Today is the 22nd anniversary of 9/11, when the Twin Towers in New York, USA got blown up in a Terrorist attack and a LOT of people died!

It was an event that shocked the World!

My Brother and my sister in law were actually in New York at the time, but thankfully they're still with us (it's their 17th Anniversary on Saturday)

No idea, probably playing with something somewhere or at school, not paying attention. I didn't even hear about it until years later. I'm sure it was on the news but I didn't really have a reason to care about some building getting bumped by some plane somewhere on the other side of the world...

My Grandads birthday was Sept 11th, I think we were all celebrating that eating a meal at home, and then afterwards went to all chill out in the lounge and turned the TV on, vaguely remember seeing it on the TV.

I was in photography class at around 14:00 (started at 13:30 ), I felt my phone buzz in my pocket whilst in the dark room. I came out and looked and rang my then partner. She was shouting down the phone at me had I seen what was happening. America was under attack, I went up to the TV and plugged the Arial in and turned the TV on, tuned it to the first station I could.
And was met with the sight of flight 175 slamming into tower 2.
