    The best of the lot.

    Simply put, this is the best of the Loose Change permutations so far. All the facts are laid out in clear fashion, and the music soundtrack is thankfully more subdued and muted this time around. The narration by actor Daniel Sunjata is an improvement over director Dylan Avery's sober but somewhat weak turn as narrator of the last Loose Change entry.

    All in all an impressive, polished presentation in terms of the look and sound, but, more importantly, it gets most of the important facts out into the forefront.

    Foremost amongst these facts are the findings of physicist Steven Jones - PhD, who discovered, along with his team of scientists, explosive/incendiary material in all of the samples of 9/11 dust they have acquired (over 20, from different sources, independent from one another) and how they have proved that this material is a form of highly powerful Nano Thermite which ignites at temperatures high enough to cut through steel. This material is not Sulfur as one commentator erroneously stated. It exists in the form of small chips - gray on one side, red on the other - that ignite at around 430 degrees centigrade, and produce tiny spheres of molten iron of the exact same chemical composition as molten iron produced as a by-product of ignited Thermite. Through a process termed "X-Ray Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy" it has been proved by Jones and his colleagues that the microscopic particles comprising the bulk of the red part of the chips are nano particles (1/1 thousandth the diameter of a human hair) of iron oxide and elemental aluminum - the exact key ingredients of Super Thermite, or Nano Thermite. This is incendiary material that can be made to be explosive when other elements such as Silicon and Carbon are added, and both of those elements were also identified by Jones, et al as being intimately mixed in with the Iron Oxide and Aluminum. Their findings have yet to be adequately refuted by any official investigative body. In fact, none of the four official investigations, including the last and "exhaustively carried out" investigation by the National Institute of Standards and Technology even bothered to look at the dust, nor did they even consider any hypothesis other than collapse due to damage and fire, even though it is required by law to test for explosives in any fire investigation. Some investigation.

    So we have a material found in all the dust samples that consists of the exact ingredients of a known material that can cut through steel, that ignites at 430 degrees centigrade, and that produces molten iron spheres as a by-product just like Thermite, but it is not Thermite? If this were not enough, we have pools of molten metal at the bases of all three buildings six weeks after their collapse, and video showing molten metal literally pouring out of the south tower beginning five minutes before it's collapse, and the molten metal looks absolutely and positively like the molten iron produced by Thermite (go to YouTube and type in "Thermite 9/11" to see for yourself). A fact totally ignored by defenders of the official story is that the heat produced by the fires did not exceed 800 degrees Fahrenheit, a temperature far too low to even weaken steel let alone melt it. It seems that they never let the facts get in the way of their faith in the official dogma.

    Then there is the testimony of Housing Authority official Barry Jennings, who along with another man by the name of Michael Hess were witnesses to massive explosions inside WTC Seven before either tower had collapsed. As if things were not suspicious enough, Jennings died suddenly last August, two days before the final NIST report on the collapse of WTC Seven was released (NIST said it was due solely to fire - yeah, sure) - it goes on and on and on and on.

    Attacks on this documentary, and the whole 9/11 "truth movement" in general, are becoming increasingly ineffectual, indeed embarrassing in light of what we now know.

    Dylan Avery and everyone involved in this production are on the right side of history and will be vindicated, in due time, along with all other unbelievers of the official story. Good for them.

    Fails to show toppled street lamps at pentagon

    This is not very fair and balanced for at least 2 reasons:

    1. It doesn't show the numerous street lamp posts lying flat on the ground in the path of the pentagon bound plane

    2. It doesn't cover the fact that steel and other metals weaken with temperature, much like how a rod iron or steel blade can be shaped with heat...and so metal floor joists and supporting angle brackets logically would bend and bow in the high temps until a catastrophic point of no return.

    3. It doesn't show any eyewitness testimony that would support opposing beliefs of what occurred.

    But I do agree that false flags are real and the government does lie, deceive, propagandize and manipulate the people far too often, as was again recently proven by the covid masks, experimental jabs and natural immunity debacle.

    Stay with the facts

    I've seen all the versions of the "Loose Change 9/11" and this is absolutely the best one. It has the most facts, since more facts have been discovered since the first edition was released. The first edition of "Loose Change 9/11" was actually what made me interested about 9/11 and made me dig into other literature about it. I've seen dozens of videos and read a lot of different articles/debates about it and there is (of course) a lot of speculation and guessing involved. However some facts remain: - Scientists have discovered nano-thermite in the dust from the worldtrade collapses. - 3 highrise, steel-reinforced skyscrapers collapsed into their own footprint at near-freefall speed.

    This should be more than enough to argue for a real (truthful) investigation, since these facts can not be explained by the pancake theory.

    Then on top of these facts, there are tons of other issues that are just insane coincidences, eyewitneses and other questions that are not answered by the official explanation.

    And remember, you can't argue against the facts with questions like: "Yes, but thousands of people should have been involved and so many people can't keep a secret", since this is also just speculation.

    Biggest losers ever.

    If you're looking for lies and disinformation, this is where to find it. These goofs have been disapproved time in and time out. However, the arrogance and Jason and Dylan are so thick it makes impressionable young dorks interested.

    This is how idiotaracy begins.

    facts

    Good documentary with facts and real testimonies. Not just some random person that no one knows, but scientists with proved investigations. Watch it and judge for yourself. From real news footage, New York City citizens' photos and video to exhaustive investigation on debris and insight to misleading and incomplete government investigation. Details, investigations and coverage on similar accidents, such as airplane crashes, building fires, use of Thermite and comparisons and how things do or do not match Many people will not believe the facts even when they're shown and explained to them, but that is just because they choose not to believe. So I'd say watch it if you're still intrigued about this mess.

    Did you know

    • Trivia
      The argument that the steel just needed to be softened enough to collapse has been put forward, but has not mentioned what happened to building 7, that did not get hit at all, and while it was stated that 7 was hit by falling debris, this would have meant that the debris completely by passed building 6 and then heated the steel structure of 7 enough to collapse.

      No logical and technical explanation has been put forward for this.
    • Goofs
      It is mentioned that Smedley Butler was an Army Veteran. However, Spedley Butler was a U.S. Marine Veteran and never joined the Army.
