911 Memorial
September 11, 2001 the twin towers fell. Almost over 3,000 people died in the accident, people would jump out of the window during the burning and the destructions. Four passenger airliners were hijacked by 19 al-Qaeda terrorists so they could be flown into buildings in suicide attacks. Two of those planes, American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175, were crashed into the North and South towers, respectively, of the World Trade Center complex in New York City. Within two hours, both towers collapsed with debris and the resulting fires causing or collapsed completely. Bin Laden, who orchestrated the attacks, initially denied but later admitted involvement. Al Jazeera broadcast a statement by bin Laden on September 16, 2001, stating, "I stress that I have not carried out this act, which appears to have been carried out by individuals with their own motivation." In November 2001, U.S. forces recovered a videotape from a destroyed house in Jalalabad, Afghanistan.

My reaction when this happened I was shocked because a lot of people died and the people that were watching the tragedy were crying because maybe they had a family member in there or a friend. I wanted to cry because it was so sad watching all these people dying .
