My cousin was one of a team of people who helped with the cleanup. He helped clear the subway levels for a year. He is one that got cancer and thankfully survived but many many on his team got sick and never got better and most of them have lost their lives. Get checked. Get checked regularly! The sooner your illness is found and treated the better your chances are
This man has risked his career and professional reputation in front of an angry, bloodthirsty mob, to POTENTIALLY protect the people he admired. I don't know if he's as much of a hero as those who've charged into the towers, but he's certainly up there.
So glad you cared about the firefighters families. The first thinker of this was needed. I wish the world were more together like that with the new traumatic life . Wonder where everyone at this time, if they stayed or left.
I was like "wow Michael is very well spoken" and then I realized he was a lawyer haha Such an amazing story!! It's incredibly inspiring to hear people going out of their way to help others like this. Thank you so much for all you guys are doing to help these victims 🙏
@@mtio2807 Yeah, he's a sales guy through and through. But those terrier-like qualities are what enabled him to fight for his clients' compensation when they were dying, or just not able to take on the legal field themselves. He's like a bantamweight in the ring!! /One of his FDNY clients in in this thread, thanking Michael. I suspect there's alot of love for the man who won't shut up 😃
OMG...can you imagine the sheer terror and agony of not knowing if your spouse is alive because she worked in the exact bullseye site of a terrorist attack! His relief must be profound, but I'm sure his guilt is heavy too
This mans story is literally a prime example about the irresponsibility of the press. They have no idea what they’re talking about probably 75% of the time, which is my belief of why they only present part of the story to only give one side a “bad name”.
@Karin And son I liked the early point - when Michael Barasch said representing those first 1500 FDNY, and other first responders, was the most satisfying work he'd ever done to that point. It's interesting that he wasn't a high achieving law student. But he's a fighter and a scrapper for his clients. Also a real people person, and a brilliant networker. And lastly - a true blue New Yorker. You can tell it hurt when the press went for him after those first ninety days. But he clearly does not carry grudges - and used his relationship with the press to get them onside for Jimmy Androgheda's (?so) family.👏
@Guy Webster Press would've sold alot of papers that week on the basis of a beat-up. It's an unpleasant reality that tv news, press and other sources experience a surge in business reporting mega-disasters. Might they try to capitalise at those times?!!? Not for me to answer 😉
People don’t understand the costs not covered by insurance can really hurt at family after a Cancer battle. I went through treatment with excellent insurance for two years. We used our savings and ran up charge cards to the tune of $60,000 before I hit major medical., which included medication not covered. I needed to self administer 2 shots a day. Cost $225.00 per day. Injectables we’re NOT covered my my insurance. Just one example. Please please please register even if your healthy. Do this for your family. If you die, your husband/wife is responsible for debts. You may never use this 🙏🏼. But why would you turn down free insurance???? WHY????
Hey, there's not a cloud in the sky It's as blue as your goodbye And I thought that it would rain, on a day like today. Hey, there's not a cloud out in sight It's as blue as your blue goodbye And I thought that it would rain, the day you went away.
@@pierina1705 These are song lyrics by Canadian born singer-songwriter Wendy Matthews. If you google "On the day you went away" you will hopefully be able to watch/listen to Wendy perform her song. It's a very clean and clear song, with a haunting quality. (Wendy has long been a resident of Australia, and has written hits for other performers. Australia is very lucky to call her their own.)
Shelly, The work you are doing with these oral histories of 9/11 is SO important! Thank you for recording these! This simply MUST become part of the 9/11 history because as late as 22 years later THERE ARE STILL PEOPLE SUFFERING. THANK YOU, thank you to you and to Michael for doing everything you can to preserve these memories. This was an absolutely terrible event all so the bankers world wide (all wars are bankers wars) and the military industrial complex could MAKE MONEY from the SEVEN PREPLANNED WARS THEY WANTED TO GET US IN. This event was, according to PNAC (look it up on wiki) “The New Pearl Harbor”. Look at the people who signed that document. THEY are RESPONSIBLE for this event.
You did the right thing. The first responders and all others (kids from Stuyvesant HS, etc.) who lived in the area and went home when the city and EPA judged the health danger was gone after 2 weeks.
Cheryl Brunelle I was in that Builing while he was making this vidoe and he still has not paid me nor helped me and he had my 9/11 case! #BlackLivesMatter
It's sad that all theses people didn't get the help they needed and still fighting today. There shouldn't be a time table for that. People bodies affect people different ways. We need to still help thoses out there still needing this help
I knew from day 1 they were lying about the air quality from the minute they said it. Gave my ex husband and his friends masks to wear, they all laughed at me and wouldn’t wear the masks
I have a family member who was visiting NYC on 9/11. Is there any way those people will receive the compensation for health issues? They were on a ferry at 8am. They were held at the hotel a few days. I am only looking out for their wellbeing, in this question. I'd so appreciate any information to give them. Thanks for all you guys & gals, helping so many. Thanks for this series of stories, Shelli. I'd like to hear your story from that day as well. My best to you all. RHE 9/13/21
To Koogle: I don't think that's fully accurate. Everything I've seen says it's for everyone. Everyone who show proof of presence & has 2 witnesses, is eligible. I've since found out that the person I asked for, was not there. Someone told the story but very wrong. I do know a girl in Queens. My 1st cousin has now retired from the Metropolitan Art Museum. I'm not sure how close either of them were. I've only been to NYC twice. Once on I-95N, in a tractor trailer and then in April 2005. Went to the pit site but have no concept of the area. Thanks anyways.

Nobody mentions this but there are 100-200 kilograms (multiply that by 2.2 for pounds) of Depleted Uranium in modern commercial airliners. DU is very dense and thus very heavy without taking too much space and is used as ballast in large planes, usually near/inside the tail of the airframe.

There is no way jet fuel keep those fires burning that long ! No way it could get those fires that hot ! Jet fuel is the cheapest crap of all fuels and burns out quickly!
Large open offices with plenty of desks etc in them. Soft furnishings, flooring and bodies kept those fires burning. Instead of commenting angrily on here, try some research and stop acting like you know everything.
Jet fuel burns at 1517 degrees and there was approximately 90,000 liters of fuel in each plane. As someone else stated, other combustible materials such as carpet, wood and paper continued to burn after the fuel was exhausted. Those materials allowed the temperature to rise to a point where the steel in the buildings was weakened.
@@100secondworkout obviously you are a conspiracy junkie. Believe what you want but have respect for the victims and their families. Find a Q group to spread your nonsense.
Anyone with eyes, normally connected to a visual cortex, all functioning normally, can see burning. If you don’t get that then of course the technology will always be unknown to you.
@@thesceptic1018 Hi Sceptic! Yes, there were things which burned, but burning is not what brought down seven buildings made of structural steel and prefabricated concrete. I should have been more specific for you. After all, I know that there are people like you who want to believe things based on cherry picking. Are you suggesting that fire or heat was the reason for 7 buildings falling from the top down?
