[koop171]

something else to think about i just don't get a banner for my thread lol

I would think that even if it was a concrete building the tank would fall through eventually especially if placed in a way were its the least supported.

Nope, not a chance. Maybe if a meteor happened to land in the tank, otherwise no way no how. It's part of building code anywhere. It's re-inforced with rebar and you would need extreme heat to make that fail. Sort of the effect that caused the buildings structure to fail in the World Trade Center in New York. Extreme heat of the burning jet fuel weakened the metal skeleton of the building alowing it to stretch, bend, the ultimately break and fail.

i DONT AGREE with that.
its a touchy sumbject with the WTC.
and fyi jet fuel doesnt get hot enough to do that to steel.
explosives were a key, you should read the real 9/11 report.
and as for a tank going throuh a floor...i could see it happening.
and old crappy apparentment build and a crazy tall tank,it could be done imo.

or rather, until the myth is busted

well in that case you may be correct. Either way it will make great TV

this is kind of stupid

This guy would've been better off buying one of those 4' tall 15' round walmart swimming pools. They are much cheaper and come with a ladder to climb into the pool(handy for retrieving pennys).

[koop171]

so lets say this is not the greatest myth ever heard BUT does anyone know if there has been any progress into getting this myth on the show ???????? if not then why are we still debating this ?
