Given the information they had at the time, it made sense. They thought it was a tragic accident. Each tower had 25,000 people inside at the time. Evacuation of 50,000 people into the streets when emergency services were trying to get in was a logistical nightmare. Their efforts were focused on what they thought was the most immediate danger. It’s unimaginably sad, but understandable.

I think it is because they believed tower 2 was safe and they didn’t know it was a plane that hit tower 1, and evacuating tower 2 might’ve slowed down the evacuation of tower 1. I didn’t put much thought into that because they literally had seconds to decide what to do and they didn’t have time to put lots of thought into evacuation. I’m not saying that they were right in saying to not leave tower 2 but I’m saying at the time it seemed like the best option

I think this interviewer did an amazing job of letting both Kimmy and Zoe speak. The questions were appropriate and kind, and he didn't interrupt them, he actually let them talk (which is not always the case with interviews).THANK YOU for this interview. RIP Frank Doyle, Kimmy and Zoe, I am thinking about you! Thank you, CBC/Radio-Canada for sharing this with us!

The memories of Frank showed in this video were so elegant, and it shows how much of a role model he was to his young children at the time. It's hard to lose your father at such a young age. His courageous actions will live on. If he were alive today, he must be so proud of Zoey for getting her undergrad. As a fellow Canadian, I pray for this family. RIP Frank.

My ❤ goes out to this family. Her re-telling of Frank's last phonecalls to her gave me chills. Their daughter (Zoe) is so poised and articulate - it was touching to hear from her as well.

It's amazing how so many of the families dont sound angry that their loved ones were so selfishly and visciously taken from them. They talk about them and that day with such eloquence and wisdom. There was one man that talked about his wife whose body was found in front of the building a ways away from the towers. He knew she had clearly jumped from, I think, the 87th floor? Maybe higher. She had called and told him how hot it was and how hard to breathe it was. And he said "to be out of the heat and the smoke. It must've felt like flying." I thought that was such a wise and deeply profound way to think of it.

Their story has shaken me to the core. I'm so glad that they have photos and videos to remember him with. May God bless you all Doyle family.❤

In some ways, it seems more like 15 years ago to me instead of 22. In others, it was long ago. I was looking at an old missing persons case recently from 1992 which is still unsolved, or so they say. Now that is another world ago to me.

I was 10 when this happened and lost my father almost a year to the day before this tragedy. It was difficult to understand what had happened back then but every year it sinks in deeper and deeper. I still cry when I see the towers fall and every story from survivors or families of victims makes my heart cry out for them.

I can’t imagine how heartbreaking it must be to know your loved one is trapped in a top floor of abusing and then seeing the building collapse on live TV. The strength this woman must have needed to carry on with her own life and raise her family is something I don’t know I’d have. 💔

Kimmy you and your kids are amazing. So brave. You were so lucky to hear Frank's voice for the last time. My father died 10 years ago in a shipwreck here in Italy and I wasn't that lucky. It happened on December 15. I hadn't heard from him for a week before the tragedy happened. I lived in Milan then and my family lived here in Pompeii. But we were blessed from his body's recovery the day after. He was 77 years old and I can't stop believing that whether it happened on summer, he would have saved himself. He was an amazing swimmer. I know what you feel, how you feel. I'm 50 now and I miss him every single day.
