1993 Wtc facts

While investigating facts about 1993 Wtc, I found out little known, but curios details like:

A Chiefs superfan known as "Helmet Man" was banned from attending games because he was part of the Witness Protection Program for being a witness in the 1993 WTC bombing.

Ted Kaczynski (the unabomber), Terry Nichols (accomplice in the Oklahoma City Bombing), and Ramzi Yousef (mastermind of the 1993 WTC bombing) all share the same cell block in a Colorado supermax prison.

In my opinion, it is useful to put together a list of the most interesting details from trusted sources that I've come across. Here are 11 of the best facts about 1993 Wtc I managed to collect.

1. Brian Clark, a 9/11 survivor who was one of only four to make it out from a floor above the planes’ impact. In 1993, after the first unsuccessful WTC bombing, he had volunteered to be Fire Warden for his floor; number 84 of the South Tower.

2. The Russian government gave the United States a 10-story tall sculpture as a gift to memorialize 9/11 and the 1993 WTC bombing.

3. Ted Kaczynski (the Unabomber), Ramzi Yousef ( the 1993 WTC bomber), and Timothy Mcveigh (the 1995 Oklahoma City bomber) reportedly became friends in prison. The trio discussed religion and politics and the friendship lasted until Mcveigh's execution in 2001.

4. Early on in his prison sentence, the Unabomber befriended the 1993 WTC bomber and the Oklahoma City bomber. The trio discussed religion and politics.

5. In a February 1999 episode of The FBI Files, covering the 1993 WTC bombing, the narrator ominously states, "[the WTC was] built to withstand something as unimaginable as the impact of a fully fuelled jet."

6. Ramzi Yousef (WTC Bombing, 1993) tried repeatedly to convert Timothy McVeigh (Oklahoma City Bombing, 1995) to Islam when they were incarcerated together.

7. A member of the FBI informed the agency about the 1993 bombing of the WTC, yet the FBI did not decide to have him replace the bomb with a fake one or stop the bombing.

8. Ali Muhammed, an Egyptian double agent who infiltrated the CIA and US Army Special Forces in the 1980s. He also fought for the Mujahedeen in Afghanistan, provided Al Qaeda with their first training materials, and likely helped planned the first WTC bombing in 1993.
