Dawn,
Have you spoken with your son-in-law's brother about this? I would
be very interested in knowing exactly where he was standing when
he made these observations, with specific times and locations. The
belief that someone saw something live when they actually viewed
it on television can be very strong. Ronald Reagan famously thought
he had actually served in the US military when he had actually only
made some promotional appearances on film. But he believed them!
I am not saying the same is true of your brother, but since you seem
to have done no research at all on this matter--by reviewing what I
have sent above--it troubles me that you would take for granted what
you seem to have been told. I presume he did not SEE Flight 11 hit
the North Tower. Therefore, what he claims to have SEEN is Flight 175
hit the South. But the plane in the video is flying at an impossible speed,
its entry into the building violated Newton's laws of motion, and more.
Do you appreciate that, if this plane passed through its own length into
the building in the same number of frames that it passes through its own
length in air, that means the building posed no more resistance to its path
of flight than air? It should have crumbled like an empty beer-can against
a brick wall (or a car crashing into a tree at high speed). If you doubt it,
check out the first fifteen frames of the Powerpoint on the Scholars web
site here: http://twilightpines.com/JF-BuenosAires/...Aires.html
