Plane Hits Empire State Building

25

July 28 1945 – A US Army B-25 bomber crashes into the Empire State Building between the 78th and 79th floors. An engine plunges down an elevator shaft, sparking a fire in the basement. Eleven people in the building are killed, in addition to the three man bomber crew. Elevator operator Betty Lou Oliver survived a plunge of 75 stories inside an elevator, which still stands as the Guinness World Record for the longest survived elevator fall recorded.

    @kayon200 that’s not proof the government made these terrorist confess and the familes on the real planes were all killed off somewhere else while the us army sent in there planes to hit the buildings get ur facts strait

    @Christinaizi Thats easy…we have a very fast moving aluminum tube going very much so fast,and they had a lot of gas in it hitting a concrete and steel monolith.The fast moving aluminum tube was 3% the size the concrete and steel monolith(it was a big aluminum tube!),so then the concrete and steel monolith disintegrated in an hours time or so because the engine fans were spinning and chewed up all the steel and concrete turning it all into dust.Building 7?Probably a ricochet! It was all on TV!

    I swear 9/11 isnt and inside job. We have confessions of the terrorist and proof of the victims that have died and there families. Its ashaming that with all the people that died here such as innocent souls and we have confessions and history about previous attacks of al qaeda and you still think the government would do this..

    The Planes that hit the WTC site weighed more and where carring alot of fuel , A lot of Fuel !!! and where going faster than the B25 mitchell . The stucture of the Empire is old school steel and brick constuction . She is a very dense sturdy lady and not the sleek slim sisters that the WTC was .

    @xenomann442 firemen went up there.

    @tg72211 how were the fires controlled?

    Is it me, or do all of those 1920s-40s newsreel narrators sound the same?

    Pilot: Umm, I can’t really see anything..can I have some help here?
    Airport Terminal: Yeah, your..heading towards the Empire State Building. You should reach it in about 10 seconds.
    Pilot: Great thanks, now we can just turn and this’ll all be over. Oh look, there it is! Picture Time!

    This plane was so much smaller, and the fires were controlled. 9/11 was not an inside job.

  11. vewdew3 says:

    im not sure it was a plane that hit the WTC on 911, but if you do your research what does a JASSM look like from a helocopter over 10 miles away ???? 9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB ! ! ! Thank you Patriot Act, and “home grown terrorist” bullshit i say, just another way for the feds to fuck us all, ask your senator to ask about your states sovereignty and watch you get laughed @ ! ! !

    2:53
    Did you see that man out for an eveing stroll, on that plank on the seventy-ninth floor; with no harness?

    What were they thinking in thoes day, relying on your own wits like that !

    Cheers.

    im not saying 9/11 was an inside job or anything but serously some things about that horrible day are fucking strange… a little too odd for me

  15. hotabedguy says:

    @TheRealStories ……wowwwwwwwwww……….u are a sad sad individual

  16. hotabedguy says:

    @Christinaizi omg u people are FREAKS!!!! i sware ur on something

    @TheRealStories suuuuuuuuuuuuure

    @TheRealStories who cares, the old WTC 7 looked fugly anyways

  20. Railer505 says:

    (gotta hate 500 character limits) – People say that the harder materials that the Empire State Building was built with versus the design of the WTC indicates that if the Empire State Building (which was evacuated twice that day, btw) was targeted, it may not have collapsed.

  21. Railer505 says:

    I think whoever writes comments mentioning “WTC 7″ “Inside Job” and “9/11″ are trash. The energy of the impact from a B-25 Mitchell operated by an experienced pilot that was getting ready to land is dwarfed by many orders of magnitude Al-Shehhi’s piloting of a 767 jet at three times the speed. You dont have to be a physics major to know that kinetic energy is proportional to the square of velocity – in fact some say the Empire State Building could have survived if it was hit on 9/11 by a 767.

    lol the old 1900′s are so cute, they sound so weird and the camera’s make them look like they are moving fast

  23. breakinmedia says:

    @LegoMan8675309 Is not tiny The B25 was actually ten tons in weight and the twin towers were built and designed to withstand a Boeing 747(jumbo jet) the biggest plain at the time in the 1970′s, that had four jet engines. Jet fuel doesnt just melt reinforced steel either and take down the superstructure, it has a higher melting point.

    Don’t get me wrong here. I do know he planes are larger that the fuel amount is larger. there are a lot of possabilities.

    But I’ve reached a point where the focus on 9/11 is a distraction from the things that are happening since. Happening now.

    I think what needs to be focused on is who paid the bill for the 9/11 attacks. The rest, is secondary.
