This was the year I saw the World Trade Center. I was 11 and remember it well. It was beautiful and HUGE from what I recall. Coming up on the turnpike the closer we got to the city the larger they became.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 The twin towers were massive and big. My favorite thing about those beautiful towers was that outdoor observation deck on the South Tower. I remember visiting there back in 1995 when I was a small child. It was the best experience that I ever had. There will never be another experience like this in any other skyscraper in the world today. Today we have the Burj Khalifa or the Burj Dubai located in the Middle East which is now the tallest building in the world and it has a nice outdoor observation deck but it is nothing compared to the twin towers.
I can't believe the people who were just working that day on 9/11. Had no idea what was gonna happen that morning, made a crucial decision to jump that high to their deaths, I just can't fathom this. R.I.P to all the jumpers, they're in my heart forever 🙏🏻🕊💗
I wish they were still there because then other people could marvel in the amazing architecture like I did when I went to see them when I was 13 yrs old. 😭😭😭
I watch this video all the time and man there's just something about the shot of the woman going down the escalator that I love so much. I don't know, just feels kinda badass. Such a powerful piece of footage of the Twin Towers back in their glorious days.
@@Gildhattie the fact that we knew about a second attack as early as 1995 makes the late 90s a very ominous time for the towers since we knew it was possible. But the government just expected another bombing…
Very touristic. Buildings massive wide and high. Great view from the top. Too bad no 4K cameras back then. Filming in HD is a reason to time travel back.
It was a magical place back then. The first time I visited NYC was August of 1997, guess we missed each other by a month. It would be awesome to find myself in someone else's footage from back then.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 it's really impressive, knowing you did this without all the fancy computer editing stuff we have today. Also the music choice is just 👌
I was watching the French Connection the other day and in the back ground of a brief scene you can see the construction of one of the towers going up about half way
I almost got sick just thinking about how high that was. I freeze up when I get to high up. I physically can’t walk or talk. Once I had to have help getting down from an open air breeze way about twenty stories up. Uggg
If he toured with Travalco and found it a bad company... then he might have been in the same bus. Check out the other videos of the USA from 1997 and see if he pops up somewhere.

At least we could still experience the view in all its glory.

You got amazing footage that day, almost like a professional would film stock footage.
Thanks for your nice comment.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 yeah it was cute filming
Wow, this video really helps put into perspective just how huge these towers were. Thanks for the upload!
Thanks for your comment. Much appreciated.

Thank you.

Nice video. That background music definitely says '90s.
Thanks for commenting.
It gives me more of an 80s vibe. Like Scarface
Definitely miss seeing the New York skyline without the Twin Towers.
They defined New York City back then.

Perfect song, perfect vídeo 😍😍😍
Thank you very much
A true state of the art skyscraper. Wish if I was there.
Thank you for commenting this video.
How time passes , it feels a totally different Era , after those towers came down .
Thanks for watching the video.
my mom told me she went there for her 8th grade trip and she said it was very beautiful, she told me she went to the very top
Thanks for sharing.
New York had terrible introduction to the 2000’s, the 90’s were much better.
Thank your for commenting on this channel.
You also had the 93' WTC bombing. Unfortunately they came back to finish the job.
@@vlaerenko yup and everyone knew they were coming back... They even said it themselves
@@Gildhattie The CIA knew terrorists were in the US. Unfortunately, the CIA withheld information from the FBI which likely could have prevented 9/11

Beautiful video they were magnificent huge sky scrapers
Thank you very much.
It was sad that 4 years later these towers came down
Indeed a shame.
Love the shot at 0:24 really shows you the magnitude after it zooms out.
Thanks.
It's sad because whenever I see the perspective from the top, all I think about are those poor people who had to jump.
This footage was shot some years before.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 i know but still.
Especially 1:10
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 still the same height
50th like! And is this when you went to the actual complex or someone else’s footage?
Filmed it myself when I was a bit younger. Music by someone else.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 Sweet! What was the experience like?

@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 Nice. Unfortunately 4K/HD wasn’t a thing until like 2007/2008 if I’m not mistaken.
Amazing how much quality has improved over the years.
Looking at a view we'll never see again
And what a shame that is.

Name of song please? it fits perfectly!
Did you make that video?
Yes.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 it's really impressive, knowing you did this without all the fancy computer editing stuff we have today. Also the music choice is just 👌
In those days it was copying from the camcorder to the VCR. For RUclips I just put another song from their copyright-free music library.
Man, to imagine these views were the last thing thousands of people would see
Sad but true.
I was watching the French Connection the other day and in the back ground of a brief scene you can see the construction of one of the towers going up about half way
Part of history.
What people haven't understood..the view unobstructed in EVERY DIRECTION. Complete Freedom. Nothing in the path of your own being.
Thanks for your observation.
Irreplaceable
Thank you for your comment.
May everyone that was affected on 911 rest in piece. New York will never be the same without the twin towers.
Thanks for watching and reacting.

Same here: 'a fear of heights'. But no trouble with that on one of these twin towers.
Good music 😎
Thank you very much.
The voice in the bus is Dutch, my father went to New York in 1997 too, and i don't actually know if he is in the same bus as you because we are Dutch
If he toured with Travalco and found it a bad company... then he might have been in the same bus. Check out the other videos of the USA from 1997 and see if he pops up somewhere.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 Im going to check those out immediatly, it would be very cool to see my father there from 1997

I was born on this exact day
I just wish i could see them in real 🥺🥺
Hopefully the video helped to have an idea of what that would be like.
@@goldenglobetravelvideos803 yes little bit but still everyone would have loved to see them live ,
Thanks for this lovely video
imagine what it was like being in that plane heading for south tower, they must of have seen the north tower burning
Not in 1997

This isn't HD footage though
@@Vaporstruck Indeed it is not. Just because it is encoded in a 4K encoder many years later, does not make the original footage HD or even UHD.
Nothing happened at world trade center at september 11 2001 :)
And the reason of your comment?
still mad they weren’t rebuilt

What the world lost because of Saudi Arabia.

You have some imagination.
What if there were tourists were stuck in there during 911
There probably were....
rebuild the twin towers
Now that's an idea...
Pause at 1:10 and JUST IMAGINE
What is it you imagine?
