RTÉ News: September 11th

[JupiterReturnz]

9/11 was an inside job. CIA / Mossad / MI6.

[soeffingwhat]

I think I recorded as much of these Broadcasts as I could on that Day.

[HumanSayNo]

9-11 was an illusion carried out by David Blane!

[fofuksake]

Respond to this video... I remember watching this exact clip with my 6th class homework in front of me 10 years ago today, at first I thought it was a film then Tony Blair came onscreen. Took me hours to do my homework because this was so shocking especially when they filmed people falling from the buildings. Then went into school the next day and not many in the class got their homework completely correct or there was bits missing. Strange enough the teacher understood.

[electrogeek77]

It was the day after my 16th birthday, and it was my dad's birthday. Now he feels guilty whenever it comes around.

[glassaghman]

i miss carole coleman on RTE News

[zXGRITZXz]

Google 911 truth now

[HumanSayNo]

@zXGRITZXz what's that all about??

[branie99]

Hard to believe that it's nearly ten years to the day

[thomasmoonman]

Half way through my 18th BDay. First Sept not back to school In my life. Never even got one full month of real life as an adult the way my parents did before me. Sept 11 changed the world as we know it. I'm great full I grew up in the 80s and 90s.

[pookerville]

I'd just gotten off the bus on my way to work when I first heard the news. I'd just gotten a bottled water at a nearby building when the radio on the canteen truck where I got it was blasting WBZ's coverage of the tragedy.

[AxaPolicy50007837]

was there when it happened

[S2BRocker]

i was 5 and wanted to watch barney cos i didnt no what ws goin on

[SirKillsalot06]

I'd just turned 12 a few days before when this happened.

[JoBrosEire]

I was only 6, but I remember my mam crying while watching the coverage on TV. We thought my aunt and uncle were in one of the twin towers. Thank God they werent in the building, but my heart goes out to all those affected. RIP xxxx

[glenobrien2008]

I was at home having lunch at the age of 5.

[Elevationary]

typical RTE,it was the State Department that was targeted...but it still does not explain a lot.

[Elevationary]

7:05,that does not make sense,why would you place a car bomb out side the pentagon,if you are planning to crash a plane into it......and how does a car bomb get by security at the main gates.......also,where was the car placed,...because when the plane crashed into the pentagon,people would of came running out,and the car would of exploded in front of them,so the big question is,where was the car when it went off.....if the car was far from people when it went off,then i would find that strange.

[Elevationary]

You see you have a Bunch of suicide Bombers on a plane,who kill them selves,and you have one guy who plants a bomb in a car,or drives the car in to the pentagon,and leaves it there,he is not planning on killing him self,do you see what i mean.......,he is still alive.....,he walks away......,but he still has to get out of the Country......,and he cant do that when all planes are grounded,so who was he, and did they catch him.....because they would of found him,something not adding up.

[yoyo5678x]

I was only nine... I do remember doing my homework in front of the tv that day, which I never did... But I didn't really understand what was going on. Not like I do today.

Ignorance really is bliss...

[MsLKSF]

@yoyo5678x i was nine too when it happened....it was actually on my birthday! i remember my mam telling me what had happened but i didnt really understand what was going on either.

[eamonnbowsie]

My uncle was killed in those attacks,i still think about that day alot,i was in new york at Christmas and went down to the site,very weird to be there.

[MrAspect5]

i remember helpin my dad stacking square bales of hay when we heard it come thru on the radio.

[LogInForPaper]

I was in 5th class in primary school. Remember I came home and my mam was screaming at me "A second plane just hit, a second plane just hit". I thought it was some sort of movie or something until I realised it was on the news.

[dylanioi1]

i was in senior infants when this happened nd i didnt know what was goin on wish i was older to remember it

[watsdestorybud]

Jesus george bush is such a twat, A full scale investigation? No shit!!, Well done on clearing that 1 up,

[chairde]

Three hundred firemen died in those buildings that day. While most people were going down the stairs to get out they went up the stairs to help people. At the end of the day there were empty fire stations throughout Manhattan with no firemen left to serve. God Bless the New York City Fire Department!

[IrishGuy2k9]

i was in 2nd or 3rd class wen this happend i think

i remember seeing it on tv

[irishgeal1]

check out a film on utube called, loose change.

[chinn11]

I was being picked up from school in third class, heard a report on the radio of a plane hitting a twin tower. Wasn't upset, got a day off school the next day!

[shy1956]

This is rare rte archive!!!!! good video..i remember rte news that day!!!!!

[skylarking19]

Listen to what the newsreader says at 7:10 in this video. Where did she get car bomb from?

[bistrosidecar]

There was a report of a car bomb outside the homeland security building and at the reflecting pool on the day. A lot of the news networks reported it as fact in the confusion on the day.

[derrinirl]

I was in Waterford City Centre when all this was going on. I overheard people talking about planes but didn't know what was going on.

Later that evening at home I turned on the TV at around 6:03pm and heard on the Six-one News "plane hit World Trade Center" "second plane hit World Trade Center" "plane hit Pentagon" "World Trade Center Tower collapsed" "second World Center Tower collapsed". That was a lot of information to get in 45 seconds.

[xirishxgirlxX]

I remember watching this after coming home in second or third class, I didn't really understand it but it freaked me out =/

R.I.P all victims

[huntertristan]

yes all those thousands killed by the USA in the mid-east before and after 9/11

[bansheewhiskey]

what's this with all the primary school comments? lol

[moyvilla9]

I was in 3rd class i think, came in just after the first tower had gone down. Remember saying to myself, no no the other tower is behind it, we just cant see it from this angle. My gran was in bits because all my uncles work downtown, one of them was actaually sitting in his car in traffic right outside the towers when the first plane hit! Lucky he wasnt killed by falling material....

[branie99]

I was on my home way from France that day. My parents and I had crossed the channel and driven all the way across England to Holyhead.. when we got to the lounge on the boat, we saw people glued to the news on the television set. At first, we thought a good film was on.

[canyonerodriver]

i was 11. somebody told me theyd bombed wall street

[antomurtagh12]

i was in like 1st or second class

[jennifereiffe]

I Was about 7 when that happened i left school and my mam brought me and my brother straight to my nannies house and we all sat and watched in I was too young to understand but i can still remember my mam and the way she reacted when she watched the secound plane go into the other tower.

[RosserD18]

I was in first class and we were doing music and one of the teachers came in and we said a prayer or somethin..:S He told us to watch the telly when we got home

[mwwhahahahahaha]

i was in ms maloneys second year science double when the first plane hit. we were disecting sheeps hearts and no one was told what had happened. i found out two hours later-was walking home and my dad pulled up in the car beside me and told me what had happened.watched the tv till i dont know what hour that night.

i clearly remember thinking how we'd been joking and laughing in science that afternoon without a notion that the world had completely changed outside

[Jordo948]

I was coming home from school in 1st class and saw it on the tele .

[derryguy912]

I remember I was in P5 at the time, and when I got in from school this was on the news, I hadn't really a clue what it was about until later that evening

[Laura2kii8]

I remember also where i was i was in 2nd class...I remember coming home looking at the tv from 3:00 till 6:30 Never took my eyes off the screen!!! Rip...

[samsunghp550]

i remember exactly where i was when this happened. i was working in kerry spring working the 2-10 shift.

[jqbilbao]

Still sends shivers down my spine. Had actually forgotten RTE's coverage; I watched it on CNN

[FPVsean]

i remember seeing this, i was in 2nd class, i came home, my mam said sean, quick, look at the tv... she said, thats the buildings me and your dad were on, theyre gone... i was too young to know exactly what was going on, ill never forget that day

[judeskii]

its hard to believe the world was changing forever while we were watching this.

[nahbios]

Poor Brian Dobson looks really tired by the 6 One news.

[ateam22]

Upload more...especially around 3 o'clock! RTE really aren't meant to do breaking news.

[yeatscounty]

Agreed, please upload more RTE footage from their live coverage if you have it.

I remember that Brian Dobson seemed to be pretty close to tears during some parts of the day.

[legendal1989]

I haven't got much more from the news special during the day unfortunately. But I think I've the Six-One and the Nine - either way I'll upload more from whatever bits I have at some stage. Might be awhile though ;)

[hoganballs]

Yes, my abiding memory of that coverage was Brian Dobson fighting back the tears.

[poohooped]

wher's your soundtrack to this??lol
