Despite these challenges, the overall result was a poignant look at some of the often overlooked rescue efforts from the day — and the thread went viral. "Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would have 21 million impressions and over 300,000 likes in 24 hours," Schatz said."The really remarkable thing to me is how few negative comments there were, especially given the anonymity of Twitter."
