Seeing "missing since 9/11/01" pop up next to some of these people is really eerie. Knowing they had only about 8 more months of life on Earth

That ending with that guy harmlessly falling, given that was a commercial, but still, just sends chills down my spine.

What hurts for me is seeing the dates recorded and all the smiles of the people working there and being interviewed. They genuinely enjoyed their jobs at the towers and they didn’t know what would happen just a few months later. I know this might sound sentimental but, they were beautiful towers. The whole complex was just breathtaking. I never got to visit it but I always saw it. My dad went there everyday to drop of documents at the cage at the lower level (before digital) and just hang out around the plaza or shopping areas before work. These days (of course with my family’s history with that day) he doesn’t ever want to visit the new tower because of everything that was lost and all the people he knew that worked there and loved their jobs. People that were my age (28) back then. I know this is all kind of incoherent but it’s just stuff I felt like I needed off my chest.

god, each time "Missing since 9/11/01" appears it gives me fucking chills

because if they were never found, it means they were obliterated completely
and that's the most haunting shit

This footage is very surreal knowing everything we see here in the interiors of the buildings were completely crushed and turned to dust.

The man at 5:00 is known to have helped many people escape at or right below the impact zone. They tried to send him down with others but he wanted to keep going up rescuing people. A true hero 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Everything they said about the twin towers, listening to it now that they’re gone…it just breaks your heart.

They were such beautiful buildings. Beautiful in their stark simplicity.

The pole vaulter commercial gave chills like someone falling from tower.

It's mind boggling to think that nothing of what we see in this video exists any more. It's all gone and not all that long after filming either.

I remember going to Grandma's house for Christmas as a child in the late sixties & passing by the WTC as it was being built. My Dad told us it was going to be the tallest building in America. I never forgot that image or that conversation!❤

5:00 The Face of a HERO! Frank Di Martini as well as some other members of his crew were credited with saving around 50 people on 9/11, he worked on the 88th floor of the north tower when the first plane stuck and helped as many people as he could, even helped carry a man down. God Bless this man!

8:22 Roko Camaj. I remember watching a documentary that featured his son describing his zest and bright personality. He was in the south tower on 9/11 and called his wife to reassure her that he was fine. Sadly, he didn’t make it. What a life he lived among the towers. RIP Roko.

6:30 mark " I was stunned by the size and scale of the machinery, it was comparable to that of an aircraft carrier"

Lost for 20 years today. Heres to all the people involved.

Not only is every "Missing since 9/11/01" absolutely haunting, but every second they refer to the World Trade Center in the present tense is another jarring reminder to me of what happened, that only a matter of months after this was filmed, no one would ever refer to the towers in present tense again

10:21 gives the chills, knowing that less than a year later people will be falling exactly like this.

Frank DeMartini the man who knew the towers from inside out. And the man who could have gotten out easily but instead risked his life to save others and helped them escape. That takes true courage. An incredible American and an incredible human being. RIP god bless.

I produced the pole vaulter commercial (for AT&T, for 1996 Olympics) footage used late in this documentary. I recall now later helping to get the documentary maker the footage.

At 4:55 we see Frank De Martini, who is credited with saving over 50 lives on 9/11. He died when the North Tower collapsed at 10:28 AM.
