Car disentigrates against bridge

You wont believe your eyes


maybe that plane did disintegrate at Pentagon

Damn those concrete pillars where smoking, quick abandon that bridge before it collapses on it self.

No I can make that jump in GTA4 .
But it broke apart in 4 pieces it did not disintegrate.
Glad that he is ok

Never underestimate the power of speed versus inmoveable object, folks.

That is an amazing clip.

Yes what was even more amazing is the guy driving the car lived....saw a documentary on it....now not sure this is going to be a good 911 discussion as the differences will clearly get pointed out....but end of the day an amazing crash.

Yeah amazing crash! Can't believe he lived! One lucky son of a gun!

Comparing this to tons of steel (planes engines) is not quite the same though is it? It still wouldn't explain why there wasn't 3 holes in the wall. If anything I would expect 2 holes spread further apart. The cockpit and fuselage I can see disintegrating, but not those engines! Not a chance!

I can only imagine someone driving by seeing that happen being like WTF?
or in their rear view, some of the people ahead hit their brakes.

I'm amazed other people didn't wreck when it happened. That one car swerved to avoid the flying debris...fast reflexes!

If I'd seen that, I'd need to clean my car seat...

Dukes of Hazzard anyone?
YeeeeHaw.
That was one lucky person to have survived.

No, here is how physics of colliding objects works.

No matter the velocity of either object, when two objects collide the force on each object is the same, equal and opposite reaction.

So the car hit the bridge and was destroyed, but the bridge was not. That means the bridge could receive the same force as the car but due to its mass, and other conditions, was not damaged by that force. If the bridge could not take the force, and was damaged, then the damage to the car would have been less. One object absorbs the force of the other, force always comes in pairs, equal and opposite pairs.

The plane that hit the pentagon did damage what it hit, it made a hole and supposedly flew right through, so the plane would not be destroyed by that impact. It would be damaged, but it had the mass and force to not be destroyed by the wall. The plane could not have been destroyed, after it went through the hole as there was nothing else it could have hit inside the pentagon. It would have simply come to a stop before it even went completely through the hole it made.

Not only that you have to consider the wings and engines. If the nose could punch through then the much heavier engines should also have punched through. That is a physical contradiction.

Excellent explanation! Thanks for injecting some basic science into what has become a subject full of knee-jerk reactionaries and people desperate to believe the official story.

Very lucky guy. This accident happened almost a year ago and has been on internet forever. It is amazing that he wasn't killed.

If look close didnt hit the bridge .....

Struck centre divider aka "JERSEY BARRIER"

Seen numerous times cleaning up after truck strikes divider - truck gets trashed. Top of barrier often damaged

The point is.....?

Is this one of those delusional "plane cant penetrate steel" nonsense.....?

I bet the guy driving that was fine a few minor scrapes and bruises

Where is the evidence a plane can penetrate steel? If it was steel foil then yes, but massive 4" thick box columns?

But no, the OP was talking about the pentagon, if you missed that.

That wasn't an accident site. It was a debris field.

This is what happens when aircraft (which was moving at 3 X the speed of that car) strikes masonry object

B25 into Empire State Building - Exterior shell is 8 inches of solid limestone backed up by brick wall

www.youtube.com...

Left hole some 18 x 24 feet

B 25 also weighed about 20,000 lbs - about 7 times the car

Forces are over 60 times that of car into barrier

Proves if accelerate object enough the destructive energy released is tremendous

By the way Pentagon E Ring is made of same materials........

Oddly enough there's more pieces of the car left than there was of an airliner several hundred times the size of the car.
What's your point exactly?

You mean parts like these ?


















Seems to be quite a bit.....

This is what was recovered from OUTSIDE the building

More was found at Fresh Kills from inside the building - that which survived collapse and fires....

Maybe I'm missing something. Aren't these photos from the WTC? I thought this thread was about the Pentagon.
