The 9/11 Forum

The video looks as if it's not WTC 1 (or 2)... Look at the close in shot.

Notice the vertical spacing and size of the windows. The spandrels should be 52" tall and the sash 92" tall. Since when were there operable sash?

Notice the apparent lack of projection of the columns beyond the window - the facade looks too flat.

This appears to be the west facade based on the direction of the smoke streams to the south.

Any comments?

Aspect ratio.

WTC1 west side early. One of my first threads on this forum was of the darkened straight line that burns across the west face (and north face) over a period of about 10 minutes. The lower fire is the 97th floor.

So somehow the horizontal axis is stretched and it distorts the aspect ratio?

Yep. (And viewing angle)

How to properly embed Youtube videos? I see there is a button, how is this supposed to integrate with Youtube embedded object html? Or should the BBCode encapsulate the hyperlink, and the forum logic will do the rest? I tried both, and failed both times. Can't find this covered in the help page either. I guess I could Google it, but I'd rather ask here, since I can avoid trial and error episodes that way.

However...

Code: Select all
