How Many People Died On 9/11?

Answer Question

11 Answers - Sort by: Date | Rating

    The total count of people, who died on 9/11 were 2,976. Out of the fatal victims 236 were foreigners, which makes the total number of Americans who died to 2,740. In a series of orchestrated suicide attacks committed by the Al-Qaeeda, on the morning of September 11, 2001, the victims were mainly civilians.

    On the fateful day, 19 terrorists hijacked 4 commercial passenger jet airlines. Each team of hijackers had a qualified pilot. The hijackers then crashed two of the airliners into the WTC in New York City. One plane (United Airlines Flight 175) hit one tower and the other (American Airlines Flight 11) crashed into the tower two. The third airliner (American Airlines Flight 77) smashed into Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. The fourth plane (United Airlines Flight 93) in which the flight crew and passengers wrestled with the terrorists to take control of the plane, crashed into a field in the proximity of Shanksville town in Pennsylvania.

    All of the 246 people on the planes died. 2605 of the people who died were either in the towers or on the ground.  125 people who died were from Pentagon. Among the fatalities were 343 New York City Fire Department firefighters, 23 New York City Police Department officers, and 37 Port Authority Police Department officers. An additional 24 people still reportedly remain listed as missing. Only about 18 of the people managed to escape in time from the South Tower (2 WTC) before it crashed down.

    This is so sad. If you haven't seen the movie Twin Towers you need to rent it or buy it. It is a really good movie. It is mainly about the firefighters but it shows a lot of stuff. It is amazing.
