      Yeah agreed I was 10 years old but on the other side of the country. I will never forget after the first tower fell my brother saying to me "you just watched thousands of people die" in a very somber way and the profound impact, that and the events of that day had on me and my life. I was 10 years old and wanted to help, but I was on the other side of the country and only 10 years old. Seven years later I enlisted in the Army

    I'm in my mid-30's, now, and the anniversary of 9/11 is kind of a mindfuck for me. I was 17 when it happened. Don't get me wrong, a good amount of people still post about it, and remember it, but you just realize that for most of these college-aged kids and under, it's just something they heard about.
    For us, it's this monumental thing that we saw....live. That definitely leaves a mark on your soul. Seeing it happen on TH-cam still hits you hard, but nothing like it being a monumental mark in your life and seeing someone die right before your eyes, by jumping from a building. You feel it, too.
    I also agree that it's kind of fading off. As more kids grow up who don't remember it, it'll become just an every 5 year thing, then a 10 year thing, then a 25 and 50 anniversary thing. Sure, you'll still have the "hardcores" that post about it, every year, but it won't be the same. Makes me feel really old. Seems like it was just yesterday.

      It happens to all generations. I'm the same age as you - it's like our view of the JFK assassination and our parents' view of Pearl Harbor. The events occurred recent enough to be part of our lifetime, but far back enough that it just feels like a historical moment and nothing else.

      I'm right there with you @truth teller, I'm 34 and it feels like it was so much more recent then 18 years ago. I was home sick from school that day and I remember watching on CBS 2 after the first one hit, (we didn't have cable). My dad woke me up to tell me and I just couldn't believe it and honestly thought it was an accident because small planes had crashed into buildings in the city before. Once that 2nd one hit, I realized something was up. Then when the Pentagon got hit, my father said, "we're under attack." To this day, those words are burned into my memory. Because I couldn't believe what I was hearing or seeing.
      But sadly I feel that Ant is correct, the passage of time will lessen the remembrances and memorials that will be had. I'd say mostly cuz there'll be more people that weren't alive or old enough when it happened.

    • @E101ification
      @E101ification 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was at school and had no idea it was happening when it happened. I got home and turned the TV on ready to watch my cartoons (I was a very immature 13 year old) to find every channel had some news coverage of a big disaster somewhere else in the world. I got annoyed at the fact it was on every channel and popped in a VHS tape of South Park I'd recorded from the night before and started watching it. About 10 minutes into South Park my family came home running in and freaking out and I was thinking what the fuck is wrong with them. After a few minutes of watching the news coverage I realized whatever had happened happened in New York. After a few more minutes I realized it was a deliberate attack and that this would change the world forever.
      18 hours later I was making jokes about it with my friends at school. I'm in the UK and I guess it being so far away - and me being a dumb 13 year old - it just didn't seem that bad to make jokes about it. Looking back I realize what an ass I kind of was.

      I was also recently on a course with a bunch of 18-20 year olds and the subject of September 11th came up and it hit me that they were all talking about it like it was "something that happened in history". I asked them if any of them actually remember it and they all said they were too young. I thought they might be interested in hearing what it was like from someone who was around then but they couldn't care less. lol

    I finally went and visited New York last month for the first time. Visiting the monument and seeing where it all went down really hits home. Very emotional and it seems very surreal. Very different perspective seeing it in person compared to watching it on television. I was 28 years old when we were attacked and I remember it like it was yesterday.

    • @rickbrenner6079
      @rickbrenner6079 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I was 28, too, when we were attacked.
      I was at a professional development conference for my job listening to the guy who wrote the book, “A Boy Called It”: Dave Pelzer. When the co-worker I was with got up to go to the bathroom around 10:00am. When she came back to the table we were seated at, she had tears in her eyes and told me what happened. The organizer of the conference allowed any of us that wanted to leave if we had any relatives that might have been impacted by the tragedy. My dad worked in Manhatten and had accounts downtown near the WTC. So I decided to leave to try and call him to see he was ok. I knew he would be but I was so filled with anger that I wouldn’t have been able to concentrate on the rest of the conference, if I was to stay.
      I visited the site a year later prior to the construction of the Freedom Tower to at my respects to the fallen.
      At that time, in the Fall of 2002, there was a makeshift memorial at the site with the names of all the victims. It was very emotional. I went back to NYC in 2016 and visited the Freedom Tower. Most beautiful elevator experience of my life.

    I fell asleep on my sofa watching TV here in the UK. I woke up in a daze at 3pm or so, and sort of realised whatever I was watching wasn't on TV any more, and it was some kind of disaster movie on the TV, with smoke billowing out of a skyscraper. I thought it was a realistic disaster movie, told from the point of view of the news. I remember thinking 'wow, that actor looks just like Colin Powell', and I carried on watching thinking it was a pretty engrossing movie that I'd never heard of. It was only when the second plane hit that I changed channels only to see the same thing, and realised it was real. I must have sat there with my mouth open in shock for at least 30 minutes. I can't even imagine what it must have been like to have been in New York on the day, especially what that second plane hit.

    I was 17 when it happened. Me and my buddy went down to the requiter office for the Marines. My dad was in Nam so figured its my turn. Soon as i said I had asthma, they denied me. I was heartbroken. Now seeing my buddies that went and came back all fucked up and the horseshit "war on terror" i think i dodged something that could have ended me. Plus dad was glad i didn't go because he didn't trust the government after Vietnam.

    I was 10 years old on 9/11. I listened to Keith on O&A in the days and weeks to follow and could hear a piece of what he was going through (yeah, ive been an O&A fan since i was 10) decided that day that i was gonna be a cop. I'm 32 now and have been on the job for 8 years....I didn't think it could ever be worse than 9/11. When Keith (a veteran of 9/11) is saying he feels bad for the guys on the job today, you know the situaaaaaaation is totally fucked. Mad respect for our brothers who came before us who ran into those towers, especially the ones that never came back. If no one else keeps their memory alive, it's gotta be the younger generations of cops and firefighters because this country (especially Gen Z) has shown they largely don't give a shit anymore.

    I will never forget that day. It was the most beautiful morning , stepping out of the subway at 47-50th Street and looking up at the sky and seeing a crystal blue sky and thinking what a beautiful morning. I got to work and a customer came in and said a plane had crashed into the world trade center and just like Dave I laughed like that's ridiculous like the towers are so big and fly into it. And even then I thought it was a small plane. Then there was a report that another plane crash into the towers and I thought that's weird maybe the smoke from the first plane you know cause that pilot to crash into the towers. And then we heard about DC and that's when I realized oh my God this is bad. My mom who's now a retired NYPD Sergeant was on vacation at the time and she was finally able to get a hold of me and she told me to go home right now she said she was getting my brother and sister from school and taking their grandparents house and I needed to come home. looking down third avenue you could see the smoke going across from downtown. It was like a scene out of Independence day with everybody sitting around the cars listen to 1010 wins and suddenly fighter jets flew over and I was in Rockefeller center and you could hear a pin drop because we didn't know if they were friendly planes or enemy. I walked through Central Park to get home cuz I lived in Harlem and I just remember how beautiful the day was people there are still people jogging in the park the birds are chirping and in the background you could just hear sirens everybody's just heading downtown flying downtown. When I got to my grandparents house I'm still thinking okay everything's fine, that the fires are just extinguished. Then I saw on the news that the towers had collapsed and I couldn't I couldn't process what I was seeing. That that night I listen to Ron and Fez and I called in because I was so scared and listening to them brought me comfort. I had just turned 21 and this is the first time in my life that I was afraid that I wouldn't wake up in the morning. The next few days in the city were sureal all the posters the missing persons posters that were up. The smell of the acrid smoke that came all the way up to Harlem the dust that was blowing around it that was the worst day ever. As a born-and-bred New Yorker my heart was broken. When you came back to New York you always looked at the skyline and you saw the world trade center and that's how you knew you were home and they were gone. But it wasn't just about the buildings it was about the end of Innocence and the amount of lives that were lost. The following weeks where you'd walk down the street and you turn a corner and there was a funeral for a firefighter and you just hear bagpipes and you would just start crying again. to this day I hate being down there even though I went to school down there and work down there. It's still sacred ground and it bothers me to see people taking selfies at the memorial like it near and fucking Disneyland looks like I just want to scream at them people died here this is not a happy place to be. Opie and Anthony and Ron and Fez really helps a lot of New Yorkers get through this tough time and I thank them for that. I will never forget God bless America.

    I'm from the UK and I was 16 when it happened, I had the day off school through illness and I watched the entire thing live on TV. The second plane hitting the tower was the most terrifying thing I have ever seen on TV, I was shaking for hours and I'm not someone who is easily frightened. And at one point the reporters thought that one of the planes was heading for the White House, christ

One big worry in all the confusion was that we lived in a port town and someone would fly one into the god-damned Superdome or some such shit. I'm mostly sure the Navy down here would have handled the plane over some outer parish, though, by that point.

I just thought it was a documentary about the last bombing at the trade centre. On the way my back mother called me into the loungeroom. Watching that second plane hit was terrifying; I didn't watch it after the first few times. What the responders did was above and beyond the call. But watching it I knew those terrorists had fucked up.

I lived in WV but there were those black helicopters flying all around on their way to either VA. and Pentagon or PA and the field crash.

      True. They’re not going to make a national holiday out of a day where America was attacked. We commemorate only the occasions that from a historical perspective that we celebrate (be it an important person like MLK, Lincoln, the birth of Jesus), or an event that positively advanced us as a nation (i.e., Independence Day). Not days that showed us at our most vulnerable.
