The probability of that has got to be extraordinary.

Unfortunately, this is not uncommon. The debris really messed up a lot of people.

I find it bizarre that they died on the same day. That's crazy.

Wonder what type they had. The article wasnt specific for them

No way to know that the cancer was caused by 9/11.

Yes there is. Scientific research is a cool thing.

Scruffy would like to know what kind of cancer they died of.

I had no idea that was a real thing.
How does one detract a cancer from the 9/11 debris? Scientists help me out...

All that shite they were breathing in, bro

Anyone involved at the scene who gets cancer will have it attributed to the debris. Maybe it's true, but I don't know if the sample size is going to be big enough to say it was without a doubt cause by 911. That being said,

Well, I know that, bro.
I was looking for a more scientific answer like from real scientists.

They would have to rule out any variables such as whether they smoke etc.

Most likely mesothelioma, because the towers were built in the early 70's, when asbestos was widely used. Asbestos is (was) a great building material, very strong, fire proof, and excellent insulator, they just didn't know it would kill you.

Either that or silicosis I would assume.
