The Progressive Collapse Challenge!

[maxpower1227]

Swing Dangler is like a Conspiracy Kook from Central Casting: Right down to the "kewl" picture of the CT's current hero Guy Fawkes from "V For Vendetta".

Exactly. I hate how trendy this crap has become. People need to learn to separate real life from their anarchist fantasies.

Also, I can't help but think that Challenge #1 is supposed to refer to WTC 7, though I never realized it underwent a top-down collapse.

 

[Pardalis]

That depends on what temperature the syrup is at.
A pancake WTC model makes more sense then most Twoofer models: At least when the experiment is over you have something good to eat.

I get the feeling this is just an excuse for SD to play in the kitchen .

I wonder if we pour maple syrup on the pancake towers, if it's going to affect the data?

I suppose it depends on whether the person doing the pouring has a contract with the maple syrup industry.

The designers of the Twin Towers were able to meet all 5 challenges using steel and concrete.

Wait... Did Swing Dangler just debunk himself?

Not really, They didn't do this part.

Build a structure with a vertical aspect ratio of at least 2 (twice as tall as it is wide) and induce it to undergo top-down total progressive collapse.

 

[Pardalis]

Swing, will this do?

 

[Architect]

I'd answer this challenge, but it sounds like a billable task and I'll need a completed RIBA/RIAS SFA complete will full schedule of chargable fees and some comfort that you have the necessary funds. Do let me know when this might be, otherwise I'll stick to designing real buildings for real clients.

 

[TellyKNeasuss]

Your structure can be made out of anything: straws, toothpicks, cards, dominoes, mud, vegetables, pancakes, etc.

I'll go out on a limb and predict that any structure constructed from pancakes will pancake.

 

[CurtC]

I trired this, but the structure I built kept having tall sections of perimeter columns, like 17 stories tall, still standing after the collapse. Is that good enough?

 

[Pardalis]

Hey, Swing, maybe you can get a couple of your truther friends together:

The Progressively Stupid 9/11 Truth Conclusion Challenge; Got Facts?

THE PROGRESSIVE COLLAPSE CHALLENGE
Your structure can be made out of anything: straws, toothpicks, cards, dominoes, mud, vegetables, pancakes, etc.

The designers of the Twin Towers were able to meet all 5 challenges using steel and concrete.

CHALLENGE #1:

Build a structure with a vertical aspect ratio of at least 2 (twice as tall as it is wide) and induce it to undergo top-down total progressive collapse.

CHALLENGE #2:

Build a structure with a square footprint and a vertical aspect ratio of at least 6.5 (6.5 times as high as it is wide), and induce it to undergo top-down total progressive collapse.

CHALLENGE #3:

Build a structure as required by CHALLENGE #2 which, in the process of collapsing, will throw pieces outward in all directions such that at least 80% of the mass of the materials ends up lying outside of the footprint, but their center of mass lies inside the footprint.

CHALLENGE #4:

Build a structure as required by CHALLENGE #2 which is capable of remaining intact in 100 MPH cross wind.

CHALLENGE #5:

Build a structure that meets the requirements of both CHALLENGES #3 and #4.
Thanks to Mr. Hoffman for this challenge.

CHALLENGE #1:

Find a truther with a real fact ratio of at least 2 (twice as many facts as false conclusion) and use those facts to support a conclusion from 9/11 truth before the conclusion undergos top-down total progressive collapse.

CHALLENGE #2:

Build a conclusion with a fact or facts and at least 6.5 reasons(6.5 times as real as it is stupid), and support the conclusion with the facts instead of hearsay which now leads to top-down total progressive collapse.

CHALLENGE #3:

Build a conclusion as required by CHALLENGE #2 which, in the process of collapsing, will not throw lies outward in all directions such that at least 80% of the mass of the bs ends up lying outside of the conclusion, but their center of madness lies inside the footprint of lies and distortion of reality.

CHALLENGE #4:

Build a conclusion as required by CHALLENGE #2 which is capable of remaining intact in 100 attacks of real facts.

CHALLENGE #5:

Build a conclusion that meets the requirements of both CHALLENGES #3 and #4.

Thanks to Mr. Hoffman for collecting so much data on 9/11 that his supply of false information is so hidden, idiots in the truth movement ignore the facts and use just the BS. This is a Darwin type filter. It shows us the true idiots of the truth movement who think they are using logic, but only have BS. Loads of bs and stupid questions.

The big Challenge is for a truther to use their brains or find a fact. Why not try both?

I don't know if it'd affect the data or not, but it will make them taste delicious!

 

[Arus808]

I'd do it.

Just give me unlimited funding (that's 1 followed by 10000000000000000000000 zeros at least). You see, I have to buy the plot of land in the middle of nowhere that is equal to the size of the entire WTC complex; build all 7 wtc buildings, and fill them with office equipment and carpeting, light fixtures, and replicate building 7 with the diesel tanks. Then I will need to purchase 2 planes, fully furnished and with test bodies (dead pigs can serve to simulate humans), and then fly them into the two Replicated twin towers.

And of course, we need to rebuild at least 20 times so that we can get a good test result each time we do replicate the event on 9/11/2001.


Gee, i wonder why real investigators and scientists and engineers use computer models these days.

The lead pancake engineer said that pancakes were designed to withstand the impact of maple syrup. But that is under the assumption that the maple syrup would be poured gently by someone leisurely eating breakfast.

Shill! Everyone knows the pancake collapse was started by generous use of tasty, melty butter! Why weren't the pancake components tested for dairy residue before they were hastily shipped to IHOP???

Swingy here has just graduated from the Spooked911 School of Engineering, I see.

 

[TellyKNeasuss]

Larry Silverstein said that the maple syrup was so thick that the lid for the bottle was stuck on, so he told the waitress to "pull it".

 

[GT/CS]

Don't forget that the stack needs to withstand a 100mph wind!

Who is the poster that likes to blow things up all the time? Maybe this tower will be a good challenge for him.

RE #3) Provide evidence that this is an accurate representation of either, or both, of the Twin Towers and not just a strawman

It can be a strawman. Or at least a straw tower.
