The New American Physics - Nobel Prize ?

According to popular myth aluminium planes can cut thru whole layers of solid vertical steel in skyscrapers and can emerge with their still largely fuselage intact on the roof of other buildings. The tank busting quality of thin American aluminium planes is amazing ! Wow those wings are like diamond cutters of specially designed safety steel/ What complete morons !

Nearly as good as American jet fuel (modified kerosene) the new wonder weapon that can melt steel reinforcements with a huge fireball outside buildings for good effect. Wow - the laws of physics are'nt the same in the USA.

TV has made idiots of millions. Planes vanished in thin air. Fake plane videos. Let's give couch potatoes a Nobel Prize for Physics. God help us. Right ?

Answers:
On the principle of aluminium cutting steel. of course it can, given the speed of the impact and the concentration of force on one small area. How do you think karate experts chop through wood and concrete?

Kerosene when vapourised will burn in air at an extremely high temperature - easily enough to melt steel (most of which didn't melt but was merelt buckled and twisted, largely by the weight of the building collapsing on it). As a demonstration, fuel-air explosives (FAE) as used in the Gulf Wars relies on the vapourisation of fuel such as kerosene into what is called an aerosol before igniting it. This causes such an intense heat and explosion that it is sometimes know as "the poor man's atom bomb" and kills everyone within a 3-4 mile radius with just 15,000 pounds of fuel. There was much more fuel on these aircraft and the conditions of sudden impact could easily have created conditions capable of melting steel.

I suggest that you educate yourself before trying to "educate" others
Huh? Where's your evidence?
You should get a Nobel prize for ignorance.
