What was watching 9/11 happen live like?

At first you wondered if it was an accident, because they didn't have a video of the first airplane hitting.
then the second one hit...
then both building collapsed.
Then you wondered if you should just stay home or go to work.
Then we spend trillions killing a million Iraqis, who had nothing to do with it.
Then you hear about the dancing Jews...

I was 9 when it happened. I remember all the teachers watching it on a TV in the assembly hall. When I got home from school, my nan explained to me what was happening. I remember everything about that day. Even at that early age, I knew the world would change forever.

Really fucking weird everyone I know expected WW3 to begin. Some schools shut on the day and the students were actually told WW3 had begun. Not sure I fully comprehended it at the time not like I do now for sure. It changed so much the world seemed pretty chill before then everyone was getting along fine, racial tensions were low, though I probably have some extent of rose tinted glasses on me I know shit was not as fucked up as it is now 100%

Kind of surreal. Like "oh wow, that's happening, huh"

I was 13 at the time. In CA so it wasn't like it felt like there was an imminent threat.

It sucked. You knew nothing would be the same again.

it was like
rekt lmao just

I was too young to understand it was surreal. I was in school while it was on tv. The first plane had already hit. Then all of sudden the second plane hit.

It was insane because we did absolutely no work for weeks after.

Was around 9-11 so I don’t remember much
Fell over twice during break time though, guy threw something in my eyes

Exciting.

Idk I was 3 years old in 2001. I don't know did anyone of my family even watched it live, i just know my father bought some newspapers featuring the towers burning. I hate it when I lost the newspapers somewhere

I was in the tower on 911. I will never forget that day. I was having breakfast in my cubicle - standard Wednesday morning. Maybe it was Tuesday or some other day, not too sure. I was having french toast, bacon, sausage, eggs, and a side of toast with butter. I also had some fresh fruit. I washed it down with OJ and some coffee. I also had a glass of ice water. I was dipping the sausage in maple syrup - the good kind I would bring from home, not the Aunt Jamama bullshit. I got up mid meal to stretch my stomach out and I noticed a large bird or something outside the window. I walked closer to the window and realized that it was not a bird. It was actually a plane.

At first I didn't believe it. Then I did believe it and did my best to slip out quietly so as not to cause a commotion. I didn't want others to panic. Nice and calmly, I stepped into the elevator. I made it down and out onto the street and looked up and the plane flew straight into my floor and exploded.

I often think about that breakfast. I don't feel right having it anymore because it was my daily work breakfast and something of a ritual and I figure that ritual ended along with the lives of all my friends and coworkers on 911. But I never felt right about leaving it at my desk either.

I was 20 watching it in the breakroom when the second one hit. Then went back to cold calling folks for sales.

NYer here. Long Island. I saw a clip of smoke coming from the towers after 2nd period and we kept on with the school day. During 7th period we went to the library to watch the news. .

Data mining thread to ascertain the average age of the board by a 1pbtid memeflag. Please fuck off.

I was like 15 and was celebrating my sister's birthday (which is on 9/11). When it happened on live tv everybody went silent and she asked if her birthday is cancelled.
But couple of yanks will not be able to cancel my little sister's birthday, so we turned off the tv and ate cake.
The end.

People were in shock because, at least as Americans, their glass palace of illusions had been shattered, the bubble of false reality that we had been living in had been popped. It went from shock and confusion when it happened to a sobering moment of contemplation after, then the media and politicians got to work plotting a false narrative and whipping everyone into patriotism and war. Look at the cultural shift in America at the time, even just in music—depressing post-punk revivalism, “woke” anti-neocon folk punk, sentimental Americana country—the R&B and Pop built around consumerism instantly fell off.

Unironically was watching an episode of Lupin III (Green Jacket) in my room the moment it happened.

>was around 9-11

I was 20, playing magic the gathering with friends. Then some faggot came in and said there was a terror attack on America. He said they deserved it and people were jumping out of burning buildings on live TV. I told him he was a nigger and went home. Watched the whole thing live on TV. My mom was cooking and annoyed I was constantly watching CNN, wich was good back then. It felt strange. As if you knew there was going to be war. Feels a bit like now, actually. War is brewing.

i was in third grade. it looked from every angle that the building was in free fall speed.

9/11 unironically changed my life by making me a massive conspiracy theorist. it's why i started doing my own research. and it's why i see that this plandemic is being used in the same way.

I was 18. The world was fantastic before 9/11. Since then it’s gone to complete shit.

Depends on how close you were.

Awful. I got home from school after the second plan had already hit but before the Pentagon was attacked. Watched both towers collapse. The world changed in the blink of an eye.

pretty depressing, panic, confusion

was watching Sky News live when the second plane hit (heard the news on the radio I guess for the first plane, so put on the TV)

I was a kid and I was playing Command and Conquer after the shcool that day. I didn't realize how bad the situation was

12 years old me reaction

>"new york!?T-THATS...DRUMPFS CITY!!!ORANGEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

I was 20 living in a share house. It was fucking bizarre. There was dead silence with the 5 of us watching the tv not saying a word

It was kinda fun tbqh, got boring here and there but i enjoyed the suspense and finally... I was 13

I was on one of the flights. My carry on was a parachute. I jumped out of the plane before impact, the heat to the back of my head was intense. I landed in New Jersey. Walking around in that shithole was the worst part of the day. Also, on June 27, 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind 30 feet off the top of the cage during a hell in a cell match.

it was a rare super happening tho
i turned on (((cnn))) when the first tower was hit

The world didn't change much after.
People were still selfish killers as before. Only the rhetoric changed.

I was standing on top of the Prudential building in Newark NJ at the time with some co workers and we saw the first tower turn into a cloud of smoke and I quickly found out it was too soon for jokes.

(forgot to add) was terrible, scary. since these terrorists appeared to be out for the highest body count possible, we figured they were going to start taking out shopping areas, nuclear sites, you name it, throughout the western world on a daily basis. we didn't know how the economy could get going again (we thought large gatherings of ppl would be impossible; too easy a target)

Living overseas, my dad was an officer in the military. Playing Super Smash Bros on the N64. My bro was Kirby and I was Ness. My dad came in and said, "there was an accident, some idiot flew a plane into one of the Twin Towers". Lazily watching the TV after beating my bro. Saw a second one crash as well.

When the towers fell my dad was like made an incredulous grunt (like he didn't believe the official story) and sounding defeated: "oh fuck, we're really going to war again".

My Mom woke me up freaking out screaming “they attacked us” “those bastards attacked us”

Lol when I think back on this, she had no idea who “they” were. I just watched for 15mins then went to school. My principal made an announcement on the speaker saying what happened. Not very eventful.

Nobody gives a shit about CA. Your biggest terrorist attack was the garlic kid.

what did you say? hope they got insurance?

I was thrilled. Took the rest of the day off school to watch the replays.

I was eleven. Sick at home from school. Think it was a Tuesday or Wednesday. Early morning. Mom woke me up. "Look on the TV!" I say "Whoa, cool" cause I like explosions and action. Mom says "no, this is real". I just sit and watch. Remember at one point trying to change to Cartoon Network but Fox News was broadcasting through them. Thought it was an accident at first. Then out of nowhere the second building hits. I remember the eye witness reports. One that stood out was this guy that was driving in front of the pentagon when a road crew suddenly shut down the freeway, then these lamp posts all blew up and fell onto the freeway in front of him, then he watched the pentagon blow up. Could never find his interview after that. Remember it being a black guy. My dad pointed out that they were wrong about what kinda plane hit the pentagon, because the jet turbines were too small for the plane they named, but they never corrected that information, that along with the missile being caught on that Hotel's CCTV footage are what made it seem fishy to this day. That and tower 7. A few days after there were interviews of firefighters saying they watched charges go from bottom up and that it looked like a demolition. Those interviews are long gone too.
