Thermite is an incendiary mixture that burns at 4500 degrees Fahrenheit when ignited. Some 9/11 researchers suspect that it was used to weaken the steel structure of the World Trade Center before it collapsed, and that it caused the mysterious molten steel at Ground Zero..

Mythbusters, National Geographic, and Jesse Ventura's "Conspiracy Theory" program have all featured thermite demonstrations on TV, and in every case the thermite was shown to be ineffectual in cutting the steel. Then a Florida engineer, Jonathan Cole, demonstrated thermite's capabilities. When intelligently applied, it can cut vertical surfaces, cut columns, cut bolts and even cut bolt heads.

The video examines the apparent inability of world-class explosives experts at New Mexico Tech to make thermite work, and considers that large amounts of federal funding might be a factor.

For the complete video on Jonathan Cole's thermite work, see this video:

  • slow the words down. couldnt finish a sentence without the words changing

  • @312shoulin123 That's what the pause button is for.

  • It would be great if someone actually cuts through a VERTICAL column.

    Oh wait, you can't do that with thermite.

    Seriously, people, do you even listen to yourselves?

  • @endimion17 You didn't watch the video. Jonathan Cole cuts through vertical columns.

  • @punxsutawneybarney So the whole towers were rigged with such neat inner steel casings (I wonder how could "they" hide that) and connected by wires all together. It all survived the plane impact and then was activated in a rapid succession which resulted in "squibs" that surprisingly aren't glowing.

    Despite the fact that huge inward bowing of the exit hole walls was observed, which is a direct evidence of a failure NIST described.

    I think it's "a little bit" overstretched. Goatse style.

  • @endimion17 How do you know they were steel casings? Maybe copper or aluminum casings were used. Why would wires be needed when wireless ignition would be neater? Actually there are pictures and video that seem to show glowing column ends. NIST has not explained how a partial failure on one side propagates at the speed of sound to the other side of the building across a robust, cross-braced, and highly redundant forest of 47 core columns.

  • @punxsutawneybarney i dont want to pause the vid every couple seconds

  • THESE TESTS LACK THE WEIGHT LOAD ON THE BEAMS just my opinion

  • Really cool!

    But I'm not surprised as i have played with thermite my self. Even if there is enought heat it takes some time to melt the steel, due to the energy needed.

    When placing thermite "open air" or just behind a big plate, most of it ends up as molten iron at the wrong place or is spread out over a big area and cools down too fast

    Those cutting containers put the heat to the right spot and concentrate it to a small spot so less steel has to be molten to make a cut (= less energy needed)

  • @punxsutawneybarney You clearly don't understand the purpose of such casing. You could've as well said it was a paper casing.

    It would be logical for such casing to be something which will melt at high temperature, in order to hold the melt while it does its job, don't you think? And it still doesn't explain how can it be synchonized. Because it CAN'T. You know nothing about demolition.

    Glowing column ends? I'd like to see that.

    Speed of sound? Whst the fuck are you talking about?
