NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. Like most people I first witnessed the tragic event on the television. It was in the morning before school started that day, and my brother told me to turn on the t.v. I'm definbetly not proud of my reaction at first, becuase I just didn't really understand what was going on, maybe it was because I was used to seeing that sort of thing in movies. When I went to school everybody was talking about it, and then it began to directly effect me. There was this one boy in my class, and he was saying that his sister was in new york so he was really afraid. All I could really do being in California, so far away from New York was witness the attacks over and over again on T.V, and all the frantic people running in the streets. The whole thing just seemed so surreal to me, even though it was actually taking place. I remember my mom and I bought some rememberence bracelets that went towards the fund, and for support for the fire fighters. All this is how i witnessed September 11th.It may not have been in the streets of New York, actually seeing the fallen towers and debre, I was just watching with the whole world.
