An American who escaped from terrorists at the Bataclan theatre the night of the Paris attacks had also survived the 9/11 attacks in New York!
The man, known only as 'Mathew', was in Paris to watch the Eagles Of Death Metal gig when ISIS jihadists stormed the building. Mathew was shot in the leg, and only escaped by playing dead. When the shooters left the area to reload their weapons, he crawled inch by inch to the exit.
Luckily for Mathew, a local journalist named Mr Psenny was outside the door photographing fleeing survivors. He picked up Mathew and gradded him out of the building, but was himself shot in the leg.
The two men fled back to Mr Psenny's nearby apartment to contact the emergency services.

Miraculously, Mathew has now told that he also survived the 9/11 attacks on the world trade center. He was heading to a meeting in manhatten on September 11th, and was walking under the World trade center complex when the North Tower was hit by a Boeing 767.
"I sprinted across half of Manhattan," he said. "But what I went through in the Bataclan was 1,000 times worse," he said.
Either he's the luckiest man alive, or he's the target.
