9/11 questions

I've always wondered a few things and have never gotten any answers.

Did anyone on the floors above the floors where the aircraft struck survive?

Did anyone on the floors where the aircraft struck survive?

Did anyone on the roof when the buildings collapsed survive?

Did the parking structures below the building collapse, or did they pancake also?

If I recall, and I don't remember which tower, 18 people at or above the impact zone were able to get out.


Did anyone on the floors where the aircraft struck survive?

there are a few stories about these lucky folk. my fave is about Brian Clark and Stanley Praimnath. Google them. Praimnath saw the plane comeing at him. The hijacker tilding at the last moment saved his life. Clark helped him from the wreckage. Praimnath is now a pastor, thankful for what God did for him that day.

Did anyone on the roof when the buildings collapsed survive?

the doors to the roof were locked

Did the parking structures below the building collapse, or did they pancake also?

Not sure but there is a video made that day minutes after the collapse where a woman was asked where she was when it hit an she said she was at work at such an such floor (which was above the impact). The camera guy asked how she was not dead. She just said lucky an walked off. So at least some got down from higher up but how I still dont know.

Could it not be possible, that somehow, she got down the fire stairs, from the top floors, past the damaged floor(s), then down the fire stairs, the rest of the way to get out alive, before the building collapsed?

Do they think she somehow "surfed" the upper floors, to the bottom, during collapse and then walked out?

I had heard that most people that was on the same level as where the airplanes hit were probably instantly incenerated from all the fuel the airplanes were carrying.
