I was in New York 18 years ago, in Howard Stern’s radio studio, and saw it unfold though those 6+ hours he stayed on the air…this video is a touching tribute to those who died that day…
I would normally be posting a Whimsical Wednesday post today, but as it’s the 18th anniversary of September 11, I’d like to share this moving tribute by Tom Barry who has a YouTube channel called VidBrats.

Yes, I decided to share it rather than post anything original…not sure if you remember, but I was in New York that day.

I didn’t you were there! That must have been scary. I was at work in Seattle, all of us watching the news unfold on our computers. So shocking and unbelievable.

Alex was filming in Seattle that day, I was in Howard Stern’s radio studio and spent the next week there helping get our LA-based staff back home…

Wow! It must have been something to actually be there during that time. A terrible tragedy yet so many heroic selfless acts afterwards and the whole city coming together.

A lovely share, John. I remember watching this in the office and wondering if it could really be real. It seemed so impossible, especially an attack on the US which I see as the world leader [except for history – you can’t beat the UK for history].
