I also feel this way my good fellow. But it makes you wonder what would you do if this happened to one of your families or dear dear loved ones. What would you do next? Do you sit there and cry or do you get out there and make sure it doesn't happen again,by either joining up with the military or reporting any information you have to the proper authorities.

The movie brought out a realization that I could die at anytime like those unforchanite people. I really think everyone should live their lives to the fullest because at anytime you could die, whether it be from a terrorist attack or not. Life is short.

I've heard that expression "live your life to the fullest" but people nowadays take it the wrong way and just do stupid things to make them end their lives quicker such as partying and doing drugs and not actually stop and think about what that means. For example appreciating the things in life and just having a full and good life.

Yes Stephen the dead who were victims of the attack do deserve at least some justice they were taken because extremists thought it'd be smart to start something with America the deceased did not deserve any pain they received and the jihadists deserve any pain they receive they decided to take their lives because of some stupid "fulfillment" in their life by killing thousands of Americans it is not right on any level to deny those people at least some form of justice

Just watching this film, blows my mind. It was such a tragedy, too many lives were lost of just innocent people going to work that day. As mentioned in the film, hopefully enough people in the south tower evacuated before the second plane hit. I can't imagine what it would be like to be in New York City that day. Since that happened, it has improved airport security. There were so many heroes on that plane that was headed towards the pentagon.

I knew that two planes crashed into the world trade center and killed many people, and after the first plane hit the second one hit too. Everyone was in shock they didnt know what had happened they started calling 911 right away. The feelings this film brings on me is shock how sick can you be to kill many people for no reason. Plus if you were driving the plane why would you kill yourself and many others for no reason.

I believe the attack on the Twin Towers were very tragic and has made America feel very vulnerable. At the same time I feel like people only say this because they are told to. A few days after 9/11 a monsoon killed thousands of people in India and nobody batted an eye. It shows that everyone has forgotten the significance of a human life. I truly feel bad for those who lost family in this incident. But for those who didn't if you ask them how their life was effected they will give you a selfish answer like "uhhhhhh we have to wait a little longer at airports."

Before I saw this video about 9/11 I know that it started out normal, just like any other day but suddenly it all changed Asa terrorist hijacked plane crashes into the first tower( the north tower). After a few minutes another plane crashed into he south tower. Inless than two hours they both fell. As the dust settled that had found out the death toll climbed in the thousands. This film had made me feel that people will try anything to get us to crumble under an attack on a well known place that will try to destroy

I know a lot about the twin towers being struck I still some wat remember seeing it at school in second grade ,... One of my friends dads left that building like a hour in a half before they got struck ... This film brought out a bad impression on both our government n terrorists bcuz at that time u.s citizens were scared for there life's airports became more secure but more scary, people were wondering if our government cud even protect us because its different when crazy things happen outside the country but 9/11 wasn't it was in one state over and than the pentagon was struck who new wat else was gonna happen

Before watching this video, I did know most of the stuff in it about 9/11, however I didn’t know that the towers were also attacked in 1993. It’s eye opening to hear how those living in New York at the time reacted. I couldn’t imagine what they had been feeling, both those trapped in the twin towers and those who lost loved ones because of what happened . Even those who got out and survived the attack are scarred for the rest of their lives. What happened that day changed the country forever. It’s just really sad and awful to see how many people lost their lives just because of a hate fueled act of terrorism.
