  1. I remember being 13 and in Home Economics for first period class at school and our principal came on over the intercom and said 'America may be under attack, we'll update you as the day goes on and initially encouraged all in building to turn on the TVs to watch the news as it unfolds.'

    TV in the room was flicked on. We all were watching the smoldering fire on the North tower live feed when a plane came in off screen and hit the South tower. We were stunned. Whole school watched it happen. TVs were turned off and we went about our normal school day. I had frozen pudding pops I made the day before in Home Ec.

    I do still think about that morning. Such a tremendous loss of life. It hurts.

  2. I gotta say I really appreciate the exclusion of the footage of those who leaped from the towers. I was just under 4 years old when this happened, and seeing that footage on the news, a thing beyond any comprehension of mine, really left a scar on my mind ever since.

  3. How come none of these 9/11 documentaries address Osama bin Laden's denial of being responsible for the attacks and the Taliban, to this day, saying that the United States never produced their proof of his involvement? This is not a defense for a terrorist at all, but it's worth looking into.

  4. I think we all remember where we were during those tragic hours. It still hits a nerve now and always will. An insighting and dignified episode Simon. Your content across all of your channels is brilliant.

  5. I was in college, and had just stayed up all night working on something and was finally heading for bed when I buddy of mine in Sweden messaged me on ICQ and said "dude, a place just crashed into the WTC!" I turned on the news… and got to watch the second crash happen and realized that this was no mistake, that some f'ing wacko nutjob had done this intentionally. Needless to say, it was a long time before I ever got to sleep.

  6. I realize that it could just be the unintentional side effect of this video potentially being put together some time ago and just released now… but I appreciated that it ended with Simon getting up and walking away, instead with the end credits we've had on newer videos. Nothing wrong with the credits but here it just felt… more appropriate with the walking away at the end…

  7. 9/11 the event that killed the soul of the United States forever, JFK assassination which killed the heart, COVID the event that killed the brain, and 1913 the event which killed the sustainability…
    The United States is dead 1776-2020.

  8. George W said it best.
    "The pictures of airplanes flying into
    buildings, fires burning, huge structures
    collapsing have filled us with disbelief, terrible sadness, and a quiet, unyielding anger.
    These acts of mass murder were intended
    to frighten our Nation into chaos and retreat, but they have failed."

  10. I lived in northern NJ from 1997-99. I visited Manhattan frequently during this time and my commute frequently took me through the subterranean mall at WTC to the subway stations. I knew it like the back of my hand. And when friends visited, we always took them to the bar at Windows on the World restaurant where they would marvel at the views. So the attack was personal to me as it involved a beloved, well known, and familiar place. Prayers for all of those who lost their lives and the families and friends left behind.

  11. This subject was a bad idea. You do great work but there are so many lies connected to this day that you cannot dictate the official narrative without engaging in them. My father was there, he never saw a single plane and swears everything toppled from explosions. Most of America no longer believes "the narrative". We know it was our own government with the help of a few other countries, notably Israel. You just poor salt on the wounds of the people that were there or did their research. "Why would your own government do such a thing?" you ask- The answer is to create the surveillance state we all live in today. Without 9/11 they couldn't foment fear in to the hearts of a country and the pandemic would never have happened either. It started a planned domino effect like we have never seen and some refuse to look at. Wake up, pay attention and ask questions or these false flags will continue to happen.

  12. It happened in the middle of the night here in Australia. I was home sick from school and it was the first thing I saw when I got out of bed. I was 13. Watching this now I didn't expect to get as emotional as I did. I still remember the pre-9/11 world and this changed everything.

  13. I was 6 and it was a normal day in elementary school. It was only when I got home that I noticed the towers had already collapsed, as my mom had the TV turned on all day.

  14. I can`t believe that so many actually fell for the `official narrative` on 9/11.
    Anyone in any doubt as to the real truth, need look no further than Zeitgeist-The Movie (2007) by Peter Joseph, and Fahrenheit 9/11 (2004) by Michael Moore.
    Millions of you need to give your heads a wobble.
    Truth will set you free.
    Peace out, GG.

  15. The worst part is that what the terrorists did achieved nothing but more death and destruction.

    It sparked hatred for Islam and people of middle-eastern descent. It caused the war in Afghanistan. It caused the invasion of Iraq.

    It killed countless people from all sides and achieved nothing but more death as destruction.

  16. The United States of America is still the strongest, mightiest and most powerful country in the world 🌎 despite the tragic events that transpired since 9/11. The global economic recession in 2008, the costly wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, the COVID-19 pandemic that claimed 1.1 million Americans… America is here to stay in her Superpower status!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

  17. I was in elementary school and lived down the street from the military base and subsequently, the Petagon. My mom picked me up from school before lockdown. I mostly have flashes of impressions form that day: the sound of jets, the news broadcast, parents' fear, and the radio playing the voices of people calling from the scene. No one explained much beyond the basics, and It wasn't taught in school, even though it happened less than a mile away. Even so, that day changed everything. For years there was a scar on the Pentagon, first a tarp, then stones that didn't quite match. Across the way, defenses were installed on the mall in case of further attacks.

  18. I remember them immediately taking us back home from school. 9am is when my school started but we got there via bus long before.
    I remember my mom had the news on and I saw the towers burning. I remember thinking, “wow, what hit the World Trades”?Even our Sirens at Three Mile Island were blaring all morning.
    I was living in Harrisburg PA at the time and I was 9 years old. My Uncle..lived in New York City.

  19. Thank you for this. I was 18 when it happened, and living in Minnesota, far away from New York. I remember every detail of that day vividly. The whole world was American for a short time.

  20. I was in the Army at the time. When this happened, I rushed getting ready and left for flight operations. I told my mother, who took care of my child, that I didn't know when I'd be back or for how long. I fully expected deployment. My sister and her friends at CMU (Pittsburgh PA area) worried that the university might be a target due to it's work with the DOD.

  21. Considering what the americans did in Korea, Vietnam and other parts of the world that they will never admit too, I don't feel any sympathy for those affect on the 11th of November. america will never admit to the war crimes they have committed against innocent civilian populations even to this day. They are ignorant to their own wrong doings and blame the rest of the world when something happens.

  22. As a firefighter I know I would do the same I remember watching a documentary of a surging firefighter he even said “after the first tower fell, we knew what was going to happen if we went up the stairs but we knew that if we didn’t try, we didn’t do our job”

    It hit hard cause it made me remember why I became a firefighter
