People letâs get few things right. I apologize ahead of time for the long post, but Iâd like to shed some light in these theories, formulas and calculations.
First, this comment from esuperbo caught my attention and compelled me to chime in.
ââ¦at many incidents you're lucky to find something more than foot or two squareâ.
A B757 crash leaving only a 2 foot square? You are kidding right?
kjkent1 esuperbo and others,
Yes energy involved is high. But MASS DOES NOT disappear unless it is fully converted to energy, use the old faithful E=mc^2 ---- how much is that. But it would require a nuclear explosion and fusible/fusible materials
Ok back to the basic principles.
One needs to have some basic understanding of the following physics and/or engineering concepts:
Conservation of energy, conservation of mass, momentum, momentum conservation, energy absorbed during elastic deformation, plastic deformation, upon impact, materials fracture stress limits to start with the basics.
Iâll try to put the principle in simple terms. The planeâs kinetic energy relative to earth as a reference point, is ½ m*^2 what happens to that energy?
Upon impact :
The energy is converted to 1. elastic deformation, upon the elastic stress limit is exceeded 2. additional energy is absorbed into plastic deformation, and 3 after the plastic limit gets exceeded we have fracture/failure. The remainder of the energy scatters the fractured object parts around, a very small portion is also converted into heat and sound waves.
The TOTAL MASS IS CONSERVED. Each object has suffered deformations and depending on the amount of energy, it has gone through itâs own limits all the way to fracture failure.
To illustrate,
Go up to your second floor and drop a penny on the cement driveway, does it disappear? It comes to an abrupt stop âinstantlyâ. Drop a glass. Better yet grab your magnum (if you have one) and shoot the cement, âinstantâ bullet stoppage, you will always find the bullet remains, it just doesn'tât disappear, (exit nozzle velocity is over 2000 f/s over 2900 mph)
---Better yet, look up terminal velocity of a free falling object, and then go to NASAâs site and look at satellites that have been crashing on earth that hadn'tât completely burned through the atmosphere.
Keep in mind the plane was not an explosive charge.
For example an explosive charge converts itâs mass through a chemical reaction from solids to gasses (e.g. smell of cordite) and displaces huge amount of air and thus the explosive effect. Total mass is still conserved. Then you will find little solid mass left behind, portions of casing, guide winglets etc.
Steel, aluminum, glass, composites, people are not explosives.
. I wonât tell you much about my background but I have discussed this extensively with many fellow professionals, the evidence does not support the âofficialâ story. If you donât trust of follow what I say, I will ask you then to take your theories, calculations, and facts from the incident to your local engineering college, and ask anyone what they think, better yet go to a Dynamics class and ask the professor there.
Ohhh and by your theory, do calculate the total energy of the Towerâs collapse, (magnitudes grater than the plane crash) then there really should have been nothing left to clean up
HOWEVER; Why even bother, just listed to the first response people on site.
What is really the clincher here, the coronerâs remarks. He was there first on site following the âcrashâ
â..I stopped being a coroner after 20 mins, there were no bodies anywhere, there was no plane,⦠it was like someone had dug up a ditch and dumped few scrap metal parts in it⦠â
6000 gallons of fuel and you only see an instant plum like a mortar going off (see my previous posts and pics)
Not to mention how is it possible for the plane âto be annihilated â but lookie here we got the DNA confirms on the passengers. (steel vaporized into thin air steel melts 2700-3000 deg, but hey flesh and bones survived got separated and DNA was confirmed)
Is this the plane âimprint on the ground? Fuselage and the wings?
The âofficialâ story does not hold water, period.
I tried hard to find answers, I looked at debunking sites, re-examined my materials science references, talked to other professional engineers. It just doesnât add up.
Few of the many things we must consider are represented here

Read what I wrote starting with
-Letâs be honest folks, Where is, what is, the solid ...-
Guys, I do understand were you come from. I also bought the âofficialâ story initially, within all the chaos, tears and pain, logic was overtaken by emotions. Run behind George seeking revenge, war, blow them to kingdom come. But things did not make too much sense once it started settling down and more info was coming out from the official sources. Read my link aboveâ¦
I recalled the Cessna flying off course few miles near the white house, and the F-16s were on top of it within minutes, and here we had 4 planes for such a long time and no fighters to intercept??? Now there is something very wrong there. And I started searching, on both the so called âdebunking sitesâ and the so called âconspiracy onesâ. I looked that the tapes, and the available facts from the âofficialâ sources. It just doesn'tât add up. Hence, total180 (someone had asked in a pm long time ago).
And last but not least, when a theory fits ALL the evidence and can explain ALL that happened, THAT theory no matter how difficult to accept, that theory is not a conspiracy theory, it is the truth.
Well it looks like we are at stage 2.
