Survivor’s Lesson from 911 | Mesa News

Twenty-five years after 9/11, Bob Jenkins, a Marine veteran who survived the North Tower collapse, shares his harrowing escape from the 78th floor—just three floors above the impact zone—and how he turned panic into purpose. Now 71 and battling cancer linked to toxic exposure, he carries survivor’s guilt and a fierce mission: keep the memory of that day alive. He recounts the man in the wheelchair he couldn’t help, the small choices that saved lives, and the power of calm under crisis. Today, he drives a Mustang adorned with Twin Towers imagery and the words “We will never forget,” reminding us that facing death head-on is the only way to survive—and that panic is what truly kills.
