Death, destruction, charity, salvation, war, money, real estate, spouses, babies, and other September 11 statistics
The initial numbers are indelible: 8:46 a.m. and 9:02 a.m.
Time the burning towers stood: 56 minutes and 102 minutes.
Time they took to fall: 12 seconds. From there, they ripple out.
Bodies found "intact": 291
My sister was a PA and emergency room nurse at a hospital in Brooklyn. Everyone immediately was called in, expecting a wave of casualties.
She said they sat and waited. No ambulances came. After a time, they realized, there wouldn’t be any injured survivors
Many people lined up to give blood that was not needed.
I was one. The hospital just took our information and sent us away. There was no need to take blood that day due to the lack of injured.
Number of Saudi citizens among the Muslim “Martyrs” somehow didn’t make this list.
Sobering statistics.
