A bird smashes the nose of an airliner. How did a bird cause this damage? Planes can go through steel as demonstrated on 9/11. How can a bird do this when planes can go through steel?

  • "a plane has no crash rate, and can ONLY go through the air!"

    Nonsense, in 1988 a Boeing 747 blew up in mid air over Lockerbie in Scotland, various parts of the plane came down and totally destroyed several houses. You want to know why? Those fragments were still travelling at 500mph as they met no resistance until they hit the ground.

    So stop talking utter BS.

  • that was no bird.. .. .. .. it was superman. lol

  • A 767 traveling at 530 mph with 10,000 gallons of fuel would exert over one million foot-pounds of kinetic energy upon anything it would strike en masse (as a whole aircraft). Sorry, but beams will deflect and fail under lesser impact forces, until the kinetic energy of the mass is dissipated in some way to zero. That means that a strike by the entire aircraft will destroy most of the load-bearing integrity of a building before any damage-bearing energy is gone. So yeah, it hit hard!,

  • how could it get through wtc? for example, flight 11 was a boeing 767, which has an empty weight of 181,160 pounds (90 tons), the plane was flying at cruising speed (average cruising speed is 533 mph), while carrying 10,000 gallons of jetful, im sorry, but do you think an air craft on this type of scale would only make a dent and a few scratches on wtc?

  • @v78john Remember, these aircraft travel at very high speeds, this plane could've easily been doing 500kmh when that happened. Ever seen what happens to water at that speed? It just beads off. Birdstrikes are common but damage like this from a birdstrike is relatively uncommon. Most birds will go through the engine or bounce off a wing LE.

  • only on 911 plane noses out of steel and concrete........

  • @JTyler52 Agree completely. Watched the towers being hit with a structural engineer. He called that fire would cause a collapse within 45sec of seeing the impact. One thing I'd disagree with is 3000 being too many to kill for politics or money. They've done that before, they'll do it again, 3000 people is cheap. This is one of the things that makes it "plausible" for many.

  • @mryellow123 Skeptics are so dumb, There is clearly planes hitting the towers in every video, they just like to see other things in their misbelief. They dont understand how a plane wasnt found, hmm lets see maybe because it hit a stationary object doing 600 mph and was loaded with highly flammable jet fuel and it pretty much ended it right there? like the government would just kill 3,000 inocent people, some which were their family? they need to grow up, its kinda sad.

  • AIR KILL ! 

  • I know someone that was there that day at 9/11. it was not a pretty sight... having to sort thrugh rubble to find body parts of ur co workers... klnford is right it did happen... so shut the F up!

  • @klnford Yet they always seem to be right? Have you seen the videos of the left wing disspearing off 1 of the planes?
