World Trade Center 911 Tribute with Actual NYC Fire Dpt. Radio Calls to Headquarters!

Actual NY City Fire Department Audio from 911, followed by "Let's Roll" by Neil Young. Enjoy the real 911, never seen before photographs. Produced by Jimmy Howes.. Talking about September 11, 2001 sometimes makes people sad. But talking about the heroes on September 11th may not. There was not just horror on that day. There was also bravery. Here are some heroes and what they did.

In addition to the heroes in the Twin Towers in New York, there were also people on the airplanes that made important calls to let people know what was happening to them. Todd Beamer, Mark Bingham, Tom Burnett Jr., and Jeremy Glick all made phone calls from the plane. Some to mothers, some to wives, and to a GTE Airfone operator, but all gave some clues as to who the people who hijacked the planes were. Todd Beamer said, "They've knifed a guy and they've said there's a bomb." Their calls helped the people on the ground understand what was happening so that the airports could be shut down.

There were also heroes at the Trade Center. Many of them were police officers and firefighters. There were many success stories. One of the stories that is told is about the 6 fire fighters who survived. They are known today as the Lucky Six. They survived because of one reason only; they were helping. Tommy Falco, Sal D'Agostino, Mike Meldrum, Matt Komorowski, Captain Jonas, and Bill Butler were the firefighters. Josephine Harris, a grandmother from Brooklyn, was trying to get out of one of the Trade Tower buildings. She wasn't walking well (her office had been on the 73rd floor) and was exhausted when the firefighters came across her as they were heading down to the lobby. They couldn't leave her there so they began to help her down to the lobby. There was a big boom. The South Tower had just collapsed. When they were on the fourth floor, Josephine couldn't go any further. Then everything started to heave. The North Tower started to go down. Then it was noisy, things began to fly around, and there were gigantic dust clouds. They were hurled around for a moment and then the wreckage settled with them in it. There was no way out. But then they saw, for some reason, the second-floor section of the staircase was still there! The firefighters placed a harness around Josephine and slid her down. Remarkably, all seven got out alive. God Bless America.
