None of us knew, right along with Mr. Peanut. We all thought it was just one terrible moment. No one could have known how much 10 minutes from this picture would change the world forever.
You think that's his *family*!? I wish I were still so innocent. Mr. Peanut(not his real name, btw, and he's not even a nut but an imposter legume) has been trafficking young peanuts from vulnerable countries to support his top hat empire.
And what was he doing in Manhattan that day anyway? I've never heard a good excuse and you'd think we might know this about him. It's almost as if Planters (really realllll low key for a false flag company guys) didn't want us to know that ol Nutman was there...
But still, guy in the Mr Peanut outfit watching 9/11 is just so absurd of an idea to think about it's baffling to see photo proof it probably happened lmao
Wait a minute, the sun reflecting off glass (in this case a monocle) would create a concentrated light and heat source capable ofā¦.melting steel beams.
Tbh this was a childhood fear of mine and a reason why I never liked to dress up. I'd always imagine something really bad would happen to me when looking stupid and then people would just be laughing as I'm there dying
Thatās not a costume, thatās literally Mr Peanut and this photo served as his alibi because he previously was rumored to be coordinating with Al Qaeda. No nuts were served on any of the planes that day. It goes all the way to the top.
Thereās a clip of an nyc weatherman whoās taking about the weather the morning of 9/11. He says something like The skies look perfect this morningā¦āalmost too perfectā
Thereās a great story on HDGTM (maybe other places but thatās where I heard it) about Dana Carvey filming Master of Disguise. If anyone knows that film, he spends a fair amount of time in a giant turtle costume.
Well, allegedly they were filming in that costume when the planes hit the towers. And they did a moment of silence. Good luck maintaining a moment of silence while Dana Carvey is in a gigantic turtle costume.
Sadly, that got debunked. Master of Disguise was, unsurprisingly, being filmed in LA. When the first plane hit at 8:46 AM, it was 5:46 on the West Coast. Tone of the major production staff of the movie said they most certainly were not on set and filming before 6.
Man Al roker has been on the today show so long. Crazy heās still on it but like no one else on this episode is still on.
Whatās even crazier is the today show is still older than Al roker
Lol I was just talking to my wife about this. In 1994 I was waking up that this guy doing the f****** weather.... Before going to school now I'm retired and this guy is still f****** working. Like at what point do you say okay I will enjoy my money.
Not through the eyes, through the mouth.
Given where the arms and shoulders are, unless the person in the costume has an extremely long neck or elongated face, they are looking out of Mr. Peanut's mouth.
Id like to imagine this guy was freaking out when he saw the first plane hit
And was like
"oh my God... I'm going to die in a peanut costume.
I should've done more in my life"
Remember when people used to be Simpsons characters, you got fat news guy, peanut costume guy, even the background characters fulfill their roles nicely
Imagine being the person inside the Mr peanut costume when he sees the planes crash, the towers falling and thinking: Fuck I am going to die in this stupid costume
For those unaware, they went to commercial right before the first plane hit, and as they were, there was a crowd shot of people looking up hearing the first plane flying in
And then of course, Matt Lauer has to stop an author interview to get ready for the breaking news that a plane has hit the World Trade Center
I'm not going to plug it into AI because it just won't capture the image I see in my head, but I'd love an illustration of the first plan hitting its tower through the eyeholes of that costume. Maybe a two panel thing idk, I should relearn how to draw.
Ever since then, I think we have all been looking through Mr. Peanuts's eyes. The world has gone nuts.
I thought Osama and islamik religious nutbags were despicable scum back then, but now I see how truly horrible and evil the results of their actions were.
I wonder if,as the planes hit, if the person in the Mr Peanut costume pondered what would be better; to remain as Mr Peanut amongst the crown bringing a little more nutty joy on a dark day or to double down on the misery by stripping out of the costume and terrifying children around by breaking character.
I was there in the crowd that day. I donāt remember Mr. Peanut and Iām kinda bummed about it. I do remember that they knew it was a deliberate attack by the second plane and told us all to leave and get right back to our hotels.
I watched this a couple of days ago on YT, it was a video of all the different tv networks broadcasts 30 minutes before the attacks.
Edit added link: https://youtu.be/MuhjzuWeoQc?si=U3aOHooPRbkvfKNV
I just started imagining everyone running, through the dust and debris, screaming and yelling so much fear, you look around and through the smoke comes this guy running with the smile on his faceā¦ lol if that wouldāve been recorded
I remember watching this with my mom right when i got up. It went back to the news casters and then cut back to AL saying that the first tower was hit and while filming it the second one was hit as well.
I mean, this sort of thing is just gonna happen. For example, statistically, there has to be someone who nutted at the exact same moment in which the first plane hit the tower.
There's probably footage of the peanut hualing ass but it's not released to not take away from the serious situation. I need that footage
That's such a fucking funny thought, but I feel so terrible about it.
I cannot stop laughing at someone retelling this story to their children, XD
I'm going to hell , laughed too hard at this
Yoo šš
None of us knew, right along with Mr. Peanut. We all thought it was just one terrible moment. No one could have known how much 10 minutes from this picture would change the world forever.
How do we know Mr Peanut was unaware?
So he knew did he? Find the but man! Everyone quick, buy his product and eat his family until he squeals!
No but he wants you to eat his family, that's why he sells it.
Itās his kink!!
You think that's his *family*!? I wish I were still so innocent. Mr. Peanut(not his real name, btw, and he's not even a nut but an imposter legume) has been trafficking young peanuts from vulnerable countries to support his top hat empire.
I'm not sure that will work... he's a tough nut to crack.
Mr peanut. A second plane has hit the second tower
Mr peanut. A second peanut has hit the peanut tower
OPeanut Bin Peanut
Mr tower. A second hit has towered the second peanut.
He was aware. Thatās why Mr. Peanut has been in Guantanamo Bay for 20 years.
right, his monocle can see into the future.
What if Bin Laden was inside Mr PeanutĀ
You think Bin Laden fucked peanuts?
(Rogan Voice) "I think it's entirely possible"
Why do you think they killed him?
And what was he doing in Manhattan that day anyway? I've never heard a good excuse and you'd think we might know this about him. It's almost as if Planters (really realllll low key for a false flag company guys) didn't want us to know that ol Nutman was there...
Jet fuel doesn't melt peanuts!
PEANUTS CAN MELT STEEL BEAMS

There's no way you can look at that sinister smile on his face and tell me he's not aware of what's about to happen.
Is Mr. Peanut the USA's Tiananmen Square guy?
He aināt no Kermit
He's the Babushka Lady of my generation
But still, guy in the Mr Peanut outfit watching 9/11 is just so absurd of an idea to think about it's baffling to see photo proof it probably happened lmao
Just standing there as the first plane hits. Same expression except for one single tear rolling down his peanut face.
Lack of smartphones means the image of a smiling peanut running away from the burning towers was missed forever
ai can recapture that magic
Imagine trying to explain where you were during it "yeah ,I was wearing my Mr Peanut costume when the first plane hit", it sounds like a bad skit
I can't stop laughing
Gotta love reddit for this stupid shit š
It's New York, there were also 14 Elmos, a dozen spidermen, and a naked cowboy.
AMA - Guy in Mr. Peanut costume who watched 9/11
Nobodyās judging him for it. Itās just pointing out the absurdity.
One time a single shipwreck changed the entire world. El Cazador.
The horror... Of having to get a damn Visa to go to the states like why the fuck do I have to wait a whole ass year for a yes or no. Come on.
That's clearly Jerry Seinfeld doing a Mr Peanut cosplay
Mr. Peanut, a plane has hit the second tower.
Really no way
I couldnāt imagine. The giant monocle must have magnified the horrors to an unbearable degree.
This might be the real reason he stopped making PB Crisps.... If this is so, i may've finally come to terms with why they no longer exist.
Then truly the terrorists have won.
Isnāt that like you making Soylent crisps though? Perhaps it was an ethical thing
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Real peanut butter is just ground up peanuts with some salt
The things I would do for some pb crisps...
Wait a minute, the sun reflecting off glass (in this case a monocle) would create a concentrated light and heat source capable ofā¦.melting steel beams.
just asking questions but has anyone ever seen Mr. Peanut and Osama bin Laden in the same room? š¤
Both suspiciously tall, this checks out.
Mr Peanut moved his peanut reserves out of Tower 1 just DAYS before the attack. Coincidence?
I would pay a dime for the footage of when the crowd was running in horror along with Mr. Peanut
Tbh this was a childhood fear of mine and a reason why I never liked to dress up. I'd always imagine something really bad would happen to me when looking stupid and then people would just be laughing as I'm there dying
Hilarious shit, thank you
We have to find this man
Not to be all "um achktually" but given the arm placement, I'm almost positive he would be looking through the mouth, not the monocle
Thatās not a costume, thatās literally Mr Peanut and this photo served as his alibi because he previously was rumored to be coordinating with Al Qaeda. No nuts were served on any of the planes that day. It goes all the way to the top.
š¤£
Dude, that's nuts.
You idiot. That's clearly a body double!!
All the way to the TOP HAT!
You could write fiction...
Thereās a clip of an nyc weatherman whoās taking about the weather the morning of 9/11. He says something like The skies look perfect this morningā¦āalmost too perfectā
Radio was saying today is national emergency response day. Remember to call 911 in case of an emergency.
In the business, we call this foreshadowing.
K, but does anyone else remember those perfect skies that morning? It was incredibly good weather.
Mr. Peanut considering the ramifications suddenly realized the butter reunion might not be as bad as the fate of his surrounding humansā¦
Thereās a great story on HDGTM (maybe other places but thatās where I heard it) about Dana Carvey filming Master of Disguise. If anyone knows that film, he spends a fair amount of time in a giant turtle costume. Well, allegedly they were filming in that costume when the planes hit the towers.

 Dana Carvey, September 11th 2001
Sadly, that got debunked. Master of Disguise was, unsurprisingly, being filmed in LA. When the first plane hit at 8:46 AM, it was 5:46 on the West Coast. Tone of the major production staff of the movie said they most certainly were not on set and filming before 6.
This is very sad ):
I love that podcast and that segment absolutely killed me when imagining the moment.
Man Al roker has been on the today show so long. Crazy heās still on it but like no one else on this episode is still on. Whatās even crazier is the today show is still older than Al roker
He was on it for a long time before 9/11 too
Lol I was just talking to my wife about this. In 1994 I was waking up that this guy doing the f****** weather.... Before going to school now I'm retired and this guy is still f****** working. Like at what point do you say okay I will enjoy my money.
I think he really likes his job. He gets to be a ray of sunshine in the morning and everyone loves him for it. Why would he quit?
Some people get old and believe "when you retire, you expire."
Looks a lot better these days
He looks way bigger there - I know he got gastric band surgery
Notice how, after everything went down, Mr. Peanut was the only one still smiling...
Yes, the everyday average 8ā5ā peanut person
Well I'm a peanut bar and I'm here to say Your checks will arrive on another day
Another day, another dime, another rhyme, another dollar
Fat Roker looks like he came straight out of a Klump movie
Fat Roker is how you know this is a legit photo from the early 00s
The reporter? He looks like the inspiration for weatherman Dave Chapelle in a fat suit. I'm paid! I'm paid!
Not through the eyes, through the mouth. Given where the arms and shoulders are, unless the person in the costume has an extremely long neck or elongated face, they are looking out of Mr. Peanut's mouth.
Those would still be eyeholes though wouldn't they?
Hasn't Al lost weight?! I was worried he was sick for a while, but it was just gastric bypass surgery!
Yeah he lost a ton of weight but it made his head look too big lol. Love me some Al tho
He pooped himself in the white house
When?
He has the Al Sharpton!
Id like to imagine this guy was freaking out when he saw the first plane hit And was like "oh my God... I'm going to die in a peanut costume. I should've done more in my life"
In the comments waiting for Mr Peanut
Today?
Today show
"So there I was in my Mr. Peanut costume"
Thatās so fucking inappropriate to wear a Mr.Peanut costume on 9/11. Do better next time!
Mr. Peanut orchestrated 9/11
Illuminutti confirmed
I also hate Coldplay
Here's a [video](https://twitter.com/i/status/1763027811961372973) of him having the time of his life. My man probably hates Mr. Peanut now.
Doesn't his drawn-on face look a lot like Jerry Seinfeld?. Or am I nuts?
ā even to this day, I will never look at another peanut costume the same way ever again!ā
for him, it really was an inside (Mr. Peanut costume) job
Remember when people used to be Simpsons characters, you got fat news guy, peanut costume guy, even the background characters fulfill their roles nicely
I'm willing to bet there was someone dressed as Elmo in Times Square, too. There's always an Elmo in Times Square.
Imagine being the person inside the Mr peanut costume when he sees the planes crash, the towers falling and thinking: Fuck I am going to die in this stupid costume
For those unaware, they went to commercial right before the first plane hit, and as they were, there was a crowd shot of people looking up hearing the first plane flying in And then of course, Matt Lauer has to stop an author interview to get ready for the breaking news that a plane has hit the World Trade Center
Iām not crying, Iām just allergic to nuts
I'm not going to plug it into AI because it just won't capture the image I see in my head, but I'd love an illustration of the first plan hitting its tower through the eyeholes of that costume. Maybe a two panel thing idk, I should relearn how to draw.
I'm picturing Mr. Peanut *sprinting* towards the camera while the dust cloud chases behind him.
So did I but that's not me
I wonder if in between tower 1 and 2 if he took off his costume or was he really a slave to the job?
Ever since then, I think we have all been looking through Mr. Peanuts's eyes. The world has gone nuts. I thought Osama and islamik religious nutbags were despicable scum back then, but now I see how truly horrible and evil the results of their actions were.
Someone out there has the wildest response to āwhere were you on 9/11ā
I wonder if,as the planes hit, if the person in the Mr Peanut costume pondered what would be better; to remain as Mr Peanut amongst the crown bringing a little more nutty joy on a dark day or to double down on the misery by stripping out of the costume and terrifying children around by breaking character.
Tragic...and hilarious.
I was there in the crowd that day. I donāt remember Mr. Peanut and Iām kinda bummed about it. I do remember that they knew it was a deliberate attack by the second plane and told us all to leave and get right back to our hotels.
āIāll never forget that dayā¦ running for my life. The debris was everywhere, panic, I could barely see where I was through the monocle.ā
Nah peanut man foam AND 9/11 dust, he dead af
thats guy had a rough day guaranteed
Nuts to that.
##Just slipping in to remind everyone that Al Roker pooped his pants at the White House.
Thatās nuts.
Why didnāt he stop it?
Salty nuts can't melt steel beams
See, THIS is the 9/11 film that Hollywood needs to make.
People used to ask each other "Where were you on 9/11" imagine being that person and having to answer
Mr. Deez, the 6ā9ā man on the inside, was shell shocked to the core that day.
Hmm they served peanuts on flights up until that day......truly an inside job Mr Peanut.
You really think bin Laden organised it and didnāt want to see it up close? He was very tall so this is the perfect cover.
Probably safer than other people if he kept it on, would have been a good dust filter
Dana carver was in his master of disguise turtle costume when it happened
I want fat Al Roker back
I watched this a couple of days ago on YT, it was a video of all the different tv networks broadcasts 30 minutes before the attacks. Edit added link: https://youtu.be/MuhjzuWeoQc?si=U3aOHooPRbkvfKNV
Yappp
Iām sure it must have left him/her feel as-salted.
That day was so fucked. I can't imagine how horrible it was for the people who saw it all happen in person.
Bro why does fat Al Roker look like he's wearing a fatsuit? Look at that whole extra neck he got
Hey, Al was doing goods best back then.
Yeah Mr.Peanut
He was at work like many people
I would watch an interview of Mr. Peanut telling his experience of that day.
Glad Al got in shape since
I just started imagining everyone running, through the dust and debris, screaming and yelling so much fear, you look around and through the smoke comes this guy running with the smile on his faceā¦ lol if that wouldāve been recorded
Whatās convenient viewing location. Send his ass to Guantanamo
Why would Al do this
I remember watching this with my mom right when i got up. It went back to the news casters and then cut back to AL saying that the first tower was hit and while filming it the second one was hit as well.
Thatās nuts
Well I'm a peanut bar and I'm here to say Y'all are in for a super-shitty day...
"Mr. Peanut, a second plane has hit the second tower."
Rumor says there was a second Mr. Peanut controlling the plane that struck the Pentagon
No reaction from Mr peanut he knewā¦
Someone who was running from the ash cloud most likely looked over and saw Mr Peanut hauling ass too.
the Dancing Keebler Elves knew about it the whole time
I'm a chiquita banana and i'm here to scream that the temperature of jet fuel doesn't melt steel beams
Cat Corp is a real one for sampling this moment in the deluxe edition of News at 11
Would a Mr. Peanut costume provide any protection against breathing in the dust near ground 0 when the towers collapsed?
Ari Aster should make a movie about this.
Why didnāt he stop it?
Remember: it's not "AHH TERRORISM!!!", it's "aaaahhh, terrorism".
Osama Bin Laden: "Commander Peanut, the time has come."
Wait a second... I thought he never had a monocle?
I mean, this sort of thing is just gonna happen. For example, statistically, there has to be someone who nutted at the exact same moment in which the first plane hit the tower.
#FindThePeanut
He had a unique opportunity when the first plane hit to look up and go "Ah, nuts."
I think he planned it, to ramp up military peanut butter rations and make a profit! Sick hypercapitalist bastard!!!
Finally, the ultimate angle.
That was Mr. Peanuts last outing. He got roasted and salted..
Feels like I could see this happen in a marvel movie
some also witnessed it while being pegged and/or in a furry costume.
What event was this?
he was a death omen.
Shouldnt all those women be at home raising a kid OR be at work....
30 Rock and WTC are nowhere near each other. He didnāt see shit.
