    This man traded his life with 12-13 other people , what a LEGEND, the definition of courage, 99% of people (including me) would have just run to safety , he didnt. He is not dead he is Immortal

    Why can we not name schools after people like Welles Crowther. Colleges, universities trade schools. People will learn and their legacy of bravery real bravery will live on. It touched me to see so many comments from young people saying they learned of Welles in their school. God bless him, the student and all the victims. They all went to heaven that day.

    They have a really cool exhibit at the 9/11 museum talking about this and they have a red bandana on display. It has been a story that has tocued my heart for years.

    One of my high school teachers was his roomate at BC. He tells his story every year on 9/11 and shows us this video. He is a hero and will always be remembered as one

    Saw this in school and what this man did was amazing. Wish I had the courage and confidence that he did to completely risk his life for his country when he could’ve lived easily. The sad thing is sometimes it takes events like these to unite America. Respect for my guy.

    I hope he didn’t feel anything. I hope he didn’t feel much pain. He didn’t deserve this. Rest easy Welles. You saved so many lives.
