Ther was over three-thousand people killed and six-thousand people injured in these attack.       As a kid, I heard about 911 every year,  but I never really understood the attacks until I read various accounts. After reading numerous articles on the acts of terrorism, I contemplated what would have been going through my head if I had been in the Twin Towers.
