    I worked on the 89th Floor of the South Tower from February 2000 until 9/11/01. Was on the 65th Floor in the stairwell when the second plane struck.

    Another thing you forgot to mention, was that the North Tower had an actual 110th floor, where as the South Tower's 110th floor was considered the outside Observation Deck.

    I still can’t get over the fact that these two towers are gone 🤦🏾‍♂️😭

    I grew up with the WTC. They opened shortly before I was born in 1973. I visited them multiple times as a kid (with family, friends, school field trips), I had my high school graduation celebration dinner at Windows on The World in 1991, a couple of years before the 93' bombing. I was up in Western Massachusetts in college during the 93' bombing when it occured, but my family was down in NYC. I had moved back to NYC for grad school in 1999 though, so I was unfortunately in Brooklyn for 9/11. I had instinctively AVOIDED the WTC after the 93' bombing, because they were just such OBVIOUS targets. I was uneasy because I had my suspicions about whether or not something else would occur there. A childhood friend of mine had started working on the 74th floor in the South Tower back in 1997, & I feared for her safety. She and I had lunch in March of 2001 in the underground mall and then went for a stroll in Tobin Plaza, about six months before the attacks. That's the LAST time I ever visited the WTC as it was. #NeverForget
  • I love watching your Twin Towers videos, I know more about them now than I did when they were still standing and a few years post 9/11. I always loved the Twin Towers, I was upset when the bombing of 1993 happened but was so glad that the North Tower pulled through and survived another 8 years, then 9/11 happened destroying both towers which I was so heartbroken.I'll never forget that day when I came home from work, turned on my old CRT TV and saw the Towers in a bad way before collapsing for the first time. You, many other 9/11 documentary channels, WTC Vaporwave videos and just general footage on the Twin Towers keep the memory alive on how great these towers were. Although the current One World Trade Center looks nice, I still prefer the old Twin Towers as they looked magnificent. Rest in Peace to all victims of those who died on that awful day, keep posting these lovely Twin Tower videos and most importantly, never forget 😥🏢🙏

  • @JBoo
    I really miss the towers and the people within
  • @superapple4ever
    Love your videos! Please don’t ever stop. You’re the only one that makes it kind of content.
  • @bee-yq3wb
    Love these videos, hope you never stop them. I'm a huge twin towers nerd 🤓
  • @Lucy0809
    Very grateful you continue to discuss the towers
  • @davidslife989
    LOVE what your channel is doing! Keep up the GRET vids. Also is there ANYTHING about the towers you don't know?
  • @voiceofjeff
    Excellent videos. Thanks for your research and attention to detail. Are there any pictures or video of the 110th floor of WTC1 that housed the television transmitters? That entire floor was nothing but facilities for NY television stations and that's where all the transmitters were located. I'd love to see a video dedicated to the detail of that particular floor, what was up there, the people who worked up there, and how they were laid out. Thanks again for your videos!

    To this day, I am sad I didn’t get to see the WTC before it was destroyed. Those of you who have seen or visited them are so lucky. I have always wondered why the hijackers chose 9/11 as the date to do this horrific act…was it intentional given it’s the same numbers as our emergency phone number and the fact the ‘11’ is shaped like the towers?
  • @d.k.borelli8267
    there must be something floating in the air lately, it seems like i am not the only one obsessed with the twin towers as of lately. i don't know what it is, but i have been eager to learn more about what happened that day.
  • @jandrew1994
    The cores and stairwells being located in the middle instead of the corners like most every other building was an enormous design (safety) flaw that ended up costing the lives of probably a couple thousand. If there had been stairs in the four corners instead of three all located near the core, everyone in, say, Cantor Fitzgerald likely would have survived instead of died; among many others.
  • @jshmeek5900
    I don't know if anyone else has mentioned it yet, but there was a cafeteria on the 44th floor (the lower sky lobby) of the North Tower. I've never been able to find photos of it, but there are some photos of the menu out there. It was called Skydive.
  • @athos1974
    Looking down from the South Tower observation floor windows, trucks were smaller than M&M's, and cars were the size of dots. Too high up to see any people walking on the street. The elevator took awhile to reach the top. The lobby had very wide concourses with lots of natural light. Standing at the foot of the towers made you feel small and insignificant. I have never gone back to the memorial site. I want to remember them as they were the last time I was there.
  • @ModelSkyscrapers
