minutes, between 8:46am and 9:03am, an estimated 1,400 people successfully evacuated from above floor 77 of the South Tower, while roughly 600 people did not. At the moment of the impact of Flight 175, up to 200 people were in the Skylobby on the 78th floor waiting for elevators. All but 12 of these people then died, as the lobby was struck by Flight 175's wingtip. One of these 12 survivors died a few days later of her wounds.

Some did not immediately do so, with at least one guest
