What was it like when 9/11 happened in your country?

>inb4 zoomers say they weren't born yet

they weren't born yet

I can't remember. I was literally a babbling toddler back then.

30 something were kid/baby, 20 something were unborn.
They were fun and gaming and doesnt care about 300 CEO being roasted

>>212026394 (OP)
I was almost 6 but I don't remember it. Maybe my parents didn't want to tell me because I'd be scared?

>>212026475
Literally nobody cares about 9/11 except for Amerimutts whose entire childhood was so safe and worry-free that a terrorist attack that killed less than 1/100,000 of America's population was the most note-worthy event of their childhoods.

I only remember being annoyed that they stopped my morning cartoons to show these dogshit smoking buildings for 6 hours nonstop.

most people laughed and cheered. i was like 5 yo and remember coming back form school and there were broadcasts from cuba, venezuela etc with people partying and celebrating like they won the world cup.
even back then I thought it weird that a building like that would collapse so smoothly on itself

>>212026394 (OP)
Weird. Probably the last time the majority of the US public was united in some sentiment and weren't easily distracted by trivial garbage.
It was like initial shock, sadness, then a bit of anger, and then hope. In that order really. But some held onto the anger to this day even. They're no fun.

You go home from school early and your parents are home and watching tv... Not that big a deal

Was in college. Rumors on morning bus, first class teacher had no info so we just had class
Went back to dorm after early morning class and saw people watching the second plane hit right when I walked into the lounge.
Everyone was angry. Saw a Middle Eastern guy pretending to be Mexican. Muslims on campus immediately made it about themselves and how everyone was "looking at them accusingly all the time now."
I tried to join the army, but had a tattoo they didn't like in a place they didn't like. Had an existential crisis and moved to Florida instead. Eventually got over it.

i was 6 months old unc

It was good. Better than today. Kids were playing outside, only on the screen between coming home tired and dinner time.
Apparently trillions of dollars had just dissappeared from the US treasury the day before 9/11 but that wasn't picked up by the news the following day.

I remember playing sick that day so that I could play smash bros. Mom demanded the TV and kicked me off to watch it. Had no idea what the deal was.

I was negative 6 months when it happened, boomer

>>212026394 (OP)
kids played outside and socialized
girls dressed normally like jeans and shirt
there werent cameras everywhere, it was unusual to catch something on camera
the word "terrorism" became a daily thing adults would say a lot

>>212026394 (OP)
Was glued to the TV for a few hours, but I got bored of the whole thing a while after the demolition charges went off

>>212026394 (OP)
TV channels stopped what they were doing and switched t live footage.

>>212026394 (OP)
Was a kid just back from school, playing with some toys. Dad was watching it in TV and i really didnt understand what any of this means. After a while i got annoyed that he wouldnt switch channel to cartoons, because it was getting boring.

>>212026394 (OP)
The adults were the ones making a big deal out of it.
When the first plane hit the tower it was 9AM here, so I was at school. That day we were let off two hours early due to an absent teacher. I arrived home around 10AM just in time to see the second plane hit live.
I didn’t have much idea of what the fuck was going on, at first I thought it was an accident. When the second plane hit, I thought they were replaying footage or something from the first plane, until the people on TV started freaking out.

Idk i was 3 years old. I wasnt thinking shit.

>>212026394 (OP)
i don't remember too much of it, i was 8 years old.
i was watching TV, then whatever i was watching was cut off and it switched to the news, and this came on, i yelled for my mom because i didn't really understand what was happening
and that's about the extent i remember

>>212026394 (OP)
i remember we got out of school early and when i got home my parents and neighbours were all in the living room watching it and freaking out

>>212026394 (OP)
We lived in Argentina. It was Teacher's Day so no school. I was sleeping and got a call from mom, who was at work, and she told me to turn on the TV. Back then I was like 8 but was already familiar with the twin towers because I was a huge skyscraper nerd, so I did and watched the whole thing (if I remember right I caught the second plane crash). Watched the two towers collapse etc.
I'll admit for me it was like watching a movie. I could see my parents thought it was something serious, but I spent that afternoon drawing buildings on fire. I still have those drawings somewhere.

I was playing CS, and somebody told me to turn on the TV through the game text chat.

I remember the face of Bush Jr. On the TV while he was in some sort of kindergarden, his facial expression was like he has no idea what was happening or how to react, very similar to a person with down syndrome.

>>212026394 (OP)
Everyone was upsetti.

>>212026394 (OP)
All i can think of was chicken nuggets for lunch

>>212026394 (OP)
My parents were still in high school at that time yet..

What the fuck are you doing here wasting your youth?

>>212026394 (OP)
It was an average tuesday, I was playing Perfect Dark coop at my best friend's house when his brother came running telling us to switch to any channel. At first it was being reported as an accident but after the second plane and the one that hit the pentagon, talk of terrorism started to surface. It seemed unreal like a movie.

The cartoon bloc got interrupted for some boring news of 2 plens colliding with buildings
I will never forget

>>212026394 (OP)
I was 4 and when I saw it on tv I thought it's a common accident

Why are Brazilians so obsessed with lol superman. And is lol superman real?

>>212029103
I genuinely have no idea what are you're talking about. Are you a bot?

>>212029213
lol superman is an alleged lost media video
it's a close-up of a 9/11 jumper hitting concrete that circulated in early video streaming sites

>>212029255
First time I'm hearing of this. I've seen stills of people jumping posted here on 4chan, but I never even heard of actual footage of people hitting the ground.
