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.
Both buildings (North and South Tower) were 110 stories - at the time the highest that could be built - becasue water had to be pumped to the top floors for bathrooms and fountains - and pumps were not that strong/cost effective when they were completeld in the early 1970's.
Rescue workers found and rescued a total of 18 people from the rubble of the Twin Towers after the September 11 attacks. The last survivor, a police officer named Will Jimeno, was pulled from the debris about 27 hours after the towers collapsed. Unfortunately, the search and recovery efforts also revealed the tragic loss of nearly 3,000 lives in the attacks.
