Stephen Jones, PhD (Physics Professor Emeritus): [on nano-thermite]First of all, the iron oxide grains are *uniform* and approximately 100 nm across. That's very tiny, much smaller than a human hair.

[first lines] David Hooper: Hi, my name is David Hooper. I wanna tell you a story that began with an innocent question, back when I was just a regular guy. I had been a carreer entrepreneur with some successes and some failures. In other words, by this point in my life, I had been humbled.

Movie: The Anatomy of a Great Deception

Movie: The Anatomy of a Great Deception
Frank DiMartini (WTC Construction Manager): The building was designed to have a fully loaded 707 crash into it. That was the largest plane at the time.

The jet plane is just a pencil puncturing that screen netting.

Movie: The Anatomy of a Great Deception
Leslie Robertson (WTC Structural Engineer): We designed the buildings to take the impact of a Boeing 707 hitting the building at any location.

Movie: The Anatomy of a Great Deception
Charlie Thornton (WTC Structural Engineer): The largest aircraft flying today, at least commercially, the 747, fully loaded, is on the order of 300 tons.

They could not have come down without being assisted in some manner.

Movie: The Anatomy of a Great Deception
David Hooper: If it was a controlled demolition, it would explain how much of these buildings were reduced to ash. It would explain why the towers fell after burning for only an hour or so. It would explain why they imploded instead of tearing apart. It would explain why they all fell at close to free fall speed. It sure looked like a controlled demolition... in retrospect.

[last lines] David Hooper: So, if you want to forget everything you've seen, go back to your regular life. Soon you'll forget about all of this. Our defense mechanisms work that way. But if you decide to jump down the rabbit hole, my advice is to seek your own answers. Do your own research. And don't let anyone tell you what to believe. About anything. Because until you see it for yourself, it'll be hard to ever understand why it's so important to know it exists.

David Hooper: [from deleted scene]Some pre-collapse explosions weren't just heard, but were seen. This clip is obviously from after the plane-impact but before the collapse.
