TikToker Mark Bowling revealed his "craziest one-in-a-million tale," explaining that his father had always wanted a son and had "kept trying and just couldn't give up." Mark's birth would have been a source of immense joy for his father, as he had three sisters before him.

Mark wasn't born on his due date when he arrived, but he can't remember whether he was born early or late. In any case, Mark was born on September 11, 2001, the day his father was supposed to attend a security meeting on the "101st floor of Tower One of the Twin Towers."

Of course, Mark's father had to cancel all of his work obligations for that day due to the birth of his long-awaited son.

Mark's father may have been at the World Trade Center on the day of 9/11, sitting high up in a conference at the time when the planes crashed into the buildings if Mark had arrived on his due date or a different day entirely.

What should have been a day of great personal joy for Mark's family turned out to be one of the most tragic and devastating days in American history, and they would have no doubt been acutely aware of how close they came to losing one of their beloved family members.

One TikTok user wrote: "You saved your dad's [sic] life by existing."

A second joked: "I brought you into this world" "ok but i kept you in it" [sic]

A third similarly quipped: "I'm the only reason you're alive. YOU DO THE DISHES."

A fourth wrote: "I can't believe you saved your dad's [sic] life by existing. The universe was really there for him to see his dream."
