I think George Bush is behind the collapse of the burning bridge.
Obviously he just wanted to prove to Rosie Odonnell that steel and concrete can be destroyed by intense heat.
(He did it in San Francisco because he hates gays(Rosie) too.)
:lol:

I’m waiting for someone to put together a flash video as conclusive proof, but it does make sense. And now that I’ve read it on the internet it must be true.

Think he’ll blame it on Iran or North Korea?

The explosion was actually caused by mexican aliens. Time to build another fence.

This does show that fuel burns at high temperatures enough to warp metal and concrete. Kinda proves alot of the “We did 9/11 our selves” theories wrong.

rgr.
IIRC, one thing they kept quoting in those assinine theories is that jet fuel doesnt burn hot enough to melt structural steel. Metal does not need to melt to fail, extreme heat will do it.
And anybody who believes that theory is far too dumb to understand this…

in the news yesterday they said “Failure of the steel was caused by the fire reaching temperatures as high as 650°F” :bloated:

?
Structural steel will fail at that temp, im pretty sure…
Jet fuel can burn as high as 1000\* F, and the critical temperature for structural steel is 540\* F
edit again: Although, in buildings, structural steel elements have to be covered with some kind of endothermic building material, such as concrete and gypsum wallboard. These materials do not make a building fireproof however. They will degrade after a specified time. Their function is to allow enough time to allow the building to be evacuated before they fail.
Bridges however do not have fireproofing (at least no bridge that I have ever seen)

no, structural wont unless its cycled many times.
Point being…a candle flame produces temperatures of 650°F … i’m willing to be this fire was well over 1000°F

Its pretty hard to ignite jetfuel, like JP-8 or Jet A-1 it really needs to be pressurized to ignite…

A quick read of that article…
> Color tells us about the temperature of a candle flame. The outer core of the candle flame is light blue – 1670 K (1400 °C). That is the hottest part of the flame.
i was rather shocked about this temp too… I thought it was roughly 650F too… I’m pretty sure since gasoline is an accelerant (may not be the right word) gasoline burns even hotter than a candle would…

what i mentioned was the start of a candles “range”… 650°F+ is what a basic fueled luminus flame is capable of burning at. I know they burn hotter, but that is the general starting point.

So how hot would a flame be (rough starting point) of a fart that is lighted?
