On September 11th 2001 four planes where hijacked. Two planes crashed into the World Trade Centers, one into the Pentagon and one crashed 125 miles from Washington DC in Pennslavania. When the two planes crashed into the World Trade Centers in New York the whole city was smoke. It caused alot of pollution and damage.The plane that went to the pentagon took out like half the building! There was pieces over the rode. I have drove by the pentagon and the rode is like streets here it was a highway/ interstate with like four lanes on each side. That is a total of eight lanes that pieces flew over!
The last plane was headed towards the White House authorities assume and that would have been far wrose then the crash in the middle of nowhere. In the crash the was only 37 people who died and it would have been wrose if it crashed into the White House. The passangers tried to take the plane back into the control around 9:57 A.M. and the plane crashed at 10:03 A.M.. Atleast they got it back into control and not everyone died. In 2006 they made a movie about this flight called United 96. I personally like this movie.2,976 people died on this day and that is including the hijackers and the firefighters. The hijackers were from Saudi Arabia, 236 hijackers died thankfully, they will never try that again hopefully. 2,740 americans died on this tragic event. Their lives will never be forgotten.
