  • i was only a year old i wish i could have seen it

  • looking at the construction of wtc one now, the original two look so much taller.

  • @theblackjackish- That's because Tower 1 isn't done yet.

  • i hate u sooo much u r so lucky i waz 4 months when they fell i always wanted to go in there

  • what year ...when you to visit this.

  • extremely jealous. always wanted to see the inside and see the view of nyc from the top. around 8 years old when the buildings were hit

  • @lcconnell2001 What about WTC3?

  • One word................. Amazing!

  • It's so.... Beautiful

  • And to all of you people who said this is eerie, I totally agree. I stood in that elevator 4 months before the attacks. Now that I think about it, that's pretty creepy. 4 months later and they're gone. Poof. Thats insane. I'm glad they're building new towers now, even if they aren't twins.

  • Wow. I never realized how truly lucky I am to have gone to the Towers and have memories of it all. I am 15 so I am the only one I know my age that has had that experience and remembers it. I remember everything, even though its vague.

  • wonder if anyone went on the empire state

  • OMG I just noticed that this tower is so precious to man kind and how could have this happened!!

    It already has future stuff in. I MISS THE TOWERS AND THE FAMILIES

  • My boyfriend travels alot, and hes evven been toNew York but it was after 2001. But I was talking to him and he told me how he was suppose to go in 99' and I was like YOU HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO NEW YORK BEFORE 9/11 AND YOU DIDNT!! And he was like babe! I didnt know they were going anywhere!! I didnt know if i should laugh or be sad..but it was a statement i dont forget! Not in anyway am i trying to be offensive! GOD BLESS THE WTC AND ITS VICTIMS THAT WERE MURDERED THAT DAY! (by the us)

  • holy when was this video taken??!!

  • R.I.P kevin cosgrove 105th floor.. :'(

  • illuminati

  • Those towers were so beautiful and fun I visited them for the first time in the year 2000 and strange enough on the 10th of September they had a year and a day to stand. I came again in July 2001 its Evil the way they were destroyed and all those poor people I hope the bastards burn for what they did.

  • a reason why I like this video so much is because the music fits with the video. IT reminds people about the classic new york, before 9/11

  • i just kept thinking it must have been so horrible to jump from them windows

  • I wish I had even seen those buildings while they were standing.

  • I just got the craziest de-ja-vu at 2:40.....I visited the trade center once when I was a kid and i'll never forget how fast those express elevators were, you could literally go from the lobby to the observation deck in under a minute give or take.

  • I would have wanted to see the WTC before the attack. My mom went there and ate at Windows on the World at the top of the north tower. She said she could feel the tower sway. :D It would have been so cool to work at the top of one of those buildings.

  • @fyfytj it won't be the same, the new one will be just another boring new piece of crappy architecture, the twin towers were iconic I still can't believe they're being replaced by hunks of metal and glass

  • @1989hirokazu WHATEVER!, MAN!. TWIN TOWERS ARE LIKE PEOPLE, ONCE THEY ARE GONE, THEY GONE, SO, MOVE ON.

  • Imagine jumpin from atop that bitch 0.0

  • Wow , The architecture was beautiful. May all the victims of this tragedy r.i.p. <3

  • Are you fucking sick or something? And everybody else that posted positive comments....wtf? Are you kidding me? How could you possible make such a video in poor taste with the music, at the sight of one of America's most gut-wrenching tragedies? sick....pure sickening

  • @77leespllbg it was before the attacks, your comment would only make sense if this was a video about 9/11. Because it's not, your comment is out of place.

  • Thank you so much for sharing this! I never got to see the WTC!

  • Good song choice at the end.

  • I cant believe the people who had to jump, jumped that high! : O

  • Thank you for posting this. Now I know what it is like before the towers fell. If the towers didn't fall, and if i wasnt that young, i would have visited the WTC about a million times before they fell. Thank you. May all the victims R.I.P.

  • The event that took place on September 11, 2001 changed my world forever. RIP. Wish I could have been there. I would have been the first person to run inside those burning towers. -/3 RIP

  • Was at the observatory 4-2-01 with my dad. One thing that sticks with me is an offhand comment he made when we walked by a stairwell at the top. He said, can you imagine trying to run down all those stairs?

    RIP, Prayers to the Victims Families!

  • i wish i could go there before the attack it looks cool

  • I just wish there will be something half as beautiful as these buildings again.

  • man, you go on a trip and just film the place with the idea of simply sharing it with folks at home who couldn't go, and later it turns out what you were incidentally doing was making a record of a place that millions of people will be looking at in it's museum.

  • i bet all the people who use to go up to the top of the world trade center roofs feel alittle freaked out now

  • I just wish we could appreciate just how beautiful it was, instead of all the thoughts that come with this video. God bless all of the victims and thier families. And God bless New York. :)

  • The World Trade Center looked so gorgeous before the attack, both inside and out. I wish I could go back in time a long time before the attack and just stand on the top of one of the towers and just... live!

  • I never got a chance to see The World Trade Center. ;_;

  • @rockyrigby you can still catch the New world trade center.

  • @rockyrigby Don't cry. You can still see WTC4, WTC5, and WTC6.

  • it's hard to look at them and not see those planes crashing in them...fucking terrorists

  • Is this in the 1990's?

  • There's kids in there... OMG FUCKING TERRORISTS!

  • This really freaked me out. Very eerie. To see all these places, knowing what the future held for them. It really really freaked me out.

  • Exactly what i was looking for. Thanks insanely for uploading.

  • I wish I could have been there before the terror started!!

  • The buildings were perfect. I hate the fact that they're destroyed and will never be here again.

  • This is very eerie. There is nothing good at these buildings at all to me... They just remind me of 9/11.

  • i was so so lucky to be inside the WTC a year before the attack and i fell in love with these buildings they were so amazing and the view from the very top was breath taking i was teasing my sister as she wouldnt look out the window at the top so we had a laugh up their i so wanted to go back as the WTC held good memories for me now sadly ill never get that chance now it broke my heart seeing these amazing buildings destroyed and all the lovley pepole inside them

  • This is just extremely eerie

  • I think your music selection is strange and somewhat retarded for the subject matter.

  • my dad always used to take me here, the last time i went was 2 weeks before the towers came down

  • 9/11 was done by bush and dick cheney

  • Its really sad what then did to us just for Vengeance, its crazy how people can be so evil as to take thousands of peoples lives

  • UGH im mad because when this happen I was to Young to even remember, My mom says iv been there but I dont remember it at all

  • I was in the lobby of the World Trade Center in 1995, and remember staring at their magnificence again in 2000...less than a year before the attacks. I can't believe it's almost been 10 years. Unbelievably tragic.

  • george bush is responsible for the attack the C.IA funded Al Qaeda

  • @1977Acosta I heard your mother was responsible.

  • Now, imagine if someone tapped all the buttons in the elevator, how annoying would that be ? (:

  • Gracias por el video, muy emocionante.

  • ive been on that kind of bus on thursday the 8-18-11 every thing was there but the wtc man i wanted to go up there

  • Comment removed

  • i miss the twin towers :(

  • Thanks for this.

  • Respond to this video... 1:41 - 1:49 I couldn't refrain from visualizing a falling person... Rest. In. Peace... ;(

  • which song is this?

  • @MsTina1507 I dont know the first song...

    0:36 is The Beatles 'I saw here standing there'

    1:30 is The Beatles 'Shes got a ticket to ride'

    3:31 is The Beatles 'Across the universe'

  • I wish I could see the Towers... :(

  • I absolutely HATE the BEATLES with a PASSION! George Harrison is such a dick face asshole! Goddamn! The music ruined the beauty of the video! D:

  • now that osama bastard is going to burn in hell forever

  • @MultiMinigun Inside job fool...

  • @LeKden8 sigh

  • @MultiMinigun go watch the documenrty on youtube called loose change then u faggots will know that osama had nothing to do with the bombing

  • @nmnn95 There's this one person on YouTube who disproves all of the 9/11 conspiracy theories. His name is RKOwens4 and I go suggest you watch his videos before you start to actually believe that 9/11 was done by the government.

  • @Benstudio13 go watch loose change u faggot then talk to me

  • @nmnn95 I have. And I suggest you go watch RKOwen4's videos.

  • @MultiMinigun I hope the victims get to beat the shit out of him before he gets there!

  • @MultiMinigun Maybe not in hell but still I'm glad he's dead. I just have to say that's justice.

  • @MultiMinigun MOTHERFUCKING AMEN TO THAT!. MAAM.

  • from looking at the video from before the attack, the buildings look very spooky and errie!

  • I wish i were there before the attack

  • @Ritesh00765 at least a few hours before and you had time to leave lol

  • @Ritesh00765 me too 

  • @Ritesh00765- Me too. I'm definately gonna try to visit the new WTC once it's completed.

  • Bellissimo video....era proprio quello che volevo vedere!

  • Comment removed

  • Sad very sad I just can't cry hard enough

  • Thank goodness for videos such as these- They bring back such happy carefree memories- It truly was a magical place! I was fortunate enough to visit many times- Took all my friends visiting to the observation deck & viewing room. The restaurant was incredible, and I even went into labor with my son there- celebrating a visit from my Dad-Wonderful times- Very sad to see it all destroyed in a matter of minutes- So much loss of life-Devastating- Thank you for remembering and honoring.

  • this is so sad

  • @musicdude1231000 I miss the original Twin Towers!! If they don't rebuild the Twin Towers I will never visit New York City again because they killed so many people on 9/11 and plus they destroyed 2 beautiful icons that once dominated the Manhattan skyline. I want the Twin Towers back but if they don't rebuild them, I will never visit New York again.

  • Wow! this video is marvelous! i like it because there's no words like "before" or dates, u know what im saying? Congrats! i liked it very much! and the video seems like a typical video from 90's Love it!

  • this vid annoyes me being the 12 year old i am knowing i will never get the chance to go on top of the twin towers

  • @123holyspirit1 I wish they could just rebuild the Twin Towers back the way they were but stronger! Do you know what I just found out about the Freedom Tower? They will not have the Windows On The World restaurant like they did on the Twin Towers. Plus they won't have an outdoor observation neither. The new WTC is ugly and does not belong in New York. I wish that they could rebuild the Twin Towers!

  • @hotters70603ben yes so do I or they could add on to the wtc

  • @hotters70603ben u cant take the observastion deck

  • @123holyspirit1 This is the most terrible thing that has ever happened to New York City. The skyline is totally changed forever and I hate it so much. I miss the Twin Towers!! R.I.P To the people who died on 9/11! And R.I.P to the Twin Towers 1973-2001.

  • @hotters70603ben you said it all

  • @123holyspirit1 The new World Trade Center will never be like the Twin Towers!! The Twin Towers had a beautiful restaurant called Windows On The World and a beautiful outdoor observation deck on the roof of the South Tower!! The new WTC will never be as good as the Twin Towers! I miss the Twin Towers so much and I wish that we could rebuild them for those who died in the 9/11 attacks.

  • @hotters70603ben but really a momorial thn is it

  • @123holyspirit1 I don't want to go to New York anymore! They have done alot of damage to that city!

  • Have they rebuild the WTC... If not.. Are they going to ?

  • @FillionDollarSmile i heard they were gonna make sommin called 7 world trade center as a momorial

  • Awesome! I was only barely 4 (September 4, 1997) When that whole 9 11 mess happened.  It's nice to see what it was like, and I'm looking forward to the new WTC! I want to go on the observatory

  • Aside from all the negative & ridiculous posts on here, I want to give my greatest thanks and love for giving everyone a chance to look at the WTC and to see what it was like. I thought it was most appropriate when you chose across the universe as your song up top, producing the only beautiful view we may ever see from where the WTC stood. Thank you for sharing this...

  • Is this when it was the good days? Yeah but not really.

  • Too bad these towers had to collapse. They look pretty nice and fun.

  • :)

  • I was there so many times, but only at the top once when I was about 8 or 9... with my daddy, who has passed away... anyways, to think that on 9/11 someone was merely visiting , JUST like I had when I was little, and had their lives taken from them is just awful... so many lives taken that day, so many lives affected... I will never ever forget these amazing towers or the lives lost!!!! XOXO

  • What a great time back then, until the Terriosts ruined it!

  • @TVTCollider

    they really didnt. the official story is a lie

  • Beautiful video :)

  • very cool..ive been there :] 

  • FUCK GEORGE BUSH HES THE FUCKING TERRORIST IF HE WASNT PRESIDENT THE TWIN TOWERS WOULD STILL BE HERE! BUT NO HES A PIG HE DID THIS BECAUSE HE WANTED A FUCKING EXCUSE TO INVADE IRAQ!

  • @Apphelper u may be right.i did alot of research. 911 was a controlled demolition.explosives were used to take down the buildings. explosives and thermite.which is a military chemical that burns hot enogh to melt steel..airplanes alone could not cause buildings that big to collapse. especialy at free fall speed..the buildings had no resistince on the way down which means the undamaged floors below were blown out of the way. i dont think it was a terorist attack at all really

  • @Apphelper2 You said it!! I think that 9/11 was an inside job. There is strong evidence to support the 9/11 truth movement. You are definitely right about George Bush. Do you know something? Al Gore was the one that actually won the election in the year 2000. Al Gore was supposed to be the president. Do you know what Al Gore said about George Bush? Al Gore said that George Bush is the cause if everything that has happened in Iraq and Afghanistan.

  • New York is nothing without those twin towers now!!

  • Thanks for sharing, I live in Toronto and have never been to the towers, was great to see how they looked inside.

    God Bless the September 11th 2001 victims, my family, friends and Canada's heart goes out to New Yorkers and Americans.

  • To think after those planes hit every thing just vanished... they said the biggest object of office equipment they found was a piece of a phone keypad..

  • It's good to see a video of the WTC with good music thats not sad. Thank you for the video. :)

  • @gtaman89 u said it's good to see a video of the WTC with good music thats not sad but the song is saying IN SEPTEMBER!!!!! how is that not sad

  • @es78xx i believe the observatory wasn't open at the time and by time it was the second plane hit...

  • was there any tourists on the top when it came down???

  • omg. 

  • Wow can u believe it everything what ur seeing right now is ... gone

  • Beautiful tribute great song at the end sad though.

  • i miss them

  • thanks for sharing

  • at 2:20...that bridge was literally crushed to the street when the north tower collapsed. completely destroyed. it originally led from the winter garden to the wtc.

  • Watching makes me relize its just gone.. gone :S feels wierd

  • what year was this?

  • lol king kong 4:35

  • these buildings to me are a true icon, not only american but it was an icon of an ended era of security and personal saftey..the world was somewhat more sane then, it was an icon of the times.

  • Across the universe was kinda sad, especially "Nothings gonna change my world."

  • beautiful buildings too bad you had to raze them to the ground

  • @scompagnone What year was this video recorded?

  • i'm bummed that i never got to go to the observatory, being so high up and all, but when the New building is built, at 1776 (the year of the signing of the declaration of Independance) feet high, i want to go to the top and look out all over the Empire State.

  • we should put up 2 new towers....we cant give in...i think it would do America some good....piece of mind...idk..

  • So sad...thank you for sharing this video with us..

  • my thoughts are at innocent humans and their families, who were killed on 11 September 2001 Eternal accusation and eternal hope dedication: 11. September 2001!!! Humans decide, that humans must to die. Because they different are. The faith becomes the sense. Also other-thinking one must die. And again humans decide, that humans must to die. Because they different are. And again the faith do justify. Again also other-thinking one dies. Is there hope?
  • it gives me chills seeing the towers standing

  • So sad now. ): God bless them.

    I wish i could have visited the

    Twin Towers. Now i never will. ):

    I will never forget...

  • Thank you for making this video and keeping the memory of the WTC alive. I loss of the towers and those held inside her walls is a devating blow to all it touched. The music you looped with this video is perfect. Thank you for sharing and remembering Susie.

    Bless you and all who perished!

    Cindy

  • Thank you for sharing your video.

  • Listening to the Beatles sing "Nothing's Gonna Change My World" was surreal while watching this carefree time. Thank you for making this video. It reminds us what a joy these Towers were for so many years and a place of employment for thousands.

    God please continue to help those who mourn and give humanity wisdom in handling our differences without hatred and violence.

  • @8mycrab Thanks for sharing.I thought this was the most beautiful building in ny when I went there over 20 yrs ago.I didn't have the heart to see the sight after the devastation and I only saw it six years later when I went for an interview. It was very upsetting for me to see.My mother had taken my father to see it before it was destroyed When I took my father visiting from Jamaica to see it again last month, the rebuilding process had started and it was not traumatic for me.

  • @8mycrab So sad. ): Thank

    you Susie for sharing this.

    Very nice comment and prayer.

  • @8mycrab Susie thank you..

  • @8mycrab thank u susie how peaceful it looks here...i saw a doc. with the "flight 93" yesterday and i was socked and crying! God bless them...i cant believe how people diside for other's lifes.actually i cant believe how thet diside about their own lifes which is a present of God.they kill temshelfes without thinking their familys.crazy..

  • @misira80 Iwanna I watched that film too...horrible..

  • i was up there 2 days before the attack. the view was amazing. i cannot remember the details because it was so long ago and i was only 6, i just remember looking down and wanting to throw a penny off and get it later.

  • That was so beautiful and sad. I always wanted to visit the WTC, but I'll never get a chance. This was so great to see though. I am so thankful the observatory wasn't open yet,that would have been horrible. Thank you for this touching video.

  • when i was little i dreamed about going there. i never got to. i'm so sad now. they're gone. RIP

  • Thankyou for this beautifulk video and music by The Beatles....It makes me cry to know our beautiful Twin Towers are gone forever...they represented our great city of New York.....RIP to all those that have lost their lives that day....my prayers are forever with you and your families.......

  • I never got to see the WTC.

  • Nice tribute and great music.

  • it looks like fun

  • I can't wait until I go to New York and climb the memorial towers!

  • Still the most beautiful City in the World! RIP all whom we lost. God Bless the FDNY!

  • wish i could have seen the towers before

  • Hey Scompa, I used to work in the World Trade Center 24th floor. I was also there on September 11, 2001. Such a sad day...

  • i don't think the towers looked THAT tall

  • I get so many mixed feelings watching videos like this. I didn't know anyone affected by the tragedy and I don't even live in the U.S. I live in Ontario, Canada, but somehow I feel like I did lose someone. I wish I could have visited the towers before Sept. 11th. Apparently they are building new towers that will be up by 2013... is this true?

  • @missfatalefemme yup its true, I was in NYC in May and they have already started building structures at ground zero

  • @missfatalefemme yes but the bad thing is no restraunt and no observation deck

  • @missfatalefemme yes but no obsevervation deck or resteraunt

  • @missfatalefemme Yes, new towers are being built as we speak, however, they are hideous. And do NOT match with the New York skyline. Where the Twin Towers once stood will be two big square pools. WTC 7, which was also destroyed in the attack has already been finished.
