What ..huh? Thats not molten metal, its water from the firefighters in that picture, also, the main beam is not twisted or bent and did not come crashing down, your pic plainly shows the road laying over the top of it. The large pillar is made of concrete and when concrete gets heated it tends to start to flake off and then disintegrate. the beams used in that bridge are about 1/10 the size of the beams in the towers. Using a bridge as your basis of argument is again like comparing apples and screwdrivers, find a steel skyscraper that burnt and fell down, you can't because its only happened 3 times EVER, and coincidentally all on the same day and at the same place. I can show you lots of pics of burnt skyscrapers that DON"T fall and have already. Oh and having a pilots license I can very much tell you that in airspace that is as congested as New York you definitely have to follow a flight plan and can barely go off that plan before the tower will call you on it and demand you get back into your designated path, You don't get to just fly anywhere, YOU MUST follow your flight plan and the towers instructions, there is no other way or they call the authorities. You have to ask for permission to do anything not on your plan.
bryant228. You are certainly NOT an engineer of any caliber or perhaps your just not a structural engineer but an electrical or service engineer, Custodial perhaps?. If the weight was a factor then the towers should have collapsed before they were even finished being built, Because the weight of the plane was certainly well within the structural limits. it sounds to me like your saying that the towers somehow miraculously by god became some 1000 million tons heavier, cuz any real engineer could tell you that they way overbuild skyscrapers so they dont just come falling down when the wind blows. And these buildings were DESIGNED to be hit MULTIPLE times by Large passenger Airplanes. Sorry weight certainly had nothing at all to do with this. As an engineer you would also know that burning jet fuel cannot soften or melt steel, its just not hot enough. And for those of you who think jet fuel is volatile and explosive, your WRONG, I can throw lit cigarettes into a pool of jet A and have a VERY good chance that nothing would happen , the cig would be put out by the fuel without ever lighting its just not a very volatile fuel like gasoline or alcohol. Takes a lot of compression and heat to get it to ignite, like diesel fuel but even less refined. Real life isn't Hollywood Make Believe. In Die Hard 2 he lit the trail of jet fuel and make the plane blow up in mid air, An impossibility if there ever was one. I see on CSI all the time where they take some crappy ATM picture and blow it up and their special picture computer extapolates the data and is able to magnify a pixel of information to provide them with the proof of a license plate reflected in the window of the store across the street, HA HA HA HA there is no such computer that is able to do that, its impossible . ATM cameras are digital and 1 pixel of info is 1 pixel of info, not 100, 000 more when magnified. Or how about when a car goes off the cliff and explodes on impact, another HOLLYWOOD moment and still people believe those things happen. Drive 1000 cars off a cliff and my money is on none of them blowing up. Yet people actually believe their car will blow up if it went off, people are easy to pull the wool over their eyes and get them to believe ANYTHING if done correctly. You can even get people to believe that Steel ( not steel reinforced ) Skyscrapers burn so hot they disintegrate in midair and collapse in fairly nice heaps of steel and concrete.
The towers were closed for 2 weeks prior to this happening, only maintenance personnel were allowed inside. this was all under the guise of computer and electrical updates, you can look that fact up, so plenty of time to install the things needed for this to happen.
... same old same old ... what ever ... and if you don't like the attitude ... you don't have to post ... pretty simple concept don't you think?
