    I can't believe it has been 10 years already it's gone SO fast, it's weird to think that half the members on this forum probably wont even remember it properly because they'd of been too young. I would've been 8 and I can still remember it as if it was yesterday watching it on the news all day.

    I was in Year 4 when this happened. I remember an assistant teacher getting a phone call telling her that America was under attack.

    The IT Technician from my primary school set up Sky News in the computer room so we all went there to see what actually was happening.

    10 years tomorrow has soon flew by.

    Has anybody been watching Rise: Rebuiling Ground Zero this week?

    RIP.

    Great blog there, Adam. Terrible, terrible day. The world certainly changed when this happened. I don't believe the conspiracy theories and tbh most conspiracy theories are just that - theories. Wishing the USA a peaceful memorial day.

    I was only 5 when this happened so nop, do not remember it, I just knew something terrible happened.

    I watched the videos on youtube and saw the planes going for the towers and I just couldn't really believe someone did this, someone who could be so evil.

    Just insane.

    RIP to all who died and my thoughts will be with them and their families tomorrow.

    yeah i was 8 years old. remember coming home to my childminders house and seeing it on tv - the look of horror on my childminders and her daughter's face is one i'll never forget. i came home in time to see footage of the south tower collpasing. i didn't really fully understand it at the time but as i got older the magnitude of its effect has been understood.

    I can remember it being on every tv channel as either a scrolling newsbar or coverage, I just got home from school after the 2nd tower had collapsed. I remember going on habbo that evening as well and all the memorial/chat rooms dedicated to it. 20+ habbos in an empty room just discussing it, especially the US habbos that were online at the time with the odd one saying 'My mom's friend lost her brother' etc.


    The documentaries on it are awful but I cant stop watching if theres one on.

    RIP to all the lives lost...

    I can remember being devastated that CBBC was cancelled because of it (I was young)

    Then I realised how devastating it was, but a lot of things with it just don't see to add up which is why there are so many conspiracy theories.

    I would have been 7 and remember it plainly.

    My thoughts go out to everyone who was effected.
