The top of this demolished building, using the French method where no explosives are used, falls completely off. But on WTC2 (the South Tower) the top starts to fall off, but then the rug is pulled out from under its feet and the top descends without falling completely off. kzread.info/dash/bejne/k4iKuqpylK3QmLg.html kzread.info/dash/bejne/qYaa0sp8fNe7haw.html

@@davidmudry5622that building was on fire all day, it was going fall down no matter what anyone did. It’s a cowardly act to post links to conspiracy videos like you did. It’s also an insult to all those who lost their lives in the planes, in the buildings, on the ground and from health issues since. Put the bong or glass pipe away and steel help.

It’s really important to not forget about this day. It’s crazy it’s been 22 years already and theirs a generation of people that don’t know what it was like. I make sure I tell my kids about the importance of 9/11.

Hey James. You're so right on all points. First, the 22 years that've somehow nearly passed. Second, the importance of ensuring future generations know about it. It's so crazy as you say that there are now whole generations who don't really know or feel anything about it. We must be getting old, which is a privilege I guess!! Hope you and yours are well 👍

@@Jerseybytes2- it’s a very weird thing. When i think of the event that unfolded, it feels like yesterday. But then, when I think of myself as i was in 2001 (a 19 year old Londoner), I feel like I’m a completely different person now and that’s when I’m struck by how long ago it actually was.

Desiree visibly teared up several times, especially when talking about Jim not making it out of the building. I can see her trying her best to hold it together for the students. Bless her!

My stomach is in a knot after hearing how close was Desirees escape. Thank you for coming on and telling us; it can't have been easy.

Hi sisters , Thankyou for sharing your stories, of courage . Love your fellow sisters. From Australia.

All buildings taller than 40 stories should be required to have parachutes in them and be replaced every 6months to make sure they are good to go. Obviously it's dangerous to try to jump from that height but anything would be betterthan watching people fall to their death. Imagine hoow beautiful it would have been to see those people falling to safety with parachutes instead of what happened

Even better there should be a 100 foot high soft sponge blown out around the perimeter of the building (like a bouncy castle) that opens up in seconds….900/1000 foot long and 100 foot tall. Parachutes wouldn’t work you have to be at least sky level, thats why there designed for planes not for buildings, there’s a possibility they wouldn’t open up in time or they just wouldn’t open up because of the surrounding buildings stopping it for opening up, too risky.

Every single one of you is SO BRAVE. Not just for your choices on that day. But for being willing to share possibly one of, if not the, most traumatic experiences a person could ever go through. God bless each and every one of you. And thank you for sharing your perspective on one of the most critical moments in all of American history. We will NEVER FOGET. And we will ALWAYS BE *LISTENING.* So please continue to share when you are able. It's good for you, and it's good for all of us.

That was over two decades ago and it is still so so scary, horrific and heart breaking! I am in awe of these people who managed to escaped. It took so much courage! And I still weep for all the people who lost their lives in those towers, the workers and rescuers. Thank you for your stories. They must be told and shared, least we forget. So glad this Museum was created. I will be re watching it.

I have massive love and respect for these ladies. Thank you for sharing your stories in such a powerful way. God bless.

What a great account of this tragedy. very cerebral and factual . Best I have seen. Thank you. Much love to you brave lady. Love from scotland. I hope you are well X

From what I understand the port authority didn't have to comply with the local building code so instead of 6 they only had 3 that weren't even that wide to begin with. I am wondering if the new building has 6 and if they are wider.

God bless you all

Jeanette I get it although I was in Illinois when 9/11 happened I have PTSD from airplanes I hear them flying to low n start having reactions..so this horrific day for so many others did affect the whole country.🙏💯🙏💯🙏♥️🙏💙🙏♥️🙏💙

The lady from the south tower basically said “If you liked to slide into your seat at the last minute, you probably didn’t get into the building, and thus lived”. Nice dig on lazy people who lived.

Ha. Yeah I’m never arriving on time again.

I understand what first lady means by a "small boom." I was in BMCC that morning, 5 blocks north on Chambers st. The first plane crashing we heard but didn't know what it was, we all assumed it was a really bad accident on the west side highway. The second plane hitting sounded like a small boom, a mini version of the first crash we thought was a car crash. Some of us giggled cause it sounded comically small compared to the first. So when I finally thought about it later on I figured the sound was masked by the fact that the south tower had been hit on the south face while the north tower was hit on the north face, so that one, since we were north of the towers, was way louder to us. She has confirmed this for me since she had the same thing happen to her cause for her it was reversed. She heard a small boom from the North tower because the buildings masked the volume.

I have never heard anyone else say (8:37) that building security wouldn't let anyone in after 8.45 as most started at 9. Is this true? If so, what would be the point ? How could people conduct business properly if security clock-watched like that? Also, why hasn't anyone else mentioned it if it saved them?

@lankanainen

My interpretation of her comment is that on that particular day when the plane hit the first building, that’s when security stopped letting people through. I don’t think she meant that security closed every day at 0845.

For the first lady survivor, was she reading from a template or a slide? I listened to her story with the lady, Judith, and the ordering of her words in both stories are almost verbatim. Listen to both stories! She must have been looking at something while telling her story.

She must have told her story more than a thousand times. She probably always tell it the same way. She knows it by heart. Plus, she sounds like she wants to be detached from the horror she witnessed.

In all honesty, your sister probably went towards the danger because that is where you were, and she loved you enough to walk into danger to find you.

Sorry but how is the second woman a surviver when she wasn't even in the building...

This lady wasn’t even in the towers and she says she was a survivor lol.

Thank you, what a privilege to hear your stories. Same day over and over indeed.
