An Intimate and Unforgettable Account of Survival
and 23 Years of PTSD that followed.
September 11, 2024

New York, NY, September 11, 2024 — Able Channel, the Emmy Award-winning healthcare streaming service, is proud to announce its latest film project, “Forgetting 9/11 The John Crittenden Story.” This powerful documentary delves into the harrowing experiences of John Crittenden, a survivor of the World Trade Center terrorist attack on September 11, 2001, and the relentless journey of 23 years coping with the aftermath of that fateful day.
“Forgetting 9/11” offers a chilling and deeply personal narrative of the 9/11 attacks, retold through the eyes of someone who lived through the chaos and destruction. As the world watched in horror, John Crittenden faced unimaginable terror within the South Tower. His story is not only a recounting of that catastrophic event but also an exploration of the long-term impact on his mental health, shedding light on the persistent effects of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).
The film provides a unique firsthand perspective on 9/11, focusing on the ongoing struggles and resilience required to live with the memories of that day. Through John Crittenden’s story, the documentary seeks to raise awareness about PTSD and its enduring effects on survivors of traumatic events.
Able Channel is committed to presenting compelling stories that resonate with audiences, particularly those that highlight the intersection of health, well-being, and human resilience. “Forgetting 9/11 The John Crittenden Story” aligns with this mission, offering viewers an opportunity to engage with a story that is both profoundly moving and critically important.
“John’s story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity,” said Brian McCourt CEO and the film’s Director at Able Channel. “This program is an account of how a single day or traumatic event can influence a lifetime of pain and difficulty, for not only the survivor but their loved ones as well. The program is tribute to all who have lived through trauma and continue to fight for peace of mind and a better tomorrow themselves and others.”
“Forgetting 9/11 The John Crittenden Story” will be available on Able Channel in 2025. For more information, please visit https://theablechannel.com
