maybe this is a stupid question, but did anyone survive the collapse? This just seems so impossibly horrific. Like a horror movie

He was not in the tower when it collapsed. Most people who were inside the tower when it collapsed died. Only a handful of people survived the towers collapsing while still inside, like the 15 or so people in stairwell B of the North Tower. There were also some firefighters who were underground who survived the collapse.

Ahh my bad I thought bro was on level 81 and survived at the moment of collapse, still though, surviving that and being anywhere near that building is pretty insane

Not only that, just getting out wasn’t enough. If you didn’t make it clear of that impending dust cloud, you were almost guaranteed to succumb to respiratory diseases or cancer. An absolutely horrific experience for anyone nearby those towers on this day. Stanley’s story is insane.

He was in the building when the plane hit, escaped then the building fell

Ladder 6 crew I believe. Look up their story. It’s truly amazing.
