see those columns fall straight down

Leo, I'm not sure why people are still trying to peddle that hoax. Anyone who watches the video can clearly see those columns fall straight down and leave the dust that was on them hanging in the air. Dust is lighter than steel columns. Dust takes longer to fall down than the columns do.
Anyone who watches the video can clearly see those columns evaporate and leave dust hanging in the air.
I have already discounted your reply.
I acknowledge that your vision and judgement are sound. Others with sound vision and judgement see steel turning to dust. Do you acknowledge this?
...airliner crashes and subsequent jet fuel fires caused massive twin towers to collapse. For one thing, if that had happened, there would have been one million tons of debris to clean up. Yet observers marveled at how little debris was left. Striking confirmation occurred at 12:44 pm on September 12, 2001, when ABC anchor, Peter Jennings, asked ABC reporter George Stephanopoulos on the street at the WTC: “Jackie Judd and several other people keep asking us, when you look at where the towers used to stand, there is surprisingly so little rubble. Where did all the rubble go?”
Stephanopoulos: “That’s a very good question Peter…one volunteer, Robert Grelinsky, explained to me the reason there is so little rubble is that all of it simply fell down, into the ground and was pulverized, evaporated.”
Stephanopoulos’ explanation is nonsense, although understandable because it was a mystery yet he needed to come up with something. Solids from a pulverized building do not somehow change into vapors, a gaseous state.
What happened? Short answer: each quarter-mile high tower turned to dust in mid-air. An unprecedented event but a fact nonetheless. Remember how dust blocked out the sun for 10 minutes? And dust an inch deep covered downtown? And fine dust wafted into the upper atmosphere? Those were the towers! Videos, eyewitnesses, seismic data, an undamaged “bathtub” (slurry wall) keeping the waters of the Hudson river back, and all other forensic evidence confirm the towers turned to dust rather than crashing to the earth.
What turned so much steel to dust? Only an exotic, “black” technology could do it.

There wasn't a million tons to start with!!!!

The buildings were demolished professionally. This is self evident imho. 45 minutes of localised fires CANNOT cause a total building collapse striaght down. It defies physics and common sense.

Please tell us how many tons there were?

How about you back the claim you posted that there was a million tons of material in the buildings....

What defies physics and common sense is that someone thinks these buildings should not collapse "straight down" - how else does a building collapse??
It sank into the swamp. So I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So I built a third. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp. But the fourth one stayed up. And that's what you're going to get, Lad, the strongest castle in all of England.

In none of the videos have I been able to tell that it came from the fuselage, and not closer to the nose. It's hard to tell in that shot, just as it was hard to tell on the day it happened.
The crew oxygen cylinder for the 767 is located in the nose, outboard of the nose wheel, in the equipment bay. Normal pressure of the bottle is 1850 psi, but it can go as high as 2000 psi. If that bottle were to have failed, the damage would have been further forward, in the nose, under the cockpit, and it would have done a lot of damage to the plane.
The only logical explanation is a static charge.

As for the plane not being in public air - I would imagine like test cars they must have future 'beta test' airplanes.

Can you comment on the motion blur issue raised here?

Sure approx 96,000 tons of steel and about 80-90,000 tons of concrete for the floor slabs in each tower add in services ie pipework, cables, h&v, glazing and cladding it works out at about 220-235,000 tons in each tower.

No. The HOAX is the utter stupidity of convincing people of outrageous lunacy on the basis of the lowest quality video material available without even the slightest effort to ever seek out copies of the original.
Why people rely on crap multi-generational heavily-compressed videos from a time when digital video started out low-quality and poorly compressed (2001), is the absolute pinnacle of mad idiocy.

Your language leaves a lot to be desired. It is funny that how, as the years went
by, better quality 9/11 footage started emerging from the woodwork.
Better quality software allowed for upgraded graphics.
