No one knows or can say for certain how many people actually survived the attacks on the towers. After the first plane struck the South Tower (the second tower hit), only 14 people below the impact and 4 above were able to escape. Most were told to return to their offices and wait for assistance. A total of 23 people were rescued from the rubble after the towers collapsed. There were many more who survived the collapse, but were unrecoverable before they died from their injuries.

What is known from Port Authority records of the turnstile counters below the Towers is that an average of 14,154 people were working in the Towers at the time they were struck.

How many people from the World Trade Center North Tower survived on 9-11?

Around 3,000 people survived the twin towers crashing from what I heard. Actually its 2,995 people from the twin towers and additional 100 from the other 2 planes that hit the pentagon and that almost hit the white house. What i mean by almost is that the people figured out that the plane was hijacked and they stopped the plane but they hit a feil. Nobody on any of the planes survived.


Was it okay for September 11 attacks?

No it wasnt ok on September 11. Alot of innocent people were killed on that day. It was so sad for all people, but I dont know why those people that destoryed the twin towers for a reason. But we never did nothing to them. I think the people that destoryed the twin towers were mean, stupid, and were idots for destoying the innocent people!Well, if you need to ask this question, you have neither witnessed it nor seen it on television. The September 11 attacks were atrocities that murdered many innocent people. These acts were not justified. It was different from all other acts of terrorism because America, as a whole, watched in horror as other Americans died live on television before their eyes. We don't know to this day what could have been done to ameliorate the problem, but we do know that these attacks were absolutely unnecessary and definitely "not okay."
