10 years ago on this day,
the world witnessed one of the most tragic events to ever happen on American soil.
It was a beautiful morning in downtown Manhatten, people went to work as usual and everything was normal.
Muslims from the terrorist group Al Qaeda hijacked 4 jets which all crashed.
8:46 AM: The first plane struck and the terror begun. American Airlines Flight 11 crashed into the World Trade Centers North Tower.

9:03 AM: United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into the South Tower. 

9:37 AM: American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon.

9:59 AM: The south tower collapsed.

10:03 AM: United Airlines Flight 93 crashed in a field near Shanksville, PA. Apparently it was heading towards the White House, but the passengers on the flight fought the hijackers and crashed the plane. Knowing they'd risk their lives, they saved 1,000's.

10:28 AM: The north tower collapsed.

Nearly 3,000 people died in these attacks.
Those in the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, those in the Pentagon, those in Flight 93 and all the jet planes, and the firefighters who risked their lives to help the victims.

Always remember, never forget.
