The Naudet brothers' film does not show clearly what hit the North tower, although features of the blurred images of the incoming object are consistent with the shape of a plane of some kind. The silhouette of Flight 17 is incorrectly positioned in the graphic relative to the damaged area of the North Tower. If it is slid down slightly, the tail, engines and wings fit the gaps in the building perfectly.
The disappearance of Flight 175 into the South Tower does, indeed, look odd until one realizes that:
1. the surface of the skyscraper was not solid steel and concrete but a mass of windows separated by steel supports - not the impenetrable surface that it looks far away;
2. the poor resolution of the video footage and the similar colours of the wings, fuselage and building create the illusion that the plane melts into the side of the skyscraper. The initial apparent lack of dark gaps where the plane enters is simply due to the poor resolution of the video footage, aggravated by the fact that the area of impact is in the shadows.
As with Flight 17, the silhouette of Flight 175 is wrongly positioned against the gaps in the South Tower so as to create the impression that the plane does not fit them. It does not take much re-arrangement to discover that its outline does, indeed, match the gaps.
In short, the evidence of this video clip does not provide any evidence that the images of the planes were fabricated. |
