    Both World Trade Centre Towers 110 storeys, collapse after being rammed by two hyjacked commercial aircraft.

    The Pentagon also partly collapsed after being rammed by a 757 commercial aircraft

    Definitely one of those "Where were you when..." kinda days.
    I heard the news from another room, it took a few minutes to register it wasn't a movie or something when I went through to the TV...

    Yes, me too. When I first heard about it, I got told that 2 planes had 'accidently' hit the same building... I thought it sounded strange.. so I assumed that I was getting bs'ed..

    So I went and watched the news... :(
    Its disgusting.. How could anyone do something like this? horrible, disgusting, what a completely sensless act...

    a total of 5 planes, I heard just then, have crashed... 2 into the world trade center(twin towers), 1 into the pentagon, 2 crashed elsewhere for unknown reasons (presumed hi-jacked)...
    :( frightening stuff...

    There's a theory that the 2 that "crashed" into no known target may have actually been shot down,

    I was peacefully watching Rove Live when it scrolled along the bottom of the screen, been watching it for hours and I must how horrifing it was. People lep from buildings trying to escape, they just showed footage of the first plane to hit, less then 45 degrees it came down on. DAMN!

    I think it is quite safe to say our hearts go out to those that lost their lives in this tragic and sad event.

    September 11th will go down in history as thee most sadden day for the entire world.

    May they rest in peace.

    I've only just been able to get to a computer to check that all the people I know from that area are alright (so far, out of five people I know that work in the area, I've only heard from one) but my condolences fly to everyone affected by this disaster.

    I will say now, anyone who starts making sick jokes about this need to get their head checked. I'm saying this as a warning because I'm sure that no one wants to put up with sick puppies who find it neccessary to mask their fear with a bad sense of humour.

    Okay, now that I have the nastiness out of the way, I will reitterate that I send all my hope and prayers to whatever deity will listen to those affected.

    I haven't heard any jokes about it but I felt just as rotten when I saw footage of Palestinians celebrating over what had hapenned.
    PL & I were watching a video when we got a call from my mum telling us to turn on the telly. The first thing we saw was footage of the second tower collapsing since that had hapenned only moments before. I was stunned and still find it hard to believe.
