On the day of September 11,2001 4 planes were hijacked and crashed, so many lives were lost.19 Islamic extremist easily smuggled knives and other weapons onto the planes. More than 3,000 people lost their lives. It was on a Tuesday morning at 8:45 am when a jet flew into the north tower of the World Trade Center and just 18 minutes after ,flight 175 flew into the south tower. Right then and there they knew America was under attack. Not only was the World Trade Center attacked but so was the Pentagon. Flight 77 , 64 people on board at 9:37 am 6 hijackers crashed the plane into the pentagon and about 136 people were killed. Another plane that had been hijacked was flight 93 the people on there were aware of the attacks from the last 3 planes and took over and tried to stop them they crashed into an empty field Learned about these attacks when i was I the 4th grade and till this day it still makes me sad so many lives were lost.
