1366 people were at or above the floors of impact in the North Tower (1 WTC): according to the Commission Report hundreds were killed instantly by the impact [2], the rest were trapped and died later.

As many as 600 people were killed instantly or trapped at and above the floors of impact in the South Tower (2 WTC). Only about 18 managed to escape in time from above the impact zone and out of the South Tower before it collapsed. The captain of Flight 11, John Ogonowski, is said to have been killed by hijackers before the impact. There were a number of reports, some contradictory, from callers aboard the hijacked aircraft that suggest the hijackers killed multiple persons aboard the planes before impact.[citation needed]

As the suburbs around New York City learned of the destruction so close to home, many schools closed for the day, evacuated, or were locked down. Other school districts shielded students from watching television because many of their parents held jobs in the World Trade Center towers. In New Jersey and Connecticut, private schools were evacuated. Scarsdale, New York schools closed for the day. In Greenwich, Connecticut, about 20 miles north of the city, hundreds of school children had direct ties to victims of the attacks. Greenwich and nearby New Canaan, two of the wealthiest towns in the area, had more residents killed than any other town.

According to the Associated Press, the city identified over 1,600 bodies but was unable to identify the rest (about 1,100 people). They report that the city has "about 10,000 unidentified bone and tissue fragments that cannot be matched to the list of the dead."[16] Bone fragments were still being found as late as April 2006 as workers prepared the damaged Deutsche Bank Building for demolition.

Cantor Fitzgerald L.P., an investment bank on the 101st-105th floors of One World Trade Center, lost 685 employees, considerably more than any other employer.

Approximately 400 rescue workers, most of them of the NYFD, died when the towers collapsed.

The fatalities included 8 children, 5 of ages 3, 8, 11, 11, 11 on American 77, 3 of ages 2, 3, and 4 on United 175 [3].

Almost all the fatalities were non-military personnel, except some of the 125 victims in the Pentagon.

No I sure don't , but I do know a little something about that tragic day that many are not aware of.

Would you take a look at about 8 - 10 minutes of this interview with Professor Steven Jones ? It's a 45 minute video and well worth looking at, to its end. At the very least Pass it on to those you care about.

Fascinating question. I did an attempted Web search--and I'm good at that--and came up empty handed......

except.......

that one blog blames the 2500+ war dead this nation has suffered on 911--and that is correct, given that there is no connection between Iraq and 911 in any way, shape, form or fashion.

I don't think a tally has been run breaking things out that way. There certainly doesn't appear to be one on the Web.

maybe the ones who were dying with Ebola, AIDS or Pneumonia. Seriously, no one could've been killed, hurt maybe but not killed.
