An absolutely beautiful and powerful story from something so tragic.
Some people really are just heroes ❤
Luke, as a Newfoundlander, and one that was in their last year of high school at the time of the attacks, I just have to say that this is who we are. There is never a second thought when it comes to helping out a neighbour or a stranger. When disaster strikes we do what we gotta do. We live on a rock in the North Atlantic, and we depend mostly on each other during rough times. Thank you, and thank you to Judd as well, for doing this. For taking the time to watch this little piece of history in a vastly historic time. Much love to you and yours ❤ ** PS - Please come to Newfoundland! Bring your wife and the boys! Bring the whole family! I love my island and there is absolutely no doubt you will as well ✌
I was obsessed with watching the stories about this event in New Foundland. There are a lot of them. The play Come From Away came out and won awards. Watched all the interviews. All on yt.
Three documentaries I recommend is:
wild lands wild horses(video link: th-cam.com/video/5Lftvyrj4PY/w-d-xo.html )(video length: 50 minutes 38 seconds)
Pass the safe act now 2024(video link:
th-cam.com/video/jLKw__FkPrY/w-d-xo.html )(video length: 12 minutes 3 seconds)
Wild Mustangs Reunite at Skydog Sanctuary(Video Link:
m.th-cam.com/video/SQuj6kQmmTo/w-d-xo.html )(Video Length: 14 minutes 15 seconds)
I absolutely love how empathetic you are. "Reactears" are the best.
If you haven’t watched it yet, watch The Falling Man 9/11
Newfoundlander here. What this documentary omitted was that the local veterinarians took the animals from the planes and cared for them.
I read the book about Gander and it was mentioned there - the dogs were taken for walks, and given cuddles. Amazing.❤❤❤❤
Thank you so much for everything you all did. There are no words.
Thank you for that. I was so worried about them!
God Bless each and everyone of you ☦️❤️🔥
Thank you all for taking care of our people when they couldn’t come home and their animals America thanks you all🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️
as a Canadian, as soon as I saw the title, I was like "oh man, Luke is gonna bawl".
🫶🇺🇸🇨🇦
imagine if he watchs the Terry Fox story
@@Gantzz321 Oh dear
Agreed, this is a story that Luke needed to have a box of tissues nearby
Thank you!!
You ask ANY American where they were and what they were doing on September 11, 2001 and EVERY SINGLE one of us can, in great detail, tell you exactly where we were and what we were doing. Me, personally? I was in my 3rd grade class about to read Uncle Ben's Cabin. My birthday was the day before so, I had on a purple shirt with a butterfly on it and I had recieved it from my parents. My name was called from the loudspeaker and was told I was going home. Everyone just started looking at each other because I had been the 4th person to be taken home that day. Mind you, it's only 9 am at this point. So, the first plane had hit 15 minutes before this. I picked up my backpack, said goodbye to my classmates and my teacher, and made my way down the hallway to the office. The look on my mom's face....I will NEVER forget. The way she rushed me out after signing me out was crazy. We got in the car and she just kept looking at the sky the whole way home. At the time, I didn't really understand why. She also kept saying my dad's cousin's name over and over, which I thought was really strange too. It wasn't until we got home and she turned on the tv that I completely understood. We got home right before the second plane hit. I saw the second plane make impact into the second tower....at EIGHT! My mom was crying and I started crying and she kept saying my dad's cousin's name again and she said, "Maria went to work today! She's there today! I hope she got out! She had to get out!" It was the worst day in my whole childhood. Not knowing for 6 hours if she had gotten out or not was torture. My dad came home from work panting and crying saying that Maria's uncle got her and she's safe and she's alive. It was very traumatic. It was just a horrible thing to be a part of. My dad's cousin was one of the few that got out and is still alive. Every year, they have the memorial and they read every single person's name who passed in the tradegy. That birthday is forever tarnished by tradegy. RIP to all who perished from terrorists. If anyone reads this comment and have family members, friends, collegues, mentors, former employees, etc who passed durung this horrible historical event, my heart goes out to each and every of you. ❤
I'm Canadian, I'd say you could ask us all the same thing and we could tell you. 2 hrs from Niagara. Grade 8. We were one of the few with a tv on wheels in the room. We put on cnn after the first plane hit. I remember like 15 teachers standing in the back of the room watching. Then the second plane hit. I remember teachers leaving shortly after that. About 30 mins later. They closed our schools and sent us home. I wasn't too far from school and old enough to be on my own, so I walked home with a few friends and we sat and basically stared at the tv the rest of the morning. Still absolutely clear as day.
So true, we all know where we were.
I had just turned 31 nine days earlier. We live on the west coast so I was getting my kids ready for school. We always had the news on in the morning. We were sitting watching the screen as the planes hit, as buildings burned, watching people jumping to their deaths. It was horrifying. When the second plane hit, my middle girl was 8 as well at the time. She had always been a rather stoic kid. She asked me, "Mom, did we just watch people die?" I instantly had a lump in my throat - telling her yes, we did almost broke me. She just cocked her head to the side and said, "That's really rough." She remembers that conversation even today. I let my kids stay home that day. I will never get the image out of my head of people jumping from the building. I couldn't even wrap my head around the level of desperation something like that could entail. I **still** cry at the documentaries.
I know exactly where I was on 9/11. I was in the air over the Atlantic Ocean and, unbeknownst to me, was destined for an unexpected stop in Gander. All I can say is that the citizens of Gander and St. John's Newfoundland are the most exceptional people in the world. I will never forget the kindness and love they showed to all of us passengers during those days. God bless you all!
I was 5, and immediately could tell something was wrong because it was too bright in my room. I woke up too late to go to school, meaning mom and dad didn’t wake me up. I walked out to the living room and for a second I thought I was in trouble because mom was crying and dad had this dark, angry look on his face (he’s a pilot, former Air Force). My older sister was being held by my mom, and mom reached out for me. I got worried and scared but went to comfort my mom. The images were mostly replays by that point, but I thought it was a movie or something. Didn’t fully understand. But they kept showing the planes hitting the towers, over and over, until my sister says (with all of her 7 years of wisdom) “okay, okay, we GET it already!!!” My mom tried to shush her, but then dad spoke for the first time and said “No. She’s right.” And he grabbed the remote and put on blues clues. Presumably mom and dad went to discuss the situation together. It really affected dad. We stayed home from school that day.
A while afterwards, when I finally understood what had happened, I got really messed up about dad going to work-especially if he ever left without me saying I loved him-because I didn’t want him to die. This event was so far-reaching, and so influential on our childhoods… I appreciate TH-camrs expanding the public awareness of these stories even decades on.
My personal connection to this is that when 9/11 happened my sister and her husband were vacationing in Scotland. They were due to fly back on 9/13 but of course ended up waiting almost two weeks before they could get a flight. During those extra days in Scotland and London they told me they almost never paid for a drink or a meal; some stranger had paid already, and they often never knew who. And, although Scots and Brits are not often demonstrative, they received a lot of sympathy and support, which got them through a scary, anxious time. So thanks to your country's good people on their behalf.
I was a 25 year old teacher right outside Washington DC, with students who lived in DC, a student whose sister was on the plane that hit the Pentagon, another student with a mother that died in the Pentagon. I packed about 100 bags of snacks and drinks for the kids to be returned home. It's DC and it was on lock-down, so they needed police escort home. It was like nothing I've see. The silence in the US for days was eerie. No noise in the sky. My friend Tim worked in the north tower of the World Trade Center, and was late because his daughter forgot her backpack. He lost every single co-worker he had, and after several funerals, he checked himself into a hospital. I sat at a bar that night with friends, watching the news, seeing it happen over and over again. It changed society, life as we knew it.
I'm so sorry you had to experience that. It was bad enough being a coast away. I can't imagine what it was like on the front of that nightmare. I hope your friend has recovered and has been able to find peace.
I believe it was in 2016 that the US arranged a convoy of firefighters from various precincts to escort a piece of World Trade Center steel all the way from New York to Gander. There were fire trucks and firefighters on motorcycles. Once they crossed the border into Canada, they were greeted by Canadian firefighters also on motorcycles. So Gander has that gift from us.
You're right. This clip shows part of the event : th-cam.com/video/YCaIBn3JF1s/w-d-xo.html
Yep. It's displayed in the old international terminal, which was given a big makeover a few years ago and has a display that goes over the history of Gander and its airport. It's prominently displayed at one end, and stands as a memorial to your fellow Americans who lost their lives that day, a testament to the spirit of Gander and the other small towns in the area, a symbol of the connection we have, and a reminder of the good parts of humanity that can be found among the worst parts of the worst of times. It's actually a nice little display.
As an American who has seen this before, I have to tell you I cried as hard and as often as you did while watching this video. The great thing is, and what I find wonderful, is I cried more for the good deeds done than for the tragedy that happened.
Great reaction, and as a canadian all i can say is you don't have to try and help everyone. even helping just 1 person makes a ripple that helps spread hope
This documentary should be broadcast everywhere, every year, along with many others.
52:41
"I Will Spend My Whole Life Trying To Half As Good Of A Person As This Whole Town"
That's actually a great takeaway from this reaction
There is a musical about operation yellow ribbon called 'Come From Away'. It went to Broadway and won a Tony award.
It’s also able to be streamed on Apple TV if anyone hasn’t seen it.
Newfie here, i wasnt old enough to remember the plane people but i do think about this moment all time and how on the darkest day in a long time people came together. It always cheers me up.
Also, you should check out the documentary, Miracle in stairway B, its about people pulled from the rubble alive
We were at work and watch the second plane on tv, hit the second tower. No one spoke, it seemed like forever. Then it was ‘oh my God’ this cannot be happening. We were on the east coast and a direct flight path for all planes north and south. The skies were completely empty and eerily quiet. We closed up and we all went home to watch it over and over again. I’m 71 years old this year and did not know the story of Gander until two years ago. My gratitude and respect for this incredible group of people is immeasurable. Thank you Gander and thank you for your reaction and sharing this story with others.
You asked about the strips the air traffic controllers were moving around, the are called ATC strips or flight progress strips. Prior to a flight departing the pilot files a flight plan that includes:
Airline name and flight number
Type of aircraft and equipment
Intended airspeed and cruising altitude
Route of flight (departure airport, centers that will be crossed and destination airport)
Your pilot then transmits this data to the tower. In the tower, a controller called a flight data person reviews the weather and flight-plan information and enters the flight plan into the FAA host computer. The computer generates a flight progress strip that will be passed from controller to controller throughout your flight. The flight progress strip contains all of the necessary data for tracking your plane during its flight and is constantly updated.
Once the flight plan has been approved, the flight data person gives clearance to your pilot (clearance delivery) and passes the strip to the ground controller in the tower. Once your plane takes off, your pilot activates a transponder device inside the aircraft. The transponder detects incoming radar signals and broadcasts an amplified, encoded radio signal in the direction of the detected radar wave. The transponder signal provides the controller with your aircraft's flight number, altitude, airspeed and destination. A blip representing the airplane appears on the controller's radar screen with this information beside it. The controller can now follow your plane.
You’ll see the controllers move the strips as a plane is handed from ground control at the airport to the local controller and then onto the departure controller, it goes through several more hand offs during the course of its flight with new strips being printed at each change, then as your flight reaches its destination an approach controller takes over before the local and then ground controllers take over again.
Ex Canadian ATC guy here: Thanks for posting that. Great job describing the process to the great unwashed.
@@billfarley9167 Thank you! You guys have such highly demanding jobs, I have much respect for ATC personnel. One of my sisters is a pilot, her husband was a pilot, we have a cousin who was a flight attendant and her husband was a pilot, and one of my nephew’s wife’s family all work for Alaska Airlines, her parents and sister are all flight attendants. So I’ve kind of picked up random information related to flying over the years.
"Terry Fox, Anything’s Possible"
Terry Fox was the great person to ever live imo.
I lived in Madison, Wisconsin, USA on 9/11. I was a nurse at a Plasma collection facility in downtown Madison. We closed for 3 days since we didn’t know if capital cities or larger metropolitan areas were being targeted. Plus, whole blood vs specifically plasma might have been needed more emergently so we wanted our donors to be free to choose. I lived less than a mile from our regional airport and we were directly under a major flight path. While the commercial planes were grounded, that silence was deafening. To see all the extra planes parked wing tip to wing tip on the tarmac was surreal. And to witness the F16 fighter jets patrolling day and night was frightening.
Being an American, I have to admit (a bit shamefully), that I wasn't aware of the depth of this story, as I was totally wrapped up in the 911 Twin Towers tragedy as it unfolded-it was all we lived for days and days (weeks and months), so seeing this, I cried right along with you, Luke. To witness such compassion, such kindness-the genuine warmth these strangers extended to other strangers, simply incredible. Strangers no more..... thank you...
Hey great reaction. I felt that shit too. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen that. I remember that day. I’m from St. John’s Newfoundland. I was 21 in 2001 when that happened. We had a bunch of planes land too. We went to our plane spotting location and watched them all come in. Never forget it.
There are a few stories I like to watch when I need a reminder that many people are good and kind. This is one of them. I feel fortunate to be in the US, and fortunate to have a neighboring country like Canada.
I had the opportunity to work with several members of FDNY & NYPD with the editing of their stories about their experiences. It was emotional for all.
Humanity’s darkest moments are almost always followed by its finest hours. Gander is a prime example of that. There’s a book about Gander as well, I highly recommend it
The kindness of the Canadian people in our time of need is much appreciated and mind blowing. Thank younpeople of Gander for helping our countrymen in their time of need. And please dont forget the people of the Pentagon that got hit and United 93 whose passengers were heros. Whose names should not be forgotten. God always takes something bad or evil and turn it around for good and His glory.
Stop it! You've got me crying again! LOL. This is what is best about your channel, you get fired up and and upbeat when you enjoy something for the first time, and then you get emotional with your heartfelt reactions when a video tugs at your heartstrings. Thank you, Luke.
Yes! You should visit North America. Canada and the U.S. will welcome you. Oh, yeah, I forgot that there is a tiny bit of France here on the east coast too...
My daughter turned 1 on September 12... On the 11th I was sitting in the recliner feeding her a bottle. I was watching Good Morning America. I couldn't believe what I was watching. It didn't seem real. I was physically ill but numb at the same time
Your reaction shows you are a very empathetic person. Your wife and family are very blessed. ❤
A beautiful people whose outreach is so inspiring. As a Canadian, my heart pours unbelievable love.
That damned Hay Fever making Luke's eyes water so much throughout this.
We LOVE our wonderful neighbors to the North! I've been to Canada. And wow...the Canadian people are always SO sweet and kind! And they're right...we would absolutely be there for them! There's just not enough words to thank them for their amazing kindness.
Hearing that you’d be there for us means everything ❤🇨🇦
If you’re looking for another incredible story to look at I highly recommend Genelle Guzman McMillans story. She was the last survivor found on 9/11 over 24hours after the buildings fell and was in one of the stairwells when the building collapsed. Her survival story is so moving.
I'm so glad that people around the world get to see through this documentary, how lovely the people are in the place my father called home and the place that is a part of me. A place I've always loved.
I stood in my living room as I turned on my TV. I didn't move for a very long time, tears streaming down my face. Praying that everyone got out. I saw the second plane go in, my heart breaking. Then news of the Pentagon, then the first tower fell, it was almost in slow motion, then the second came down. Watching the maps as the air traffic cleared the skies. Then Flight 93 information.
September 12, 2001, all of America was covered in American flags. Everyone was trying to do something to help. Donating blood, trucks full of bottled water, every able body went to ground zero to help. It was the saddest yet most amazing time in my life. Seeing the world come together.
I bawled right along with u the entire time . & I’ve seen this several times already … I feel exactly what you are . Thanks for expressing ur emotions so honestly . ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🤍
The story behind Yellow Ribbon goes back to the worst years of the Vietnam war. A singing group named Dawn had a huge hit song Yellow Ribbon. About a man cinnamon home sfter spending time in prison. He’s not sure if his wife or girlfriend would welcome him home, he wrote her to tie a yellow rib around the old oak tree. If he wasn’t welcome there would e none and he would go on his way. This song brought the idea across all of America when veterans from the Vietnam war were expected to be coming home, their families tied yellow ribs on the trees. What a sight it was a sign of welcome
United Flight 93 is very hard to watch, because of what the passenger did on that flight that day ,thay save a lot of lives.
I’m a nurse and I know exactly which patient I was taking care of when I saw this on her television. Her name was Sandra just like mine. Our nursing home was in shock. You could hear a pin drop not a sound from a resident or an employee, we were stunned And scared I just wanted to get to my kids. This was the worst day in America. It will never be forgotten and neither will all the people that died. God bless America.🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸✝️✝️✝️❤️❤️❤️
I didn't know about this story until the musical Come From Away was created. I fell in love immediately not only because I love musicals but this story was such a bright light during a very dark time. While the world watched in horror at home, Gander was partying it up and having a blast. I love this story so much. Beverly Bass is one of my hero's! Also check out the documentary You Are Here A Come From Away Story, and also the musical Come From Away. Ive seen that musical like 10 times already. It's one of my favs.
I love how honest and vulnerable you are in all your videos. I have thought so since the first time I saw you watching BTS for the first time and have been here since. Thanks for never changing who you are. 🤗🤗🤗
This is the first of your reaction videos I've seen. I can see you are a man of compassion and kindness. I will be subscribing. Thank you.
No matter how many times I see this, I don't last 30 seconds without tears in my eyes for my country! My son was a Marine stationed at Camp David (the Presidential retreat in Maryland) and it was a day of fear and prayer!!! God bless you .... and I mean that in the best way possible! If this inspires you to be a better person, then SOME good has come from this! There are lots of good people left and when needed, they just show up. Texas is about to be hit by another hurricane and I'm sure people are already getting things in line to help them days ahead of the damage that will be! Be proud that you feel so much compassion for others. The problem with the world today is that so many don't have any compassion! I've found that tears are a sign of great love and apparently you love your fellow man!!! Thanks for you reaction!!!!!
From Canada: Hey British Guy! You may want to check out the Halifax, Nova Scotia explosion on Dec 6, 1917. Two ammunition ships collided in Halifax harbour and almost wiped the city off the map. The side story is how the City of Boston sent huge donations of medical and food supplies along with men & equipment to help in the rescue of trapped residents. To this day the City of Halifax sends a 30/40 foot high Christmas tree to Boston to be set up in the city square every Yuletide. A compelling story.
I appreciate and respect your quietness throughout this incredible documentary. I knew nothing of Gander and their most generous involvement, and I'm so grateful to have watched this with you.
I missed the actual "event" as I was in labour and was only told that there had been a plane crash. I learnt the full heartbreaking, horrific extent some 5 days later. Even then, I only saw short snippets. I ought to add that I'm from the UK, and so, our news channels didn't continue to play footage after 3 or 4 days. I learned much, much more on the 1st anniversary.
Thank you for reacting to the Gander story. Your honest reaction was very heartfelt. I knew the story and have seen the play Come From Away, but despite that I cried watching your reaction. It makes one happy to know that there are a lot of good people around the world. And of course being Canadian, it made me proud also. Thank you. 👏👏🥰🇨🇦🇨🇦
Do you know that QEII told the band at Buckingham Palace to play the Star Spangled Banner? The video makes me cry every time. Many Americans in London had gathered at the palace gates, in tears, silent… and she became their mom in that moment, I guess.
That you grieve so deeply and openly for people you don't know is a reflection on what a compassionate and caring person you are❤
Thank you for your reaction, it's beautiful. I really appreciate you. Thank you again
I watched this documentary for the first time along with you...seeing people's kindness always touches my heart & I used up a box of tissues watching your reaction. ❤
I'd also like to point out that the US and Canada has a long history of helping each other out, since 1971 Nova Scotia has sent the city of Boston a christmas tree, this act goes back to the Halifax explosion in 1917 when a ship carrying munitions exploded it the harbor leveling the whole city of Halifax, it was the largest non nuclear explosion ever. Boston upon receiving news of this immediately loaded a train with supplies and medical staff and within 36 hours were the first relief the doctors in Halifax had gotten from anyone. So every year as a thank you Nova Scotia sends Boston a christmas tree
I had sent my son off to school on the bus. At 9:15 i began to receive calls. My neighbor was first and she knew i just dropped off my son. I hit the tv and was in shock. It was scary enough, until we saw the second hit. I said we are at war. I tried my mom and my sister because my dad and brother in law were there every day. Dad just made it t the bridge to NJ. My brother in law walked home from NYC to a train station where he eventually had gotten a ride. I thank God for it. I quickly picked up my child from school because i was truly afraid that it wasn’t over. Then I heard about the Pentagon and eventually Pennsylvania. All close to us. It was a terrible horrific time. It was fear, disgust, terror and adrenaline. I was glued for weeks. Hoping and praying for all of the people. That they got lucky too. We were beyond lucky
I stumbled upon your reaction video to the 'Boat lift" and I just subscribed. I also enjoy learning about historic events. ** four planes were hijacked. I don't think Canada received due credit. Thank you for your incredible amount of support and kindness..
I’ve seen this video many times times and cry every time with both sadness and and incredible JOY and thankfulness to the people of Canada who were so kind and generous to all the “PLANE PEOPLE “ who were diverted there under such terrible cuts! 💕💝😍🥰💝
Thank you so much for this wonderful story and all the great people of Gander. It is a reaffirmation of my belief that there are more good people in this world than evil ones. God Bless you for shedding this blessed light of the 9/11 tragedy. We usually hear only the sad parts. This was such a refreshing video to watch and I blessed by it on 8/22/24. Thank you again!!!
“When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, "Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping.”
― Fred Rogers
Another truly inspirational story that is little known outside of Canada is Terry Fox : Anything is possible. Like this story, I think it is important for people to know about it . He was an incredible humanitarian and a Canadian hero. Strongly recommended, must watch!!!
There is so much negative energy on social media. People tend to forget that there are real people in this world who are good and will do whatever they can for you.
They made a broadway musical about this, it's called "Come From Away". You should try and see it, it's wonderful. Canadians will always do this when anyone is in trouble. That's what we are known for.
I love your reaction. You have such an amazing soul and kindness about you. Cheers mate
The NY theater made a show about Gander, it's called "Come from away" look it up, it's a wonderful tribute to the people of Gander :)
What a fantastic and REAL reaction shug💔🙏🏻❣️. We don't really need ya to give commentary shug, we are really lookin for your genuine emotions and therefore your openin yer heart 💖 to all of us🙏🏻❣️. Darlin yer a beautiful soul and I'm very glad I've found your channel🙂❣️. I noticed that at one point in this that'cha mentioned " the three planes". There were actually four planes that day. The two that hit the World Trade Centers , the one that hit the Pentagon, and the fouth plane, United Flight 93 ✈️. If I'm not mistaken 🤔, I believe there is also a documentary, or two even, that have been made, and there are heartbreaking but a MUST see 🙈. Ill try and find the doc i watched and send ya the link. Have a wonder-filled rest of yer evenin puddin 🙏🏻🙂❣️.
As a child, did you ever have an innocent crush on an adult? Mine was Mark Bingham (a decade older). He died on Flight 93, taking the terrorists down, famously. His mom (retired flight attendant) would later reveal to me in a hushed, shaky voice, that he was gay.
She actually whispered it, afraid someone else might overhear. She broke down when I shared that my dad had come out of the closet too, a top physicist and chemical engineer (he'd later take his own life).
America, who do you want to be? Please do not take your power to vote lightly.
If you didn't know NATO the North Atlantic treaty organization has an official TH-cam channel and they have a small documentary about NATO on 9/11 and the response it's pretty interesting to check out also if you didn't know the queen had the United States anthem played at Buckingham Palace after she was made aware of the attack
The tiles that the ATC's deal with are aircraft descriptions, detailing flight number/squawk frequencies. When an aircraft is deemed too heavy to land it means that the landing gear cannot handle the weight of the aircrraft
You,re a real man with a great heart! I see that!
Having lived in fort mcmurray , newfies are pretty great.
It was all planes in the air, across the country that were forced to land in Canada. Cities right across the country took in planes, in Edmonton, Alberta we had planes from all corners of the world, they were here for several days before air space cleared again. Everyone was taken care of no matter their race, religion, language, nationality, we felt honoured to help in any way.
There is another documentary called Come from away that goes more into detail about this and the activities that the town put together to keep passengers busy while they were there.😊
The accent you hear is definitely a strong eastern Canadian Maritime accent. English touched with Gaelic from Scottish and Scots-Irish immigrants. It is fun when you get these pockets where you can tell the heritage of the region from the accent. Kind of like the Minnesota accent, very heavy Scandinavian inflection.
I'm just glad Judd is in your life.We've been able to see your real heart because of him.
I don't know why they never show a show "Grounding on 911" and it's about how all those planes were landed. It's an amazing show..they need to show it more often.
If I Ever get to Canada, I'm going Straight to Gander, to thank as many as I can, for them bring some of the Most Wonderful people on the Planet! Love to the Best Neighbors a Country could Ever Have!❤❤❤🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
Im from Cape Breton Nova Scotia it is the Keltic Capital of North America. Full of decendents of the Irish and Scots.
You are one of the kindest, most genuine Reactors. I'm always at a loss the first time I see one of the 9/11 docs. I feel so blessed to have Canada as our Northern neighbor 😭🫶✌️🙏. It gives me hope for a better world.
Makes me so proud to be Canadian 🇨🇦🖖🏻
Notice the date on the video from the interview of the firefighter, August 2001!
You are a wonderful man. Your flowing tears are a testament to just how big your loving heart is. Your children are very lucky to have a loving father like you. I'm happy to see that the kindness of others moves you so much. You are beautiful.
Do not say sorry for not saying a word! Showing deep emotions is more than words can tell sometimes. ❤ THANK YOU. Please watch the Terry Fox story
There is also a brodway musical made about this story, ,Come From Away. It's wonderful.
Security is so very difficult in a Nation that is so open and free!
The reason some planes were too heavy to land, and needed to jettison fuel is because their original destination was further away. The female pilot interviewed was flying Paris to Texas, but landed in New Foundland, almost 5,000 km closer.
During World War II, Gander, Newfoundland was a major airport as it was the last North American refueling station for flights to Britain.

Ganders Ripple Effect. It is the continuation of this one then going into how Ganders actions sparked a Broadway musical Come From Away!!!
45:06 I’m the same with covid/2020 being an amazing year for me becoming a cat mom and starting a cat rescue that brought me immense joy and also being sad it was a horrible, terrifying year for so many people. I have lupus and can’t fight off infections so I had to be home alone for a full year until I got a vaccine and then could go back to work. If I get a common cold I have to be hospitalized because I can’t fight off infections. But I’m lucky that I didn’t get covid bc of isolating and masks. But the baby kittens made it worth it lol
You such a sweetheart, Luke.. Thank you honorary American man!! xo
Newfoundland are beautiful people and very welcoming
There is a video of a broadway show created about the people of Gander and New Foundland it is a great making of and more stories.
The heavier the plane (due to the amount of fuel in the tanks) the longer the runway needs to be because they need a longer distance to stop. Well, the length of runways is finite. Plane too heavy = runway too short to stop in time = too heavy to land. They would run off the end of the runway and crash. The easiest way to fix it is to dump the fuel to make the plane lighter.
It's the same with heavy trucks or trains or even ships, but roads, rails, and waterways are not as limited.
This is just a snippet of the documentary. You should watch the full film. There's so much more.
Thank you kind Canada people ❤😢
I’m literally watching your video right now. And, as tears stream freely down my face, I simply have no words to express to you how much your genuine heartfelt emotions mean to me.
Ironically, I’m a writer…my love is language.
But here, watching you and your heartbreak for us , your admiration for the good people of Gander, touches my heart deeply.
I too, am often touched by the capacity of some human beings who can love unconditionally and to such an admirable degree. It makes it harder to understand why others could be so equally vicious and unkind.
So, in short, thank you for being the wonderful, kind , compassionate and loving individual that you are.
This would needs you. It needs more people like you. ❤️👍🏽🙏🏼
Ps…I love your reaction videos. You strike me as a very genuine man. I can respect that.
Over a decade ago I posted a vid, well actually 3 cuz TH-cam would only allow 10 min vids at the time. Called A world without racism the story of Lanier Phillips. Credit to Chris Brooks who reported the story, I just tried to piece together the visuals. But it’s another story of Newfoundlanders dropping everything to rescue strangers in the most adverse conditions. It’s what we do. Lanier’s story they joked that they tried to scrub the black off a black man. The reality is kinda gander level.
Another Canadian story you might want to check out is the Gimli Glider.
The plane has to release fuel to alleviate the weight of the plane to land safely. The MLW is set in order to ensure safe landings; if an aircraft weighs too heavy during touchdown,
If you look at the date of Kevin orouke interview, it's done in August. He would be dead in a month
Not sure if you did a reaction on this 911 videos from a guy who was doing a documentary on the NYC fire dept its called 9/11 - Jules Naudet "Higher Quality" Raw Video and Sound Clips
Omg... who is cutting onions again, damn it.😭😭😭😭😭
Too heavy to land is when the plane has too much fuel weight to stop the plane safely on the runway. Overweight planes takes longer runways to stop.
You are a good good man. peace&love from The United States of America
Just think friend This is who we are . ! We are Canadians . Nationwide ! .
If you check out Canada's National Anthem, we stand on guard.
