The 1 tower was 1,368 feet tall, the 2 tower was 1,362 feet tall. They were the tallest towers in the world until they were surpassed by the Sears Towers in Chicago. The Twin Towers were known and loved by NY and many other states and areas. Along with the Statue of Liberty, the towers showed newcomers freedom, and that they were about to enter the land of the free. On September 11th, 2001 two hijacked airplanes were purposely crashed into both towers.

It took approximately 3 years to fully clean up the wreckage of the two towers. People claimed to have still smelled smoke on their cloths, house, animals, in the air, etc.

15 of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. Most of the 9/11 training took place in areas like Germany, and the United States (Florida, Arizona, etc). The Taliban, the 'government' of Afghanistan at the time, had nothing to do with the Sept 11 attacks. In fact, the U.S. Congress was funding the Taliban up through, I believe, May of that year, 2001, just months before the 9/11 attacks.
