Brian Clark is one of the few people who escaped from above the impact zone of the South Tower on 9/11. In this powerful episode of the DEAD Talks Podcast, host David Ferrugio sits down with Brian to hear his extraordinary firsthand account of survival from the World Trade Center.
From being on the 84th floor on September 11th when Flight 175 struck just below him, to hearing mysterious voices that guided him to a stairwell, Brian recounts the decisions and moments that saved his life—and the man he helped rescue along the way.
In this episode, Brian shares:
- What it was like inside the South Tower during the attacks
- The split-second decisions that determined survival
- The man he helped save and the bond that followed
- The inexplicable moments that still defy explanation
- Lessons of survival, humanity, and resilience from 9/11
This conversation is raw, emotional, and unforgettable—a story of survival, fate, and humanity on one of history’s darkest days.

DEAD Talks with David Ferrugio engages death a little bit differently. Each new guest shares their experience with grieving or perspective on death in a way that shatters the “don’t talk about death” taboo. Grief doesn't end; it evolves. Having lost his father on September 11th when he was 12, he learned the importance of discussion and sharing other people's stories. DEAD Talks Podcast hopes to make it a little easier to talk about grief, loss, death, mourning, trauma, or whatever it may be. You may cry, but you also may laugh.
