planes crumble, they don't do cartoon cutouts.
Bullets crumble and deform too yet they make nice 'cartoon-cutout' holes. Mass, velocity, inertia and momentum matter in physics. As I said earlier, the truth is complicated because the physics and countless variables involved don't make for a nice, simple explanation. Everyone wants a simple answer but that's just not possible.
Yeah, I'm open to whatever the truth is. About anything.
I do try to follow the maxim "When you have eliminated the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."
One of the first things that bothered me was several pilots saying that the govt. posted speeds of planes, that close to ground-level, they would have broken apart.
Etc. One of these days, hopefully...
