From the archives: Man who worked on 91st floor at World Trade Center describes how he survived 

No wonder why he was still traumatized speaking.

Exactly, survivors guilt. Everyone who experienced that day will be traumatized for the rest of their lives. They may have survived, but their lives are ruined.

yeah thats gotta be a bad feeling

Never heard of survivors guilt. I truly believe the man is feeling grateful every day of his life that he is alive and living with his family.

​@@brentchristopher7363You've never heard of survivor's guilt? You need to read more.

@@KC-bc2tb I wouldnt care if I lived and other people died. Why would I feel guilty about that? God chose me to live and sadly God chose them to die. I wouldnt feel bad about it. I've been in that situation before and I never felt bad that I lived and others died. I just see it as God's will.

Yeah I was just wondering myself if he's still alive since that interview with all those years ago ... hope he is still thriving .... you're not kidding about him being very blessed , wow .

A lady named Yvette Moreno called her mom to say she had safely escaped from her receptionist job on the 92nd floor of the North Tower at Carr Futures after the plane had hit I wonder if this lady was somehow the only person to have escaped from the 92nd floor and got down to the bottom and out of the Tower. However, she bought a cell phone that in which she called her mom with. Unfortunately, when the South Tower collapsed it fell on her and killed her. We may never know but if she did escape it was the highest floor anyone escaped from

@@whattheheck1000 Well I know most people on the 92nd floor of the north tower were trapped in a conference room they couldn't get out of. None of them realized they could break through the walls because they were sheetrock or plaster board. If it hadn't been for those one guys Frank and Pablo I don't think anyone on the 88th or 89th floor would have survived either. On the 90th and 91st floor it may have been a combination of people finding the stairwell and Frank and Pablo helping them. I think everyone on the 91st floor made it out and possibly even the 90th. There were still a few fatalities from the 88th and 89tn floor. The only thing I could only imagine what would have happened is they may have been stuck in a room. I am not sure if they burned to death, suffocated, jumped to their deaths or died in the collapse. I thought most if not all the people who fell or jumped out were on the impact floors and above. Like I said there was a meeting at Carr Futures on the 92nd floor and that Yvette Moreno was receptionist for that group. So whether she somehow did escape from the 92nd floor it would have been probably a miracle. Type in a Google search on Yvette Moreno. Put something like Yvette Moreno called her mom to say she had safely escaped from her office on the 92nd floor after the plane hit.

@@cubby091398Interesting that you bring up the story of Yvette Moreno. Before hearing her story, I was under the initial assumption that nobody above 91 survived. After hearing her story I thought "oh she probably lied to her mom to calm her down and never actually escaped the building"...but she did. There's a New York Post article, dated 9/29/01, stating that her phone was located in the Bronx after someone purchased it from a guy selling it on the street; they never found the guy (the person who bought it listened to the voicemails on it that Yvette's friends and family had left in case it was found). How could her phone end up in-tact outside ground zero if she never made it out? Less than a week later, on her birthday no less, her body was found under the Vesey Street bridge that connected the WTC plaza to the WFC over the West side highway. Seeing as there are several stories from 91st floor survivors stating that as soon as they reached the North Tower lobby the South Tower collapsed I can only surmise that she was killed by the north tower collapse. This is how I think it happened based on information available and my own speculation: Yvette was on the 92nd floor working as a receptionist at Carr Futures. Most of the offices officially opened at 9AM, clearly people were in the building at their offices before that time, but for a receptionist I can only imagine she would need to be there at 9AM, not earlier like an analyst/trader/broker who wanted to get an early start on a big day ahead. Therefore, I have to assume she wasn't at the front desk of Carr Futures at 8:46. Because if she was, the call her brother received roughly 20 minutes after the first plane hit, would have been of a distressed Yvette explaining that she was alive but trapped on her floor - not of her safely reaching the outside of the building. There is no way that she could have made it out of the building down 92 flights of stairs nearly an hour before the people on the 91st floor finally made it out. So let's say sometime between 9AM and 9:10AM Yvette made it out safely - thats when she made the call. For some reason, she stays at ground zero rather than making it to safety away from the complex. Perhaps, she was injured in the plaza from falling debris and was taken by first responders to the nearest place of refuge...under the Vesey street bridge. Perhaps she stayed to help others (she was studying to be a sociologist/psychologist and wanted to become a counselor for underserved kids with less resources to succeed) and took refuge under the bridge when the south tower collapsed, stayed there in the cloud of dust and debris, and ultimately died 30 minutes later when the north tower collapsed and crushed the bridge above her. As for her phone, seeing as it was undamaged, maybe she gave it to someone to make a call to a loved one seeing as she believed she was safe and already made her call. Maybe that person with her phone survived only to later drop the phone in the street. At the end of the day, it's one of the many mysteries/untold stories of 9/11 that will remain untold forever.

@@ryandesmond5477 There are so many conflicting stories in regards of the 91st and 92nd floor it is almost unbelievable.

It’s amazing how all survivors have that image in mind, they are all traumatized by the faces of those heroes going up in the stairwells, they have all our love, I truly admire those brave and good men

If you survive that collapse your lucky idc where you were located it’s almost impossible to survive a building that big dropping on you like where can you run

@@gemapina8080that’s when I knew they were good to see firefighters with kids wife’s say I signed up to put my life on the line go into that building after seeing all the people running away is a different kind of bravery I’ll be honest as good as I am I don’t think I can go in those buildings that day I would say I quit but not one person quit they all were like brothers if it wasn’t for there presence I guarantee you nobody would hear survived them being there helped to have some order nobody there was clam it was pure chaos but seeing the fire fighters made people feel safe it’s crazy how important these guys is to society that’s why a bad crooked cop should be in prison

Wonder if the 'run for daylight' guy is still living.

Ikr

Or if he nosedived at the end hit floor 60 or something and then over 6,000 would have died in total.

Literally, everyone above 91 perished.

If only the kids siding with terrorists could understand.

@@siameseblue4824 not calling you out but you dont mean muslims do you?

@@a0a0-jt in recent years there has been a concerted effort by Muslim regimes and by the Russians to sell Americans these dumb stories where we’re expected to believe that US Intelligence & government made themselves look incompetent, almost tipped the US int9 economic crisis and almost crippled US military command & control, for… and /or that there never were planes and nobody really died - reasons for these nefarious frauds never given. Older people who personally remember the day don’t swallow these very belated stories so easily, but a lot of younger people are unbelievably gormless. For instance “why do all these cameramen hide their faces?” (Thinks selfies were always the main point of videos.) They find everythung from poor picture quality to uploading “years later”, strange or weird (i.e. suspect). Good picture quality is also suspect. People switching off from recording is suspect, and people who happen to be pointing their camera at the right spot at the right time, supect. Professional cameramen in Manhattan - suspect. Amateurs carrying cameras on a weekday morning - suspect. Every possible permutation is touted by weaponising such astonishing ignorance.

@@siameseblue4824 If only you knew what a terrorist actually is.

​@@a0a0-jt he didn't say "Muslims", he said terrorists, which they were. Still, the action was called by a radical Muslim who considered the US to be an enemy. This idea is rooted from his Muslim views. Not every Muslim is a terrorist, of course, but in this case, he was, and Islam is known for the amount of terrorism it's caused.

I near have heart attack thinking of it

And it’s like a split second, no time to react

I think in this case you don’t even think you are just in this moment acting of your instincts, you are just existing untill you are no more

That was the second tower not the first. And was probably the 80th floor, not the 91st. There was a man who climbed down the western face of the north tower and made it down about 10 floors or so. He fell when the south tower collapsed.

How they did it because the outside of it is all metal and even and slippery.

​@@daylightdaylight6612He had some kind of rope.

@@daylightdaylight6612there was a giant hole several for several stories

​@@BillyBongso terrible and so amazing he made it that far down outside the windows

There was another man in the other tower that said when he was coming down he could see the fuselage of the plane in the hole it had made. This would be approximately 9 minutes after it hit. The fire had been raging the entire time flames were already billowing out of the building. There is no way he saw anything thru that hole.

Look up George Sleigh, another 91st floor survivor, who watched it coming at him before impact

@@spikenomoonyeah let’s take your word over the guy who was actually there.. lol

​@@MadGunny Exactly.

One of the highest survivors from 91st floor.

@@missJolie85 yes!

There were a couple of people that made it out from his floor. There was a female British painter that made it out, too.

​@@chriss3115 The U.S. was consumed with thinking about what happened to our people, tho! That was OUR focus (*though)

@@R.Oates7902Why are you arguing about this? The other comment was correct. Just days after 9/11 everyone I knew was still crying over such a pointless and horrific loss of life. Maybe you weren’t old enough to be there but these two people crying at this tragedy was not unique or the marker of a “special person” with abnormally high or somehow respectable amounts of empathy. I have appreciation for what the two people in the video are expressing, but not for your comment.

So once you tards really act it takes 5 10 mins

And he also had to deal with 90 floors of people jamming into the stairway in front of him. A human traffic jam.

I couldn’t work in that building . 9/11 has paralyzed me with fear of working in skyscrapers

30 minutes to descend 40 floors seems incredibly long and a case where you might want to consider laying off the Big Mac's, healthy adult individuals should be able to descend 40 floors in no more than 10-15 minutes.

@@KP-wt8qr certainly when by yourself. When you’re with several hundred others it takes some time. Cool story bro.

Woow please tell more!

Glad you were given so many more years to experience this reality. It is surreal to respond to your post. You were there! Survivors often say that they made it out after being presented with the one opportunity and made the decision.

Wow, your story should be heard.

Im glad you are safe. All my love my friend. There isnt a day that goes by i dont think about that day. I lived in IL my whole life. I remember being a high school student in class watching everything happening on tv. My heart goes out to everyone effected from this day. I couldnt imagine going to work and not seeing or hearing from my family ever again. God bless you.

What is your name?

That's indeed what his wife says later on in the video.

How did he die immediately if he wasn’t in the impact zone?

Tell me more about please 🙏🏻

From the 90th floor up in WTC TWINS did people work in offices? ChatGPT People generally did not work in offices above the 90th floor in the World Trade Center (WTC) Twin Towers. The upper floors of the towers, especially above the 90th floor, were primarily occupied by technical equipment, mechanical floors, telecommunication infrastructure, and other building systems necessary for the operation of the entire complex. The limited access and logistical challenges, such as longer elevator travel times and evacuation procedures, made these upper floors less suitable for typical office spaces. Therefore, offices for employees and tenants were predominantly located in the lower and middle floors of the Twin Towers, where accessibility and convenience were better suited for regular office activities.

@@pavlarat Yes people worked in offices above the 90th floor. Cantor Fitzgerald had their offices from floors 101-105 and lost 658 employees in the north tower. Marsh & McLennan were in floors 93-100 and lost 295 employees in the North tower. Aon had offices in floors 98-105 in the south tower and lost 175 employees. There were others and that's generally where most people died.

Michael Richard's was either on the 91 or 92 floor but I think it was the 92nd floor. RIP Michael!

I never heard of anyone who survived that high. We know no one survived from above the 91st floor. All exits were cut off. Maybe you are talking about someone from tower 2. There were 18 survivors from tower 2 above the impact zone around the 80th floor. There were 0 survivors above the impact zone of tower 1, 91st floor.

sources?

I thought the same thing. He looks to be at least 60 so that would make him mid 80’s now…

I wonder the same

Even someone with an old sport injury who was in great shape would struggle with 90 floors.

Adrenaline is a heck of a motivator.

What building collapsed?

The church of the Bush family

@@Larry26-f1w Bush is a moron but has nothing to do with these islamic attacks.

I bet many had nightmares or premonitions dreams before it happened... some people probably repeatedly. .

I did, too, and I wasn't in New York at the time... I had an eerie feeling in my gut that something bad was going to happen in this country... I kinda have that same feeling now with regards to Election Day this year.

He is Mcguyver. Aka Richard Dean Anderson

Do you really think the firefighters knew it was going to collapse? I think no one could imagine that

there's absolutely no way they would send in firefighters if collapse was imminent. In fact, they immediately ordered evacuation once the south tower was seen to be leaning. Unfortunately, it was too late.

@@gemapina8080My husband is a commercial architect. He designed skyscrapers. I was on the phone with him when the second plane hit. He told me they would both collapse & which one would go first,based on where the planes hit. The steel can’t take the heat. The firemen knew. They would have understood the urgency. It’s what they do everyday. God bless & keep them.

@@sheilaeilers4363 props

Nobody knew that there were already planned bombs inside by us govt

@@user-ms4tl2ys4nAlso there could be memorial Bridges or memorial Gardens for anybody who is dead.

Wrong. In the North Tower, Windows on the World was up there with the full breakfast staff as well as over a thousand people working on the other floors.

There are other confirmed survivors from the 91st floor. Nobody above the 91st floor survived.

@blake7871 that's not my point. The stairs were not connected in either building, and most stair cases lead to locked doors that went nowhere, so at some point they would have had to use the crowded elevators. Even when ppl were told to go back so those same ppl had to get back on? U catch my drift. The people who "survived" WERE NEVER IN THERE they may have been around but they weren't in the building.

@@admeliora4822 That's utter nonsense. We have dozens of people who escaped from the 90-91st floors. None of the doors in the stairwells were locked. The only locked door was the door to the roof. Some doors in the stairwells got jammed on the plane's impact, but what you're saying isn't true.

The jet hit 93rd to 99th floor

⁠@@admeliora4822 why would the stairs «not be connected» and «go nowhere»? That makes no sense and would defeat the entire purpose of stairs. This isn’t the Winchester Mystery House we’re talking about.

In Chicago, either the Willis Tower or John Hancock does the 100 story run as a fund raiser. It takes the quickest at least 75 minutes with no stoppages ( people are timed and spaced when starting the race) or backups from others. It took many 90 minutes or more to get out of the North Tower due to people stopping, debris and smoke, first responders on their way up and general confusion. Many were reaching the lobby as the South Tower fell. I've been listening to the survivor stories.

I had to clear The Gas Company Tower in LA for a fire drill, 50 floors with 4 floors added, because we had to venture out through the garage. Even in a steady flow, we hit a backup jam at the 20th floor. It took over 30 minutes, mainly because of the jam. This was in 2009, at the time, all I could think was if this was a real event, we would be in a bad spot.
