Life at the Top

Time passed by as they waited.

Everyone thought today was just another ordinary day. None would have thought that such an ordinary day would be written into history.

Tommy was a backpack traveler. In the year 2001, all he had was his traveling backpack on him. He got his clothes and camping tent, some electronic devices in his backpack, and a portable DV camera. That was all the equipment he got.

Tommy made a living by recording down the beautiful sceneries and his travel stories in different countries all around the world with his DV camera and uploaded it to the internet.

Today, Tommy came to the World Trade Center. It was New York City’s landmark in the US, not only it was the pride of the nation, it was one of the icons that represented the World’s Economy Center.

Tommy stood on top of another skyscraper which was opposite to it, facing the camera, the Twin Towers of World Trade Center stood tall behind him.
