You know, even all these years later, I still can't forget that day. I didn't vote for Bush Jr. but I respected what he said that Americans "should come together and comfort the families of the attack." Too bad, that accord didn't last long. Partisan politics blocked funding for critical healthcare for those who worked so hard at Ground Zero to try and clear rubble and find victims. For their sacrifice, they received cancers of various kinds, PTSD, respiratory diseases, and so much more. We, as a country, swore to "Never Forget", but when the initial funds ran out, the brave and suffering people had to fight for every penny to pay for their health care. So much for never forgetting. Some of the victims families did not receive help. So much for honoring them. All I can say is that the lack of empathy and compassion for these people is only outweighed by our treatment of veterans. As a country, we should be ashamed of ourselves.
I worked as a nanny for a family in London. The mom was Canadian and so the family were going to go to Canada for Christmas 1988 but the little boy caught tonsillitis so they cancelled the flight! They were booked on Pan Am flight 103 which blew up over Lockerbie in Scotland!
Michael Jackson Elizabeth Taylor and Marlon Brando rented a car and drove back to LA. Could you imagine being in that car or passing them on the highway? Rest in peace everyone. We will never forget
According to People magazine this urban myth is not true. Elizabeth Taylor stayed in New York in the aftermath of the attack, she saw the Twin Towers being engulfed with fire from her hotel room. There was no road trip.
A group of my friends were in NY for the All My Children Fan Club Luncheon. On 9/10, my friend messaged me that they were going to the top of the WTC. On 9/11, I emailed my friend and begged her to tell me she was okay. They were just about to leave when the news broke. My uncle also survived 9/11. He was on top of the Burlington Coat Factory. He was almost hit by a flying torso that he believed came off Flight 175. He was “missing” for 3 days. My aunt started to plan his memorial service. He was volunteering at Ground Zero.
@GOLDEN_REAPER556 his mother flew home after the show and being 3 hours after new York they stayed up talking about the show and everything and that caused him to oversleep.
Could you imagine if MJ had gone to that meeting? I feel like him dying on 9/11 would’ve taken it to a whole other level. He unfortunately would’ve probably overshadowed all of the other deaths in headlines. Would’ve been crazy. RIP to all the victims who did lose their life tho🥺
Also fun fact Forrest Gump 2 was going to be made but after 9/11 they scrapped it bc it was set in the 90s and had the OKC Bombing,The Waco situation and Ruby Ridge also the Atlanta Olympics Bombing. The writers said it would be to sensitive to go thru with it.
Also, because I'm a Backstreet Boys fan, the now wife of a Backstreet Boy cancelled her flight, she was supposed to fly on flight 11. "The effects of the tragedy that struck the nation on Tuesday, September 11, 2001, are far reaching. Not only has the heart of every American been touched, but also the BACKSTREET BOYS themselves have been touched personally by this. The BOYS themselves are fine in Toronto. NICK, HOWIE and AJ were already in Toronto when this happened, and KEVIN and BRIAN were held up at the US/CANADIAN border for a while until they were cleared to enter CANADA. LEIGHANNE LITTRELL was scheduled to fly from Boston to LA on American Airlines Flight 11, but she cancelled her appointment and was thus spared the fate of those on that flight. But lift operator for the Black and Blue tour, Daniel Lee was not so fortunate. He was on his way home to LA to be with his pregnant wife. His wife, Kellie, did give birth to their first child, a girl named Allison Danielle, on September 13, 2001. He is but one of the possible thousands of victims of this devastating event. Our thoughts and prayers are with his family as well as all those families who have lost loved ones or whose loved ones are still missing."
2 days prior I got a flight from Toronto to Chicago and then straight to Brussels. It was almost killed me had the canceled the flight and waiting for 2 days in a flight that almostflew to New York. So thank God I am alive today, I almost lost my life before school even started.
Mine wasn't quite that close, but close enough to keep me from flying for 3 months. I was a Flight Attendant for American. I was packing my bags to fly to New York later that morning. I watched the 2nd plane hit the tower. No accident, no medical emergency, no emergency landing ever really got to me. It was my job. But after 9/11, I didn't leave my house for a week. I knew or was familiar with every crew member on both American planes. Heroes to me, in addition to all of the heroes who lost their lives that day. I went to a laundromat a month after this. 2 people there- myself and a local firefighter. It was the 1st time I've ever broken down and cried with a complete stranger.
I think our death is determined from the moment we’re born . Our time is up when it’s up , so these famous people say they were lucky , no it just wasn’t your time !
Not celebrity at the time but Gerard Way of MCR (My chemical romance) was supposed to go meet Cartoon Network to bring them new ideas for tv shows. When he saw the planes hit the tower he instantly knew he wanted to start a band.
I think another was Jackie Chan. I'd heard he was originally slated to be in one of the Towers that day in order to film a scene for one of his movies, but the shoot was cancelled/ postponed VERY shortly before the Towers were hit.
It is one thing to be at the World Trade Center early on that Tuesday morning, then leave, like Australian gold medal Olympian Ian Thorpe did. Or, be scheduled to be in the complex later that day. But, it is another matter altogether to be present at the WTC site when the plane crashed into the North Tower at 8:46am.
There was also more detail to the story about Seth Macfarlane missing the flight. Before he traveled he booked his flight through a travel agency. The agency gave him the wrong departure time on his itinerary. The itinerary said the depart time was 8:15 but it was actually 7:45. So it was alcohol and the travel agency.
Many people dont know this, but mark whalberg blinded someone when he was a teenager and did many more awful things. He is a disgusting human being, as you can also tell by that statement he made.
We're talking about celebrities here, celebrities now, back in the 2000's people like who are huge celebrities now we're very very very busy and very energetic, so I don't blame there oversleeping or hangovers or problems that got them saved, the 2000's is the definition of socializing and overworking, i find no suspicion, especially with MJ, I know Michael was overworked and overtired which saved his life
I don’t care about the celebrity’s and forget them because the people who died are the ones worth praising more than the celebrities and their life is more was important because they lost their lives. Celebrities need to stop trying but thier names in something that were non famous people was in.
Another person that was on the Michael Jackson show was an 11-year-old Billy Gilman who was supposed to leave on the flight that ended up hitting the twin towers
Also Girard Way was supposed to pitch a show to Cartoon Network in one of the towers but was late and couldn’t go, after he heard about the attacks, he formed My Chemical Romance
The observation deck didn’t open till 9:30 AM, so Thorpe’s story doesn’t add up. It was also impossible to realize your plane hit the building right away like MacFarlane claims, because it took hours before it was reported what planes were involved.
If he’s Australian and not familiar with NYC, the WTC, of the observation deck in general, he likely didn’t know. He probably found out it wouldn’t open until 9:30 that morning. Also, it’s not unusually, at least for me, if on a trip or even if i just have time to spare, to just kind of hang around some place until I’m ready to make my next move. I could see myself, grabbing some coffee, and sitting and waiting for the deck to open someplace in the building. Possibly on the floor of the observation deck if there was a waiting area.
@@Aname87 I also think we're forgetting that back in 01 cellphones were for calls, and it wasn't as easy as it is now to find out what time the deck opened at. one of the easiest ways, specially if you were already in the area was to stop by and check, and if it's near open just sit by the fountain and wait.
