On the 7th of July 2005 I ran onto the platform at Ladbroke Grove tube station just as the tube trains doors were closing. Someone saw me and held the door open just long enough and just wide enough for me to squeeze onto the train. I was on my way to Farringdon on a Hammersmith and City train, passing through Edgware Road on the way. It was the train behind the one that I was on that got caught in the blast when a bomb went off on a Circle Line train travelling in the opposite direction. The blast hit the same numbered carriage that I traveled in, and would have been in, if I had missed the train I was on. I guess guardian angels are real, because my one held that door open for me on that terrible day.
this video explains it well, unfortunately my grandad tim coulson passed away a few days ago, but he lived his life to the fullest and he was a great man and still is, my heart feels for the other survivors and the victims x
I was in the same carriage as the Kings Cross bomber - I met Tim many times and loved seeing him. He was a lovely, lovely man. I’m so sorry for your loss. His role in saying the names of the deceased every Memorial was done so well.
Me and my dad spent about an hour trying to contact my mom and luckily she was 1 station away from the first train explosion, I know how lucky she was now and I will never take things for granted. Rip to those that lost their lives.
“No one should die alone” The hardest hitting quote I’ve ever heard. Made me tear up given the situation. Thoughts are always with the deceased and relatives.
I am a night support worker for the elderly. We lose people during the night. When we know it's imminent, i always share the time spent with them , with my colleague whenever possible, if their family are not with them. I always say, it's so important that someone is there, as no one should die alone. Even though i Know their deceased loved ones come for them xx
I'm an American watching this and see how identical this was to 9/11 for us. I honestly found myself tearing up at the end realizing just how young Carrie and David were and had their whole life ahead of them. I will have no problem taking note on every July 7 what happened so randomly and senselessly to so many victims. R.I.P. to all the souls that lost their lives that day.
Nice to hear support from the other side of the pond. The whole world was in shock on 9/11 and i remember being stunned when i seen it on the news, unfortuanatly in the UK we have had a long struggle with terror with the IRA and events like the lockerbie bombing on our shores so the 7/7 was nothing new for us, only a new tactic and for another twisted ideology.
From a survivor of the Beirut port explosion that hit the capital of Beirut, Lebanon in August 2020, i show my solidarity with the people of London. From Beirut to London,all the love and peace
May all those who died RIP. 32 of them were British citizens. One victim each came from Afghanistan, France, Ghana, Grenada, India, Iran, Israel, Italy, Kenya, Mauritius, New Zealand, Nigeria, Romania, Sri Lanka, and Turkey. Three victims were Polish nationals, while one victim held dual Australian-Vietnamese citizenship and one held dual American-Vietnamese citizenship
Was a romanian too? I remember i watched this at tv back then i was 15 , and now that i've been last summer in London i ve crossed Algate and King Cross stations a couple of times i never thought those were the station althought i knew there was a major attack in 2005 on London Tube, but as soon as i saw i freak behaving aggressively i reported to staff station cause was not safe he threw a lot of food on the carriage ' s floor.The staff call the cops.
@m3rrysOngstr3ss, what about YEARS before, NYC, in 2001, being TOTALLY shut down after 9/11? Can we PLEASE stop being so "politically correct?" These people are our enemies. Islam teaches that the ENTIRE western world should be destroyed in the name of Allah. These were NOT random attacks.I live in NYC. I witnessed 9/11. I lost friends and neighbors.
My mum was pregnant with me at the time and was on the bus a few minutes behind the one that exploded. My dad was on the underground. I’m so thankful we all survived ❤️❤️
My mum was due to commute to work via the circle line around about the time when it disembarked, but she wasnt feeling well and decided not to go. Its chilling.
The worst and the best of humanity on display, my father was in London that day and I remember the sheer panic when I was unable to contact him until 7pm that night. Thoughts with those lost, pride in those that helped and hopefully at some point we as a people will understand that theres more that brings us together than separates us.
I believe we are all heroes waiting for our moment (which may never come). I don't think I could ever do what he did - talk to a person as he dies. I share his beliefs, but not his emotional strength. But maybe I have a different potential. Maybe I'm the guy who bashes out the windows of a burning car to rescue someone? (Not really a common scenario.) I'm not sure we can ever know what our own heroic potential is until we chance upon that moment when it's really needed. In the moment, maybe I would stay with the dying man until he breathed his last? I can't imagine doing that. I'm just some guy, and I'm kinda lazy and easily scared, but in moments like this, nobody seems to think. They just do what they need to do, and Tim needed to comfort people in a horrific situation. I might run and cower somewhere. I can't know. I did run out of my apartment and chase a man I didn't know out of my building once because he was beating a woman I barely knew in our hallway. I didn't know if he was armed, and I certainly couldn't ever imagine myself doing such a dangerous thing before it happened. I just watched myself running at him toward the door. And I'm just some lazy guy, no one special (believe me) who just did something on impulse. It felt more foolish in hindsight than heroic. It still scares me to think I did that, because it turns out he most likely was armed. She and the police told me a little about the guy over the next few days. He is well known to them. He was a drug dealer, and she was his customer who owed him a whole $70. He had threatened to take her two little boys and kill her while they were waiting for the school bus. Pretty hardcore for $70. I think we just can't know what we would do in an emergency until the moment finds us.
Believe it or not others have plotted and attempted to carry out attacks in England. Only a few years ago a small group of men planned to suicide bomb somewhere but the police took them down
"That morning it didn't matter to any single person whether I was Male or female, what color my skin was,whether I had a faith or no faith at all .All that mattered was that I was a human being. That stayed with me for the last 10 years " Words to live by. 42.40-42.54
I’ve looked for the comment I made five years ago and couldn’t find it But five years later, no longer a London commuter, I have just started my adult nursing degree in Wales. This documentary was my initial inspiration. I don’t believe everything happens for a reason, but I told myself years ago, that I would not have got off that train had I been on it. That was my inspiration to chase this career, from a strange daydream to a reality. I hope those effected by this know that there’s another nurse in this world because of the horrific sacrifice they made. I will never begin to understand their pain.
I remember exactly where I was when the news came through. London was an eerie place that day. We will never forget, we will never surrender. Rip to the victims.
Dami .Yusuph First was America 9/11, 2nd Britain 7/7, France and other European countries are now a new home for terrorists. That's what u get when your greed has gotten to it's highest level, terrorists are not twatts, but the people who funds them to oppose a nation's government to gain access into their resources like America, Britain & Europe are the twatts. Lol
Daniel Vitale it was a strangley bueatiful day ive never seen a sky so blue as 911 and next day i dont know if it was B.C. the only.plane allowed to fly was bin ladens family coincidently? getting all contracts to build usa military bases in the middle east and then that 3rd building fell down but was hit by no plane at all, also OLD rummy announced the day before 911 that 2.3 trillion dollars went missing in iraq and next day investagtors paperwork destroyed by plane and other strange unexplainable things happend that day its amazing how power of denial can make us not ask questions its too big of a event the mind can barely process the fact that it happend
After all these attacks and events and also the virus that is hitting the world right now they still don’t get proper funding and that kills me that the government has all these empty promises about funding
A remembrance to all those who have been killed, not just in London but everywhere else from terrorist attacks. I should have been in the City that morning but by luck was elsewhere in a meeting. As soon as we heard meeting was abandoned. My heart also goes out to those who had life changing injuries and relatives who are still grieving at such a senseless act.
Just learnt that one of my mum’s friend’s friends, Laura Webb, was one of the victims. She was one of the nicest people, apparently. I was only two weeks old when she died.
Never forget this 6th July 2005 was my 18th birthday. My mum, dad and me intended had planned on going to London for a few days to see a show. We couldn't get seats all together so instead of sitting apart we decided to go on the 17th when we could all go together. I will never forget seeing the news on day after realising just how good a decision that was.
I was 14, and friends of mine had just started getting cell phones as 'grade 8 graduation gifts'. I live in Canada, and one friend was in London on a trip. I remember friends texting her trying to get in touch. It was really scary. I think being part of that generation though, and having just come through 911, we were getting used to attacks of that nature. We're totally desensitized now.
I was 7 going on 8 and remember being glued to the TV getting home. the first time I watched the news. Terrifying. still the picture f the bus still haunts me...
Just like me I was about that age when in my country 9/11 happened. I still can't get the burning towers out of my head. :( People wanting to kill others is just awful.
Anonymous Caveman I SURVIVED both attacks... Whilst 3,100 didn't. I would've rather died than have those images locked in my mind. But I didn't, and here I am, with a case of Double Survivors Guilt, and I will never, NEVER FORGET those days... #NeverForget 7/7&9/11
As one of the victims was saying "people were walking like nothing happened", I totally agree with that. I work as a security officer in London and people seem not to care when they come something suspect. Once, I was travelling from work home, I was in the upper deck bus and saw an unattended luggage. I asked everyone in the bus and couldn't find the owner so I went and tell the driver. He just ignored me so I got off the bus. No one else seemed to care. Also all this happened right after the terror attacks in 2017.
One time I found a few bags in the shopping center, without an owner anywhere. I started asking people around whose they were and finally a Lithuanian guest worker showed up. It was his stuff. I felt silly.
For someone to stay and comfort another person while not knowing if it was safe to do so is the ultimate example of humanity and decency. The kindness of ordinary people defeats the evil of these cowardly terrorists.
14 years ago 52 people woke up went to their jobs. They never came back and still haunts me to think that theres still people dying and getting shot in this world. It shocks me to think that People make fun of acts of hate when people are dying. 7/7 will never be forgotten and we will remember the 52 that died innocent people don’t deserve to die.
and the four young men who were working that day but get left out of the death toll because they are called suicide bombers. they were working in a training exercise and were murdered. watch 7/7 Ripple Effect 3
This happened when I was 11 years old in the USA. At the time, I couldn't remember much of what was going on. Just some vague news stories on TV. Honestly until seeing this documentary, I was pretty unaware of what happened that day. Fantastic documentary, thanks so much for showing this. My prayers go out to everyone who was and still is affected by this horrible attack.
Michal Rudowski Most of your news channels covered it poorly. Some even distastefully went straight onto the obligatory light-hearted news story about some bunny. The BBC dedicated the whole of 11th September to coverage of 9/11. Your news channels covered it for a minute.
Same here. I was a 20 year old American in 2005, and have absolutely no memory of this. During the last five days off, I’ve caught up with docs on the Boston bombing, columbine, Virginia tech, the concord crash. A less than positive week off, to say the least.
@@Wazzok1 ... The US news media is crap. They only cover what is on their agenda. I recall these bombings very well. It is likely many Americans were able to get more indepth news on the web. So sorry for the lost loved ones.
This absolutely shattered my heart into pieces. I don’t know what is worse, losing your life like that, or having to live with the memories. Probably the latter. I can’t imagine trauma like that ever leaving someone. I can’t imagine a minute of their lives going by without them thinking back to that horrific tragedy. And the poor poor families of those who perished 💔
I was at home, when I walk into a room and Mum was watching it on the news and that bus wreckage, still in my mind. R.I.P the poor souls who tragically lost their lives that day
I applaud the other commuters that stayed and helped or comforted others. To risk their own lives after such a blast was very heroic. I'd hope if I was in that situation I'd do the same. It was definitely a very shocking time.
my mum was head of the signal room that day - she remembers it vividly and offen says how helpless she felt when coordinating everyone to get as many people as she could out safely. She also told my dad that morning not to come into summer because she just felt something was off.
my dad was gonna go on that train as it took him to this office but slept through his alarm and missed it i honestly don't know what i would do without him
I'm an American and I was 17 when this happened, but I remember being so broken by the coverage at the time and thinking "oh no, it's happening again".
I'm from the UK, I find it so amazing how such a horrific traumatic event can bring people together. Situations like this and 9/11 and the Paris attack, and every attack that happens around the world, always brings out the strength in us as people, we all pull together, we protect our world... R.I.P to all who lost there lives, and strength and love to the familys that lost a loved one, and the amazing people that survived the attack after losing limbs , that survived. The question is always why... unfortunately not a question we can answer....God bless everyone 🙏 ❤️
Wow. Never seen this before and it’s now 2022…. I remember the news at the time. This was a very beautiful and respectful piece and extremely emotional. RIP to the innocent victims and I’ll forever be moved by the survivors stories.
Thank God for the brave souls who stayed to help and the medical, emergency staff. Feel so bad for the families who lost loved ones. The survivors are very strong and inspirational people.
While 52 may seem like nothing compared to the 9/11 attacks of over 2,000, I had to remind myself that death tolls should never be a contest and any form of lose matters deeply. R.I.P to the 52 people, God Bless, and I hope that all of the injured can heal and recover 100%
@@Gencturk92 9/11 didn't change the world? it didn't do anything for global policy/relations?....it did nothing. Nice try to make it into a competition fam.
My mom was on one of the buses that was transporting people around London during the time of the attacks. Once the attacks were on the news my father called my mom, and told her everything that happened. She then turned around and told everybody on the bus to get off. The bus she was on did not have a bomber on it but I can't believe what my life would be like without my mom. R.I.P. to all those that lost their lives.
I was driving my black cab in Kings Cross just around the time this happened. I will never forget this day...I worked all day trying to get people home, the trains, buses and all transport had stopped and the streets became super packed with people all day long. I was taking cabs full of people all day long on multiple drops all over town, people were willing to share going in the same direction. The radio was on in my cab all day long reporting this whole sorry story hour by hour. Even at 11pm I was still busy. In the end I had to go home and sleep. The same situation happened for most of the week afterwards. People were scared to use the tube when it finally reopened about 3 days later. London was in shock, we all were. We carry on, thats what we do...RIP all them people who died that day...x
This will be etched into my memory forever. The day before we were all celebrating winning the 2012 Olympics. The day after complete horror. I was in London working the day this happened and it’s a day I’ll never forget. The frantic phone calls from my family checking that I was safe, the office lockdown, and finally the mass evacuation out of London. I was one of the lucky ones but I forever hold in my heart my fellow commuters who didn’t return home that day. The one thing this did do is bring London together as one ❤️
@@S16-t6x nobody knows that this was actually a false flag, the explosions on the tube trains came from underneath the tube carriage floors, they were wired earlier
London is the strongest city to go through the toughest of times and still make it out stronger than ever. The people of London and the community life is so strong here I’m so proud to be able to say I’m from London ❤️
I live in the United States and, I can remember, on that date I was driving and listening to the news when this horrible breaking news story came out. I immediately got chills up my spine. My blood ran cold and, of course, I immediately thought of September 11. This cowardice act of terror was Britain’s September 11. May the deceased rest in peace and may our thoughts prayers and condolences go out to the survivors and other loved ones. Love and greetings from the United States.🇺🇸🇬🇧❤️
I live in Luton (about 30 miles from London) and I remember seeing this on the news as my Dad was watching it. I was 10 at the time, so I didn't really fully grasp what was happening. Years later I find it so haunting that this happened and I can't even begin to imagine the horror felt by the people who were there. All my love to the people who were there and RIP to all those innocent lives cruelly taken away.
It’s even the thought that one of them parked their car in Luton and got the train down. I was 16 and had a day off from gcse exam and remember trying to call my dad for ages and he decided to stay at his office instead of going to London that day
I was five turning six when this happened and I had never heard of it. Rest in peace for the people who had lost their lives so terribly and the families who have lost their loved ones.
I remember. I was 9 at the time. I saw a picture on BBC news when we had computer time. It was a woman holding a cloth over her burnt face being held by a paramedic. I convinced myself it was my mum. I went to after school club and instead of my mum picking me up it was a neighbour. She was just stuck in traffic but for a while thought she was dead. The day before it happened I was on that same train with my mum. I had a guitar exam and had never been on that train before. My mum said for a moment she looked at me on the train the day before it happened and thought I looked so small and vulnerable. That she suddenly felt fear.
My parents told me that near the Poplar area, the whole place was completely jammed. No one was allowed into London and of course all the trains were down, including many buses. So near the Blackwall Tunnel, many people were picking complete strangers up and taking them home. Really shows that during an awful tragedy, humanity will come together and will be victorious.
At the time of these attacks, I lived the UK about an hour from London. I remember my this being a day that really shook not only my family but millions of people. I remember the looks on my parents face of true horror, my dad passed away exactly 3 years later to the day....rest in peace to all the beautiful lives lost.
I'm a Muslim and I stand against this horrific crime. My heart and prayers go to the families and peo0le who have lost their beloved ones 🙏 Terrorism has no religion
@@Oldwise101 No it does not Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Hinduism, Buddhism, Bahaism and the list goes on all call for morals, coexistence and respect. It's the vicious radicals that ruin the name of the religion, otherwise all religions call for respect.
7/7 was an inside job: 1) peter power was running an exercise drill on the same day, 3 station and 1 bus that blew up. 2) the trains from luton to london was cancelled so they could not have done this at the time it happened 3) the CCTV weren't working 4) the 4 bombers were shot dead by police in canary wharf 5) bombs were planted underneath the carriages 6) a controlled demolition van near the bus that blew up
I was in England at the time. 14 years old, studying abroad, alone. My family still in Sweden. We were supposed to go to London July 8th. I didn't realize then how scared I got. I'm so lucky I wasn't there. I had friends that were in London that day and luckily they survived. The whole thing was surreal.
Today is September 11, 2018: The 17th Anniversary of our 9-11-2001. We are all united with grief whenever and wherever there is such a tragedy. God bless the world and those who strive for peace and respect the life of humankind!
My uncle used to work for the underground and was meant to be on the piccadily train that morning, I'm forever thankful that he was running late that day. The innocent victims of the monsters that did this are still in my prayers after all these years and it still hurts to see these horrifying images and those who survived still being able to talk about it I commend them for their strength. The emergency services and all the public who helped or tried to help are heroes, London came together that day and proved we would not be broken by terrorists
15 years later the world is still gripped by terror and division, violence is rampant and everyone is isolated because of the pandemic. I hope and pray for a better tomorrow and I feel such sorrow and grief yet inexplicably pride in humanity’s spirit, I believe we can endure everything but we must do it together. Keep fighting comrades and stay strong.
R.I.P to all of the angels who lost their lives in such a horrific attack and may all of the survivors of this horrible incident live happy and joyful lives from this day forward
This was such a powerful documentary. Thanks to those who survived that awful trauma, those who sacrificed their safety and mental wellbeing to help, and those who lost loved ones, for sharing their stories.
The media are vultures, my best friend escaped the MEN arena after the explosion and the sun newspaper reported were asking him how many dead people did he see
I am an American and I'm so sorry for what happened and may the people who passed away R.I.P. Man imagine surviving the bomb on the train and then being put on a bus to the hospital to only die from that bomb on the bus.
Recently found out that my dad was on the train behind one of the ones that got blown up because he got to the bottom of the set of stairs when the train left. He got there late as my brother threw a tantrum that morning and refused to go to nursery, thank god he did.
We were happily walking down the river bank with my primary school pupils when suddenly the streets filled with emergency vehicules. I will never forget that day.
this comment may have been a while ago, but tim is my grandad and he is an absolutely awesome man and i am so thankful for him, these attacks were horrible and he is still feeling the effects x
My family lived in Northampton and my Dad was in London on this day for work, and was travelling on the underground at the time of the explosions. Luckily he wasn't on any affected trains. However he was (I think) mentoring a trainee who sadly was affected and didn't survive.😔
this happened 2 months and 7 days before I was born. I’d heard bits and pieces about it and my mum had told me things about it. it’s shocking knowing that these things happen. living in london, this scares me. it’s insane how just one moment of one day can change the lives of so many. it could’ve been a family member who died. though it scares me, i’m not letting the people who do this win. my thoughts are with those who have died and those who suffered injuries or loss of family and friends 😔
"They killed all my passengers" - that gave me shivering feeling. Like this person had a honor in his job.

The worst and the best of humanity on display, my father was in London that day and I remember the sheer panic when I was unable to contact him until 7pm that night. Thoughts with those lost, pride in those that helped and hopefully at some point we as a people will understand that theres more that brings us together than separates us.
Was he ok?
Thelma broke my heart. As did Carrie's folks. The man who found the dying man? Oh, hell, all of them. I want to hug them all.
And I hate hugs.
I remember making a brew at the time.
Tim is honestly a great man so much respect ❤
I believe we are all heroes waiting for our moment (which may never come). I don't think I could ever do what he did - talk to a person as he dies. I share his beliefs, but not his emotional strength. But maybe I have a different potential. Maybe I'm the guy who bashes out the windows of a burning car to rescue someone? (Not really a common scenario.) I'm not sure we can ever know what our own heroic potential is until we chance upon that moment when it's really needed. In the moment, maybe I would stay with the dying man until he breathed his last? I can't imagine doing that. I'm just some guy, and I'm kinda lazy and easily scared, but in moments like this, nobody seems to think. They just do what they need to do, and Tim needed to comfort people in a horrific situation. I might run and cower somewhere. I can't know.
I did run out of my apartment and chase a man I didn't know out of my building once because he was beating a woman I barely knew in our hallway. I didn't know if he was armed, and I certainly couldn't ever imagine myself doing such a dangerous thing before it happened. I just watched myself running at him toward the door. And I'm just some lazy guy, no one special (believe me) who just did something on impulse. It felt more foolish in hindsight than heroic. It still scares me to think I did that, because it turns out he most likely was armed. She and the police told me a little about the guy over the next few days. He is well known to them. He was a drug dealer, and she was his customer who owed him a whole $70. He had threatened to take her two little boys and kill her while they were waiting for the school bus. Pretty hardcore for $70.
I think we just can't know what we would do in an emergency until the moment finds us.
Yeah totally related to Tim, such a nice character who I would gladly by a drink for.
Time for a crusade ?
52 killed but millions effected
I hope this never happens again RIP to those 52 and God bless the millions
Believe it or not others have plotted and attempted to carry out attacks in England. Only a few years ago a small group of men planned to suicide bomb somewhere but the police took them down
+Reece Bark there was actually another attempt to blow up the tubes 2 weeks after 7/7
But thousands helped.
The reason they were able to kill so many without hesitation is because they did not consider them "their countrymen".
It happened again
"That morning it didn't matter to any single person whether I was Male or female, what color my skin was,whether I had a faith or no faith at all .All that mattered was that I was a human being. That stayed with me for the last 10 years " Words to live by. 42.40-42.54
It’s now been 15 years since this happened but it’s still sad and hard to think about it.

I don’t believe everything happens for a reason, but I told myself years ago, that I would not have got off that train had I been on it. That was my inspiration to chase this career, from a strange daydream to a reality.

A remembrance to all those who have been killed, not just in London but everywhere else from terrorist attacks. I should have been in the City that morning but by luck was elsewhere in a meeting. As soon as we heard meeting was abandoned. My heart also goes out to those who had life changing injuries and relatives who are still grieving at such a senseless act.

Just learnt that one of my mum’s friend’s friends, Laura Webb, was one of the victims. She was one of the nicest people, apparently. I was only two weeks old when she died.
Never forget this 6th July 2005 was my 18th birthday. My mum, dad and me intended had planned on going to London for a few days to see a show. We couldn't get seats all together so instead of sitting apart we decided to go on the 17th when we could all go together.
I will never forget seeing the news on day after realising just how good a decision that was.
Wow crazy how so many things could be different by just one decision happy your family decided that
I was 14, and friends of mine had just started getting cell phones as 'grade 8 graduation gifts'. I live in Canada, and one friend was in London on a trip. I remember friends texting her trying to get in touch. It was really scary. I think being part of that generation though, and having just come through 911, we were getting used to attacks of that nature. We're totally desensitized now.
Very sad but very true, My cousin could have been one of the victims that day as she was supposed to be on that train
I was 7 going on 8 and remember being glued to the TV getting home. the first time I watched the news. Terrifying. still the picture f the bus still haunts me...
Anonymous Caveman it haunts me too my friend
Just like me I was about that age when in my country 9/11 happened. I still can't get the burning towers out of my head. :( People wanting to kill others is just awful.

I SURVIVED both attacks...
Whilst 3,100 didn't.
I would've rather died than have those images locked in my mind.

7/7&9/11
Da Clasher hmmm...
I was 9
As one of the victims was saying "people were walking like nothing happened", I totally agree with that. I work as a security officer in London and people seem not to care when they come something suspect. Once, I was travelling from work home, I was in the upper deck bus and saw an unattended luggage. I asked everyone in the bus and couldn't find the owner so I went and tell the driver. He just ignored me so I got off the bus. No one else seemed to care. Also all this happened right after the terror attacks in 2017.
One time I found a few bags in the shopping center, without an owner anywhere. I started asking people around whose they were and finally a Lithuanian guest worker showed up. It was his stuff. I felt silly.
@@OutragedPufferfish better to feel silly but know everyone is safe i guess
@@OutragedPufferfish why did that guy leave his stuff alone ? Stupid.
@@jan22150 Because he didn't have a place to stay and was tired of carrying it every waking second, probably.

My grandma was there on that day,she luckly was blessed to have been one of the survivors.
Nice documentary. Well done.. some of the words from survivors does send shivers down your spine for what they witnessed.
For someone to stay and comfort another person while not knowing if it was safe to do so is the ultimate example of humanity and decency.
The kindness of ordinary people defeats the evil of these cowardly terrorists.
36:29 to 36:36 The most touching part
14 years ago 52 people woke up went to their jobs. They never came back and still haunts me to think that theres still people dying and getting shot in this world.
It shocks me to think that People make fun of acts of hate when people are dying.
7/7 will never be forgotten and we will remember the 52 that died innocent people don’t deserve to die.
Woo?
and the four young men who were working that day but get left out of the death toll because they are called suicide bombers. they were working in a training exercise and were murdered. watch 7/7 Ripple Effect 3
I’m honestly crying because of how amazing and brave our emergency services are. ❤️
I agree but that is true of emergency services around the world. I think about the firemen who went into the Twin Towers.
'no one should die alone' god damn
This happened when I was 11 years old in the USA. At the time, I couldn't remember much of what was going on. Just some vague news stories on TV. Honestly until seeing this documentary, I was pretty unaware of what happened that day. Fantastic documentary, thanks so much for showing this. My prayers go out to everyone who was and still is affected by this horrible attack.
Michal Rudowski Most of your news channels covered it poorly. Some even distastefully went straight onto the obligatory light-hearted news story about some bunny. The BBC dedicated the whole of 11th September to coverage of 9/11. Your news channels covered it for a minute.
+Wazzok1 Sorry. 😔
Same here. I was a 20 year old American in 2005, and have absolutely no memory of this. During the last five days off, I’ve caught up with docs on the Boston bombing, columbine, Virginia tech, the concord crash. A less than positive week off, to say the least.
@@Wazzok1 ... The US news media is crap. They only cover what is on their agenda. I recall these bombings very well. It is likely many Americans were able to get more indepth news on the web. So sorry for the lost loved ones.
This absolutely shattered my heart into pieces. I don’t know what is worse, losing your life like that, or having to live with the memories. Probably the latter. I can’t imagine trauma like that ever leaving someone. I can’t imagine a minute of their lives going by without them thinking back to that horrific tragedy. And the poor poor families of those who perished 💔
I know someone who was in another carriage who hasn't been on a train since.

My mom was on one of the buses that was transporting people around London during the time of the attacks. Once the attacks were on the news my father called my mom, and told her everything that happened. She then turned around and told everybody on the bus to get off. The bus she was on did not have a bomber on it but I can't believe what my life would be like without my mom. R.I.P. to all those that lost their lives.
I was driving my black cab in Kings Cross just around the time this happened. I will never forget this day...I worked all day trying to get people home, the trains, buses and all transport had stopped and the streets became super packed with people all day long. I was taking cabs full of people all day long on multiple drops all over town, people were willing to share going in the same direction. The radio was on in my cab all day long reporting this whole sorry story hour by hour. Even at 11pm I was still busy. In the end I had to go home and sleep. The same situation happened for most of the week afterwards. People were scared to use the tube when it finally reopened about 3 days later. London was in shock, we all were. We carry on, thats what we do...RIP all them people who died that day...x

This will be etched into my memory forever. The day before we were all celebrating winning the 2012 Olympics. The day after complete horror.

The frantic phone calls from my family checking that I was safe, the office lockdown, and finally the mass evacuation out of London.

Same i just remember seeing the bus on the news and i was worried about my dad getting the train into work a couple of weeks later.
I remember. I was 9 at the time. I saw a picture on BBC news when we had computer time. It was a woman holding a cloth over her burnt face being held by a paramedic. I convinced myself it was my mum. I went to after school club and instead of my mum picking me up it was a neighbour. She was just stuck in traffic but for a while thought she was dead.
The day before it happened I was on that same train with my mum. I had a guitar exam and had never been on that train before. My mum said for a moment she looked at me on the train the day before it happened and thought I looked so small and vulnerable. That she suddenly felt fear.
My parents told me that near the Poplar area, the whole place was completely jammed. No one was allowed into London and of course all the trains were down, including many buses. So near the Blackwall Tunnel, many people were picking complete strangers up and taking them home. Really shows that during an awful tragedy, humanity will come together and will be victorious.

1) peter power was running an exercise drill on the same day, 3 station and 1 bus that blew up.
2) the trains from luton to london was cancelled so they could not have done this at the time it happened
3) the CCTV weren't working
4) the 4 bombers were shot dead by police in canary wharf
5) bombs were planted underneath the carriages
6) a controlled demolition van near the bus that blew up

this happened 2 months and 7 days before I was born. I’d heard bits and pieces about it and my mum had told me things about it. it’s shocking knowing that these things happen. living in london, this scares me. it’s insane how just one moment of one day can change the lives of so many. it could’ve been a family member who died. though it scares me, i’m not letting the people who do this win. my thoughts are with those who have died and those who suffered injuries or loss of family and friends 😔
