Reality Refutes A 9/11 Conspiracy Claim

One of the core claims of the 9/11 "Truth" movement is that the explosion and flames resulting from the ignition of jet fuel carried by the airplanes that impacted the twin towers could not generate enough heat to fatally weaken the buildings' steel structure. But this is just what happened Sunday when a tanker carrying 8,600 gallons of gasoline crashed and exploded.

Two connector ramps of the Bay Bridge MacArthur Maze, located near Emeryville, collapsed Sunday morning after an explosion and fire.

Heat from the fire, which reached temperatures estimated at up to 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit, caused the metal bolts and girders on the highway connector ramp above to melt. The overpass then gave way and collapsed.
