Anybody born before 1995 probably remembers where they were and what they were doing the moment they learned the Twin Towers in New York City had collapsed due to a terrorist attack. Sept. 11, 2001 will always be remembered as a day that our first responders emerged as heroes, similar to the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. Almost 3,000 people died as a result of the attacks, whether the day of or because of health complications afterwards. 9/11 is still known as the most deadly terrorist act in world history.
