Olsen has one brother , Drew , a former safety at Gettysburg College . His father , Andy Olsen , was a New York City firefighter . Just three days before the 9/11 attacks , his father was promoted to Lieutenant . Therefore , he was in officer training on September 11 , and not with Ladder 80 , his firehouse at the time . When his father finally arrived at the World Trade Center site , both towers had already collapsed . A few days later , when he was digging through the rubble , his father found a truck from his firehouse buried and destroyed . None of the firefighters in that particular unit survived
