911
Moment of piece…
     This was a day that America didn’t knew what was coming. Tragedy, death, and terror were all over the streets of New York with many losing their lives. It was a nice morning, everyone drinking their coffee on their way to work, people doing their businesses, and others who stayed home taking care of kids didn’t knew what was coming. Around 8:46 am, the American Airlines Flight 11 had crashed into the Northern side façade of the World Trade Center’s North Tower. Soon around 9:03 am, American Airlines Flight 77 had crashed in the into the southern façade of the World Trade Center’s South Tower. Major destruction occurred around 9:59 when the South Tower couldn’t stand, and just completely collapsed. After burning for almost 56 minutes, the South Tower fell to ruins, crashing down on people who were still in there. Soon to follow was the North Tower, which approximately collapsed around 10:28 am after burning for 102 minutes. Unfortunately, those who were still waiting for a direction or response in the North Tower, had probably perished in the debris. As dust and debris were every were, firefighters were recovering survivors and helping them aid them.

     Many couldn’t get their way through and so about 2,996 people had perished in the collapsed. Some people died instantly when the planes crashed. Others died of extreme smoke and heat.  Everyone who jumped knew there was no way they could survive. They were going to die one way or another; they chose the one they thought was less painful. Some jumpers would have been hit by flying debris knocking them unconscious, others would have died instantaneously on impact. Painlessly. R.I.P for those 2996 people who had died.
