Looking at 9/11 with actual science

This thread has obviously ran its course.

Yep, I'm taking my engineering degree and going to find another thread where geeks like me can unite and talk about physicsand all that good stuff...

Great, if you don't mind, I will follow you over there. I have always had a real interest in that ESP stuff.

I am a physic. I can predict your future movements.

Holy crap, this thread gave me a headache. I'm going to have to agree with shibumiseeker's Occam's razor conclusion. While there are many interesting and "unexplained" occurences that led to the collapse of the WTC buildings, there is no conclusive counter-theory compelling enough for me to scream conspiracy. I am open to more investigations and further questioning, but it's gonna take some hard evidence for me to be on board with the "truthers." Simply questioning the widely accepted explanations in no way proves the counterpoint.

Keep up with that kind of talk and they won't let you attend next year's burning of the Warren Commission report.

I wish I understood science. And engineering of structures. (sigh)

When I'm teaching rigging and technical rescue I refer to "Roadrunner Physics" a lot...

This thread went from full-on Fail to full-on Win.

This makes me happy. I feel all warm and fuzzy down in my innards. (that may very well be gas, though, as I've been having issues)

And it won't let me rep most of you again for the time being.

Bummer.

Is that the kind where a guy can leap into the air and then really get his legs running fast before he comes down so that he takes off at a high rate of speed with a comical zinging sound?

Don't start trying to hug people again. A couple of the guys get carried away.... yeah, you guys know who you are.

That, and when the anchor fails as long as nobody actually notices that nothing is supporting the litter, the load will not fall.

Don't tell me Acme Products had an office in WTC7!

Yep. The explosion was from all those rocket powered roller skates.

 

[dross]

Nobody surpassed RoadRunner for pure cool.

 

[Hornett]

You are right.

Aliens did it.

Finally, somebody get's it.

 

[96firephoenix]

CRAP! they don't sell tin foil over here in Europe except as wrapping for chocolate bars! better hurry up and eat some chocolate


and... 30 pages later, this thread has not changed a single opinion...

It certainly did, why do you think my supplies are down...

A. You don't know that.
B. Was it supposed to?

Yep WTC7 just fell down. Because the twin towers knocked out the LOBBY. Yep. That would collapse ANY building.

Who cares about the witness statements about controlled demolition of WTC7 or the VIDEO documentation of survivors INSIDE WTC7 showing what little damage there was to the structure.

And who cares that multiple government agencies including the FBI and CIA had offices in there. That means nothing doesn't it?

I was an EOD officer and I've seen the video. Nothing looked or sounded like a controlled demo to me. The building wasn't prepped or wrapped. They weren't even playing that cool music that they play when they blow up old casinos on the Strip in Vegas.

So you're saying the govenment blew up their own offices because they what, saw all the other buildings falling around them and wanted new furniture?

Here's an idea. Take a chair. Screw the legs to the floor. Put about 1000 pounds on it. Cut off one of the legs. See what happens. Just a SWAG, but I'm thinking it will fall down. Without the benefit or use of any explosives.

You are right.

Illegal Aliens did it.
