- Thirty years after terrorism first struck the World Trade Center, survivors, victims' relatives and first responders gathered to remember the deadly 1993 bombing that foreshadowed the September 11 attacks.
The explosion in an underground parking garage killed six people, including a pregnant woman. More than 1,000 people were injured. Tens of thousands fled in a harrowing evacuation that highlighted the challenges of clearing out some of the world’s tallest buildings in a fiery emergency. The blast also served as a warning of Islamic extremists’ yearning to destroy the trade center’s twin towers.

There was a unborn baby also
This event if successful would have been worse than 9/11
@@Mimi-hn6iv The plan was to topple the north tower over into the south tower. Considering the time of day, the buildings would have been full and there would have been no time to react and evacuate. Had the van been parked about 20 feet closer to the foundation, the plan would have succeeded.
@@Mimi-hn6iv the 1993 bombing attack happened much later in the day when both towers were relatively full opposed to 9/11 happening early in the morning before everybody reported to work for the day. If the attackers plan (to have the bomb's explosion collapse 1 tower into the other) had come to fruition everybody in both towers would've been dead right then and there since there would've been pretty much no chance for any kind of evacuation. Many other bystanders on the street and in other surrounding buildings likely would've been killed as well depending on where the falling towers may have landed. It's honestly scary thinking about how many could've potentially died that day. As bad as 9/11 truly was the 1993 attack would've been far more deadly had it fully succeeded.
@@KramdensdeliciousMarshall Was it really this close? Gosh. Can't imagine an alternate reality where 9/11 wouldn't happen but we would still have to witness the towers falling down. I bet we would get much less footage of that event too
As a German who was almost 4 years old when 9/11 happened, I never knew about the 1993 bombing until I heard Biggie Smalls rap something along the lines of "blow up like the world trade" in one of his songs. I knew that he was dead by 9/11 so I did some research because I was pretty sure that he couldn't have predicted the future.
It's also so intriguing to see how people helped or tried to comfort one another in the aftermath of 9/11. I doubt that the same thing would have happened in Germany, at least not in this scale.
I Googled those lyrics one day many years ago outta curiosity since I knew Biggie died roughly 4.5 years before 9/11, before that I didn't even know about the original 1993 bombing attack.
Yes Biggie, was rapping about the 93 attack he wrote Juicy not long after the bombing.’
That song was Called Juicy ...
Yes they were trying to drag America in a lot sooner in 1993 and the consequence of the recession that they were trying to exploit and over exaggerate. They were probably using Iraq as the smokescreen as it happened in 2003. US was lucky to dodge out while it much less prepared after being last iconic autarkic power left no question.
My mom was pregnant with me at the time of the bombing. She later told me that she never felt safe afterwards
I don't know what was the whole hate against the world trade center
Maybe jalousy🙁
People didn't like the design of them, that is why they tried to take them down, and eventually succeeded at it, obviously. 🙃
@@ranchius is that true ? :v
If so why TF do we still have the Twins Silloette as a Poster child for the attacks like it’s satire,
Also why wait 20 - 30 somthin years to actually do it ? FOH
@@mrandrossguy9871 Actually yeah, most New Yorkers hated the design of them before 9/11, but it wasn't the cause of 9/11 ( obvious sarcasm ). An architecture critic in the 1960s remarked that the buildings looked like the boxes that the Empire State Building and Chrysler Building came in, which was a spot-on observation. But to be fair, pretty much all post-war architecture was aesthetically soulless, not just them.
@@ranchius I bet you think the NeW one is soulful ?🤢
I had been living in the us and that haunted the history
Well as the old saying goes if at first you don't succeed use an aeroplane next time
🤣
Broooo💀
I never knew this happened…💔
Today marks the 3rd anniversary of the covid terrorist attack
take it easy boomer
Haha🤣
@@artie649 I’m 15.
@@tvviewer4500even worse lmfao
As a 1 year old I'm glad I didn't live through that
Man just a few month's before so many of us were born just for us to watch the towers fall when we are 7/8 absolutely crazy and heartbreaking
I remembered when this happened they the FBI was flying one of the people in a helicopter over the building and they told him it was still there. He told them they will get his utter belief in his cohorts would finish the job
Full of shit.
I often tell this story, no one remembers that.
Woah even 2Pac, Biggie, and Eazy-E lived long enough to see this attack! Never Forget!
Biggie actually referenced this attack in a song. It was in arguably his biggest song ever "Juicy", he said "time to get paid, blow up like the World Trade". Nobody made a big deal about it when he released that song in late 1994 (well over a year after the 1993 bombing of the WTC) but I have a feeling that kind of line would've gotten him in trouble if released today.
@@coreyrowe4119Guess you never heard Jay Z freestyle 911.
@@coreyrowe4119more so..as years passed, then subsequently after 9/11, they’d just bleep out the lyric..they had already been doing for some time but after 9-11 they started doing it permanently.
@@Jusbklyn79”I dropped the same day as the Twin Towers”
You’re talking about that freestyle on a Clue tape..at a concert when he dropped that..
@@NeoNitty While the World Trade line on "Juicy" was censored out for the longest time it seems like that line has slowly been allowed back in as it originally was anytime I hear it on the radio these days.
R.i.p
I'm not trying to sound racist or anything but who was trying to put a bomb they're and was it one of those al queada dudes
Naw, the CIA hadn’t created Al Qaeda yet.
But I believe the culprit they nabbed was Ramzi Yousef…
Yea, you read it right…
When George Bush atrack
Well, at least we can see that you went to the same school as him…
And…The borders still open unsecured.
what do you mean?
Was the FDNY white hat at the beginning putting his arm around a geared up fure fighter fire chief phifier (spelt wrong) from the 9/11 video made by the french film brothers? Looks like that chief but 30 years younger. I just watched a whole historical docu-series on 9/12.
17seconds in that fire fighter officer with the white hat.
Soon it will be 30 years since 9/11
Chicago won't clean that shit up.
This is where my sister survived that bombing.
Came home, pull a soap and black stuff wall on her clothes.
LETS REMEMBER THIS BUT LETS FORGET ABOUT SLAVERY.
The hypocrisy of the racist yt man..👴🏻
To remember slavery you have to remember the political party that owned the slaves, the Democrats
@@loganbaileysfunwithtrains606 This is why everyone wants to NUKE America, White people are fighting over which Side of politics their on, Blue or Red even though its their own people, they’re divided . While they try to push for legalization of pedophilia , and try to push their narrative all over the world with thier conquering spirit.
This one event to remember in one day?!?!
slavery is talked about all the time what the fuck are you talking about?!?!?
