It was like a bullet; only someone as dumb as Alex Jones would disagree!

Bermas was spewing lies and being corrected by Dylan. Both liars look kind of weak on facts (Dylan/Bermas for the mentally challenged)

Dominates?

Do you hear what he is actually saying?

He's a loud mouth, that's for sure, but what he's saying is total crap.

He was comparing the SPEED of the plane. Do you know how much damage can be caused by soemthing traveling at 800 feet per second?

Give a liar something to lie about, and he can be convincing enough to look to be telling ot truth. The only thing is, its still a lie.

Bermas can be convincing, but he wasn't stating any sort of facts.

Try this one then.

Go to an Indy car race.

Get down to track level, about halfway down the straightaway. Stand as close to the fence as you can.

Feel the sound, power and SPEED of those cars roaring down the straightaway as they pass your position. Awesome.

When Flight 93 hit the ground, it was travelling at more than twice the speed of the fastest Indy car on the longest straightaway.

I don't care if the plane was doing Mach 3, it couldn't bury itself 25 feet ondergound and leave a crater about 10 feet deep.

Show us the 95% of the plane that was recovered and we will shut up about flight 93.

ok heres a video of a car going 267MPH as viewed from behind. imagine twice this speed hitting the ground. its towards the end of the video but i think you will get the picture. I know shameles plug i crew on such a car.

You're an expert on plane crashes?

Why should they show you ANY of the wreckage? You wouldn't understand it even if they did, unless you are an expert on plane crashes.

Do you never trust experts?

Do you always argue with your doctor?

No you wont. Experience tells you will find another way to "question" the evidence. Evidence only means something to you folk if it happens to support your position. That's why you cling to the conspiracy theory - the preponderance evidence is against you, but you cherry pick anyway.

Show your work supporting this statement, or retract it as being nothing more than your non-authoritative opinion.

whats the point of saying superman is "faster than a speeding bullet"

even if people havent SEEN a bullet they still have an idea that its pretty darn fast

im sure you have some sort of proof to back that up

whats the point? it wont convince the truthers, they look at all the evidence out there, dismiss it all as fake, then say theres no evidence

they couldnt pull their logic into a tighter circle if they tried

Oh? Are you making that statement based on your storehouse of knowledge gained as an onsite jet crash investigator? Or, is this just what you "feel"?

Reassembling a crashed jet is a very painstaking, time-consuming, labor-intensive undertaking. Expensive too. Such an activity proceeds when, all things considered, it is deemed a worthy venture. Despite the difficulty. To determine WHY an aircraft crashed when there is no other reliable methodology to draw upon.

But we KNOW why Flight 93 crashed. No mystery.

Basically Flight 93 hit the ground at an almost 90-degree angle at this speed...

Of all those shots, the apple at the beginning is most like the ground.

Pay attention to the size of the entry wound. Flight 93 could not penetrate the ground, so all of that expulsive force was contained in the ground.

Nice find, Smitty, that's pretty awesome. I think it was 267 MPH? Wow. And to think that Flight 93 was moving more than twice as fast when it impacted...

you are aware that the crash site was a landfill correct? Its not like the plane hit shale or as we call it in the industry "undisturbed earth" You do know that not all the dirt will be ejected from the crater correct? even if you shoot a 22 rifle into the ground the bullet is well below any crater that is formed. Unless your thinking.. well the wings should certainly prop it up over the hole as it hits the ground. Wizard Tell me your not that foolish.

Yes doctors are often wrong. Thats why people seek second opinions.

Why not show us the wreckage? They showed us other plane wreckage in other cases?

So, do you keep on arguing with doctors until you find one who says what you want to hear?

And in other plane crashes the reasons for the crash are unknown and need to be investigated. Finding voice recordings and witness testimony regarding telephone conversations from those on the plane gives a pretty good explanation of what happened.

Why recreate the plane from wreckage if it is not considered possible that a bomb or mechanical fault caused the crash?

You just want the plane recreated because you don't believe it was that plane.

Well, tough. Your personally incredulity does not outweigh other peoples professional and investigative integrity.

unlike other plane crashes this one was known to be a criminal act from the beginning, so it was under FBI juridiction from the beginning

I have seen bullets in flight! You do not shoot guns much!

You need to research stuff more!

The plane hit fast and got buried, like many Air Force accidents. Better research may help you understand what others are talking about.

But Bermas is so bad at research. Many accidents look like flight 93 when the hit at high speed. Sorry, but you are wrong.

I have seen other plane crashes. Flight 93 looks like a high speed crash, it is hard to tell if it was 40 or 90 degrees, either has the same effect in general!

Now you find the crashes. Good luck, with your research capabilities we may never see you (based on your statements here so far) again.

Could you find me a case where a plane buries itself underground like Flight 93 is supposed to have done?

"Bush ignored warning signs that the 9/11 attacks were coming from Islamic terrorists! Also, Bush performed the attacks! And the Islamic terrorists didn't attack! So he ignored the warnings about the attacks that didn't happen and that he actually performed himself!!!!!"
Troofers are a little racist. They claim Muslim extremists aren't capable of carrying out a plan like 9/11. According to them, they're too stupid, "low IQ" as Bermas said, so they need help from the big US of A...

The britsh tallboy couldn't break Mach 2 but it could penitrate 16 ft of concrete or at least 60 feet of soil. The plane wasn't designed for quite the same ground penetrating performance so only bits of it managed 25 feet.

Find a case where a plane crashed into the ground at 500+ mph and you will have your answer. Most plane crashes are at much lower speeds.

Also note that plane crashes are usually accidental, often due to technical failures or pilot error. When in such a situation, pilots try to avoid as much as they can the damage, they try to stear the plane until the last seconds.

Flight 93 voluntarily rammed into the ground at full speed, head on.
