@dailymail's TikTok video "On 9/11, former FDNY Lieutenant Joe Torrillo was running past the South Tower, when the second plane flew directly over his head. He immediately realized New York was under attack. When the South Tower came down, it destroyed a nearby hotel and buried him beneath the wreckage, until rescuers found a void and pulled him out. Torrillo later woke up in a New Jersey hospital. The FDNY listed him as missing for three days. This is his harrowing account of surviving September 11.
