Three stories. Three survivors. One unforgettable tragedy. Survivor #1, Mark Oliver, was a lawyer at the time of the attacks, working on the 57th floor of the North Tower. Now age 43, he lives in the state of Connecticut, but is originally from Hertfordshire, England, and still has a strong English accent. He only moved to the United States weeks before the attacks and has suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder since 11 September 2001.
Survivor #2, award-winning film-maker Paul Berriff and his wife Mickey, were living in an apartment next to the World Trade Center at the time of the attack. Paul filmed the whole event, including the actual towers collapsing, on top of him as he stood at the base.
Survivor #3, Glasgow-based artist Vanessa Lawrence, now age 36, was a student in a studio on the 91st floor of the North Tower of the WTC on 9/11. She escaped down all 91 floors and now lives with her (soon to be born) baby and furniture-maker partner Alan near Glasgow.
