  • 23 September 2001; Bellevue Hospital, New York City, New York, USA.<br />
Genelle Guzman-McMillan - nee Genelle Guzman. Aftermath of 9/11 Terrorist attack on World Trade Centre.<br />
Last known survivor.<br />
Gentle Guzman has a bandage applied to her ankle by her boyfriend Roger McMillan at Bellevue hospital as she recovers from being trapped in the rubble of the World Trade Centers debris. Gentle was trapped for 27 hours, pinned by heavy debris after the buildings collapsed around her killing her work colleagues. By some miracle Genelle attributes to God she was spared. Gentle was found by a German Shepherd rescue dog named Trakr and his handler James Symington.<br />
Genelle was told she would never recover from the crushing injuries to her legs, however she has since overcome the odds and went on to marry her sweetheart Roger McMillan who cared for in hospital throughout her ordeal.  <br />

  • 05 July 2022.  Paris, France.<br />
At home with Helen Wilson (56 yrs), a survivor of the Bataclan nightclub massacre of November 13th 2015 which claimed the lives of 90 people inside the club, 130 in total with co-ordinated attacks across Paris. Helen holds a photograph of her former boyfriend Nick Alexander, the only British citizen killed in the attacks. <br />
<br />
Helen, an American living in Paris went to see the music of American rock band Eagles of Death Metal at the Bataclan nightclub with her former British boyfriend Nick Alexander. Soon after the shooting started, a Frenchman near where they were lying on the floor taking cover started shouting obscenities at the attackers. Helen describes how 2 terrorists came over to the area near where Helen and Nick were lying on the floor. One of the attackers raised his kalashnikov and opened fire. Nick was shot in the stomach and Helen was shot twice, once in each thigh. Helen raised her hands and begged the shooter to stop, which she says he did, then he calmly walked away. Nick's injuries however proved to be fatal and he died in her arms before police could rescue them. Nick Alexander was the only British victim of the horrific attacks. Helen miraculously survived despite losing 4 pints of blood and was saved by paramedics after police stormed the building. Helen's story is one of unimaginable tragedy, of strength, courage under fire, resilience and survival. Helen still receives counselling and physical therapy to help cope with the continuing aftermath of the attack. She is an inspiration to many she talks to as she speaks to other trauma survivors and disaffected youth.   <br />

Helen, an American living in Paris went to see the music of American rock band Eagles of Death Metal at the Bataclan nightclub with her former British boyfriend Nick Alexander. Soon after the shooting started, a Frenchman near where they were lying on the floor taking cover started shouting obscenities at the attackers. Helen describes how 2 terrorists came over to the area near where Helen and Nick were lying on the floor. One of the attackers raised his kalashnikov and opened fire. Nick was shot in the stomach and Helen was shot twice, once in each thigh. Helen raised her hands and begged the shooter to stop, which she says he did, then he calmly walked away. Nick's injuries however proved to be fatal and he died in her arms before police could rescue them. Nick Alexander was the only British victim of the horrific attacks. Helen miraculously survived despite losing 4 pints of blood and was saved by paramedics after police stormed the building. Helen's story is one of unimaginable tragedy, of strength, courage under fire, resilience and survival. Helen still receives counselling and physical therapy to help cope with the continuing aftermath of the attack. She is an inspiration to many she talks to as she speaks to other trauma survivors and disaffected youth.   <br />

Lower 9th ward. Australian tourists and hurricane Katrina survivors Bud Hopes (33yrs - Brisbane) and Michelle Van Grinsven (22yrs- Sydney) return to the city almost a year after they were caught up in hurricane Katrina. Bud and Michelle were amongst the tourists evacuated to the Superdome during the storm. Bud emerged as the 'leader' of the tourist group of some 70 foreign tourists caught up in the hell that was the Superdome in the days after the storm last year. The two are shocked to discover the lack of action amidst the debris of the still ruined Lower 9th Ward.<br />
