@@cyberquasar2267 you can kind of hear it around the 1:35 mark. It's that high pitched whistling sound. What that is, is a locator device that all firefighters wear. It's motion detected. If the firefighter is still for two minutes, it gives a warning chirp, like "hey you better let us know your alive." And the firefighter will move, if he's just fine, and the alarm won't go off again. After three minutes of no movement, it starts blaring, to let others know where this fallen firefighter is at. There were so many on 9-11 that you can hear it in all the footage from ground zero after the collapse. The battery, I think lasts for 72 hours in a normal setting. So essentially that whistling eventually just faded away into nothing, as the batteries died, leaving a profound silence.

Bro, this along with other videos, this hurts so much to watch. I was a freshman in college and we were naively afraid to go to our dorms 15 floors high as we were scared enough to think they’d hit something that small and inconsequential, but were still frightened as we watched, huddled around a tv in the common area of Virginia Commonwealth University as this unfolded. I watched news coverage (on 6 stations back then (max)) for days because i felt I needed to absorb it. I understood what my parents felt when Kennedy was assassinated and when Pearl Harbor happened before them. Now I watch these videos multiple times a year unfortunately, because forget not forgetting, it’s burned into my head and one of the most traumatizing days of my life as an American, let alone as a NY transplant. It’s crazy... I think and dream about the men and women who died here at least once a month. Sometimes I wonder if I hate or praise god or whoever let the internet and social media become what is today instead of sooner, because I’m not sure if this should be able to haunt later generations, but people must bear witness. R.I.P. to you courageous men and women who represented NY and America in every facet of life:

I'm way more shocked and saddened by this now than I was at the time. It was all that they talked about on TV, but I didn't watch it. All I knew was that two planes crashed into the buildings and many people died. Just cold, shallow facts. Then the conspiracy theories showed up, Afghanistan war, Iraq war, terrorist attacks everywhere, thousands of people being killed everywhere, propaganda, nationalism. The 9/11 events felt almost like a myth. I began seeing the events with a completely different perspective after hearing the calls, seeing the footage from inside the towers, reading about the victims, their families, the perpetrators, the hijacking of the planes etc. Now it feels like I was there, stuck in the floors above the point of impact. Or that I had a loved one in that position.

I can't remember anything about that day apart from reading the newspapers from the newsagents opposite my Secondary school, which finished at 3:20pm UK time, just 20 minutes after the first tower had collapsed, the newspapers had already been printed and distributed. Talking of rolling in the TV on wheels, I remember at Primary School we couldn't watch whatever we were supposed to be watching one day, as apparently someone had walked in the school, got the TV and video player which was at the end of the 2nd floor (3rd floor if you're American) if I remember correctly, and walked back out again without anyone noticing, even though you have to sign in at the reception at the top of the outside stairs on the 1st floor. I'd guess he signed in with a fake name pretending to be a parent of a kid, and walked out of the fire exit at the bottom of the 2nd set of stairs, as it doesn't make sense how he got away with it otherwise.

I was 9 years old when this happened. The teachers had us go to the school library to watch what was happening on the TV then we were sent home early from school. I came home and watched the news until I got sleepy and then woke up around 2:00 the next morning and they were still broadcasting the rescue and recovery effort. I hope I never experience something like this ever again.

[@Rockzzzv]

I am from India i was their with my uncle nearby everyone heard an explosion no one understood what happened until all heard screams and the chunks from building were falling down on street then all started running. Everyone was screaming. Some came under the chunk and were stuck and it was all chaos. Screams, confusion amd chaos everywhere i saw bravery of local police and firefighters. And in a few minutes dust was everywhere. After that it's was an environment of chaos for immigrants especially Muslims and many people even considered me Muslim(not against Islam or any religion) and blamed me for that but I understand. Then there were protests and chaos for many days. My uncle told me not to get out of house. Few days laater we were called from a nearby police station and we went there and there were all the immigrants from other countries. And they were asking why are you here and whats the purpose of your visit and what have you done in past days and all that. Even my neighbours used to see me like i am a terrorist and all as people didn't knew what hindu is and all that and also coz I look like middle eastern. I remember all of it and it was crazy and very bad for families of victims and i remember that few children also died.

[@twilightsdaughter8634]

My friend Jessie lived by the towers when they were hit. He said the ground shook and windows blew out of buildings for miles around. When the buildings fell people were thrown feet through the air. Blood stains on the ground that had once been people. His brother ended up committing suicide when a jumper blew up on the ground in front of him and Jessie was never the same. I tried keeping in touch with him to help him through it until he too committed suicide. I remember this like yesterday and still cannot watch these videos without crying. I live in ohio next to new york. Later found out one of the planes coming back flew over ohio. Worst thing i have ever seen in my 46 years of life. I remember everything i did that day.

[@apseudonym]

[@EdsterIII]

These videos are so chilling and terrifying. Knowing that at that precise moment so many innocent people were killed. There are probably more heroes that were not aware of. People who helped inside but never got out themselves, but saved lives while doing so. I can't imagine what the family members of the people who worked there were going through. The helpless feelings, the pain, and the anger knowing they couldn't help, or even comfort them. There are so many emotions that I've felt while watching these videos. From deep sadness, anger, rage of how so many people can take lives without remorse. Sorrow for the families, friends, and others who knew those people. Fear, knowing the fear they had, knowing they may never see their families again, their kids, wives, brothers, sisters, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends, neighbors, and other people in their lives. Terror, sadness, pain, and helplessness watching as people chose to jump from above the impact zone to avoid the fires and smoke. Then utter disbelief as the buildings fell, and knowing everyone inside was probably gone. This tragic and sickening attack was cowardly, pathetic, and an act of war. Killing over 3,000 innocent people in such a horrific way, while the one who orchestrated it hid in caves while he declared victory? That ANGERED me and it kept angering me for some time after. These terroristic attacks were aimed at issues that NONE of those people had anything to do with. In war they call it "collateral damage"? I call it cowardice bulls**t! All the conspiracy theories about this are also frustrating. In the end, innocent people had to suffer and die because of cowardly acts of terrorism. Families had to watch their loved ones perish in horrific fashions and ways. As far as conspiracy theories go, I will say this. Had the FBI, the CIA, the DOD, and ANY OTHER agency that knew or HAD INFORMATION about a potential attack or something like that, HAD THEY SHARED INFORMATION ABOUT IT WITH ONE ANOTHER instead of wanting to be THE ONE'S who stopped it, maybe, JUST MAYBE they could have been able to somehow stop it BEFORE it happened? Again I'm not saying that the conspiracy theories are real! All I meant was our government agencies didn't want to share their thoughts and information, and I'm sure nobody would have cared WHO GOT CREDIT for stopping it, had that hhappened. It's sad how wanting the glory and credit can make your become a moron.

pretty random dad to say this but. My neighbor worked in one of the towers (must have been the south) he came to work that day thinking it would be a normal work day. It would have been the total opposite. After the plane hit the north tower everyone was in panic in the south he explained. Many people were told to stay in the towers, at first a lot of people thought it was an accident, but it wasn’t. Fortunately, he was able to push through the hordes of terrified employees and got out, and at that moment he ran. At that point he looked back and saw the next plane rock the south tower, and he immediately drove out of there. He was able to escape. I was told to never talk about this horrific event around him. For it was very traumatic and depressing because he lost his close friends. This year in school I had to do a raffled curriculum project when I picked it was 9/11. I didn’t want to read all of these articles about this, so stupidly I asked him. He was very open about his experience with it. I learned much more info from him. It was very courageous and strong to talk about something so trauma inducing. My father was also very sad about this because most of the clients he used to work with him in the towers died. He described the towers as amazing. It was an amazing view and it was packed with kind employees every day.
