"The Beer-Can" Example

Wednesday, 13 October 2010 18:28

I have been involved in a running comment battle and got into a discussion of the South Tower tipping. I came up with "The-Beer-Can" example which I thought I would share:

http://www.daytondailynews.com/news/dayton-news/were-twin-towers-downed-by-demolitions-group-thinks-so-906317.html

"The Beer-Can" Example (part 1 of 3):

He said: "... Well, see, yeah it did hit something - the lower intact structure!"

We are talking about the intact structure of the top 30 floors of the South Tower tilting 22 degrees. I said it should have toppled-over as an intact piece to be found crushed below.

You said it crushed everything below because, as it hit every floor, it destroyed that floor and it kept crushing. For this to happen, it must be completely disconnected from the structure below.

"The Beer-Can" Example (part 2 of 3):

To simulate this yourself, take two beer cans. Stack one on top of the other (i.e. make a two piece tower) and hold it out about an arms length away. If you don't shake, it will remain balanced. With your other hand, tilt the top beer-can 22 degrees. Like YOUR version of the tower story the top half is disconnected from the bottom half (or it couldn't fall because it would still be supported). Release the top beer-can and watch it fall to the side.

"The Beer-Can" Example (part 3 of 3):

If, when you let go of the top beer-can, you also start moving the second can downward, the top beer-can will continue to tip over and fall. Only if you drop both beer-cans at the same instant, so they are both in 'free fall,' will they remain in the same relative position (until the floor).

The only way for the lower beer-can to 'free fall' is if all the supports below it are destroyed. They had just been there.

Explosive demolition could do that!

WTC Building #7, a 47-story high-rise not hit by an airplane, exhibited all the characteristics of classic controlled demolition with explosives:

Rapid onset of collapse
Sounds of explosions
Symmetrical structural failure
Free-fall acceleration through the path of what was greatest resistance
Imploded, collapsing completely, landing almost in its own footprint
Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
Expert corroboration from the top European controlled demolition professional
Foreknowledge of "collapse" by media, NYPD, FDNY

In the aftermath of WTC7's destruction, strong evidence of demolition using incendiary devices was discovered:

FEMA finds rapid oxidation and intergranular melting on structural steel samples
Several tons of molten metal reported by numerous highly qualified witnesses
Chemical signature of the incendiary thermite found in solidified molten metal, and dust samples

WTC7 exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire:

Slow onset with large visible deformations
Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance (laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling, to the side most damaged by the fires)
Evidence of fire temperatures capable of softening steel
High-rise buildings with much larger, hotter, and longer lasting fires have never collapsed

As seen in this revealing photo, the Twin Towers' destruction exhibited all of the characteristics of destruction by explosives:

Destruction proceeds through the path of greatest resistance at nearly free-fall acceleration
Improbable symmetry of debris distribution
Extremely rapid onset of destruction
Over 100 first responders reported explosions and flashes
Multi-ton steel sections ejected laterally
Mid-air pulverization of 90,000 tons of concrete & metal decking
Massive volume of expanding pyroclastic-like clouds
1200-foot-diameter debris field: no "pancaked" floors found
Isolated explosive ejections 20–40 stories below demolition front
Total building destruction: dismemberment of steel frame
Several tons of molten metal found under all 3 high-rises
Evidence of thermite incendiaries found by FEMA in steel samples
Evidence of explosives found in dust samples

The three high-rises exhibited none of the characteristics of destruction by fire:

Slow onset with large visible deformations
Asymmetrical collapse which follows the path of least resistance (laws of conservation of momentum would cause a falling, intact, from the point of plane impact, to the side most damaged by the fires)
Evidence of fire temperatures capable of softening steel
High-rise buildings with much larger, hotter, and longer-lasting fires have never collapsed
