He died administering last rights at the site?

Unbelievable. So many stories of heroism from that day, it makes me shudder.

He’s victim 0001. Not the first to die obviously but first to die on the ground.
Short 15 minute piece on his life. He was openly gay and way ahead of the curve in NYC doing funerals for AIDS patients long before it was understood. But his part in the story of that day is just heartbreaking.

Fiddy just throwing his sponsors hashtags into his 9/11 tweet.
Stay classy fella.

Oh, it's that time of year again when I spend too much time watching 9/11 videos on YT.

The videos of people wandering around NYC on the day of the attack are inexplicably captivating to me, I hadn't seen this one before:

(Yes, it's a horrifying tragedy, but guy nonchalantly munching on a sandwich at 17:36 is kind of funny.)

It’s a good thing the Giants weren’t in that parlay.

Why didn’t this clairvoyant warn us?

Crazy how everyone was in a cautious state of "what is happening?". We didn't have iPhones or Twitter ,etc.

Still haunting 22 years later.

I was working at a government superfund site. The CRT tv/cart in the lunchroom was on a news station. At first someone mentioned they think a Cessna type plane accidentally flew into the tower. Then we watched everything unfold in that lunchroom. We got the word an hour or so later we were being shut down and to go home.

Also, I got married 12 days after 9/11.
