9/11: Explosive Evidence - Experts Speak Out

9/11: Explosive Evidence - Experts Speak Out (2012)

*** (out of 4)

This documentary originally aired on PBS and apparently became a hit among certain groups, which led to it growing a rather strong cult following. The documentary basically takes a bunch of experts to discuss how it was impossible for the Twin Towers to fall on their attack on 9/11. We're given the "evidence" that the government said caused the two towers (and Building 7) to collapse and then we here from countless high-rise architects and other experts. We learn the scientific reason as to why it was impossible for the buildings to fall in the way that they did and we see their evidence as to why they believe there were explosives inside the building.

Some people look at conspiracy theories as loony nuts who are constantly not believing what they're told and coming up with wild stories. Others see conspiracy theories as people willing to look further to what we're told and discover things that just don't make sense. There are so many awful 9/11 documentaries out there that it's hard to go through a dozen of them and find one good one. Theories are all over the place but I must say that this one here is actually one of the better made ones. I say that because they offer up some pretty good questions as to the official report and show some nice evidence as to why things just don't make sense. As someone who watched the events live that day, I think the most striking stuff is the actual news footage from that day where people discuss hearing explosions.

The documentary is certainly one-sided and there's no doubt that it was produced to push this side. Personally speaking, I would have preferred some "experts" from the "other side" to offer up their reasonings for thinking that the towers could have fallen the way they did. I think if both sides would have had a voice here then it would have been much better. As is, we pretty much get the conspiracy side here and now we have to search out another video from the other side to hear their explanations. Either way, this is still worth viewing for those who enjoy documentaries on the subject.

I have heard challenges to the official 9/11 story for several years, but never had I seen the WTC evidence compiled and detailed so professionally until I watched Experts Speak Out. Although it's a low-budget, independent film, the cinematic quality is at par with Hollywood documentaries... But most importantly, the testimony from the dozens of experts, combined with the video and photographic evidence, is impossible to ignore. Anyone who thinks that asking questions about 9/11 is "unpatriotic" or "loony" will be transformed after seeing this film.

Not only does the film go in depth into the many scientific flaws surrounding the official 9/11 account -- especially regarding the collapse of WTC building 7 -- it also features top psychologists and therapists who explain why this chilling information is so difficult for some people to accept. That gives this documentary immense value to those who are becoming aware of the issue for the first time, as well as those who desire to educate others on this subject.

Plot

Persuasive viewpoints of over 1,700 architects and engineers who believe the unsettling theory that scientific forensic evidence points to explosive controlled demolition of the three World Trade Center skyscrapers on September 11, 2001.

Cast

Made by Richard Gage a man who has made multiple 9/11 documentaries, as if one wasn't enough.

Verdict

Let me be absolutely clear on something, this is NOT a documentary this is one of many conspiracy faux documentaries that has been appearing for the last couple of decades.

It claims it provides experts, but Google them and you'll find maybe they're not exactly reliable. This is one of many documentaries about 9/11 than comes from a different angle, a twisted angle, a paranoid angle seeing things that just aren't there and filling in the narrative themselves.

Watch a real documentary, this simply isn't.

Rants

Something that I genuinely believe is tearing this world apart is this conspiracy thing, it's absolutely rife. People don't believe anything they see or hear if it doesn't fit their own personal agenda. They don't need evidence, they shun facts, they dismiss science they demonize healthcare experts and they instead believe irrational ravings of Youtubers or not entirely right in the head "Influencers" and "Commentators".

Think its harmless? My ex went down that rabbit hole, flat earth, anti-vax, chemtrails, deep state/illuminati, weirdly all happened around the same time she went from a decent person to a uniform bigot hating anyone different from her. There's a reason conspiracy theorists always tend to be on the same political side.

Breakdown

Speculation not facts Paranoia not documentary Broken minds not expertise.

Very weak theory, the documentary starts with people saying that the evidence have been destroyed to hide the truth. That's groundwork for conspiracy, you can not prove the truth, therefore you can not prove our truth is wrong ... One of the experts is known to be part of the AIDS denialism movement. I am surprised Alex Jones wasn't part of the experts ...

As someone who does believe we are sometimes misled by powerful people I was interested to see this film. I have worked as an architect, though never on high rises. I studied the WTC towers in college for both their design and (at the time) innovative structure. I had extensively read trade publications about 9/11 and the 3 building collapses and thought another perspective was a good thing.

Unfortunately this movie did not use much good evidence in its analysis. It seems to have started from conclusions and worked backwards. Most all the arguments made for how we were misled about the cause of collapse did not ring true to me as a building professional.

Ultimately, I was so disappointed in the quality of the analysis that I researched the experts in the film. I could find no credentials that make anyone quoted in the film particularly credible. My view is that this film is actually MORE inaccurate than anything the main stream media has said about the WTC collapse.
