    It kind of reminds me of how Obutthead likes to drag out the damage as far as possible.

    The silo was just showing respect for Muslim countries. Watch a few European countries fall in similar fashion.

    Old terracotta block silo. Kickstand method for falling one. Did you see the guy tug on the rope?

    Sometimes they just fall over, but this was real cool that it made it all the way down with the top intact.

    It’s all Bush’s fault!!! He’s in collusion with the Zionist/Islamic/Tea Party conspiracy to destroy our grain silos and our way of life!!! WHAT DID HE KNOW AND WHEN DID HE KNOW IT????

    Obviously a controlled demolition. It’s impossible for a structure to fall like that naturally.

    And don’t forget a line like ” This is the first time gravity ever cracked blocks”

    Looks like what happens to an erection when Hilary or Mooshell walks into a room.

    (Sorry mom, I had to say it)

    But, but, WTC7 went down after being left to burn for 8 hours.
    That proves that BOOOOSH did it!
    I can imagine the meeting they had:
    “We will take down TWO 110 story buildings, but that just won’t be enough.
    If we take down World Trade Center 7, (that 99.99% of the world doesn’t even know exists, and is a glorified hotel) that will really make the American people back our desire to go to war and make the CEO’s at Hilburton (which Chaney no longer worked at) who are already rich, even richer.
    Yeah, that’s the ticket!

    The apex of the dome on top of the silo maintained the center of gravity due to the laws of physics; whereas the inertia of the uppermost section of the silo, along with the base material circumventing it didn’t disintegrate and held steadily with the acceleration of the collapsing structure for a smooth landing. Got it?

    They did a good job of bringing it down right where they wanted it to fall.
    The only thing missing is they should have invited some liberals for cookies and koolaid and had them sit at a table at ground zero.

    @Jorel, aka FOF–

    Reading your post is like reliving Physics 101. I thought those nightmare days were way behind me.

    make that, “forward acceleration of the collapsing structure…” Just to clarify a bit more.

    I don’t know much about science or physics, but I read a lot of science fiction during my teens.

    I’m with @Xavier. Clearly a cold fusion-powered tractor beam is the only possible explanation. And the guy pulling the rope is a lizard alien shape shifter. I tell them a mile away.

    I love my country as much as anyone here. I will fight for my country as much as anyone here.

    Call me a truther, and make fun of me for it.

    A silo falling slowwwwly is some sort of proof for you? Wake up.

    I’m on your side, don’t dismiss me. You need me.
