911 - Never Forget.... why I shouldn't even be here
from Daily Grow with TODD Social Hosted by Todd Davis
9/11 defines my life in a nutshell. "On a sunny, cloudless Tuesday morning nineteen years ago, New York, the nation and the world were changed forever. We will never forget the nearly three thousand lives lost during the September 11th terrorist attacks." Gov. Andrew Cuomo spoke this morning at the 9/11 ceremony, Sept. 11, 2001 8:46 a.m. Hijackers crash American Airlines Flight 11 into the north tower. The 76 passengers and 11 crew members and hundreds inside the building are instantly killed. 9:03 a.m. Hijackers crash United Airlines Flight 175 into the south tower, killing 51 passengers, 9 crew members and an unknown number of people inside the building. 9:59 a.m. The south tower collapses in 10 seconds after burning for almost an hour. More than 800 civilians and first responders are killed. 10:28 a.m. The north tower collapses after burning for 102 minutes and more than 1,600 people are killed. During this time, I would have been between the two towers. But that day I didn't make my usual trip. the irony lives in my heartbeat every day. I never forget. Not the day. not the time. Not the loss and certainly not how we all came together.
