Today, on September 11th, we pause to remember the events of 2001 and honor the heroes who emerged from that tragic day. Our questions will focus on acts of bravery, memorial efforts, and the resilience of the human spirit, none of which is trivial. Far from it.
Question 1: What is the name of the boat captain who led the largest maritime evacuation in history, helping to transport nearly 500,000 people from Manhattan on nine eleven?
Question 2: Which tree, found badly damaged at Ground Zero, became a symbol of resilience and was replanted at the nine eleven Memorial?
Question 3: What is the name of the flight attendant on Flight 93 who famously said, "I promise you: We're going to do something," before passengers attempted to retake the plane?
Question 4: What is the name of the annual ceremony where the names of 9/11 victims are read aloud at the World Trade Center site?
Question 5: Which country gifted a 100-foot bronze monument called the "Tear of Grief" to the United States as a memorial to nine eleven victims?

00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:18.480

of bravery, memorial efforts, and the resilience of the human spirit,

7
00:00:29.480 --> 00:00:36.039
none of which is trivial, far from it. Question one,

00:00:36.079 --> 00:00:38.000
What is the name of the boat captain who led

9
00:00:38.039 --> 00:00:42.039
the largest maritime evacuation in history, helping to transport nearly

00:00:42.079 --> 00:00:44.759
five hundred thousand people from Manhattan on nine to eleven?

11
00:00:47.240 --> 00:00:51.240
Question two? Which tree found badly damaged at ground zero

00:00:51.560 --> 00:00:54.079

nine to eleven Memorial? Question three? What is the name

14
00:00:59.600 --> 00:01:01.679

00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:04.799
famously said, I promise you We're going to do something

16
00:01:05.120 --> 00:01:10.519
before passengers attempted to retake the plane. Question four? What

hundred foot bronze monument called the Tier of Grief to

the United States as a memorial to nine eleven victims.

22
00:01:28.400 --> 00:01:34.599
We'll take a moment and then I'll return with the answers.

23
00:01:36.040 --> 00:01:38.719
Let's review the answers and remember these stories of courage

24
00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:42.599
and commemoration. Question one asked what is the name of

25
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:46.159
the boat captain who led the largest maritime evacuation in history,

26
00:01:46.480 --> 00:01:49.680
helping to transport nearly five hundred thousand people from Manhattan

27
00:01:49.760 --> 00:01:54.000
on nine to eleven. Answer Captain Vincent Ardolino. He and

28
00:01:54.079 --> 00:01:57.239
numerous other boat captains responded to the Coastguard's call for help,

29
00:01:57.519 --> 00:01:59.959
leading what became known as the nine to eleven boat Lift.

00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.439
Question two asked which tree found badly damaged at ground

31
00:02:04.560 --> 00:02:07.439
zero became a symbol of resilience and was replanted at

32
00:02:07.480 --> 00:02:11.719
the nine to eleven Memorial. Answer the Survivor Tree. This

33
00:02:11.800 --> 00:02:14.599
calorie pear tree was nursed back to health and replanted

34
00:02:14.599 --> 00:02:18.080
at the memorial in twenty ten, symbolizing New York's resilience.

35
00:02:18.960 --> 00:02:21.639
Question three asked what is the name of the flight

36
00:02:21.680 --> 00:02:25.080
attendant on flight ninety three who famously said, I promise

you We're going to do something before passengers attempted to

38
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:33.080
retake the plane. Answer Sandy Bradshaw. Her bravery, along with

39
00:02:33.120 --> 00:02:36.199
that of her fellow crew members and passengers, likely saved

40
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:40.439
countless lives on the ground. Question four asked what is

41
00:02:40.479 --> 00:02:42.800

00:02:42.840 --> 00:02:45.120
those who died are read aloud at the World Trade

43
00:02:45.120 --> 00:02:49.360
Center site. Answer the Reading of the Name Ceremony. This

44
00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:52.159
solemn event takes place each year on the anniversary of

45
00:02:52.199 --> 00:02:58.560
nine to eleven, ensuring that each victim is remembered. Question

47
00:03:01.479 --> 00:03:04.120
bronze monument called The Tear of Grief to the United

48
00:03:04.120 --> 00:03:08.680
States as a memorial to nine to eleven victims. Answer Russia.

49
00:03:09.199 --> 00:03:13.120
The monument, officially titled to the Struggle against World Terrorism,

50
00:03:13.560 --> 00:03:17.400
was created by sculptor Zurab Sertali and stands in Bayonne,

51
00:03:17.439 --> 00:03:20.840
New Jersey. On this day of remembrance, Let's take a

52
00:03:20.879 --> 00:03:23.439
moment to honor the memory of those we lost and

53
00:03:23.599 --> 00:03:26.400
celebrate the enduring spirit of those who rose to help

54
00:03:26.439 --> 00:03:29.919
in our darkest hour. May we never forget the lessons

55
00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:36.520
of unity and compassion that emerged from that tragic day
