Everyone here was 3 years old or hadn't been born yet
I was in a school and everyone was just glued to the tv screen.
We just sat there watching.
I was in high school. Everyone was in the library watching the news on a tube television on one of the roll out carts. We got sent home early.
I was in the 5th grade, a teacher turned on the tv to show us the live feed and we saw the 2nd plane hit. My dad came and got me shortly after
sunny, warm, uneventful.
started 9th grade in Ontario, Canada in Sep. 2001.
heard the news of terrorist attacks in nyc while going to grab pizza for lunch (11am-ish), everyone thought there were tens of planes ready to attack all over the US.
when the towers went down, I remember all of the estimates on TV being around 30,000 to 50,000 dead, martial law was expected
stock markets went down a lot obviously
other than that, no one gave a shit, except kids got sent home form school early tat day.
Nah dude I was a teenager damn I wonder if I Will ever witness a happening again in my life of such proportions
a workmate said a plane crashed into one of the towers, I said 'its muslims'.
He called me a racist.
My dad was working in Nintendo and I was in a secret military complex making a time machine.
I saw it on TV before I went to school. It was surreal. All we did at school was watch the news.
You'd think the world was ending. You seen two of the most iconic buildings on the New York skyline literally reduced to nothing. Literally exploding hundreds of feet outwards to fucking dust.
The ensuing panic and the march to absolute fucking war. When those fuckers were rolling into Baghdad they had vengeance on their minds. You seen the entire media literally light up with absolute hate and disdain for Muslims.
>half the world on lockdown
>still not a happening
Dumb swede
I was in high school and saw the news when i got home. At first didn't took it seriously, but after seeing news coverages, it dawned me and knew something will change in US.

the night before
It happened at launch time in Spain, during news. They just connected and I remembered watching it live.
I still think coronavirus is a biggest happening.
zoom zoom
Nah, I was 4 myself.

A lot of plans went ahead that day.
I was in college. It was a pretty nice day. I heard it live on the radio as I was driving to class. Almost drove off a bridge in shock.
A fucking flu is not a happening. Invisible happenings are worthless
based kids.
I was in 12th grade, algebra 2 class.
My school is a suburb of DC. Most of my class mates parents worked in DC, and a few had parents at the pentagon. Everyone was allowed to leave early if your parents came and got you.
They rolled the CRTs into every class and we watched live. It was weird because class cycles were still happening. So very 45 minutes we had to get up and go to next class but it was no class just the tv.
Driving home on RT 7, was eerily weird. There was almost no traffic. And for a highway with a cop every 4 miles, there was no cops at all. No one was on the road. It was weird. I remember flooring it in my mom’s 98 Camry and hitting 100mph just because I could without consequence.
After graduating hs, I received a ROTC scholarship, commissioned and found my self in Iraq in 2006-2009, then to afghanistan 2009-2012.
Fun times user.
sunny
It was surreal. I jumped in my car and went to my buddies house and pounded on his door till he woke up. By the time we got back to my house, my mom was freaking out because the second plane had hit. We spent the morning calling family that worked in large buildings, pulled little bro and sis from school, and waited for more attacks. Every dude I knew was basically foaming at the mouth to go to war.
Like bags of sand.
Car crashes went down 80% that day: Deaths for the year were down 26%
Boring like any other day. Was playing this game called Subspace(continuum) before school. Dad calls me into living room to watch it. Go to school and watch it on TV while teachers have normie freakouts. Get out early and go home to keep playing vidya.
Yeah left class early - parents called, mom wanted me to get my little sister out of school. Did that, then went and filled all the cars up to the top and topped off extra gas cans.
I logged on IRC and checked if everyone I knew was fine.
it was nice
>You seen the entire media literally light up with absolute hate and disdain for Muslims.
Don't fully agree. There certainly was a rallying effect, but elements of the media, as soon as a few days after the bombings, were giving air time to do-gooder bedwetters about how islam isn't to blame and putting wreaths on some random sandnigger imam's head.
Outside media, Islamic dick sucking started very very soon after 9/11, and ramped up among lefties especially after the war in iraq because they opposed the war. The harder left gave cover to to muslim terrorists everywhere because "buh-buh-but what about christianity" and gave up any pretense they had to allow free speech, because since the soviet union failed, they needed a hot new revolutionary game in town to take down the patriarchal west.
It sucked. My cousin worked downtown and we had no idea where she was because phones weren’t working. She ended up walking barefoot to greenpoint brooklyn. It took me 3 hours to get to her apartment - 5 miles. She hot there a few minutes before i did.
Dancing israelis be damned.
I was in geometry class when it happened. The resident hottie history teacher came bursting through the door telling our teacher to turn the tv on. She said the world was about to change. We all watched the second plane hit live. It was surreal and I don’t think any of the students realized how bad it was about to get. 3 years later I enlisted into the Marine Corps because I bought into the neocon bullshit.
i was 15 5 days before
I was second in command at a coastal USCG SAR Station on the east coast. We all knew it was terrorism immediately. We went into lockdown and recalled the the crew that was off for 48 hours (the crews worked 48 on 48 off during the week and 72 on 72 off over the weekends, pretty sweet). The next day all of our reservists had been recalled to active duty and we were providing 24/7 waterside security for a nearby liquid natural gas facility that could vaporize a 6 mile radius if bombed. Good times.
Remember it was W that gave us "Religion of Peace"
Ive answered this thread so many times i will instead explain what i wore that day
>white zombie teeshirt
>jnco jorts
>converse 1 stars
I was 10 on the west coast so basically it was already over by the time I got up for school.
I was in college
I was working a tech job in Atlanta, and they let us all go home to work after the 2nd plane hit and everyone started realizing this was an attack and not an accident. I had to drive right past CNN and Coca-Cola and my ass was clenched wondering if those were about to blow up in front of me. Even then it was weird.....like I get the symbolism of hitting the towers and pentago, but I was thinking if they flew a plane into Boulder dam or even the dam in Georgia at Lake Lanier, the death toll and destruction would have been FAR worse. (Atlanta would cease to exist without Lake Lanier. And imagine what the loss of the Boulder dam would do). So I thought this attack was "odd" in so many ways, way before we knew about the Jewry involved. Also, I DISTINCTLY remember a firefighter saying that they decided to "take down" building 7, though I can't find footage of that anywhere. Basically admitting they blew it on purpose. And again, I was thinking that would take WEEKS of preparation, you can't just but some blocks of explosives at the four corners and take a building down. But that's what the dude said. It was pretty wack from the very start.
this is the lamest happening of all time
It would have been 13:46 here. I was in school. Came home, saw it on the tv. Thought "what film is this"
Went upstairs and played ps1
I was 32 at the time
Yep saw that too. A PR effort to try to convince muslims that the GWOT was only about killing terrorists, not muslims.
Ok boomer
I was cooming all day long and i was shoving bananas up my ass to stymulate my g point.
I spent the day stoned as fuck in Amsterdam coffee shops.
nofucksweregiventhatday.jpg
it felt like you were dreaming - this couldn't be happening
Faggot fucking zoomer you probably weren’t even a twinkle in your dads eye lmao
Whatever zoomer
This old SA thread from the time of the attack is a great little window into how people felt at the time it happened.
Speak for yourself. It was the week before my 36th birthday.
>inb4 huRR DuRR uR oLd
Fuck off, faggot. This is Yas Forums.
I was 18, my Mom came in and woke me up screaming that a plane had hit the WTC but that my Uncle was okay (he worked in South Tower). I was confused, got up went out to the living room and saw the second plane hit (south tower). I could write a lot of long posts about that day... but the world was never the same. Truly. it was a better world on 9/10/01.
playing tibia,some mutts die very far from me because they like to jump from towers idk why,play tibia,go sleep.
pretty good day if you ask me
Did you kill any towelheads?
Did you uncle died or had he left before the South tower got hit?
I was 20
Massive refugee crisis, flooding your country with young muslim and african men. EVERYTHING IS FINE!
Nah, I had graduated high school in 2000. After dicking around at community college for a few semesters and then partying for awhile I had enlisted while joking that "WW3 is going to start now that I signed the papers".
I woke up at my parents house on a tuesday morning, nobody else home, turned on the TV tube, and it was after the first plane hit and before the second.
Oddly, I had just visited NYC a few months prior including the WTC, only time I have ever been there.
Those were the days
Our social studies teacher teared up as he announced to the class what happened, TVs were limited but on in the school
2996 people dead, how long has it been 2996 3 hours? 4 hours?
I watched it on tv and I didn't understand what the fuck was happening.
it was on every tv channel in germany.
I was maybe 10 years old but already felt there is something off
Was in AV class in HS, so we were already watching tv when the news broke. Principal came on the intercom about 20 minutes later.
We weren't allowed to leave without a parent picking you up, but I just walked home since I lived a mile from home. I remember seeing the plane hit the second tower on TV. Took me a minute to process and looking back, I realized how innocent I was.
To clarify, I was on delayed enlistment. I never even ended up deploying (pogue), although a high school friend died in Iraq. Coronavirus is a bigger happening than 9/11 even though 9/11 was more dramatic. Government is going to get a LOT more mileage out of CV, none of our lives will ever be the same, every change will be for the worse. Nobody is doing anything to stop it.
Was singing happy birthday m8. Worst birthday ever.
Finished writing a paper at 4 in the morning... slept in.... woke up at 12:30... dad called... WTC was rubble.
Watched TV until 10 the next morning. Forgot to eat.
Stopped classes and went to where ever the tv was to watch it unfold
Chaotic, somber, weird. We were having some stupid beef with the French at the time, and some people seriously thought we made one too many jokes at their expense and they got butt hurt and attacked us. It was weird watching TV at the time. It was weird seeing a TV screen of a plane flying behind the news reporter crashing into a building "real time" while they were still talking about the first plane.
>9yo
>was at primary school
>teachers suddenly told to assemble leaving classrooms alone
>get picked up by parents 2 hours earlier than usual
>pretty pumped since this never happens
>get home
>no cartoons only news all day in every channel
>day ends up being gay and boring cause most of my friends at the time had family in the US and they were scared
didn't really understand why we were meant to care since this was happening so far away but a few family members fell in deep economic hardship since they used to work for american pensioners who went back to the US after it happened
you're going to meme us into boomers and you won't like it when that happens you little stupid shit
I wasent born yet but I found out from edgy 2013 ifunny memes and when I was playing minecraft I asked my sister what was 9/11 she told me so I built a tower in minecraft and blew it up with TNT
I was in Spanish class when I heard about it. 10th grade. Elliot Fitch told me terrorists hit a building. I had no idea what the fuck he was talking about. Then we saw the library tv. A lot of fucking smoke out of this really tall building. Going back in for the between classes, learning about towers falling. Headmaster over the intercom telling us we’re monitoring the situation. Home with parents. Quick prayer and then dinner. Average day for me, but also the worst fucking day. 9/11 ruined everything. Fuck those terrorists pieces of shit. Fuck em all.
Sloppy job.
Its was a school day. Shit was lame.
You wouldn't believe...
It was on tv.
I thought it was an accident first.
Well he was right it was jews you racist lol
So what is your opinion on long lasting repercussions of the CV?
Thousands dying every day, world economy crashing, governments locking half the planet in there homes. But it's not happening.
Leaving the house on the morning for school. See tv. 2 planes have already hit. Suspected terror. Remember that a few years back America was blowing up brown ppl in the desert by the hundreds and starving the masses thru embargoes. Realize I've been blankly staring at the tv just thinking about how this is a bad attempt at eye for an eye. Superbowl bomb would have been better and easier. Heck u could do all the morning games on Sunday at the same time and it would still be easier than hijacking planes. Oh shit I gotta go to school
Also spent a long time reading
alt.conspiracy
Most Anons agreed Osama Bin Laden though there were 'muh inside job' retards the moment it started.
incredibly based
One of the best days of my life... to see the American empire hit badly was orgasmic.

>dad texts me, "it's a crazy world huh?"
>i reply "you have no idea"
I thought they were talking about the twin towers in richmond VA
i was in high school, we all got stoned as fuck at the bus stop like usual, and sometime around 2nd or 3rd period i forget they turned the TV's on and we all watched the news until someone realized people were jumping out of the windows. then they sent us home and all the kids at the bus stop got even more stoned and we rode bikes around our neighborhood and in our woods. good day good times
lots of talking at first, then silence, everyone glued to the tv, if you lived in NY every plane buzz overhead for the next few months made people quiet.
Awesome
I got to see zog kill its own and drag the nation into a stupid war for israel
Both sides deserve pain
I was in bed with two girls that morning too
It was in the afternoon. I was riding my bike home from school in the rain. Me and my older sister watched a VHS recording of "Alien". When we switched casettes the news came on showing the towers collapsing. I got excited and phoned my friend. Next day in school I remember all the boys being excited because of the happening, the girls and female teachers were crying.
Pretty darn excellent. It was afternoon though so whole family was home in front of the TV and cheering when the buildings came down. Before that my babushka was clapping hands and whistling whenever some fat Mutt jumped from the building. I think it was the best day of my life
Stop beleiving all memes dumb Mutt. Sweden is doing much better than your shithole. Literally all White American women take black dicks. Why you not stop it? Do you like it? fucking cuck!
Stfu i was 30 and with 3 small children and got gaslighted into wanting to murder the universe
It started out cool. But a civilian witnessed me and my buddies filming and celebrating the attack on WTC and we got arrested that afternoon.
I was a senior in HS and it was a beautiful day so me and friend thought about skipping school but decided to skip after lunch and we did and no one noticed.
I was nine. I was one of the last kids to get picked up by the bus in a rural area so I was in my house a bit longer than the rest of the kids on the bus, my parents were acting all concerned looking at the TV. said that the "twin towers got blown up" or something along those lines. told people on the bus and one kid adamantly decided I was making things up. a couple hours into the school day we hear the official announcement and hear that we're all going to be taken home. I turned to that kid with a big fucking grin on my face because I was right and he was wrong.
I remember that fox aired that thing about the dancing isrealis.
Awesome, school was cancelled and my grandma made some good snacks and let me watch the news. Shit was comfy
9/11 was an inside job to justify the wars in the middle east and that's the only explanation that makes sense
Everyone at work using it as an excuse to not do their fucking jobs,
Nah, in high school
I bought into it too.
What was the morning of pic related like?
Was sitting infront of the tv after school
Speak for your self faggot i Remember it

Old fag here (35 years old). Living in Oregon at the time. Dad wakes me up and said plane crashed in New York. Go to school and teachers are crying about people jumping out of buildings. No school for like a week or two.
I was 1 years old. So I was shitting in my diapers probably watching the tv with my mom

I didnt understand why my teachers were freaking out but they made us watch it on tv all day. We got to leave early i think. I thought that was cool. Still dont care because Bush did it
