Were cameras not capable of capturing the plane? HELP
Edited on Wed May-17-06 10:03 AM by Bushknew
Here’s the argument:

The video is about 1 frame per second and the plane was moving about 500 ft per second; therefore, the security cameras are incapable of capturing the image of the 757.

-----------------------------------------------------

Yet, this same security camera managed to capture the complete sequence of the
explosion undistorted.

They are basically saying that the rate of an explosion is less than 500 ft per second.

Someone please help me put this argument/excuse to pasture.

What is the rate of an explosion in ft per seconds?

1. Military dynamite is said to detonate at about 20000 feet per second
TNT is listed as exploding at about 23000 feet per second. So I guess the number you are looking for must be in that ball park.

3. Thank you, so …

It’s ridiculous to say that the camera was incapable of capturing the
image of the plane when the camera captured the explosion so well.

And of course, the explosion is at a faster speed than the plane was traveling.

There is no excuse for the plane to be distorted in those frames.

This is a common argument that the official conspiracy theorists give.

2. Whatever reason people give for it not being visible, it not being visible
does not prove that it was there.

Seriously, there is far more compelling material out there then this old and obvioulsy doctored sequence of images.

such as

Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime (71 minutes)
Produced by: John J. Albanese
Research Consultant: Nicholas Levis
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-8372366181300641663&q=Everybody%27s+Gotta+Learn+Sometime

Different then most other productions on the subject, this one does not focus on the (records of) physical evidence relating to the events on september 11, but rather on the organizations and people involved before, during and after the event took place.


Largely ignored by the mainstream media, many of the disturbing facts surrounding the attacks of 9/11 raise deeply ethical questions associated with issues of accountability, justice and censorship in America.

"Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime" may very well be the most compelling film yet outlining the disturbing and heavily censored facts associated with the worst terrorist attacks in American history. And while a grassroots movement worldwide continues to grow, and demand answers to the growing number of unanswered questions, the public outcry for accountability and transparency makes this film, perhaps, the most important film of 2006. "Everybody's Gotta Learn Sometime" is a free movie, produced by an independent artist, for educational and journalistic purposes only. Any proceeds derived from this premier event will go towards allaying the costs of presenting this film in the light of day, in New York City, in what is left of a free America in Tribeca.

We are making such material available in our efforts to advance the general publics understanding of political, human rights, and social justice issues, under the definition of 'fair use' as provided for in section 107 of the US Copyright Law. The material on this site is distributed without profit for research and educational purposes only.
