    50Minutes.com provides a clear and engaging analysis of 9/11. At 8.46am on the morning of September 11th 2001, the first hijacked plane hit the World Trade Center’s North Tower.

Almost 3000 people died that day; the 9/11 attacks were the worst terror attacks on US soil in history and changed America forever.
