      17yo senior here too in 2001. Second period english class. Knew a plane crashed into one tower at the start of class per our teacher but then heard about the second via a PA announcement halfway through the class from the principal who so eloquently stated "Students, America is under attack" to start his message. Spent most of the rest of the day just watching news coverage on TV in classrooms with limited TVs or the auditorium. Somehow 6th period spanish teacher did a regular lesson and pretended nothing was wrong but she might have been the only one in the school who did so.

      Yeah. I was 21 and just started my career / my first job. I was in a sale room and a customer said "In the USA a large plane has just flown into the World Trade Center!"
      My first thoughts was "oh no, wat a stupid pilot" and my second "oh no... all the people!! I hope there aren't too many victims"
      Than - after a while (we started TV and radio) we saw the second impact. . .. and a cold shiver came over me. I knew - The USA was under attack and I somehow felt that the world - as I knew it - was going to change.

My mom changed the channel over and over until she found another kid show. My mom explained to me the situation the next day before school ending with "Some kids know gifts are bought by their parents for Christmas, some kids don't. Do not talk about this to your classmates unless they talk about it first". Afternoon were cancelled, and the entire school were reunited to discuss what we all saw

      One of my old neighbors was in the last stages of training for the Air Force at the time. They weren’t told exactly what happened and were just told to prepare the base for full combat readiness, sandbags and all. Everybody thought it was just a drill because the US couldn’t really be under attack. It was only during evening roll call that the COs informed people and it immediately caused a rush to the phones as soon as they were released.

When he saw the news he immediately got in his car and headed back to the bridge. Obviously the bridges were closed so he found a guy with a boat and asked him to take him over to Manhattan. By the time he got there the towers had already collapsed so he mostly helped with search and rescue operations. He lost everyone in his firehouse who was on duty that day.

    Then we were watching together as the news showed that infamous visual of the second plane striking the other tower.
    We both screamed for a second then our voices caught when the towers fell...I still remember that silence.

      Everyone felt this way. The reasons varied but it was also because in 2001 America seemed invincible. It won the Cold War and was the sole Superpower on the planet. That anyone would attack the strongest nation on the planet was shocking. That so many lives were lost was shocking. After so much loss everyone knew there would be a response and not a regular response but a massive one. 20 Years of war in Iraq and Afghanistan was the response. We only stopped because we became weary of it. But we were 100% to 100 years of war back in 2001 on September 12th.

    As a USAF veteran I wasnt too concerned when the furst plane hit. News wasnt clear, I was listening to radio, driving to McCormick place in chicago for a convention. Tuned in to mancow in the morning, heard about the second aircraft, heard that the plane was commercial and knew, KNEW it was terrorism. My heart sank and I called my boss to see if we were still going to setup for the convention. After all, the convention center (a target, I told my boss) can have attendance of almost 40k people per day, for each of the 8 days if the chicago auto show.
    Maybe there were about 1000 people, mostly vendors (was the day before convention opening), very few attendees bc all the airlines were grounded by 11:00 am.

      I was there as well. I can not even see images of the Towers without crying. I watched it smolder every morning for 3 months coming over the Manhattan Bridge on the train. It was the longest-burning fire in history. I was able to get down there on the 3rd day because they would not allow me to leave Manhattan for Brooklyn. I walked downtown and the police and soldiers let me through. What I saw was not real. Had serious PTSD and If you dropped a piece of paper in front of me, I would cry uncontrollably. There was wailing everywhere in the city for months to come.
      Waking up at my girlfriend's place on the Upper West Side on September 12, was truly the worst day of my life. I thought it was a dream and as I woke, it slowly dawned on me that it was not.

My dad (he is still alive) was less than 5 miles from NYC for work. He remembers calling my mom whenever he had the first chance to; he told her that he was okay, but that they saw heavy smoke in NYC from where he was. We heard about the other planes later on. I was 9, so that was 3rd grade? A year later - YEAR. LATER. I was in 4th grade; met this kid, Zachary Munoz. He went to our school year before, but never saw him. Come to find out, one of his uncles was on one of the planes that hit the Towers.

    Regardless of who they are or where they were, I'm always interested in hearing people retell that day from their perspective. Guess because I was alive during this time but remember so little of it, and it's one of those days people remember exactly where they were and what they were doing that day. Even the tiniest details stick with them, and never forget when the world changed.
    I was only 3 years old living in the Midwest when this happened, so I remember next to nothing of that day. The only things that really stick out was my mom driving me and my older brother to preschool that morning, and only in hindsight did I realize she didn't have her usual country music playing in the car. They were broadcasting the events though I had no awareness or recollection of what was being said, but we quickly turned around back home. The tv was switched on while I was playing with my toys on the living room floor, and when I looked up I saw the towers on screen, both were covered in smoke.

Nobody cared who you were or what you believed. Everyone wanted to help each other , and there was a sense of American pride that I wish we could rekindle.

    I worked a swing shift 12 hour days and got up that morning to get around for work. I called my Grandma like I usially did to check in and thats when she told me we are under attack, I didnt know what she ment but we got off the phone I continued to get around for work. It was cold that morning in Michigan so I went out to warm up my truck. It was on the radio I ran in amd turned on the tv I couldnt believe what I was seeing. Fear, anger at the same time watching those people jump still haunts me. I enlisted in the Marines in October and was in Parris Island in January.

    What I liked about this movie is that it focused mostly on the reactions and experiences of people and not the spectacle of the fire and disaster, you don't see either of the impacts, or the towers collapse, there's only a few seconds of footage of the towers burning, the rest focuses on the experience of the first responders who were there. It gives a much different perspective on the events and it really connects people with the victims

    13 years old, living in Finland. I think it was afternoon here, I'd come home (after school, or was it later afternoon, can't remember exactly) and my mom told me a plane had hit the World Trade Center in New York. Pretty soon after she'd said that the second plane hit the other tower. I just remember thinking "it'll be war now". First was a mistake or an accident and after the second everybody knew it's intended. I don't think I watched it live when the first tower collapsed, but I did see it pretty soon after it happened. It's just something you will remember the rest of your life.

    I was in college in Fairfield Connecticut. The students are able to rent beach houses and I was one of them. On a very clear day one could make out the shadows of the Twin Towers. By late morning I could see huge plumes of smoke looking down the Long IslandSound towards NYC.
    My accounting class began at 9AM and my Professor said “I guess everyone has heard the news.” then went on teaching. I hadn’t heard anything yet and a friend told me a small plane hit the trade center. After class I walked to the lobby of the business school where a crowd of people huddled around a big screen TV. By that time there were replays of all the terrible events. Unlike most who saw the events unfold in real time, I had to process it all at once. I felt sick, like I wanted to throw up. MANY classmates had family in NYC.
    Nobody will ever forget where they were when they heard the news that day…

She would have been on that plane if a short in the electricity didn’t reset her alarm clock in the middle of the night. She was at the airport bar cussing her luck until my mom called her and told her to look at the news.

      you can see Jimena seeing a shadow of a plane (which according to real Jimena's account happened irl), news reports and then people saying the second tower was hit, but they didn't show actual impact or even the actual collapsing of buildings (from outside)
      outside of it being a poor taste to show so soon (if ever), the movie also follows (mostly) the accounts of real people, policemen who seemingly didn't see the impact or the collapse

    Most viewed event in history and it’s not even close. 2 billion people watched the second tower get hit, and watched both towers collapse.
    I was in 7th grade when this happened and the world stopped. The entire day, nobody was taught anything in school. Everybody was watching tv. The single most shocking thing I’ve ever witnessed was that first tower coming down. Never in my wildest dreams did I ever thing the entire building was going to collapse.

    I’m in a small town in Ontario, Canada. I was in grade 5 in elementary school. I remember our principle asked all the teachers to gather us (grade 5-8) to the gym. They told us that there were planes flying into building on the USA.
    It’s funny when you’re young and you can understand what’s being said to you, but you can’t actually comprehend that information in an adult way. It was just a weird blurry time when I was absorbing what was being told.

    Had college classes in the morning and family woke me up. We all watched the news report
    they kept showing different angles of footage. There was live footage, and the second plane crashed in at a
    closer angle. I stood up and said " Was that.. was that another plane hitting it?!" My family said no that was just
    earlier footage of the inital hit. Couple seconds went by and I saw the angle as they zoomed out, there was two strikes,
    I repeated no thats another hit, a different plane, my family lost their $#@%, was a crazy day.
