9/11 Experiments: The Great Thermate Debate
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5d5iIoCiI8g

Please, watch this whole thing. Rate it. Then leave a comment.

National Geographic poses the questions: "Was thermite the main cause for the collapse? Is thermite a viable option? Can thermite of any type burn through steel beams?"

The answer from National Geographic: " Despite 175 pounds of thermite packed around the column, it remained undamaged. Our results seem clear, if thermite can't melt this small column, it wouldn't have had a chance to melt through the much larger columns in the World Trade Center."

  • Before making your mind please watch "THERMITE CUTTING STEEL - VALIDATED - EXPERIMENTALLY DEMONSTRATED" This test was not done right, the funnel lets the heat go upwards instead of in the steel.

  • @eugenemr

    This video demonstrates that it is possible to cut steel columns with thermite. Watch the whole thing and then vote on it.

  • What a load of shit

  • @PeterMWeller

    This video as a whole? Or Discovery? If you could elaborate a little more, maybe I could help explain what this video is about.

see all

  • There are many videos (even on my channel) showing thermite cutting right through steel beams, and using much smaller amounts. National Geographic is a joke.

  • "Those people will believe anything"

    LOL, says the guy who belongs to a group of no nothings that believe in reptilian aliens.

  • the conclusion of this video - "It is within the realm of possibility, so therefore it was". About as rational as a fundamentalist lunatic.

  • Google "China Syndrome at the WTC"

  • @8real I was just reacting to the flavour of the doc. where in less than a minute I could tell that the 'experiment' was set up to fail, I've seen other vids. where thermate or similar was able to cut (not melt thru) steel. I have now watched the whole vid. and now see what you were doing combining the two points of view and admit I was too hasty in my criticism, Thanks.
