@@summergarcia6242 thank you for your comment. I know Brian personally so wanted it to feel more like a conversation between friends, casual, with one hearing the story for the first time. He has done many talks where he tells his story beginning to end, I wanted this to include all the questions people had after listening to it in the past. Thanks for listening :)
Oh man, I’ve seen so many interviews with Brian. Watching him get older hurts so much and is such a testament to how much time has passed since that day. He’s still as eloquent as ever and his story of survival and saving Stanely is incredible
@@deborahelen3366well ladies if he was 54 twenty years ago, what can we expect? He looks good tho, same strong voice, looks healthy. Only as young as you think you are & feel. 🙏🏿
I feel the same!!! I watched "One Day in America" 3 years ago, and Brian is on there, as well as FDNY Lt. Mickey Cross. I saw a video of Lt. Cross from last week, and he's also getting older. 😢😢😢😢
I’m a Christian and I truly believe God intervenes in moments like these. I remember in my early thirties I was depressed and overwhelmed of all the pressures in life. I didn’t know what to do so I did what Christ did when he was overwhelmed during His ministry…He prayed to His Father. So, I started getting up each morning around 5:30 am to 6:00 am. Sang two or three Christian songs and prayed my heart out to God. I did this for 2 or 3 years consistently. For a while I thought my prayers were going no where until I eventually heard something saying ‘Everything is going to be ok. Your problems will subside. For now try to help others in need in this world” I was taken a back but after 16 years I see my troubles have subsided and I think I have helped others where I could. I’ve learnt as a Christian that it is not about me but what God wants as he sees the bigger picture. If you leave it to Him, He will look after you. I hope this gives someone reading this some hope in Christ. Do what Christ did and see what happens in your life. He is there listening when you pray each time. Guarantee!
@@PotatoTomato-ow8yl This argument is stupid because there's probably numerous event like 9/11 or worse that have been prevented but we don't know bc IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. For example, what about the major US bombing that happened yesterday? Exactly, nothing happened and we don't know and will never know if something was planned.
@@xana5649I don’t think they’re judging. It’s a pretty valid question. In the wake of tragedies, “God saved this person, but not your person” can be a pretty hard thing for atheist families to hear.
I do as well. I've heard his story so many times. All told similarly, but the fact that he's able to provide such detail is absolutely incredible. I love his and Stanley's stories so much and I'm so glad they keep in touch,
@@oneandonlytarasame here. I also will never get tired of listening to him speak so engagingly about his and Stanley's miraculous survival. His ability to articulate is amazing.
A memorial service, I attended years ago, had the title "You can't remember what you haven't heard" - It's SO important that these stories continue to be shared. There is an entire generation that never experienced this moment in history, and have only these stories to learn from. Thank you for continuing to share your experience all these years, Brian! God Speed
I just rewatched one of his talks to a school here on TH-cam yesterday. I rewatch it every year, it's such a miracle story. I decided to post it on my instagram yesterday and had a few people reach out to me thanking me for posting it and that they never heard this story before. Really excited to listen to this one! I can hear him talk about this over and over. So inspiring!!
Brilliant interviewer. Thank you Brian. I've seen your story before and this is the most emotional. God rest the victims. Joe in Glasgow Scotland UK ❤️.
"In an objective, not a subjective mode." This man is a hero, on so many levels. He deserves every medal of valor for what he did, how he was composed. God bless you, Brian.
I’m so glad I watched this. I loved Brian’s story in ‘9/11: One Day in America’ and seeing this and getting the broader story is very healing. I’ll have to look out for the flashlight when I go to the museum. ❤
This was the best interview of him telling his story. I have always enjoyed listening to him tell his story. He seems like a very interesting man and very humble.
I was born in 02 so I wasn’t alive yet , but I’ve been learning and watching so many different videos about 9/11, Brian’s & Stanley’s story is always so impacting and I will continue to watch all different survivors stories since everyone’s is different 🥺💙
When he was describing how the south tower swayed after it was hit and he had that feeling come over him “Brian, you’re going to be alright” .. that was God assuring him he was watching over him and that he was going to be a witness to that tragedy .. gives me chills
So remarkable how he took on his safety role almost immediately even though he had no idea what was going on. This is the first time I heard of Brian’s story; thank you for sharing it.
It's hard to believe it has been 23 years since that day. I remember like it was yesterday and I wasn't even in NYC when it happened. That day forever changed my life and feeling safe in the world.
Thank you for this. Brian and Stanley's story as well as Captain J. Jonas and his team's story have always been my favorite of that awful day. They all prove that God is real. Because he was with all of them that day. Now I'm very late but i saw this and had to watch it. 💞
I ve followed Brian Clarks story for 23 years and everytime I hear it I am more convinced that he has been touched by the hand of God.....here is an ordinary man living a simple life and he was called to speak for so many who did not make it out that horrible day...and Stanley.....well Stanley is Sancho Panza...a trusted partner...and so much more
I was not born when the attacks took place but have seen many 9/11 documentaries and I saw a video once, were this survivor gave a talk explaining step by step what happened on that awful day. A few days ago, I also watched a reconstruction documentary of the events and I can recall what Brian said when he met Stanly. Amazing podcast, thanks for sharing! 😍😃
Brian is a wonderful and inspiring person. He made good decisions that day and his story is remarkable. He tells it so well. It’s great to see him looking so well.
Thank you for Sharing Brian! great messages of hope, faith and light on such a dark event. Thank you specially because as a person that had a personal story with the events at the pentagon and Arlington I find myself 23 years later still processing my own personal grief. I even feel unworthy of calling it that way, but the light of your story does in a way bring hope to sad memories.
Wow what an amazing recollection, I felt like I was right there with him whilst he was retelling it. I don’t think any of us who witnessed it either there or on TV like me across the pond will ever forget 💕
Brian's story is one of the most incredible and enduring from that awful day. I never tire hearing him speak. What is tiring is the host making all sort of sounds during the interview, her voice so close to the mic that all those aberrations are front and center. Let the guest speak without interruption.
Glad he went to work that morning in one way coz he was there to save Stanley Prainmath as their paths were meant to cross even under those unfortunate circumstances but they were there for each other on that fateful day & both their stories are riveting especially by Stanley coz he saw the plane coming towards him. Always gobsmacked that he was lucky to survive the initial impact.
this was such a lovely interview. i love how you asked a lot of questions and for specifics, cause i would do the exact same in your position!! this man is so inspiring and i loved the story about him and stanley, so heartwarming. it's really nice in a bittersweet way that something so horrific has started so many lifelong bonds and friendships, cause this isn't the first time i've seen a friendship start from 9/11. great episode!!
It’s great to see Brian doing well. His is one of the most incredible stories of fortitude I’ve ever heard, despite it being one of the few glimmers of positivity amidst such an awful atrocity. I first read about Brian and Stanley in the incredible book, 102 MINUTES, which I highly recommend.
The fact that he recalls every detail speaks to the trauma that he does not relise he has. Also , the said that he was BeinG objective not UnderstandinG he was likley in shock.
Overall, a fantastic interview and story from Brian Clark! One of the most powerful and profound from 9/11. Yes, at times the interviewer was interrupting and talking over Brian and was somewhat annoying, but I really liked how specific and thorough she was in her questions and getting all the details of his story.
He’s actually really funny… he was disappointed that the photographer didn’t have a wider angle so he could get Stanley in the photo and then he says, “that would have been a classic.” 😅 He’s an incredible story teller & I am so glad he and Stanley got out, and ultimately saved each other. Sorry to all those didn’t make it. 🕊️
In other words Brian would have rather seen Bin Laden captured and brought to justice. To answer for his crimes. The same feeling that fireman Mickey Kross said. His story about his survival is incredible. When the south tower collapsed he and a group had survived on a stairwell! I couldn't believe how old Mickey got since his last interview. But he's still alive and well. I love Brian and Stanley's amazing story, great podcast.
Brian Clark has an incredible story. I watch his interviews every year. I'm pretty much obsessed with 9/11 stories and just how scary the whole thing is. The thought of people having to jump because of the heat and smoke is a horrifying thought that I can barely manage to stomach
Same. I love his story. I too am much too obsessed with 9/11 stories. Constantly on the lookout for a story I haven't yet heard. I think I've seen every doc by now. I think! Lol
Love listening to his story because of his ability to speak. 9/11 still is something I think about for a variety of reasons. I joined the military because of these events albeit being in Middle School when this occurred. That said, Mr. Clark's dream sequence gave me chills. How powerful/sad.
Dear Mr Brian Clark … as if as like has good family life … there on that day … God still test your heart … and miraculously… God reward you of true wanting … a brother … blood brother … . God bless you and brother… and family and friends… .
One of the best interviews I have ever watched 🥹 He told the story with details perfectly , and you asked the best questions . This interview made me feel more like a human and I also enjoyed the story so much 🫶 RIP to all people who lost their lives 🖤
I feel the same way on what Brian said about people cheering for the death of Osama Bin Laden. Even though he was evil and his actions were evil, and I hate what he stood for, I would never want anyone to die.
I'm with Brian about cheering someone's death. It's OK to feel those feelings but it is not something you cheer. It's not a football game. It's strange to me
I really appreciate Brian’s words beginning at 1:20:00. I had the same thought in the moment, I was bothered by the cheering a Bin Laden’s death. It was not appropriate, regardless of his crime.
I’ve seen many interviews with Brian in the past, but something about this one felt comforting. Thank you!

Excuse me Mame WHY DO YOU KEEP RUDELY INTERRUPTING HIM. PLEASE STOP 🛑

I feel this comment keenly. It's weird to have 'favorite survivors,' but Brian Clark and Denny Fitch (from Flight 232) are mine.
I feel the same thing.
He looks like a grandpa now ❤️
The voice is still the same

So why didnt he intervene and make it not happen? Or choose one person over others
