An American living in Paris has revealed the incredible story of how he was present at two major terrorist attacks, and survived both.



Fourteen years after the man, named only as Matthew, stood at the foot of the World Trade Center in New York City and fled for his life as the first plane crashed into the Twin Towers. Again, he was among the crowd at the Bataclan concert hall in Paris to watch the Eagles of Death Metal.



According to the Telegraph, the 36-year-old was shot in the leg on Friday night as he escaped from the gig when terrorist gunmen stormed the venue and killed 89 people.



Matthew said he instantly recognised the sound of gunshots and ran for the exit, attributing his quick thinking to his "American culture". Now that's a man who still has a purpose on earth.
