To much oxgen will melt your steel pot. I've seen it before. Loose sand in your cast is also not a good thing. The aluminium was also too hot, judging from the color of the molten metal.
Well since the liquid coming out of the WTC returned to a silver color as it fell through the air it's pretty clear that it was aluminum. This is why when truthers show the following picture they crop the bottom out so you can't see it fading from glowing to silver - wwwDOTdebunking911DOTcom/capture7DOTjpg Steel would turn black as it cooled.
You might be right there. If we broadcast loose change in the middle of Afghanistan, everyone will drop their guns and fall on the ground laughing at how many morons actually believe that crap.
The reason the aluminium looks red hot or rather a red-orange glow is because the camera picks up parts of the infrared spectrum, which is invisible to the naked eye.
Being a less than professional studio quality camera, it then fails to produce an accurate representation of the visual input.
It has nothing to do with theories about it not being aluminium, and everything with people not knowing what they'r talking about. Just your average garden variety of ignorance.
@kasmackba IR usually does not look red on a camera. IR looks different on most cameras, often a purple, green, or pale blue color, depending on the sensor.
It's called physics. Combined with the process of elimination coupled by Occam's razor we get the following:
Aluminium does not glow red when molten. Molten aluminium appears a silvery metallic colour to the naked eye.
It's not a reflection of an orange object.
By process of elimination, the only part left of the electromagnetic spectrum emitted by hot aluminium is IR. Unless we count it's radioactive properties, but that has nothing to do with what we'r observing in the video.
You keep grasping after straws here. You have some kind of agenda, right? Flogging a dead horse to prove a point you were wrong about to begin with.
In my years I've melted, cast, filed, sawed, polished, milled and turned aluminium on a lathe. At no point did it ever glow red.
Nor have I ever read of aluminium being heated to a point it starts to glow red. Bauxite being the exception ofcourse. Give it a rest allready, you are wrong. It's that's simple. Now be a man about it.
That site is a pile of BS. It's been debunked by people who actually know what they'r talking about. Check out the followingl link where "Dr" Judy Wood apologizes for the fiasco.

Now watch this video again, and actually take the time to read what the creator of it says right at the spot where the camera picks up the IR radiation and displays it as red.
@kasmackba He syas it "doesn't look like that when I pour it". But does that mean it doesn't glow, or that the glow just doesn't look as it is depicted on the film? If you notice, there's some purple in there, which looks like how IR should show up. That would not be seen by his eyes. And anyway, your article only attacks the furnace pic, regarding which the author even SAID that they were not sure it was really aluminum! What about the tungsten boat experiment?
Meh, that's semantics, and a piss poor attempt at that. You'r trying to imply that aluminium at somewhere between 660 C and 1000 C glows red. That just boggles the mind of any rational human being, especially since aluminium at that temp doesn't glow red at any other place on the face of the planet.
But here, in this specific case, the very laws of physics no longer apply? That's not very likely, now is it?
Furthermore, I understand that in your mind this HAS to be glowing red, it can't be the crappy camera picking up parts of the IR spectrum. Even thought that's what's really happening.And even though in this specific case it's not the classic tell-tale ususally purple representation we are so used to see under these circumstances.
You've made up your mind that it's far more likely that we'r looking at something that violates the laws of physics.
@kasmackba It doesn't "violate the laws of physics" for it to glow at 1,000 C. What would violates physics would be for it to NOT glow at 1,000 degrees C.
Anyway, the boat experiment isn't my only evidence piece. What about this?:
watch?v=U8oFAJWwhnA
Molten aluminum, GLOWING RED, POURING RED, then *Cooling* down to "silvery" in the mold. Oh, but you can just claim that's another one of those "funny cameras" that sees "IR" as "Red"...
Regarding THIS video. The aluminium shown in this video is somewhere between 660 C and below 1000 C. At 1000 C (give or take a few degrees depending on alloy) aluminium turns white-ish and starts to cook, giving off thin trails of white vapour. No white vapour is seen in the video, it's therefore blow cooking temp.
So, aluminium below 1000 C doesn't glow red, yet it's red in the video.
Conclusion: The camera shows parts of the IR spectrum as visible light. Your' still wrong.
About "watch?v=U8oFAJWwhnA". Is also an mis-representation of reality as interpreted by our brains.
This video also shows parts of the IR spectrum as visible red light.
There are however conditions we run into when melting large quantities of AL in mid sized industrial gas fed furnaces.
When approaching 1000 C the AL turns an off white, and reflects the red glow emited by the inside lineing of the furnace. And it does indeed LOOK as if the AL is glowing, but it's just a reflection.
That' a load of BS. The author of the book, a book about smelting IRON not aluminium. Where the photos comes from says it's molten Iron. That's straight from the horses mouth. Stop trying to make it into something it's not. By even using those pictures in an article about the properties of molten aluminium is questionable at best, fraudulent at worst.
At any rate it tells volumes about "Dr" Judy's character. And trying to defend those actions, well.. that's just pathetic.
@kasmackba I'm not trying to say the "iron" photo is not iron, rather I'm saying that just because it may not be right doesn't automatically imply the boat experiment is also invalid.
This one's easy. "Dr" Judy's credebility is questionable on a really good day. No wait, scratch that. She's full of BS, a charlatan, willing to twist the truth to fit her agenda. Agenda being the operative word here. Any reasonable level headed person wouldn't give the likes of her the time of day. You'd have to be a moron of equal meassures to take anything she says seriously.
So based on her track-record, it's safe to say that her tungsten boat experiment is as fake as she is.
@kasmackba Can you provide some kind of actual critique of the boat experiment as oppose to just ASSERTING that it is invalid because a mistake was made in a different part of the page?
You'r really putting me on the spot here. I mean, how do you tell a kid there's no Santa?
I know you'r probably not going to understand this, but lets try straight forward brutal honesty:
Someone lied to you, and you believed them.
The voice you'r hearing in your head telling you "I'm right. They are wrong!". That's just your pride screwing with you. Admitting you'r wrong would be your pride writing a cheque your ego can't cash.
And when you get older, you'll know what that means.
@kasmackba So I guess every video where I can SEE THE ALUMINUM GLOWING RED HOT must have been made by a "LIAR" or a "HOAXER" who was secretly putting it out there to deceive, dupe, and fool people into thinking that aluminum does glow red... i.e. that they're all in on the HUGE VAST CONSPIRACY to cover up the "TRUTH" about 9/11... OR the camera *MUST* be showing IR...
Lets ignore the obvious logical blunders in your statement and focus on the rational shall we?
CCD sensor elements are silicon based and have peak response around 900 nm.
That is right in the zone between visible light and IR.
The result is that sometimes, with some cameras, some temp range might cause the camera to pick up the IR. Keep in mind that there are plenty of videos on UT that does'nt display AL glowing red, even though it's the same temp
@kasmackba How do you know the aluminum in those other videos is at the same temperature and aren't just _assuming_ that because you don't want to admit the possibility that aluminum really does glow red at lower temperatures than you might want to think it does?
Here we go again... how do I know they are roughly at the same temp? All the videos depict molten aluminium that hasn't turned an off white color on the surface yet, it's therefor below the cooking point. Molten aluminium below 1000 C doesn't glow red. That's a fact of life.
You'r still obsessing about that agenda you'r a believer of. A set of ideas that somehow circulate around aluminium glowing when molten.
Why don't you do an experiment yourself? Go melt some aluminium.
@kasmackba That claim about liars and hoaxers was made because you were implying all the videos where aluminum is seen glowing red are fooling me, and the "red" seen there is not real visible red light, with different cameras and everything... but apparently your actual claim is that if there's a red glow that implies the camera must be seeing IR.
The sensor element in digital cameras is called a CCD. They are made to a cost, not a narrowly defined specification. Being made of silicon they are prone to picking up IR, in fact, it would be a technical miracle if they didn't.
The problem starts when the cameras software interprets the CCD's output to form a visual output to the user. The start of the IR spectra is interpreted as visible red light and gets incorporated into the output.
Furthermore, not all cameras are made equal. Some might have fancy filters that prohibits the IR to even reach the CCD to being with. Others might have a diffrent CCD, coupled with diffrent software in the camera, parts of the IR spectra might appear red, orange or even purple.
Stop trying to generalize! I know it's comfortable for you, but it's the pleasure of a simple mind! You'r too young to understand why, but acnowlaging that you are wrong isn't a weakness. It's a strength.
Not true. A thermite reaction would have stopped once the iron oxide was used up. Unless the rust went all the way through. What does happen is the molten aluminum will actually dissolve the iron and eat through the metal. This is why aluminum foundries go to great lengths to keep iron out of a melt. It weakens the aluminum. This will happen faster if the aluminum is heated much higher than needed to melt the aluminum. Other metals don't do that to iron. This had to be aluminum.
yea, im sure he has an arc furnace that needs 1 million volts in his backyard. Youre a fucking moron. Aluminium melts quite easily with a rosette tip on an oxyacetylene torch whereas steel does not without a jet nozzle (i do that for a living).
Oh, and harvey, use dry clay with heavy parafin. it will stink, but the grain size is small enough to cast the little details.
Notice he is finished pouring the largest molten aluminum brick at 32 seconds and by 43 seconds 11 seconds later it is begining to turn silver. And to the aluminum caster having a problem with the sand you need to burn the sand with a torch applying a thin black layer of carbon which helps insulate the sand from the aluminum saw that on how it's made lol. ps i believe this is aluminum
ugh...... you dumb sheep.. the reason none of your 9/11 theories make sense is simple... the 9/11 donation movement is all about money. thats why alex jones always sounds like such an idiot.
what kinda aluminum did u use for this one? i used a blowtorch on aluminum foil and drink cans but they dont turn into liquid they sorta turn red hot and then they disintegrate and thats not what i want at all
i've no idea its extremely difficult to get metal around here or at least i havent found any dealers yet. any idea what other everyday household materials are made of higer grade aluminum? thanks
Interesting that this is the only video of 'aluminium' glowing orange... notice how it looks different to every other experiment on youtube... me thinks this is not aluminium...
Hey Harvey, didja ever in your wildest dreams imagine that 9/11 "debunkers"'d figure out that bcuz it takes eyes & a valid color-temperature chart (or blackbody radiation simulator) to determine the temperature of a molten metal such as iron or aluminum from the color of glow, your vid would be used by them, after they redefined yellow to "light orange" and produced an invalid color-temp chart?
That's bcuz nothing suggested by NIST or Chastain will make aluminum glow "light orange" at 1080C.
Well, apperently the so called 911 "truthers" don't like this video at all, as they always stated aluminum never glows orange.
Anyway, metal caster Steve Chastain has looked at the metal flow of wtc2 and concluded that it most likely was aluminum, with aluminum oxide and other material entrained in it, and most certainly not steel.
@xxHarveyMoonxx ill vote 1500 since it melts at 1250. for your sand problem, may i suggest using super fine wood ash? doesnt get much finer than that. and its free. takes forever to get enough but can reuse it as many times as you want. I use it.
I'm no truther but I have to agree that aluminum flows silver. It looks orange here because the fire and heat is reflecting off it. At certain angles, you can still see the silver base. This is a reason silver is used in most paints because it always retains that silver color.
Did I mention a temperature in a comment? Yes typical HC fire temperatures averages around 1000C. However, this isn't a maximum, just an average. I have found peak temperatures in room fires to easily reach 1200C (2192F). Temperature of a fire depends on its heat release rate as well as heat loss rate. The upper limit is the adiabatic flame temp. of around 2000C (3632F). Confining spaces and preheated air lowers losses. What was the temperature of the aluminum in this pour?
Nobody ever said aluminum can "not" appear orange. What we have said is that it will NOT appear orange at 1800 F (1000 C). If you want to argue, at least understand the conversation...
The alumnium in this video is much hotter than 1800 F, just ask the person who poured the aluminum!

I know that certain airsoft guns have a chunk of aluminum in them for weight.
But aluminum siding from Home Depot works too.

Interesting that this is the only video of 'aluminium' glowing orange... notice how it looks different to every other experiment on youtube... me thinks this is not aluminium...

no it is, he just overheated it.
That's also why his castings look like crap.

how do you overheat something that melts?
isnt it like if you buy something for like 15.25 and you use a 20 to pay for it?
it doesnt matter does it?

Hey Harvey, didja ever in your wildest dreams imagine that 9/11 "debunkers"'d figure out that bcuz it takes eyes & a valid color-temperature chart (or blackbody radiation simulator) to determine the temperature of a molten metal such as iron or aluminum from the color of glow, your vid would be used by them, after they redefined yellow to "light orange" and produced an invalid color-temp chart?
That's bcuz nothing suggested by NIST or Chastain will make aluminum glow "light orange" at 1080C.

Well, apperently the so called 911 "truthers" don't like this video at all, as they always stated aluminum never glows orange.
Anyway, metal caster Steve Chastain has looked at the metal flow of wtc2 and concluded that it most likely was aluminum, with aluminum oxide and other material entrained in it, and most certainly not steel.

Some idiots are suggesting this looks like the yellow-glowing thermite spill recorded falling from WTC2.
Aluminum glows orange at about 1500 degrees Centigrade and that's much hotter than its melting point.
9/11 "debunkers" typically rely on an invalid color-temperature chart and combine that with inexplicably vague things like this video.

hey boot you suck 1,956 viewings they feel sorry for you lol!
l8trs ... p.s did you view it that many times loooser..loloL!

so how hot was the aluminum that you poured in this video apparently someone wants to know

@xxHarveyMoonxx ill vote 1500 since it melts at 1250. for your sand problem, may i suggest using super fine wood ash? doesnt get much finer than that. and its free. takes forever to get enough but can reuse it as many times as you want. I use it.

@heafers84 Aluminum melts at 1200 F

I'm no truther but I have to agree that aluminum flows silver. It looks orange here because the fire and heat is reflecting off it. At certain angles, you can still see the silver base. This is a reason silver is used in most paints because it always retains that silver color.

Can't viewers see a silver color as the "molten metal" pours down onto the street?

Did I mention a temperature in a comment? Yes typical HC fire temperatures averages around 1000C. However, this isn't a maximum, just an average. I have found peak temperatures in room fires to easily reach 1200C (2192F). Temperature of a fire depends on its heat release rate as well as heat loss rate. The upper limit is the adiabatic flame temp. of around 2000C (3632F). Confining spaces and preheated air lowers losses. What was the temperature of the aluminum in this pour?

Huh, orange molten aluminum! is this what 9/11 conspiracy theorists claim can't be done?
dotsontom 3 years ago
Nobody ever said aluminum can "not" appear orange. What we have said is that it will NOT appear orange at 1800 F (1000 C). If you want to argue, at least understand the conversation...
The alumnium in this video is much hotter than 1800 F, just ask the person who poured the aluminum!

use plaster molds, BUT DRY THEM COMPLETELY BEFORE USE!
