Same.... That and seeing another video on here where a female first responder was helping with the cleanup saying that a father came up to her, both hands full of his son's bones, and tells her, "This is my son." She tears up, and says, "What do you say to that?" .... That hit my heart so hard too.
search "a tale of two towers" the 9/11 doc. There is a survivor who saw a pregnant woman impact the ground, split open, and witnessed the baby bounce out with the cord attached
@@RussellB omg I was reading the first comment and I can't believe someone else remembered that documentary . I will never forget that documentary and story of the unborn baby :( I remember they said it was like a watermelon just opening 😔😔 soooo horrible and sad . Both baby and the Mama are in heaven . Together ❤
This museum was one of the most beautiful and saddening places I've ever been. You could just feel the sorrow there, I couldn't step foot in the area with all the pictures of the victims. It hurt my heart so bad, I pray for the victims and their families.
I encourage everyone, from all nations to visit this memorial. It’s unbelievable. It’s absolutely the most emotional and moving place I’ve ever been to. It truly is quite, even in the middle of downtown Manhattan. Personally my most emotional moment was the tribute to the jumpers, but the borderline private tribute to them, was so beautiful. Them being remembered. Forever. ❤️🇺🇸
I agree it is a fabulous testimony to honor these lives lost. Something I will never forget and I would encourage everyone if they have the opportunity to visit N.Y. To visit.
I was there on Saturday. You still feel the pain and energy all those people felt when you walk through those doors. I honestly felt so sad, they had so many things to show, information as well. You should go
I've been to the memorial museum in 2015 and the atmosphere really was breathtaking. I was only 4 years old when 9/11 happened but I do remember seeing it unfold live on TV. Going to the memorial was one of my biggest wishes when we visited New York City from Europe. And honestly, the curators of this museum created the perfect place to remember not only 9/11 but also the buildings themselves, from the people that designed and build them, the people that died in them to the people that searched for survivors and removed the debris from Ground Zero. Every part of the museum was planned perfectly and with so much dignity to its purpose. Seeing this reminds me of the overwhelming experience of visiting and it makes me happy to know that so many people put so much effort and dedication into the creation of this jewel of a memorial.
It’s beyond words how it makes you feel while you are there. . I’ll never forget it. So glad I had the opportunity to visit and you feel as if you are paying your respects it is a beautiful tribute to one of the darkest times in America. , I felt it was my duty to honor these innocent victims.and never forget.
I was 10 and I only remember a few details. I doubt you actually remember the live footage when it happened. You’re probably drawing from memories of watching the footage later on.
111%michigan girl Don’t take what a couple of people did or what a group of people did in a religion and bring it apon all of them.Its not fair.But yes everyone who wants to cause tragic events like this need to be thrown out of this universe
@Divine Thunder Blame the CIA if you like - end of the day, Iranians are responsible for their own actions. Islam is the religion of 99.5% of Iranians - it's an Islamic state, period. Few of the hijackers or planners of 9/11 represented the views of their native countries - but nevertheless, nearly all states whose primarily goals are centered around the furtherance of Islam had actors that supported the 9/11 violence.
My wife and I went to see the Museum in 2018. I was living in NYC while the One World Trade Center was being built, but left shortly before it finished. So going to the museum and then going to the top of the Freedom Tower was something I desperately wanted to do. It is a deeply moving experience. God bless the men and women who have dedicated their lives to helping us all to never forget.
I like to think that those who jumped from those broken windows didnt see that drop out the window but instead I like to think God showed them paradise and they just stepped into out and into paradise. No ugly fall, no pain, no fear just peace .
I went to that museum last October. I was 22 when I went. I went with my sister and 2 friends, all of whom are younger than me. We all left feeling chilled. Not only because of what we saw but also because of what we learned. I was born in 1997 and the youngest in my group was born in 2001. This video was correct. None of us have any memories from that day. That’s what really got us.
I was 18 years old, a few months after I graduated from high school and I was working and listening to the radio a morning show and mentioned the WTC was hit and then the second one was hit and I remember the lady in background say Oh my God. Then the DJ said this was on purpose, this is terrorism. Then I knew everything changed.
So hard for every family there...even so sad for people just watching it...so many life's on one day ....i cried watching it on the news ...not being able to help feel so bad ...
I went on 9/11 the year it opened. I can attest, it is truly breathtaking and chilling. It was silent, everyone can feel the realness and there was respect and recognition of where we were. Not a single life lost was forgotten, there’s a digital wall with everyone’s face that you can select the person to hear their bio from family as talked about 9:30. So delicately and well planned out.
I have visited the 9/11 Memorial & Museum and I thought it was beautifully displayed and covered so much in a respectful subtle way. It touched on every happening of that horrific day. I plan to return again to the museum one day.
I’m not old enough to remember it in person but I always will remember what my dad told me I was doing, sitting on the living room floor playing with Nascar toys while my dad sat in the chair in silence watching the tv in Rural Indiana
As an Irish tourist with a group of holidaymakers, my sister took many photos of inside one of Twin Towers on 11th September, 2000, precisely one year before both buildings collapsed. She has many photos of diners and workers inside a rooftop restaurant. Sadly, most of those people died the year after. Rest in peace, victims. Had my sister picked the year 2001 instead of 2000 for touring inside either of those buildings, she would have never survived. When the first tower was hit, I was in my parents' shop in Ireland. Live news came on TV. We were all shocked. In our shop, I called American tourists into our private room to watch live news on TV, as I thought they needed first-hand news from their homeland. They were as shocked as we were. They never expected terrorism on their home soil.
I went to this museum almost four years ago. I was only 7 when 9/11 happened, so I somewhat remember that day and better understood why it happened when I got older. This museum is hard to describe. It has an air of sadness and unity at the same time. Honestly, I was fine walking through it to begin with, but then I came to that room with all of the pictures of the victims. That's where I lost it. To see all of the faces of people whose lives were cut short because of evil was just... awful. I'm tearing up just thinking about it again. I pray that those who don't remember it or know about it are made aware of it as they get older; people like my own son. I pray everyone gets the chance to visit this museum at some point in their lives.
I can’t even begin to imagine the terror and agony of having to choose the method in which I am being murdered. Do I burn to death? Choke to death on the toxic smoke? Jump out the window 70-80 stories up? Just totally sad! RIP to all those poor, innocent souls that were trapped up there in those buildings. I can’t even begin to imagine how scared and helpless they had to have been feeling. Scared bc they didn’t exactly know what was happening. They were surrounded by smoke, intense heat, fire, and, I’m sure, a lot of injured people. And helpless bc they were stuck up there without any way to help themselves. Instead, having to wait for a rescue that would never happen. I hope that when those buildings came down, those trapped inside died quickly and didn’t feel any pain or suffering.
I visited the museum last year. In 2022. I feel they did an amazing job capturing the moments, and honoring the victims perfectly. After 21 years, I feel like I finally got some closure. I did not lose anybody but I had a very hard time with it. The museum is beautifully done and The reflecting pools are absolutely incredible.
This is the part of the museum where I heard a visitor sobbing so loudly and storming out of the room that I had to just quietly step out myself. Seeing the actual faces/voices broke my heart.
I live in the UK and I would love to see this museum, to make the pilgrimage as it were, because this date in history had a profound effect on me and needs to be remembered. I was last in NYC in June 1996 as an overnight stopover at the start of a holiday. I arrived at my hotel feeling very tired and turned down an offer to go sight seeing that evening - a decision I have always regretted. Had I not, I may have been able to see the towers in all their majestic glory before they were so brutally taken from us. I hope that one day I will see this city, this place that lives in our hearts and minds, once again.
I wasn’t alive for 9/11 I was born a few years after and never lost anyone I loved but I still cry and feel so sad when learning about this tragedy for anyone who did loose someone or had to witness the whole ordeal I’m so sorry to you guys and I wish you the best in recovering from this...❤️
I was one when this happened. According to my parents, even that young I was glued to the TV. I remember every year at school here in CA having a moment of silence for the victims. Never forget them
I was 11 years old on my way to school. And watched the second plane crash into the building live on TV... I remember hearing witnesses to the first plane crash telling the reporters on TV how they at first thought it had been an accidental plane crash. But then realizing it was an deliberate terrorist attack once the second plane hit. I will never forget watching people jump to their deaths live on television it was something I hope I never see again.
I was about your age when it happened, 12 years old. Our teacher rolled in the 'tv cart' several minutes before the second plane hit. My entire classroom watched it live, screaming. We saw many people fall. Too many. I don't feel like I was ever OK after that.
I'm from a small town in England and someone who died in the towers was born and raised in another small town very close to my town. There were people lost from all over the world, it's so sad how many were lost.
I haven’t been to NYC but when I do the 9/11 memorial is a must-see. I’m grateful that there is a place for us to mourn this national tragedy. My experience with 9/11 is not personal, I was a 15 y/o girl living in Los Angeles when this occurred, but as a nation we certainly share this trauma. I shall never forget.
I was 12 years old when 9/11 occurred, in my second year of High School in the UK. Given the time difference, 5 hours between the United States and the UK, I didn't hear anything about what happened that terrible day until after I got home from school. The first person I saw after getting home was my Mum, who was white faced with shock. She told me that there was no nice way of saying it, but there had been deliberate plane crashes into very tall buildings in New York (she didn't mention the Pentagon at the time) and those buildings had completely collapsed in on themselves, possibly leaving thousands of people dead. When I watched the evening news, the images that became synonymous with that day got burned into my mind and haunted my nightmares for years to come. My school, I feel, handled the situation very sensitively. My Head of House, who had visited the World Trade Centre a month before the attack, presented a slide show of the spectacular pictures he took from the roof of the South Tower, showing both the neighbouring North Tower and the extended view of Lower Manhatten. He reassured us that the ghastly events of 9/11 (he called it September 11th at the time) shouldn't deter us from travelling to places, the terrorists should allow us to be too scared to travel on holiday or business, that if anyone needs reassurances, that they're more than welcome to speak to him. It was a rousing assembly
I was only 2 1/2 years old when this terrible event took place. However, even though I was only this age when 9/11 happened, this video absolutely made me want to cry. It made me want to cry tears of sadness for the people who had to see this event happen in New York, for the people who lost their lives on this day in such a terrible way, and for the families who had to lose those they loved for no reason at all. However, even though I am crying tears of sadness, I am also crying tears of comfort, knowing that thanks to the efforts of the families who lost someone on this terrible day and to so many wonderful people, 9/11 will never be forgotten. This museum is absolutely beautiful and while going in it can feel chilling and sad, it truly is remarkable that this museum will allow so many people, both in the present and in the future, to truly know the full story of what happened on 9/11. This means to understand how the events of 9/11 unfolded, who was responsible for this terrible act of violence, and how so many lives were changed forever. For those who walk into this museum today, tomorrow, and in the future, just know that you are not just walking into an ordinary museum, you are walking into a sacred place where the stories of 3,000 innocent people are being told and explored. RIP victims of 9/11. With this museum, you will never be forgotten and so will 9/11.
I shed a lot of tears watching this. I’ve never been to, or particularly wanted to go to New York City, but I want to go there now just to see this. Rest In Peace all those that lost their lives. You’re not forgotten. 😰😰😰
most of them were not 'bodies' when they were falling, they were still alive. I agree that this part of the story should be shown.Those people were victims too and they had to make an impossible choice - burn or choke to death, or jump to their death. It's unimaginable. They need their story to be told. Yeah it's hard to see, but you have to look and know about it. It's an injustice to their families to not include it. I was in NYC on that day. i was at my office in the village so was at a safe distance but we still saw the towers. Was stuck there all day. I got an email from a friend that day who also came out of the subway and saw people falling. He said he was close enough to see the looks on their faces as they fell. In the following days there were photos in the papers of it and many people were outraged. I understand the sensitivity around it, but you can't ignore that this was part of that day
This would be Awesome to see and pay your respect so sad but families can tell their stories. Of their love ones and see how many people has respect for their families This will be a must see museum God bless all the families of these people!!
I went to the 9/11 memorial and the most powerful thing isn't the stupid hole in the ground, it's a tree that stood in the twin tower courtyard that managed to survive the wreckage and come back to full life. It's not even man made and it's a better symbol of hope and rebirth than the giant, garish fountain that currently serves as the focus of the memorial.
Wow!, You need to really grow a heart. 3,000 of our people were killed by a group of 19 evil men who were here in our country, plotting, planning & executing their so called master plan of terrorism. I feel that the 2 "holes" in the ground are very honoring to all the passengers, crew members, and the countless amount of employees who were trapped in tower 1 & really didn't have much of a chance to survive. I have not had the chance to visit New York, I would love to go see the exhibitions. None of the people deserved to die or be given a choice of staying in the buildings, or jumping out of the buildings, taking a chance on if they live or will die. Our country was under attack for our lively hoods, our faith, values, our choices of what kind of work we want to do with our lives.
The closest that I've been to the Twins was through the framed artwork brought home by my father during one of his NYC trips. If ever I got the chance and finances to visit a place outside of Asia, I'd definitely include ground zero, this museum, and the memorial site of Flight 93 in Pennsylvania.
Omg....seeing the faces of the people.....the people. Not just a number of people that died we hear on the news. People's faces.... real people....that hits hard. Omg
I’m very torn about this museum, it’s one big tourist attraction, there’s a lot of backpack tourist to go down there and don’t take it very seriously. They take their selfie’s and have the kids run around. I didn’t see any signs to be respectful which they need.
Yea 24$ to visit a grave yard in a sense is a little ...ya know...some people were never recovered..and a family member of a loved one said i have to pay 24$ to visit my son :(
I feel the same way it dont make sense. The goverment should pay for that. Period!! Do you realize how much money that museum is going to bring in enough to pay for upkeep.. And much more.. The extra millions go to what???
The only thing that bugged me in the place is to see the brick from a terrorist's hide out. I couldn't stand that it was kept among all other valuable, precious memories.
Terrible tragedy! Amazing museum, silver lining they will be remembered throughout history when most of us will be forgotten about mearly an insect that almost never existed
If you weren’t born yet or were a bit younger than me believe me, it was horrific. Not just in NYC, your parents were coming to get you out of school cause we thought every major city was going to get hit. Worst day ever and I was lucky.
You 100% absolutely put those cowards pictures up. You show the world who did this. You don’t just toss it to the side. Accountability is so very vital.
Ground zero was built up from what it was so the plaza above ground is at street level but in 2001 it was below street level so where the museum is, it is really where the foundation of the towers stood.
I was in year 1 (grade 1) and I was at school at the time the first flight hit and I remember that when they both fall our school had a assembly that the trade centre was attacked and that we would have 2 minutes silence for all the innocent people who were killed and we live in England and we always had a minute silence on 9/11 to remember the lost ones of the families who were grieving and still are grieving for the lost ones and when I got to secondary school or high school I had a friend who's dad was apart of the firefighters who lost his life that day
I think i was 10 or 11 when this happened and in 6th grade we all did nothig but watch from a box tv in the classrooms its was horrible and ill never forget as now im older im learning more things anout why it happened and leading up to the attacks so much i didnt really know or understand at the time and thanks to these videos and documentaries im able to finally understand what went on that awful day and to think one of the plans was just above ohio 5 hours from where i lived at the time and then turned around 😢 its horrifying
Wish this was uploaded at a bit higher resolution--360p/VHS quality? Very powerful story, though. And it's true about kids increasingly needing to learn about the events, not just remembering them.
“I believe that you all believe that they are angels, they can finally be free, and stretch their wings, I believe that you all believe that there’s a heaven, where they can fly high in the morning sky, and when you die, you’ll see them again and then you can never say the word we humans hate to say when it means for good and that word is GOODBYE!”
In my opinion having pictures or videos of people falling from the towers is disgusting and disrespectful to the dead and to the families do you really think they would love to come in and see their love ones fall
It’s just four days after the 20th anniversary which is sad that I have to use that word combination of the horrible distraction in New York and Washington And Pennsylvania. I guess it’s time to take a deep breath and say thank you to God or Whom ever one believes in and just say we’re grateful he didn’t go any further and I respect to all of those that perished from the airplanes to the grounds below and those that came to rescue. You can’t buy love like that, you can, I don’t know. 20 years later it should be forgive but not forget. Not an eye for an eye but a time for thought and communication. May God bless all of those beautiful people that were lost and hopefully after 20 years we won’t forget it but it’s time to say we forgive. Sorry. I’m so sorry
9 11 is almost like a modern day pomei people will still be talking about it investigating it in 2 millenia and beyond, 2001 still feels like only yesterday to me but on the 20th anniversary is still as moving as it was when I watched it unfold as it happened. Pure evil never wins. All it did was make the victims live forever bring America together and stronger than ever. Will visit ground zero 1 day pay my respects
Anyone know where I can see all of the photos of each and every victim from 9/11, online? I have been tirelessly searching for a platform that might have all of the images. But, I have not been able to find everyone on one site. Please help.
That horrible country committed thousands of murders and need to be held accountable for unleashing their evil hatred on our innocent victims who didnt deserve to die this way!! God bless the victims and their loved ones! Continuing prayers, for this takes lifetimes for people to heal. ❤️✝️😢😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏…….
It is actually tastefully done for a change 😢 I watched a documentary that showed you how they clean those water foundations/waterfalls EVERYDAY to make sure the water doesnt go green and that the plaques with the names on stay sparking. The plaza high rise disaster in India that killed about 1500 workers in a sewing factory that collapsed has no memorial at all nust a pile of littsr and bits of rubbish there which i think is disgusting . Considering it was western clothing companies that they were working for . They also got an average of £800 pay out for each. Worker that died . There was also a day nursrey with babies in there some that were newborns to 5 years old that died .
They should not show the terrorists, especially there. Just like news doesn’t want to name school shooters. It just gives future terrorists a place to go to see their hero’s and be surrounded by their “work”.
2023: Step right up, get your tickets! Come see what Jealousy and Hate can do and does to each other. This isnt about planes, buildings, a freak act of nature, poor engineering. This is about the jealousy and Hate in the heart of mankind. All the planning and training that went into this event, For what? For what purpose did it prove? Their cause and reason is not even the topic. Along with their reasons and cause, all was lost and destroyed along with everything and everyone else on this horrific gorrific day. They proved nothing, Their cause went up in smoke, flames, and dustification along with everything else in those 2 hours. And now we have museums to show you what jealousy and hate, have done and do.....step right up. This is mankind going against its own self. Mankind going against itself. Mankind going against Nature.
I went to ground zero in 2003 the smell is something ill never forget it smelled like burnt meat and diesel fuel and all you could hear ws the roar of the machines working down there if you sit there long enough your mind will race and you relive what you seen that day on tv and try to imagine the spot your standing on is not a spot where a jumper fell to their death it was heartbreaking and then we seen a fence a 1/4 mile long with peoples pictures that were lost and flowers and t shirts and hats of the fallen youmleave there sad and very angry!!
I don't know... I am tired of museums. Maybe we need everyone who goes there to sign a pledge to live a better life in memory of those who died. Everyone knows what happened (and if you weren't alive there is tons of footage on you tube).
I don't get yas the towers were because they stood out and were tallest so instead making 2normal size buildings to remember you build something twice as high WHY
“Unborn child” that hit hard for me
Same.... That and seeing another video on here where a female first responder was helping with the cleanup saying that a father came up to her, both hands full of his son's bones, and tells her, "This is my son." She tears up, and says, "What do you say to that?" .... That hit my heart so hard too.

If there's one museum I'd like to see, it's this one. I want to pay my respects in person.
Exactly my thoughts.
I just went,Please experience it for yourself at least once in your life.
I was there on Saturday. You still feel the pain and energy all those people felt when you walk through those doors. I honestly felt so sad, they had so many things to show, information as well. You should go
Yes! Exactly! I feel the same.
If you’re in NY for the day or a weekend or whatever, do the museum last. It’s incredibly sad and will likely affect you for the rest of the day.

Kenneth Royer education is key Andy.. give it a try.
Pretty amazing that you remembered it even as a 4 year old. Glad you were able to fulfill your wish.

My uncle was murdered on 9/11/2001 & I always visit the memorial as if I was visiting my uncle in a cemetery.
What was his name?
Murdered is key word sorry about your uncle may he Rest In Peace
Finally made it to the museum to pay my respects. It was eerie, everyone whispered, in respect to those lost. Never forget 🇺🇸
I like to think that those who jumped from those broken windows didnt see that drop out the window but instead I like to think God showed them paradise and they just stepped into out and into paradise. No ugly fall, no pain, no fear just peace .

A beautiful vision.

So hard for every family there...even so sad for people just watching it...so many life's on one day ....i cried watching it on the news ...not being able to help feel so bad ...
I went on 9/11 the year it opened. I can attest, it is truly breathtaking and chilling. It was silent, everyone can feel the realness and there was respect and recognition of where we were. Not a single life lost was forgotten, there’s a digital wall with everyone’s face that you can select the person to hear their bio from family as talked about 9:30. So delicately and well planned out.

I went to the Museum in November, I get to go back next month
I can’t even begin to imagine the terror and agony of having to choose the method in which I am being murdered. Do I burn to death? Choke to death on the toxic smoke? Jump out the window 70-80 stories up? Just totally sad! RIP to all those poor, innocent souls that were trapped up there in those buildings. I can’t even begin to imagine how scared and helpless they had to have been feeling. Scared bc they didn’t exactly know what was happening. They were surrounded by smoke, intense heat, fire, and, I’m sure, a lot of injured people. And helpless bc they were stuck up there without any way to help themselves. Instead, having to wait for a rescue that would never happen. I hope that when those buildings came down, those trapped inside died quickly and didn’t feel any pain or suffering.
I’d go there to pay my respects and I’d burst into tears
I visited the museum last year. In 2022. I feel they did an amazing job capturing the moments, and honoring the victims perfectly. After 21 years, I feel like I finally got some closure. I did not lose anybody but I had a very hard time with it. The museum is beautifully done and The reflecting pools are absolutely incredible.
God that voicemail is heartbreaking
Listen to the Kevin Cosgrove one

This is the part of the museum where I heard a visitor sobbing so loudly and storming out of the room that I had to just quietly step out myself. Seeing the actual faces/voices broke my heart.
Very poor taste to say the least.
@@noklarok What's in poor taste?
I live in the UK and I would love to see this museum, to make the pilgrimage as it were, because this date in history had a profound effect on me and needs to be remembered. I was last in NYC in June 1996 as an overnight stopover at the start of a holiday. I arrived at my hotel feeling very tired and turned down an offer to go sight seeing that evening - a decision I have always regretted. Had I not, I may have been able to see the towers in all their majestic glory before they were so brutally taken from us. I hope that one day I will see this city, this place that lives in our hearts and minds, once again.
❤️
Man I remember that morning clear as day. I was in the 7th grade. Had just woken up to go to school
I was only 11 years old, and in 6th grade at the time of the attacks.
I visited the museum in 2019. I spent about 4 hours inside and it’s something I’ll always remember.
What struck me the most was that there’s 100 people who disliked this video… why?
not that deep
Think about it....
Other nations have enough of you!
They Al quaeda
Just to upset you lol
The power of the US was demonstrated in hours for the world. A horrific sacrifice
This is absolutely beautiful and I hope I get to visit this museum.
I wasn’t alive for 9/11 I was born a few years after and never lost anyone I loved but I still cry and feel so sad when learning about this tragedy for anyone who did loose someone or had to witness the whole ordeal I’m so sorry to you guys and I wish you the best in recovering from this...❤️
I was one when this happened. According to my parents, even that young I was glued to the TV. I remember every year at school here in CA having a moment of silence for the victims. Never forget them
❤️
I was 11 years old on my way to school. And watched the second plane crash into the building live on TV... I remember hearing witnesses to the first plane crash telling the reporters on TV how they at first thought it had been an accidental plane crash. But then realizing it was an deliberate terrorist attack once the second plane hit.
I will never forget watching people jump to their deaths live on television it was something I hope I never see again.
I was about your age when it happened, 12 years old. Our teacher rolled in the 'tv cart' several minutes before the second plane hit. My entire classroom watched it live, screaming. We saw many people fall. Too many. I don't feel like I was ever OK after that.
I'm from a small town in England and someone who died in the towers was born and raised in another small town very close to my town. There were people lost from all over the world, it's so sad how many were lost.
I was 17 on September 11 now I am 37 one day ill go and visit and pay my respects.
I haven’t been to NYC but when I do the 9/11 memorial is a must-see. I’m grateful that there is a place for us to mourn this national tragedy. My experience with 9/11 is not personal, I was a 15 y/o girl living in Los Angeles when this occurred, but as a nation we certainly share this trauma. I shall never forget.
I was 12 years old when 9/11 occurred, in my second year of High School in the UK. Given the time difference, 5 hours between the United States and the UK, I didn't hear anything about what happened that terrible day until after I got home from school. The first person I saw after getting home was my Mum, who was white faced with shock.
She told me that there was no nice way of saying it, but there had been deliberate plane crashes into very tall buildings in New York (she didn't mention the Pentagon at the time) and those buildings had completely collapsed in on themselves, possibly leaving thousands of people dead. When I watched the evening news, the images that became synonymous with that day got burned into my mind and haunted my nightmares for years to come.
My school, I feel, handled the situation very sensitively. My Head of House, who had visited the World Trade Centre a month before the attack, presented a slide show of the spectacular pictures he took from the roof of the South Tower, showing both the neighbouring North Tower and the extended view of Lower Manhatten. He reassured us that the ghastly events of 9/11 (he called it September 11th at the time) shouldn't deter us from travelling to places, the terrorists should allow us to be too scared to travel on holiday or business, that if anyone needs reassurances, that they're more than welcome to speak to him. It was a rousing assembly
I was only 2 1/2 years old when this terrible event took place. However, even though I was only this age when 9/11 happened, this video absolutely made me want to cry. It made me want to cry tears of sadness for the people who had to see this event happen in New York, for the people who lost their lives on this day in such a terrible way, and for the families who had to lose those they loved for no reason at all. However, even though I am crying tears of sadness, I am also crying tears of comfort, knowing that thanks to the efforts of the families who lost someone on this terrible day and to so many wonderful people, 9/11 will never be forgotten. This museum is absolutely beautiful and while going in it can feel chilling and sad, it truly is remarkable that this museum will allow so many people, both in the present and in the future, to truly know the full story of what happened on 9/11. This means to understand how the events of 9/11 unfolded, who was responsible for this terrible act of violence, and how so many lives were changed forever. For those who walk into this museum today, tomorrow, and in the future, just know that you are not just walking into an ordinary museum, you are walking into a sacred place where the stories of 3,000 innocent people are being told and explored. RIP victims of 9/11. With this museum, you will never be forgotten and so will 9/11.
Thank you for telling the story. I will never ever forget
just to be there and feel what happened there..........so much to take in.
The audio has me in tears ………. Beautiful curation
I shed a lot of tears watching this. I’ve never been to, or particularly wanted to go to New York City, but I want to go there now just to see this. Rest In Peace all those that lost their lives. You’re not forgotten. 😰😰😰
most of them were not 'bodies' when they were falling, they were still alive. I agree that this part of the story should be shown.Those people were victims too and they had to make an impossible choice - burn or choke to death, or jump to their death. It's unimaginable. They need their story to be told. Yeah it's hard to see, but you have to look and know about it. It's an injustice to their families to not include it. I was in NYC on that day. i was at my office in the village so was at a safe distance but we still saw the towers. Was stuck there all day. I got an email from a friend that day who also came out of the subway and saw people falling. He said he was close enough to see the looks on their faces as they fell. In the following days there were photos in the papers of it and many people were outraged. I understand the sensitivity around it, but you can't ignore that this was part of that day
This would be Awesome to see and pay your respect so sad but families can tell their stories. Of their love ones and see how many people has respect for their families This will be a must see museum God bless all the families of these people!!
I went to the 9/11 memorial and the most powerful thing isn't the stupid hole in the ground, it's a tree that stood in the twin tower courtyard that managed to survive the wreckage and come back to full life. It's not even man made and it's a better symbol of hope and rebirth than the giant, garish fountain that currently serves as the focus of the memorial.
tikifreakazoid stupid hole in the ground? Bro be respectful please
Stupid ? People died there. You're so stupid.
Wow!, You need to really grow a heart. 3,000 of our people were killed by a group of 19 evil men who were here in our country, plotting, planning & executing their so called master plan of terrorism. I feel that the 2 "holes" in the ground are very honoring to all the passengers, crew members, and the countless amount of employees who were trapped in tower 1 & really didn't have much of a chance to survive. I have not had the chance to visit New York, I would love to go see the exhibitions. None of the people deserved to die or be given a choice of staying in the buildings, or jumping out of the buildings, taking a chance on if they live or will die. Our country was under attack for our lively hoods, our faith, values, our choices of what kind of work we want to do with our lives.
The closest that I've been to the Twins was through the framed artwork brought home by my father during one of his NYC trips. If ever I got the chance and finances to visit a place outside of Asia, I'd definitely include ground zero, this museum, and the memorial site of Flight 93 in Pennsylvania.
God Bless everyone who was impacted by this horrific act on American soil..😇🙏🏻😇🙏🏻
Omg....seeing the faces of the people.....the people. Not just a number of people that died we hear on the news.
People's faces.... real people....that hits hard. Omg
Beautiful and graceful way to honor the victims
9/11 changed all of us that day
As planned
I’m very torn about this museum, it’s one big tourist attraction, there’s a lot of backpack tourist to go down there and don’t take it very seriously. They take their selfie’s and have the kids run around. I didn’t see any signs to be respectful which they need.
It’s interesting how different people cope with and conceptualize of tragedies
Heartbreaking!!!
It's September 2021. How disappointing it is to see us now. So divided
Iam a new yorker living in miami i went back in2015 .very moving. I feel the city of ny shouldnt be Charging to see the museum
They charge for the up keep . Otherwise the museum will fall into disrepair.
Yea 24$ to visit a grave yard in a sense is a little ...ya know...some people were never recovered..and a family member of a loved one said i have to pay 24$ to visit my son :(
Tara Dactule family members of victims don’t have to pay for the museum
@@jenhall4085 that's good because that would be so messed up.. I wonder why the dad said that then..and I wonder if they ask for proof you're related.
I feel the same way it dont make sense. The goverment should pay for that. Period!! Do you realize how much money that museum is going to bring in enough to pay for upkeep.. And much more.. The extra millions go to what???
I did not realize that small children died on 9/11. Was there a day care near the WTC? Or just bystanders who were unable to escape fast enough?
Julia Mihajlovich I would assume a majority of child deaths came from the hijacked planes. Such an atrocious crime against humanity.
they were on the hijacked planes, specifically on flights 77 and 175 that crashed into the pentagon and the south tower
Julia Mihajlovich there were children on the flights.
Children on the flight also a lot of pregnant woman
Yes, and so many children that grew up without parents - thoroughly decent people that would have been fantastic moms and dads.
God bless America
The only thing that bugged me in the place is to see the brick from a terrorist's hide out. I couldn't stand that it was kept among all other valuable, precious memories.
I guess we all know where we were that day . Such a tragic memory .
Terrible tragedy! Amazing museum, silver lining they will be remembered throughout history when most of us will be forgotten about mearly an insect that almost never existed
I went there last year !! Highly recommend it
I would love to. Visit. The museum. God. Bless. All the. People xx
Those voicemails get to me
we will keep remembering the 9/11
hopefully we want to go to the museum
if we visit new york then maybe we can have chance to go there
If you weren’t born yet or were a bit younger than me believe me, it was horrific. Not just in NYC, your parents were coming to get you out of school cause we thought every major city was going to get hit. Worst day ever and I was lucky.
Those who jumped.,.....they dent have a choice...there choice was made for them... between 8:30/9:30 in the morning... great video 👍👍
You 100% absolutely put those cowards pictures up. You show the world who did this. You don’t just toss it to the side. Accountability is so very vital.
They need to have a memorial for the hijackers. I'm thinking their names engraved in the bathroom urinals would be a perfect place.
I like where youre going. But I think they are more deserving of feces.
@@StuUngar I can't say I wouldn't support that as well
Compassion is the highest form of intelligence...
Anya Vlad Please tell me you’re kidding.....are you next going to tell us to have compassion for Ted Bundy and John Gacy?
@@ericschultz4004 Dunno if that's compassion - more likely just an edgy attempt at attention.
So sad. I would love to visit but I don't even know if I could; just watching this makes me feel so scared and depressed
Well done.
Ground zero was built up from what it was so the plaza above ground is at street level but in 2001 it was below street level so where the museum is, it is really where the foundation of the towers stood.
God such a tragedy how many people lost their lives. I think the museum is a good way to remember everyone.
Rest in Peace
I was in year 1 (grade 1) and I was at school at the time the first flight hit and I remember that when they both fall our school had a assembly that the trade centre was attacked and that we would have 2 minutes silence for all the innocent people who were killed and we live in England and we always had a minute silence on 9/11 to remember the lost ones of the families who were grieving and still are grieving for the lost ones and when I got to secondary school or high school I had a friend who's dad was apart of the firefighters who lost his life that day
I think i was 10 or 11 when this happened and in 6th grade we all did nothig but watch from a box tv in the classrooms its was horrible and ill never forget as now im older im learning more things anout why it happened and leading up to the attacks so much i didnt really know or understand at the time and thanks to these videos and documentaries im able to finally understand what went on that awful day and to think one of the plans was just above ohio 5 hours from where i lived at the time and then turned around 😢 its horrifying
Wish this was uploaded at a bit higher resolution--360p/VHS quality?
Very powerful story, though. And it's true about kids increasingly needing to learn about the events, not just remembering them.
What did you miss in this video that a higher resolution would have given you?
“I believe that you all believe that they are angels, they can finally be free, and stretch their wings, I believe that you all believe that there’s a heaven, where they can fly high in the morning sky, and when you die, you’ll see them again and then you can never say the word we humans hate to say when it means for good and that word is GOODBYE!”
This is so sad
In my opinion having pictures or videos of people falling from the towers is disgusting and disrespectful to the dead and to the families do you really think they would love to come in and see their love ones fall
It’s just four days after the 20th anniversary which is sad that I have to use that word combination of the horrible distraction in New York and Washington And Pennsylvania. I guess it’s time to take a deep breath and say thank you to God or Whom ever one believes in and just say we’re grateful he didn’t go any further and I respect to all of those that perished from the airplanes to the grounds below and those that came to rescue. You can’t buy love like that, you can, I don’t know. 20 years later it should be forgive but not forget. Not an eye for an eye but a time for thought and communication. May God bless all of those beautiful people that were lost and hopefully after 20 years we won’t forget it but it’s time to say we forgive. Sorry. I’m so sorry
Crying watching this... RIP all those poor people.. Never ever forget. Xx
Huhu this is so sad and still you can hear all those people last voice.
9 11 is almost like a modern day pomei people will still be talking about it investigating it in 2 millenia and beyond, 2001 still feels like only yesterday to me but on the 20th anniversary is still as moving as it was when I watched it unfold as it happened. Pure evil never wins. All it did was make the victims live forever bring America together and stronger than ever. Will visit ground zero 1 day pay my respects
I don’t even want to go to that museum, I’m so traumatized by the event
Nothing will ever take anyway of the pain of watching the second plane ✈️ hit the tower on national television
Anyone know where I can see all of the photos of each and every victim from 9/11, online? I have been tirelessly searching for a platform that might have all of the images. But, I have not been able to find everyone on one site. Please help.
We're the animals included!
That horrible country committed thousands of murders and need to be held accountable for unleashing their evil hatred on our innocent victims who didnt deserve to die this way!! God bless the victims and their loved ones! Continuing prayers, for this takes lifetimes for people to heal. ❤️✝️😢😭🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏…….
Never forget!
Some Americans would hold hands and jump to get out of the fire.That tells you a lot!
It is actually tastefully done for a change 😢
I watched a documentary that showed you how they clean those water foundations/waterfalls EVERYDAY to make sure the water doesnt go green and that the plaques with the names on stay sparking.
The plaza high rise disaster in India that killed about 1500 workers in a sewing factory that collapsed has no memorial at all nust a pile of littsr and bits of rubbish there which i think is disgusting .
Considering it was western clothing companies that they were working for .
They also got an average of £800 pay out for each. Worker that died .
There was also a day nursrey with babies in there some that were newborns to 5 years old that died .
It's my understanding, the plane and the passengers disintegrated. Nothing to recover.
12:32 who's that please tell me?? he looks familiar
They should not show the terrorists, especially there. Just like news doesn’t want to name school shooters. It just gives future terrorists a place to go to see their hero’s and be surrounded by their “work”.
2023: Step right up, get your tickets! Come see what Jealousy and Hate can do and does to each other. This isnt about planes, buildings, a freak act of nature, poor engineering. This is about the jealousy and Hate in the heart of mankind. All the planning and training that went into this event, For what? For what purpose did it prove? Their cause and reason is not even the topic. Along with their reasons and cause, all was lost and destroyed along with everything and everyone else on this horrific gorrific day. They proved nothing, Their cause went up in smoke, flames, and dustification along with everything else in those 2 hours. And now we have museums to show you what jealousy and hate, have done and do.....step right up. This is mankind going against its own self. Mankind going against itself. Mankind going against Nature.
How will the disabled experience the impacts she envisions. They deserve full immersion into the museum too.
There is a elevator
I was driving to wk (in Dallas) and heard it on the radio...
Never forget
I went to ground zero in 2003 the smell is something ill never forget it smelled like burnt meat and diesel fuel and all you could hear ws the roar of the machines working down there if you sit there long enough your mind will race and you relive what you seen that day on tv and try to imagine the spot your standing on is not a spot where a jumper fell to their death it was heartbreaking and then we seen a fence a 1/4 mile long with peoples pictures that were lost and flowers and t shirts and hats of the fallen youmleave there sad and very angry!!
I don't know... I am tired of museums. Maybe we need everyone who goes there to sign a pledge to live a better life in memory of those who died. Everyone knows what happened (and if you weren't alive there is tons of footage on you tube).
Salam silaturrahim to muslim... RIP for those non muslim😢
Talking on a cell phone??
A day I wish never happened.
I don't get yas the towers were because they stood out and were tallest so instead making 2normal size buildings to remember you build something twice as high WHY
