"Genuinely can't get over it having been do long! I was off school poorly, I remember my mum shouting up to me to come downstairs and we sat and watched the news, both gawping at the TV in disbelief as the second plane hit. I'll never forget it.

"I can tell you exactly where I was... I was on a Saturday night red eye flying back from New York to Newcastle, on the Monday was my first day in my new job working for American Express, and Tuesday was 9/11.... So at 2pm we get a call for anyone who was American to go into an office.... just told there had been an incident to give us a heads up.... 2.45 pm they turn off all incoming phones and we have a meeting where we get told exactly what was happening and there give people the option of going home,.... at 3.30pm they send everyone home! I remember getting a load of phone calls and trying to make a load of calls... thankfully I didn’t lose any relatives although a lot did work very close.... I did lose 6 very good friends who I still miss to this day.... and I always take 9/11 as a day off work!

"I was driving home from work with the radio on, i was in the village next to where i live. I was so shocked and shaken that i had to stop for a while before carrying on to home. I put the tv on when i got in just to see the 2nd plane hit the tower. I phoned work to tell them as one member of staff had a relative on holiday in New York at the time, thankfully they were ok. I then phoned my parents and told them something had happened and they should put the tv on, they just kept waffling and i still have no idea if they put the tv on." A horrific day for america and the world in general such a tragic loss of life, the terrorists achieved what they wanted that day It was a eye opener for me knowing such people existed and most certainly probabily still do. | |||

"19 years ago now, can you remember what you were doing? I was having a cuppa in my van and heard it on the radio at Manchester Housing Units." I worked for IBM at the time, we were on a conference call to colleagues in tower two. We heard the moment the plane hit and I will never forget that day.  | |||

I’d been working a nightshift and something woke me up. Ended up spending the day horrified watching the news unfold. Then back for another night shift

I was doing some tests for a apprenticeship and the tutor came in and said a plane had hit the towers and one had collapsed. It was beyond all comprehension at the time. The film 102 minutes that changed America is well worth a watch | |||
