Inconsistencies

• Hyman Brown WTC Const MGR over-designed to
  withstand almost anything
• Impact of plane similar to pencil into a screen

7
Fire melted steel?

• 1517 degrees F max for jet fuel fires at optimum
  conditions
• Melting point of steel 2750 degrees F
• Black smoke signifies oxygen starved fire

Impact to Collapse

• WTC 1 (north)
• Impact 846 am
• Collapse 1028 am

• WTC 2 (south)
• Impact 903 am
• Collapse 959 am

10

• Somehow south tower collapsed first
• Most fuel burnt off in huge fireball
• Collapsed 56 minutes after impact!

11
Controlled demolition

• Professor Steven Jones
• Department of Physics and Astronomy
• Brigham Young University
• Peer reviewed paper
• Several reasons to challenge government sponsored
  Reports

12
Molten metal

• present underneath rubble for weeks following
  attack
• Consistent with thermite charges

13
Ejection of steel beams

• Horizontal ejection for hundreds of feet
• Far below collapse area

Dust Clouds

• Nearly all contents were pulverized beyond
  recognition
• 425,000 cubic yards of concrete per tower turned
  to dust
• Another indication of explosives
