9/11: One Day in America

Dreadful and horrific. What all the people in the buildings, bystanders, fire department, and the police department had to endure that terrifying day is unimaginable. The videos are stomach piercing, and the interviews are painful... this documentary is one of a kind.

At 62-years of age there's a few defining events in American History I've witnessed. Even the death of a beloved president pales in comparison to the carnage of 9/11. Being a witness to both with my earliest, and amazingly, quite clear recollection being that I was watching TV on the day President Kennedy was assassinated (actually telling my mother who was doing housework that President Kennedy had been shot to her disbelief). I can say this is America's darkest day in my lifetime and maybe entire history.

The above being said I say to all: never forget. This very well-done documentary may be the best memorial to never forgetting as well as seeing the courage of those on the front line. I cannot say enough superlatives about this series. It is important history and a very important part of keeping the memory of it for future generations. See this. You will be moved to the point of tears I feel almost certain.

And this is of every documentary out there no matter what it was about. Very well told in "real time" from the survivors of ground zero, many if not all I've never seen in another 9/11 documentary. The raw footage was scary, sad, intense but also heroic, inspiring, and educational. Finally a documentary that focuses on the entire day. Not just New York (albeit that was the hardest impact). I've never This brought a whole new light on that day 20 years ago.

It is the best documentary of 9/11 . I thought I had heard everything about what happened that day.

We will never forget .🙏🏼

I have never seen a documentary with this much detail and human stories. It is very intense and upsetting. You really must decide if you can handle it before you watch. If you do watch, you better have a comedy ready right after. It does not show gore and carnage but witnesses hold nothing back describing what they saw.

You'll definitely want to hug your loved ones after this. I think most people will want to be a kinder human after watching this.
