NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. I live in Melbourne Australia, and on 9/11 i was in bed asleep. I was woken by my phone at about 10.45pm from a friend who said to quickly turn on your tv, New York was being attacked. When i saw what was happening I was so shocked and wasnt fully understanding what had happend. Living in Australia I wasnt directley affected, but I was there nearly a year ago from that at the world trade centre, holidaying in NYC. And i knew of others that were travelling there for holidays or work.I woke my mum up and told her as i was crying what was happening. We sat up for the next 3hrs sitting there in disbeliefe. It was so upsetting seeing what was happening and knowing what the damage and loss of life there was going to be. Because i had been in the WTC, the year before. Not only was it terrible that the buildings and planes and collided but those other helpless people on the flights that crashed in to P.A and the Pentagon. And just knowing that these people knew they were going to die or that there wasnt much they could do to save them selves. That is the one of the most sadest things that will stay with me forever. And now everytime i hear a plane fly over i cringe and think back to that devestating day. My heart goes out to all the victims and loved ones lives who had there lives taken so terribly, and that i pray for you everyday that you have the strength to go on and live your lives to the fullest, beacuse you really never know what tomorow will bring....
