Why are there fireballs and smoke coming out the middle floors in video clips of the Twin Towers?
Are you referring to what Truthers like to call "squibs" ... come on Gladiator think about it for a minute with some simple common sense.
The Towers were NOT solid objects like trees ... they were (in common with all buildings) filled mostly with AIR.
Look around the room you are in ... guess what, over 90% of it is air !!!
Now do you understand anything about how air behaves within that space ... Boyle's Law ... which relates to gases ... air is a gas.
And that
air reacts to changes, such as pressure in defined and measurable ways ...
Air pressure is the FORCE exerted by the WEIGHT of a COLUMN of AIR above a particular location.
A column of air 1 SQUARE INCH measured from sea level to the top of the atmosphere would weigh approximately 14.7 POUNDS.
Making I standard atmosphere (1atm) = 14.7 pounds per square inch (14.7 psi)
(Have you ever felt your ears POP, say in an aircraft ... that is because of a CHANGE in that air PRESSURE)
Now, pressure x volume is a CONSTANT ... so if you HALVE the volume, you DOUBLE the pressure.
Cram twice as much air into one floor as was initially there and you will achieve a pressure of 2atm = 29.4psi which is therefore equal to 14.7psi of OVERPRESSURE ... and so forth !!!
The COMPRESSION caused by the descending MASS of the air contained in the Towers was more than sufficient to create OVERPRESSURE in individual floors ... channelled out through transfer lobbies, open doors, etc.
Now, clearly, as the towers were COLLAPSING, the VOLUME was DECREASING and if the volume decreases, then Boyle’s Law states the PRESSURE must INCREASE ...
Ergo anything in between will get shoved out of the way ... think of it as a giant syringe !!!
The so-called "squibs" were merely debris mixed with AIR being pushed out by the INCREASING pressure.
So, simplistically put, the Tower cores collapsing acted like giant plungers in a syringe ... squeesing the air into smaller spaces and because of the STAGGERED arrangement of elevators, stairwells and transfer points ... then that air escaped where it could ...
Now, who knows how many doors were open ... so air would escape easier through some and not others.
See ... simple !!!
What are all the formulas for all the incendiary materials, that will cust steel beams, and what are the residue signatures of each?
Come on think about this too ... just because INGREDIENTS were found that were indicative of thermite ... does NOT mean it was
only thermite !!!
Guess what Gladiator ... chemistry is a multi-application field ... where the SAME ingredients can be found in MULTIPLE formulae !!!
If you have a fire in your garage in the debris you will find traces which will have the same chemical signatures as found in many different explosive or dangerous elements.
Guess what Gladiator ... those are all base ingredients in things like BLEACH, FERTILIZER, PAINT THINNER and ALL the other everyday ordinary items found in everyday ordinary sheds and garages.
So, YOU Gladiator, in the innocence of your garage, will have
many of the ingredients for manufacturing explosive or incendiary devices ... does that automatically mean you were making bombs ???
Of course not !!!
Just because there were traces found that
share the make-up of thermite is in NO way proof that thermite was used ... those traces could just as easily come from ANY one of the other thousands of chemical mixtures available.
And, like previously mentioned, the FACT that the BY-PRODUCTS, in their SIGNATURE amounts, of thermite WERE NOT FOUND is indicative of ZERO thermite !!!
Stop thinking so one-dimentionally ...:doh
Why do the official reports neglect to mention the molten steel found inthe WTC rubble?
Because there wasn't any ???
WHY would molten metal/steel be important anyway ... WHAT exactly would that prove ???
That it got really, really hot in the rubble pile ... we already know that !!!
And don't forget that steel was not the ONLY metal that would make up the buildings ... there are MANY metals that melt at far lower temperatures than steel ... so why couldnt "molten metal" be any conglomerate mixture of some of these other metals too ???
Why are there photos of vertical strucural beams falling away from a tower, with the ends cut fairly cleanly?
Come on now ... how can you tell from a few blurry photographs and video that there were, in fact, clean cuts.
Images taken from a distance will FORESHORTEN ... which give a false perspective with little real detail
Perspective and scale ... it is IMPOSSIBLE for the human eye to see DETAIL from a distance !!!
Next you'll be on about the eyewitness whom claimed he saw no windows on the plane ...
Reality check ... that guy was viewing nearly TWO MILES AWAY !!!
Why do you seem to need IMAX quality imagery of what was an unprecedented live, chaotic, dynamic, ever-changing event ... people are NOT standing around with hi-speed/hi-res media equipment ... they filmed it on
ordinary mobile phone cameras, tourists with
ordinary video ???
If somebody did assist W to garner public suppot to get a US Congressional vote to invade Iraq, and British Parliment, who might it have been?
So
that's why there were, and are, HUGE anti-war protests, demonstrations and campaining !!!
You do ... but your worrying about a fantasy.
There are far more immediate and real things you should be spending your time, effort and energy on.
Gladiator, I have zero reason to lie to you about ANY of this ... hell, I am not even an American citizen, and have never lived there ... but I am someone with the life experience and wisdom of a grand-mother whom has had a career which furnished me with the knowledge of real science, so can easily spot the junk spouted by conspiracy sites for what it is ... JUNK !!!
When facts are inconvenient, humans are good at Denial, and put the inconvenient facts ot of mind.
Some FACTS are carved in stone ... so the denial comes mostly from conspiracy theorists.
Seriously just HOW many different, sometimes mutually inexclusive, theories are there out there ... there had been the exact same stuff spouted for YEARS ... re-hashed time and time again ... and yet have NEVER come to pass ???
Example Nibiru ... been "claimed" to be real and immediate at least three times now ...
~~~~~~~~~~
Gladiator as many Truthers do they always tell you to look for the money trail ... well do that for the conspiracy sites and compare them to the debunking sites.
911guide - Truth Movement Merchandise
And do you know what stands out ... the DEBUNKING sites seem to be able to function and put forward their message WITHOUT recourse to selling stuff or donate buttons !!!
WTF has a WALL CLOCK or a DOG BOWL got to do with a quest for truth ???
Wall Clock > Pilotsfor911truth.org : pilotsfor911truth.org gear
Large Pet Bowl > Pilotsfor911truth.org : pilotsfor911truth.org gear
(18 quid for a dog bowl ... now that's expensive :thumbdown)
So HOW can debunking sites manage NOT to have the hard sell ... and the conspiracy/twoofie ones can't ???
