Ozzy Osbourne has described how he felt excited after the 9/11 terrorist attacks saying it was ‘my kind of craziness’.
The Black Sabbath frontman was in New York the day two airliners hijacked by militants from al Qaeda crashed into the World Trade Centre’s twin towers.
The attacks caused the deaths of 2,753 people in what was one of the deadliest attacks on American soil.
In a new interview, the 65-year-old recalled how he was in the city the day of the terrorist atrocities.
He explained that he was standing on the steps of his hotel in the city, describing the scene as, ‘f***** weird.
And when asked by Shortlist magazine if he was frightened, he replied: ‘I wasn’t scared, I was excited! It was my kind of craziness, y’know.’
He then went on to describe the usually bustling streets of New York City as like an old cowboy film with newspapers floating around the streets.
He added: ‘It was so f****** weird. Everybody just backed off Manhattan because they didn’t know if it was an all-out thing or what.’
However, he also spoke of his concern about the current threat of terrorism saying he hopes that ISIS ‘don’t get going’.
He explained: ‘I think sooner or later one of these crazy f****** is going to get a nuclear weapon and f*** a lot of people up.’
