Commentary as time permits
The
famous "flash frame" that is missing from some renditions of
the first hit footage.
In other circumstances, a shadow is not seen as part of an object. This shadow is supposed to be a plane wing.
Stand somewhere on a sunny morning. Make a shadow.
It follows you, but is it part of you?
Woops.
Now part of the shadow has gone away.When you sit, your shadow looks shorter than if you stand.
Now
the shadow is detached from what it is a shadow of.Check your feet. Does your shadow ever detach from them?
Slight
of Hand works by fooling the eye. Eyes get fooled easy, overwhelmed by information and fooled into thinking what they expect to see.
That is not the body of a plane.
It is an explosion that hasn't turned fireball yet, front on. From the
side, it would look like Page 12 explosion
on the side of the building.
This is frame 60. We have covered
2 and a half seconds of real time, roughly.
Explosions are beginning to develop at the ends where they expect you
to see "wingtips"
