World Trade Center tower two falls to the ground, early September 11, 2001. Both towers have fallen after planes crashed into the buildings.

One of the World Trade Center towers burns behind New York's Brooklyn Bridge September 11, 2001. In the worst attack on American soil since Pearl Harbor, three hijacked planes slammed into the Pentagon and New York's landmark World Trade Center on Tuesday, demolishing the two 110-story towers that symbolize U.S. financial might.

Pedestrians and police run as a tower of the World Trade Center collapses after two planes crashed into the complex September 11, 2001. Loss of life is expected to be catastrophic from the collapse of the giant towers where some 50,000 people work.
