Modeling the WTC with construction paper

Ohh, I can hardly wait until he makes a model car from construction paper, drop it off a 3 foot wall, to prove that cars wouldn't be crushed or particularly damaged by falling from a 300 ft tall cliff.
 
I'm sure that we saw this madness back in December, didn't we?
 

No words...

So.... the WTC was attacked by a giant bucket of sand?

So clear to me now. So shockingly clear.
 
Oh, he even explained why he made the test:

On this website, I will first try to explain why I am bothered by the way this collapse took place. Please note that I am not a structural engineer and I don’t pretend to be one. Therefore, the site won’t be a scientific and elaborate overview of the technical matters of the collapse. It just describes why my mind fails to connect with the theory that the Official 911 Report (2.3 Mb) puts forward. This site is more about perception than science. Please keep that in mind all the time. It’s more about explaining why my mind disconnects with the official explanations given than it should be considered a certain kind of truth.
ETA:

Please note that this website is in no way endorsed to ridicule the events of 911

Yeah, we did see it before: it was the "audience" in the park that I remembered best.

Surely the guy is taking the mickey, eh?
 
Let's hope he at least takes it outside before he sets it on fire!

Or not... :rolleyes: Darwin anyone?

Everytime I see one of these, it makes me want to build a model out of materials comperable to the real one, just to show these... uninformed people... how far off the mark they are with their paper and chicken wire creations.

Though this one is even more off the mark than the chicken wire, as at least the chicken wire one had roughly the same design as the towers, while this is just all fabrication.

I bet with a little work and research a model could be made that would closely replicate the tensile stregth and brittleness of the actual construction materials.

Any structural engineers out there have any ideas on materials that would work? I was thinking pressed sugar for concrete, though I really have no idea if that's acceptable, and have no idea what one would use for the different steel sections...
 
I saw that before. Was that in the rear foyer of his house? I guess he couldn't build it in the living room because there was a huge pile of dirt in it.

I cant for the life of me picture a grown man doing that. thats got to be a teen with too much time on his hands. I thought the tape X bracing to simulate a shear wall was a nice touch. Was that an after thought when the cat brushed against it and knocked it down a dozen times?
 
He's one of our regular commenters. When I first saw this in July I was a little cautious, thinking it might be a gag, but he's serious.
 
Standing at a whopping 10 stories, it certainly replicates the 110 story WTC towers exactly, doesn't it?

Oh wait, this is just [rule8]ing retarded. Woooooo!
 
What was that even supposed to prove? Assuming that the paper tower was in any way an acceptable model of the WTC, what was the bucket a model of?

I guess, if anything, he disproved that the towers were really taken out by an asteroid. An asteroid in a bucket.

I've often wondered...well...not often...well, actually, never until just now but anyway, I wonder if glass would be a good substitute.

Well, you know 28K proved if it was an asteroid, it would have driven them into the ground!

The grasp of physics and engineering is astounding, is it not?

I guess 28th Kingdom would be proud.
 
Well, he certainly disproves this grand theory:

At the sake of sounding like a genius...you could hammer an asteroid from outer space straight down on one of the (undamaged) twin towers...and it would not cause a chain reaction of floor failures from top to bottom. If anything, it would drill the vertical columns into the ground like a nail.

ETA: late ...
 
Well, he certainly disproves this grand theory:

No, don't you see? It proves his crazy genius theory! The model didn't exhibit a chain collapse, it just kind of slumped over.

Don't you get it? If an asteroid hit the towers, they would have kind of slumped over and possibly collapsed in an "S" pattern. Or something something I don't know.
