toslow Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 Standing in my transmission shop, My buddy stopped in and told me a plane crashed into the tower. I had a tv in the waiting room and turned it on to watch. Then the second plane hit. Could not believe it was happening. was more like a movie. The world changed forever for me that day as every brown skinned person became a suspect and suspicious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at a trade show in Manchester. Everyone was out in the hotel lobby watching it live on Good Morning America. As soon as we saw the second plane hit we all knew that we were being attacked.

I was at work (Nuke plant) when my foreman received a call from his wife. We had no access to a T.V. nor a radio so everything came through her. We sat looking south across Lake Ontario and all said to each other, that really isn't all that far away. Needless to say it was a very somber day and hard to concentrate on our work. My son had just been born in June so I managed to call my wife as she was home with him and she told me she couldn't believe what she was seeing on T.V. Lots of misinformation, of course, at that time, and every bit my wife heard freaked her out a little bit more. Like her, we were also concerned working at a Nuke plant even though we were in Canada. We just assumed, in order to create the most damage/disruption, Nuke plants might also be a target? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soeaster Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 I remember it like it was yesterday. It was very surreal just watching it unfold on live TV. I slept late that day because I had to go register a truck that I had bought. My wife woke me up and told me that a plan hit WTC. Then, as we watched, the second plane hit. Went to the DMV and everyone was lined up in the hallway watching it on TV, including one of my best friends, a local cop. Drove to work (about 30 mins away) and listened the whole way. Got to work and everyone was glued to the TV. The next several months were the same. We were lucky to get 3-4 customers a day which was unusual at an HD Shop. Still difficult to believe, even after all that's happened. My kids were born (twins) almost a year later. I've always tried to show them what it was like, but they don't understand. They are both going into the fire service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Platinum Contributing Member ViperGTS/Z1 Posted September 11, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted September 11, 2022 Yeah pretty hard to forget when you knew someone who was at work in the 2nd tower when it collapsed. A friends sister. I always listen for her name when they read it. Allison Wildman. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Platinum Contributing Member Steve753 Posted September 11, 2022 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted September 11, 2022 Time sure flies. Hard to believe it happened over 2 decades ago. Conspiracy theorists think it was an inside job. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angry ginger Posted September 11, 2022 Share Posted September 11, 2022 i sit within about 50 feet as i did when it went down. we had a big event that evening and had to make a call on having or not. We actually had it and we all were at the dinner after golf watching the coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that has what to do with anything? Glad we are out of that shithole….shame we didn’t go after the country behind the attacks.
