news. I didn’t really comprehend what was happening, but it was the first and one of the only times I’ve ever seen my Dad cry.
It was my first year teaching. I taught 2nd grade.
@@lorrainefoster1320 oh cool!
This was exactly my experience! Around the same age. Was also one of the few times I saw my dad cry. Seeing these videos and watching the documentaries still feel so traumatic for me even though I was so young. Such an unspeakable tragedy. Peace to the many families who lost loved ones that day.
Literally almost the same scenario, i waa in 6th grade 12 years old my my mother picked me up from school in jersey alot of people were gathered outside kinda distraught looking some people crying
How were you in second grade at 6 years old?
Being hyperfixated with this event is a very gross feeling. Sometimes it's morbid fascination, and sometimes it starts that way and ends with you terrified and shocked. I was born way after the attacks and I'm obsessed with researching everything about it. It is truly incredible how awful humans can be.
Tengo un sentimiento similar al tuyo, cómo algunos hombres por el poder son capaz de matar a otros seres humanos. 😞
Human History is all morbid. The Holocaust, The Rwandan Genocide, The wars in the Middle East and I could go on and on. War is awful and can easily change a human being into a monster. Those who witness these atrocities either reject the idea of hate/war/violence or embrace it. Don’t be terrified or shocked; this a cyclical thing that can only be broken by a generation willing to cohesively do so. Just try your best to live your life with compassion, love and peace and not focus on the fear of things out of our control. Hopefully eventually human kind will step our of this cycle but for now just try your best to not be apart of it ❤️

@@CarlosLopez-qn6it damn same shit
I have the same thing. I was born in 2008 and yet I’ve been fascinated with learning as much as I can about it because the last thing I want to be is ill-educated. I feel bad for it but I want people to know the brave people who helped many survivors of the attack, I want people to remember those brave and innocent people who died because of the attack.
Although, I know Al Qaeda do these disgusting acts of terrorism for publicity. It’s a common pattern. They want the US (their main target) to know that Al Qaeda is a threat to them, it’s honestly very conflicting because if we don’t give Al Qaeda the publicity they want, their going to do a lot worse than 9/11.
That’s just my take on this and I’d like to hear your opinion on this matter.
Rest In Peace to all innocents and beautiful souls who lost their life against someone's stupidity.

As someone who has lived through this it’s wild to me there’s generations behind me that will never know this terror!! As a 12 year old during this time, seeing your parents and adults scared and people literally scared for their lives because we didn’t know if the terrorists would strike again! This literally changed the world.
My father was scheduled to be on one of the planes that crashed into the world trade center. Just a few days earlier his flight changed and he got home earlier. Still makes me all scared just thinking about that. He always wonders what could've happened if he were on that flight. He wanted to save everyone. May everyone rest in peace ♥
I can't imagine what your father must have felt at the time. I'm sure everyone else who was getting on a plane to wherever it was they were going were getting the same awful thought of "Oh my God! Is this flight going to be hijacked?"
"He always wonders what could've happened if he were on that flight" Im no professional but i guess idono maybe DIE TOO?

Teachers always talk about it in school, but they never mention *these* details. The videos of people screaming and running for their lives, the clip of a man running into a restaurant and a lady crying on the floor, and all of the lives that were taken that day.

Well it's not like they stop you from watching it on your own time. 10 year olds watching videos of people dying aren't on the cirriculum. Not meaning to be sarcastic, if I come off that way
I was on a Destroyer in the middle of the Atlantic in the Caribbean doing a counter narcotics deployment, watching the morning news (we were lucky and had satellite TV underway) and saw the news reports of the first plane hitting, in my division's officer's office, we both saw the second plane hit, I was 22 and hadn't put 2 and 2 together yet. He looked at me and gave me the most serious look I have ever seen in my life and said "we are under attack" I will never ever forget that. I will never forget that day, and the preparations we made to defend ourselves.
I will never forget watching people leap to their death on live television. Everything changed after that day.
No TRUST ME they did show this. I was born in 1999, so I was obviously too young to remember but my mom told me all about it. She turned on the news, crying to my dad who was at work and trying to check out my oldest sister from preschool and my older sister from daycare.
I wanted to comment this because they DID show ALL these videos in school, even as young as when I was 8 years old. I 100% agree on not forgetting this event, but there is no reason to be showing this violent footage to a child. Show this to them when it is really meaningful to them as an adult. Show them victim’s families, and rescuers families, not of people jumping out of buildings that scares them for life.
Tragic event, love/respect to all families, and let’s hope this doesn’t happen again.
They don't get into detail probably because it's far too graphic to detail my aunt worked in T2 that day and from what she has told me you definitely don't want to know the details but its all over UA-cam witness accounts etc it's so much detail it's alot I have Mt own accounts but it's nothing compared to my aunts and others who were actually there I was 15 at the time in school in Brooklyn
scary huh
I was in high school when this happened and it was truly the most terrifying day of my life. I remember how quiet the school was except for the sound of the news being played. It was a lot to process for the students and the staff. I’ll never forget it.
I was in high school for myself. I was senior. When I watch this. It was very heartbreaking. I was in Air Force JROTC at the same high school. And the 3rd aircraft hit the Pentagon. That made me real angry. And as whole thing went on. I'm not over it. It effected all of us.
Same, I was in 9th grade and in science class the morning this happened and all of the school's TVs automatically switched to live news and we all were in shock and silent seeing the second plane hit the tower on live TV! A day I will never forget!

People who blame an entire religion based on the acts of a few are no better themselves than those few. Someone acting on behalf of Islam to commit mass murder, is not a Muslim.

Yeah but they didn’t get Covid or Monkey Pox.
Things even out after while
I still can't believe the government knew it would happen and didn't want anyone.
Apparently a bit less then 3000 people, but I am not sure if everybody even got accounted for.
Imo 3000 people is not that many people, compared to the Ukrainian war going on right now.
The insane thing is how they died, and how those buildings just collapsed, and how it was a completely normal day.
What's even more insane is the motive for doing so. Who in their right mind, hates the US so much that they are willing to take their own life, just to take others.
Religion can be scary.
It's just unimaginable how the passengers on the plane must have felt. Heartbreaking even 20 years on. I was only 5 at the time, but I still remember watching the news coverage and my family's horror at it.
Absolutely horrific. But at least they did not suffer. They just vaporised in the blink of an eye.
Much worse was what people on the upper floors had to go through. They were trapped, surrounded by toxic flumes and flames. They were certain they would not survive, but they had to go through the terrific process of dying wether by inhalation of CO, being burnt alive or falling from almost 400mts.
When I see the first plane fly in and crash I can only imagine what those poor souls thoughts are as their life ends.
Those passengers and the people working in the trade center and pentagon must've been really scared when they seen what was happening 💔💔💔 I'm scared just watching this!

Kevin Cosgrove's 911 call is heartbreaking. The panic in his voice as he desperately tried to get firefighters to help him get out, just for the tower to collapse while he was on the line. And his final scream before he died. It's horrifying.
@@tapele5987 I get what you're saying, but I'm positive there was a point where the passengers knew they weren't coming home that day. The passengers of United 93 clearly felt that way. Seeing the plane flying low and headed toward the towers must have felt like an eternity.

6:28 too :(((
I hope anyone under the age of 35 in 2022 reads this and understands truly from someone who was alive and remembers every second of this day when this happened. I'm Arab American and this day truly ruined my life for many years. When the second plane hit I watched in horror knowing thousands of people died. It shook me to my core. I couldn't understand why anybody could kill innocent people for no reason. I was watching it live in California at 6am. My dad's friend called us to tell us turn on the news at almost 6am on the dot. We were watching before the second tower was hit. Very weird receiving a phone call that early. Cellphones weren't really a thing in 01 and you called people's house phones. I was getting ready for my high school classes that morning. When the second plane hit it was surreal. I felt like I was watching a movie. Then the pentagon and flight 93 happened. We were thinking LA was next. Everyone was on high alert and every city dispatched the national guard. I was sitting in class at 11am pacific when the people started to speculate it was bin Laden. I was praying it wasn't Arab people who did this attack. When I heard "Ben Laden" I thought at first it was Israel or some KKK. But when they said Osama bin Laden my heart dropped with the most intense terror ever. I knew instantly that I was public enemy #1. What happened that day stunned us all and traumatized everyone. Not only did I have to watch this terror unfold before my eyes and shook me to the core, I had to suffer from racism for many years because of these idiots. I was ostracized for being Arab by many people. The amount of racism I suffered because of this would make anyone sick. It breaks my heart thinking about it all, but there were millions of Arabs in the US who had to suffer from the racism while we were hurting knowing thousands of people died for reasons beyond comprehension. We thought they were going to put us in internment camps like the Japanese in WW2. The terrorists did hurt America and this country never fully recovered. If you lived life before 9/11 you know that nothing has ever been the same. A truly horrific day and one that traumatized every American who was alive that day. Makes my heart hurt having to type this, but I hope it can shed light on that day for the people too young/not alive that day. Arabs in the US were victims for many years after this day even though we cried a lot. The US's racism against us will never be forgotten. I hope that the people who treated me like an inferior because of my race one day realize was bad like what those cowardly terrorists did to my fellow Americans
I sorry you had to endure this. Few people understand that bin Laden harmed a lot more Muslims & Arabs than anyone else.
I am white, and I worked for a married Arab couple for a year, they are extremely polite people and will look out for you. People are ugly enough to scare the devil, but capable of kindness to make an angel weep.

The first plane crashing is one thing, but it must have been even more freightening when the second plane hit, because it told people shortly after the first crash, that this was no accident. I was born in 2002 so I haven't experienced 9/11. But I live in NYC and I have heard various stories from folks older than me who have witnessed the tragedy.
What did the folks say?
The second was definitely worse because of that. I started watching the live news report after the first plane hit. It was terrible, but everyone thought it was an accident. When we saw the second plane hit, the realisation that it was not an accident washed over everyone. It was scary because you had no idea if there would be more attacks or where.
Yes, I remember it well. My sister woke us up and turned on the news about the first plane. We just thought it was an accident, but when that second plane hit, we were terrified because we were under attack. Being American, I have never known the fear of war in my home country. Everyone was paralyzed with fear. Who was next?
Then we heard about the other planes. Everything ceased and shut down across America while we waited for more attacks. All plane flights across America were grounded for days.
I had been to NYC the year before and visited the Trade Towers. I ate in the restaurant at the top called "Windows on the World" the previous year.
I remember watching planes fly so close to the towers because Laguardia airport was nearby, every plane passing looked like it was going to hit the building. I kept remarking during lunch that the planes flying close repeatedly startled me and was freaking me out. It was very distracting. When this happened, I remembered the planes, and thought how the people working there must have been used to it and didn't see the plane coming because it was normal to have planes fly so close to the building.
I live in Canada and when i heard about the first plane, I was saddened for the victims. When I heard about the second one , I was horrified 😱. At 18 years old, going to college, It felt unreal!
@@RC-zi4vt there was one guy, army veteran, who was minding his business in lower Manhattan when the planes hit, and he didn't have the best view of the building at first but he definitely heard the explosions and screams and the giant cloud of debris coming his way. He quickly had to hide in a convinience store and he said many people hiding at that store were on the floor crying screaming "I don't want to die".
