man i'm mad my parents didn't take me up to the Observatory when I was a child. I was about 9 years old when those towers were knocked down. My last memory of seeing WTC was in 1999... I think we were driving west towards China Town and I remember just staring at the towers and asking my parents "What if a plane hits them? Do you think they'd fall?" and my father saying "No, they built those towers to handle a plane impact" The simple irony of me asking that question still haunts me to this day.
fuck those alqueda motherfuckers who took the lives of thousand of innocent people, AMERICA KICK THEIR ASSES SO THEY NEVER HAVE A CHANCE TO DO IT EVER AGAIN, DESTROY TERRORISM ONCE AND FOR ALL AMERICA

@jmjf1987 thanks i didn´t know that. in sweden you only get to know the most famous stuff about ny. and ofcourse the statue of liberty since it´s a present from a country in europe.
Thank you so much for sharing your video with us! So many of us would have loved to have been able to do what you were able to do. I am sure you will never forget that day!
By the way, Cordoba is the city in southern Spain where muslims built their first great mosque at the start of, and as a symbol of, their conquest of Spain.
Oh, that is good news it will at least be in New Jersey, I juat wish it could have been in its orginal spot, it belongs in the city, but I guess having it back in the world is just as good. xD
i live in the netherlands and been on vacation in new york in 1999 july when i went in the wtc i went up (took me 15 min to get up :S) got in the deck ,man that was scary :P
Before the horror of the attack, lovely buildings, amazing skyline, fantastic view from the top and before there was the fanatical 9/11 troof movement. How I long for the days before 9/11.
"Freedom Tower" has been dropped as the official designation. I think it's just going to be called one world trade center, I think that sounds better I never liked it being called the Freedom Tower. It was a bad name from the start, just reminds me of the last guy in the white house.
The WTC should have been back in the skyline in 2004, construction could have started in late 2002, through 2003 and opened early 2004. This country is ridiculous sometimes. We are stronger than this, and the Twin Towers need to rise again. Screw the Fear Tower.
its the freedom tower and the cleanup operation took nearly a year and then the memorial its quite easy to say should put them back in the skyline it takes longer than a few years and give people time to mourn instead of trying to forget about it
Hey the Towers can be rebuilt! This project called the Twin Towers II has been featured on NBC several times. I am apart of the rebuilding effort and this plan can be built at Ground Zero right NOW! If the Twin Towers II is not built at Ground Zero then it will be built in New Jersey where land is already ready. For more info contact me or Google, Twin Towers II project.
3 months later... surreal. rip 9/11 victims. thank you for the footage. i had always wanted to go up the towers, but this is the next best thing. thanks again for sharing. peace.
I'm so said that I haven't could see this! .. Cause i'm born in 1993 , And i come from holland , Does anyone know when they're going to start with building the new Word trade Center ?
Thank you.I remember my visit on the top of the world on WTC, when I was 17 and that was in 1996. Long time ago. I still have nice pictures from the views, but i don´t have clips.
@pbyardh doesint that make you feel sick knowing that YOU climbed that tower and in 3 monthes it would be destroyed and also the feeling that you just pasted through deaths shadow that would make me sick to my stomach knowing that fact
i really wish i could have gone in these . i came back from florida 2 days before this happend . im 14 now and im crying because i so wanted 2 see these . atleast im going in the freedom tower when its done . when i was in florida my mum said in 2003 we can see the twin towers and then 2 days later , there gone . r.i.p everyone who died on 11th september 2001 . i wish they would build them again along with the freedom tower . whoever caused this is so sick . my birthday is on september 10th .
In mid 2001 my chruch went to nyc attend a christian convention. we stayed at a hotle just a few blocks away from the wtc. one day we went to the observation deck there... I was on top of the world trade center 5 months before 9/11....I even remember eating at the cafe on the observation deck like it was yesturday... ironicly before we left, I got a lucky rabbit's foot at the observation deck gift shop which I still carry with me to this day... I hope all who died on 9/11 can rest in peace.
i am getting gta soon on xbox 360 . the worst thing is that i have sayed where have your towers gone to americans on xbox live . i regret that now and i just hope everyone who died on 9/11 will r.i.p . plz plz rebuild these . give americans what they lost and deserve . give them there towers back !
well what i meant was no tourists were on the roof which is why i mentioned the Observation Deck opened at 9:30. Yes it is possible workers who open deck could have been up there that morning and some could have been on the 107th floor indoor deck. If someone was on the roof they would have been blown off I hope no one was up there.
Glad you liked it. The strangest thing is I had lost it for several years, it was at the tail end of a video cassette and i couldn't locate it. One weekend I decided to review all of my tapes, specifically looking for this, because we knew it existed. Lo and behold I found it, and had to share. We often talk about the folks we met working there, and how they fared. Also the vicinity, we had a sandwich and a beer at an Amish shop nearby afterward...it would have been trashed. Thanks for liking it
Es ist einfach nur schrecklich wenn man 3 monate vor dem attentat in dem wtc ist und man nie im leben an so etwas denken würde. und von heute auf morgen ist das die schreckliche realität!!! :'(
Well, we had a good time for this visit. What happened three months later.....yes, it was horrible. I'm glad you enjoyed this video! I thought I had lost it. It was a perfect day in New York City.
listen many ppl hated the twin towers back in da day when they were first built but then ppl loved it thats how it will be with freedom tower there will b haters but ppl will learn to love it and thats it life goes on i miss the towers but those fucking terrorists fucked it all up i hope they burn in hell if i was on the plane 9/11 i would have cut them open
observation deck is roughly same height as ur looking at. roof is 417m, identical to wtc1. so observation deck around the '100th' floor or slightly higher so relax
I went to New York a year ago, and being at ground zero was quit something. It's hard to beleive those towers aren't tere any more. Did you eat at windows on the world in the North tower?
they are goin to build smaller buildings because al quieda did not randomly choose them two buildings. for weeks after those attacks the financial center of america was at a virtual standstill.
they also aimed for the pentagon (hq of military)
white house (presidents house)
america have learned from their mistakes. the wtc looked stable, but think about it:
three floors destroyed and the whole building collapses?
Excellent Video!! Thanks so much for sharing what must have been a very memorable experience to say the least! I still get the chills when watching any video/movie with them still in it. :( Were you in the Windows on the World Restaurant when you video taped some of this video??
This video taken by someone on Thursday, June 7, 2001 while I was taking a tour in Fort Dix, NJ at that time reminds me of my last visit to the Observation Deck on Saturday, September 6, 1997.
I was there in June 1980 -- it was a sunny day pretty much like this one -- and have only had a few photos to remember the incredible views by. Thanks for allowing me to come fairly close to reliving the experience!
Brilliant video, kudos to the creator. What a massive shame that they were attacked :( Two things I would do if I could go back in time to 2001, save the wtc and buy apple stock!!!
well when i was born i even know how to say the bulidings full name by the time i was 3 years old because everytime i go to nyc i go to the holland tunnel and i always look at the buildings
thank you so much for posting this. i went to the top of the world in 1989 when i was 12 years old with my grandma. they were just amazing. i was truly in love with the towers as well as new york city and i still remember the feeling of being up there, and just realizing how small you are. i also remember being in the plaza and looking up at them for the first time, the word mighty comes to mind. i sure do miss them.
I was in NYC in mid-July 2001 and went to where the towers were. I wanted to go up in them but didn't have time to go up in them, which I really regret now. I remember getting dizzy trying to see the tops of the towers from the ground. Thank you so much for posting this video.
this brought back awesome memories, i was at this exact same spot 3 weeks before the 9/11 attacks, i must have gone through 6 rolls of film (pre digital camera days) shooting every point around the observation deck ...incredible
in september 98 i visited wtc2, very nice view, we had nearly the same weather-shiny.
the attacks were ,this is NOT a joke-forecasted to my by a person with a near-death experience-he even made detailed descriptions of the committers,their place of living and even talked to Atta because he visited him in hamburg-this is -as i wrote-NOT- a joke. he had this experience on august 1995.
In my life I probably was in the Twin Towers at least 1,000 times working as an electrician and to me it still is not a believeable thing that they are no longer there. As well as the amount of people I came across while doing jobs there, that were killed. The numbers are countless. It is a sad, sad thing.
I went ther on august something in 2001, and I remember a very nice security gaurd help my mom go in an autherize elevator cause my mom was scared of the express elivators...I hoped she survived :(
It's so beautiful to see the twins... I love them and I miss them so much !!! I'm so sad, because the September 11 and because I have never seen the towers :-(
The most telling comment after 9/11 was Bin Laden exclaiming how proud he was that nineteen high school graduates (i.e., of relatively limited education) could pull off such a complex event -- all about destruction but nothing about creation, innovation, nor construction.
This is the enemy who hates us so much that they will not stop until there is no understanding at all.
holy crap...truly amazing video, ive never seen new york from the top of those, ive been on rockefeller, chrysler and of course the empire state building....great video, wish those towers were still there
That's a really impressive video. I've been at the Twin Towers, but at the time I didn't film it , just took some pictures. Watching your video really make me cry , remember that in spit of that they're building a new and taller building know (The Freedom Tower), it will not be the same.
The Twin Towers were so unique, so Magnificent. I wish that they would build exactly the same again. Well, they could built two Freedom Towers, why not ? Then, we could call them "Twin Towers".
God I envy you. I wish I could have seen the buildings before they were taken from us. Great footage, Im really sorry for your feelings. We all feel this way. Im shure most of us still think about the horrible event. Its impossible not to.
Oo crazy? I wish the terrorist stayed at home this day... The Empire State Building is more traditional than the wtc... I think the Wtc is only such famous because it was destroyed. I even didn't know it before 9/11^^
they were the tallest buildings in the world, that was their initial claim to fame. Then they weren't so they added the antenna to reclaim it. I wish I could have went in them once, and saw them from the outside to have an idea of how big they were.
Heh, the Empire State building is actually a much stronger structure than the WTCs. A commercial jet would have probably just bounced off the Empire State building.
omg that look so high and the people who was in worl tread center that die it crash take a choide just lay down on floor or jump out of the tower if they had cellphones they called all freinds and everything and say a lsat godbye..that sad endning
when i was little me and my family went to NYC and we went into the towers. to think of what happened and to know that you were once standing there gives me the chilles.
I remember back in the late 70s how people use to criticize the WTC's design and how they were not good architecture. Still, like many of you, I always wanted to see the WTC up close. It may sound kind of shallow but the Twin Towers were probably the epitome of New York City. Manhattan simply isn't what is use to be without them standing.
:(
Bless those souls that were killed in such a horrible inccident.
whoever said the WTC was not good architecture does not know what they're talking about. Their beauty was their simplicity. Two towers standing together. Although they were different, they fit New York perfectly. The Freedom Tower is the worst architecture ever. It looks like something you shot heroin with. They should just scrap this project right now and make that site a park. I'd rather see no towers than the FT.
i disagree, the towers are gone and its time to rebuild. the towers were fantastic i know but do not write off the building being made to try replenish the cripled area (i pressume office space). freedom tower is a modern design, u surely cant expect replicas made. they were 60's/70's buildings but with timeless architecture. truest me, im not from the u.s but i believe u will all be proud of the buildingS that replace these wonders
I know what you mean, as the towers were simple in form. They were more of an engineering project rather than an architectural break-through. Bold they were, but the towers alienated the people and surrounding buildings. FYI: Freedom tower does blow hard. This is true. Two white elephants removed, perfect for an inside job. If we're good enough for war, we're good enough to die in a tower.
i know wtc was one of the best buildings built and i felt it was over sean because of the sears tower being taller but i miss then i do like the freedom tower though but its not the same but im glad somethings going there
just to let u know they cheated the sears tower they say its 110 floors but it only has 108 and that little penthouse on the roof doesnt count so without that the building is only 1,430 feet so not big difference cuz wtc was 1,368 and 1,362 and the observation deck was about 1,380 feet so not bad
man i'm mad my parents didn't take me up to the Observatory when I was a child. I was about 9 years old when those towers were knocked down. My last memory of seeing WTC was in 1999... I think we were driving west towards China Town and I remember just staring at the towers and asking my parents "What if a plane hits them?

I went to New York a year ago, and being at ground zero was quit something. It's hard to beleive those towers aren't tere any more. Did you eat at windows on the world in the North tower?

they are NEVER going to rebuild those two towers
misterruttle 4 years ago 3
dude. you think they gonna do that?
they are goin to build smaller buildings because al quieda did not randomly choose them two buildings. for weeks after those attacks the financial center of america was at a virtual standstill.
they also aimed for the pentagon (hq of military)
white house (presidents house)
america have learned from their mistakes. the wtc looked stable, but think about it:
three floors destroyed and the whole building collapses?

This video taken by someone on Thursday, June 7, 2001 while I was taking a tour in Fort Dix, NJ at that time reminds me of my last visit to the Observation Deck on Saturday, September 6, 1997.

thank you so much for posting this. i went to the top of the world in 1989 when i was 12 years old with my grandma. they were just amazing. i was truly in love with the towers as well as new york city and i still remember the feeling of being up there, and just realizing how small you are. i also remember being in the plaza and looking up at them for the first time, the word mighty comes to mind. i sure do miss them.

I was in NYC in mid-July 2001 and went to where the towers were. I wanted to go up in them but didn't have time to go up in them, which I really regret now. I remember getting dizzy trying to see the tops of the towers from the ground. Thank you so much for posting this video.

No, because the people who were in the building said the doors were locked (conveniently) so they couldn't go up there.

in september 98 i visited wtc2, very nice view, we had nearly the same weather-shiny.
the attacks were ,this is NOT a joke-forecasted to my by a person with a near-death experience-he even made detailed descriptions of the committers,their place of living and even talked to Atta because he visited him in hamburg-this is -as i wrote-NOT- a joke. he had this experience on august 1995.

In my life I probably was in the Twin Towers at least 1,000 times working as an electrician and to me it still is not a believeable thing that they are no longer there. As well as the amount of people I came across while doing jobs there, that were killed. The numbers are countless. It is a sad, sad thing.

The most telling comment after 9/11 was Bin Laden exclaiming how proud he was that nineteen high school graduates (i.e., of relatively limited education) could pull off such a complex event -- all about destruction but nothing about creation, innovation, nor construction.
This is the enemy who hates us so much that they will not stop until there is no understanding at all.

That's a really impressive video. I've been at the Twin Towers, but at the time I didn't film it , just took some pictures. Watching your video really make me cry , remember that in spit of that they're building a new and taller building know (The Freedom Tower), it will not be the same.
The Twin Towers were so unique, so Magnificent. I wish that they would build exactly the same again. Well, they could built two Freedom Towers, why not ? Then, we could call them "Twin Towers".

Oo crazy? I wish the terrorist stayed at home this day... The Empire State Building is more traditional than the wtc... I think the Wtc is only such famous because it was destroyed. I even didn't know it before 9/11^^

they were the tallest buildings in the world, that was their initial claim to fame. Then they weren't so they added the antenna to reclaim it. I wish I could have went in them once, and saw them from the outside to have an idea of how big they were.

Heh, the Empire State building is actually a much stronger structure than the WTCs. A commercial jet would have probably just bounced off the Empire State building.

I remember back in the late 70s how people use to criticize the WTC's design and how they were not good architecture. Still, like many of you, I always wanted to see the WTC up close. It may sound kind of shallow but the Twin Towers were probably the epitome of New York City. Manhattan simply isn't what is use to be without them standing.
:(
Bless those souls that were killed in such a horrible inccident.
kh101 5 years ago
whoever said the WTC was not good architecture does not know what they're talking about. Their beauty was their simplicity. Two towers standing together. Although they were different, they fit New York perfectly. The Freedom Tower is the worst architecture ever. It looks like something you shot heroin with. They should just scrap this project right now and make that site a park. I'd rather see no towers than the FT.
bassman5588 4 years ago 6
i disagree, the towers are gone and its time to rebuild. the towers were fantastic i know but do not write off the building being made to try replenish the cripled area (i pressume office space). freedom tower is a modern design, u surely cant expect replicas made. they were 60's/70's buildings but with timeless architecture. truest me, im not from the u.s but i believe u will all be proud of the buildingS that replace these wonders
coreylahey1985 4 years ago
doubt it. these new buildings are a disgrace to those who died.
bassman5588 4 years ago
I know what you mean, as the towers were simple in form. They were more of an engineering project rather than an architectural break-through. Bold they were, but the towers alienated the people and surrounding buildings. FYI: Freedom tower does blow hard. This is true. Two white elephants removed, perfect for an inside job. If we're good enough for war, we're good enough to die in a tower.

i know wtc was one of the best buildings built and i felt it was over sean because of the sears tower being taller but i miss then i do like the freedom tower though but its not the same but im glad somethings going there
Charmedone9805 4 years ago
just to let u know they cheated the sears tower they say its 110 floors but it only has 108 and that little penthouse on the roof doesnt count so without that the building is only 1,430 feet so not big difference cuz wtc was 1,368 and 1,362 and the observation deck was about 1,380 feet so not bad
