9/11 - Ten years it's been since it happened.

[Ako Si Jamie]

In a couple of weeks anyhow. Doesn't seem like ten years. I was in the post office at the time and heard people talking about a plane crashing into the towers. Didn't really believe it at first until I saw it on TV.

I was in Japan at the time, I remember watching it on the news for hours and hours. Just could not stop myself. Very emotional time.
Unbelievable world changing event, and certainly doesn't seem like 10 years ago

I was sitting in our house in the Phils watching CNN, when suddenly it all started to happen on-screen...second plane hitting was 'live', and then of course the buildings coming down.

The most shocking and riveting experience of my life.

A terrible tragedy for all concerned.

...second plane hitting was 'live'........

I can vividly remember seeing that also. I was completely bewildered about what was going on, I recall that even the reporter at the time didn't seem to know .

[grahamw48]

Yes, at first it was thought that maybe a 'light' plane had hit the first building, and then they got the news teams there and the awful truth began to unfold. :NoNo:

I was watching At The Races when the presenter said "If anyone is still watching with what's going on in America.. Why???" :Erm: ...... so I switched to Sky News :omg::omg::omg: :NoNo:

[stevewool]

there was a thread started something about amazing news in our lives, and this was mentioned by all, all day long just watching such a sad sad time for all the people that was there

I was in a teapot factory in Devon, I had day off work because it was my ex's (:voodoo:) birthday, and while in the cafe they had the tv on and it was just one rolling story. Shocking to watch with so much tragic loss of life, but even though we knew so many were perishing, we had to keep watching. Human nature i suppose.
