zeeboost Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Here’s a new one – this one is from the attacks of 9/11; specifically the one on the Pentagon. I’ve heard that it may have been a cover up because the gov’t doesn’t want the public to know that we are vulnerable to missile attacks from inside our country.

tannji Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 It has already been debunked, dont have the link handy, but apparently that was something cooked up by someone in france.... The jist of it was that the momentum of plane carried the parts inside, and the part of the pentagon that it hit had just completed renovation, including some pretty extreme concrete and steel reinforcing, that limited the initial appearance of damage. Later, after the jet fuel had a chance to burn, that entire section collapsed, like the Trade Towers did. Also, the reason there were no parts to see afterwards was similar to the other two jets, in a fire that intense, the parts simply burned.

Pop N Wood Posted September 13, 2004 Share Posted September 13, 2004 Rhino liner. They actually used that to "seal" the concrete in the new part of the Pentagon to limit collateral damage from flying concrete blocks in the event of a bomb. Amazing stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
