Hilarious Blacksmith Uses Science To Shut Down Insane ‘Fire Can’t Melt Steel’ 9/11 Truthers

Give this man a medal. In just two minutes, blacksmith Trenton Tye of Purgatory Ironworks uses science to hilarious effect to mock 9/11 truthers who insist the 2001 terrorist attacks were a conspiracy. And why are these nutters convinced the whole thing was an inside job? Because fire can’t melt steel (Seriously, read through that entire 9/11 conspiracy theory thread. It is amazing.)

Tye, a professional metalworker based in Georgia, has had enough. He filmed the following video to prove to science-hating 9/11 conspiracy mongers once and for all that structural steel will absolutely lose its structural integrity if it gets too hot:

If he put some termites in his forge, that would be cruel.

I find that 9/11 Truthers are much more likely to be moonwalk deniers and even holocaust deniers.

I work with one. I just smile and nod. Can't convince them otherwise. Thinks contrails are chemtrails, absolutely certain we didn't go to the moon, etc...

Unfortunately, a person of no practical experience or scientific training, like Rosie O'Donnell, has the ability to spout her belief like it was fact. Thus her idiot but unchallenged belief gets aired multiple times (2009), to wit;
"I do believe that it's the first time in history that fire has ever melted steel. I do believe that it defies physics that World Trade Center tower 7 - building 7, which collapsed in on itself - it is impossible for a building to fall the way it fell without explosives being involved. World Trade Center 7. World Trade [Center] 1 and 2 got hit by planes - 7, miraculously, the first time in history, steel was melted by fire. It is physically impossible."

Here we have a person with active working experience demonstrating that the basis of the belief, that steel needs to have melted for the building (World Trade Center Tower 7) to fall, is demonstrably false. Yet this short 2 minute demonstration will not get seen anywhere close to the number who watched that fatuous woman spew idiocy!

You forgot to close the loop: the HARRP array has a nasty side effect. It causes disruptions in space-time, ripples that actually go backwards in time, and one of these disruptions caused the Tunguska event.

There. All nice and neat. And if you doubt it, you’re one of THEM.

You Have Shear, big massive object hitting the steel tooth picks that hold it up, cutting through steel core that really holds it up.

Then you have a lot of heat that causes the tooth picks to deform and collapse. (See ASME for details)

Then you have commies................

A bunch of Truthers were addressing a crowd of onlookers over by the WTC path station in Manhattan sometime last month and I walked up, recognized them for what they were almost instantly, and called out WOW, REAL LIVE TRUTHERS, laughed loudly for all to hear, and walked away with them calling out after me, thats right, we know the truth and you should care about the truth.

It is embarrassing that Rosie and her liberal, brain-dead ilk are members of the human race.

[Old Sarge]

What makes you think YOU aren’t one of Them, to begin with?

Is it a bluff? Or a double bluff? Or even a TRIPLE bluff?

[FourtySeven]

Try this one on for size: Everything I say, is a lie.

If it worked on Mudd’s women, it should work on Them.

[Old Sarge]

Did you leave them a box of toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo and mouthwash?

[SamAdams76]

Because your grill doesn't get much hotter than 600-650 degrees. Maybe 700 at the very max. Any hotter and you are going to have problems but grills are designed to not get hotter than that.

I would say the same applies to kitchen stoves.

[Hot Tabasco]

Every time I hear some idiot truther claim the govt. brought down the WTC, I ask them if they know anything about how much explosives are required and how long would it take to place the necessary charges in the specific areas.

Here's a great explanation on what it took to implode the J.L. Hudson building in Detroit back in 1998.....

LOL!!! I know the type. Grew up with one who thought every unusual light in the night sky from high-flying aircraft was a U.F.O. He's still like that to a more "matured" degree.

Yeah. Capricorn One was a documentary for them, not a sci-fi flick...

[Old Sarge]

How many breaths do they take before they call you racist and fling poo at you?

[Old Sarge]

Especially if OJ was involved: "If the spacesuit don't fit, you must acquit..."

“Boom, get a job!”

LOL!! Love this guy!!

I've read quite a bit of your comments, and -- until this one -- thought you had a reasonably well-working head on your shoulders.

Have you ever heated a piece of steel?

Have you ever seen an oxy-acetylene torch in use -- or used one? Do you know what happens before the oxygen is turned on? Do you comprehend the chemistry of what happens afterward?

Your comment about LOX on charcoal is one of the most ludicrous non sequiturs I have heard -- since the last time 0b0z0 opened his yap...

~~~~~~~~

WTF did you think you were trying to say? Whatever it was, it appears that re-visiting 8th grade general science would do you a lot of good...

Also,studying the WTC floor connector configuration and then watching this

-- until you understand it -- would benefit most posters on this thread...
