10 years since 9/11

In 23 days it will be the 10 year anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon. I will continue to highlight those events of 2001.





Moments after the South Tower fell, Chief J. Pfeifer (inside of North Tower) said on the radio the order to all firemen, at least twice, "Evacuate the building".





The United Nations building evacuatest 10:13 AM EST, including 4,700 people from the headquarters building and 7,000 total from UNICEF and U.N. development programs.



In Washington, the State Department and Justice Department are evacuated, along with the World Bank.







All inbound flight traffic destined for the United States is ordered to be diverted to Canada.









The World Trade Center's north tower collapses at 10:28 AM EST from the top down, falling in upon itself and generating a tremendous cloud of debris and smoke. Hundreds of innocent lives, and lives of the heroes who tried to save them are lost. The New York skyline is forever changed.
