On September 11, 2001, the world watched from afar as two terrorist hijacked planes launched unfathomable attacks on the World Trade Center’s Twin Towers in New York City. In the years since, nearly every angle of that tragic day has been revisited in chilling detail, except from the inside out.

102 Minutes Inside the Towers shifts the perspective of the day inward to reveal what people inside the buildings witnessed and overcame to make it out alive. Over the course of 102 minutes, these individuals lived their own unimaginable realities scattered throughout the two buildings. Now, and for the first time ever in this format, they are sharing their unique accounts of what took place on that tragic day and their layered sentiments of fear, heroism, ingenuity, and humanity 25 years later. Through new first-person interviews and carefully crafted visual effects that illuminate their harrowing perspectives, this gut-wrenching special creates a vital historical record of select individuals lived experiences on 9/11 and how they persevered, told moment by moment from the inside out.

102 MINUTES INSIDE THE TOWERS PREMIERES FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 11 AT 8/7c ON THE HISTORY CHANNEL
