The Miracle of Stairwell B

9/11: The Miracle Of Stairway B

A firefighter makes his way through the wreckage dust

It was the most incredible story of 9/11; how 12 fire-fighters, a police officer and an office worker survived inside the North Tower of the World Trade Centre as it collapsed on top of them. In this one-hour film the survivors describe hearing the floors above them giving way, one after another. Convinced that they were about to die they shared what they assumed were their last thoughts. They then endured burial under half a million tons of debris but were able to contact the outside world when all hope seemed lost. Eventually they emerged into the post-apocalyptic landscape of Ground Zero, the only survivors to walk out of the wreckage.
