This is a screen-shot of Flight
175 still in the air after crashing into the South Tower on 9/11 on MS-NBC's
news coverage approximately one hour after Flight 175 was reported as crashing
into the South Tower. In the news coverage they go to their real time 'flight
explorer' tracker whereby they hover over different planes being displayed on
the flight explorer screen-shot which displays information about the
planes which are still in the air-space from the FAA Radar System. As they
hover-over one of the planes an information text box appears next to the
plane. What was displayed in one particular information text box next to
the plane was the Flight - UAL 175, Departure - BOS and Arrival LAX,
clearly indicating that Flight 175 was still in the air flying after it was
reported as crashed into the South Tower. Flight 175 appears to be flying away
from New York (if it ever was over New York) and towards Connecticut one hour
after the crash?
Below: Enlargement, along with
'additional' inverted colour version comparison:
Clearly in the above
image 'Flight 175' Departure from BOS 09:15a and Arrival LAX

The official radar flight path does not correspond with any position location
in the MS-NBC News coverage, which is an official FAA Radar System, so this can
rule-out any real-time delays, plus Flight 175 was
located North-West of Connecticut in the official radar positioning when
departing from Boston Logan Airport for Los Angeles LAX when making its
detour towards New York. The MS-NBC radar position has Flight 175
more South-West of Connecticut one hour after the plane crash.
Official Flight 175 Path Below:
The question has to be asked. If
Flight 175 was still in the air one hour after the alleged crash at the South
Tower, where was it heading to...? Clearly it did not crash into the South
Tower, but was en-route to somewhere? The question is where? Possibility... Was
it heading back to Boston Logan International Airport to be grounded, as the
direction it seemed to be heading could suggest that? Or was
it directed to another location? Again I'm speculating here.
Another possibility could be:
Flight 175 was part of the training exercises taking place that morning
and was a phantom flight blip on the radar system which didn't exist at all..?
More research needs to be
conducted to gather more information and evidence before making
assumptions so these questions can be sufficiently answered.
This is an on-going
article which is being updated as I gather more information about this
research. I will be having more to discuss about this so check back soon.
The reference material used in this analysis is from Simon Shack’s film September Clues, which is from Simon Shack’s YouTube Channel: https://youtu.be/gORu-68SHpE
In part three of this analysis I’m going to explore two claims made by Simon Shack, starting at 100:22 into his film September Clues. He claims Pavel Hlava’s video footage of Flight 175 impacting the South Tower is a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage of the same event. Simon Shack also claims at 100:51 in his film that the Rector St building is missing in the Pavel Hlava video. This isn’t the first time that the “absence” of this building has been wrongly presented in a video. Another ‘video fakery’ promotor named Markus Allen also made a claim about Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage having the Rector St building missing, which I proved to be a false claim, follow link below for article:
At 100:22 in September Clues, Simon Shack claims Pavel Hlava’s video footage of Flight 175 impacting the South Tower is a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage.
At 100:30 - Simon Shack then uses a comparison split screen / side-by-side shot of Pavel Hlava’s video footage and Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage, suggesting that a “Similar Gentle Zoom-out” and “Similar Angle of WTC and Airplane”.
If this was a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage, the perspectives and angles would be the same, as they would have been taken from the same location or in very close proximity. Simon Shack says they are “similar”, which implies they are not the same! This is a key point, because looking at the two videos suggests that they were captured from two different locations, and would prove that Pavel Hlava’s video footage is genuine and not a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s.
This corresponded with Carmen Taylor’s location, where she took her photographs – and they too show something very similar to Michael Hezarkhani’s video footage. Carmen Taylor disclosed her location to Canadian researcher Jeff Hill in a phone call (at a time code 1 minute 44 seconds into the conversation).
To prove that Pavel Hlava’s video is different, and not a re-edit of the Hezarkhani video I set-out to find exactly where Pavel Hlava was located when he took his video footage of Flight 175 impacting the South Tower.
Please see location images below:
Using the Google Street view images above, we can now determine that Pavel Hlava captured his video footage of Flight 175 impacting the South Tower when he was at the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel entrance. To understand the difference in locations of Michael Hezarkhani and Pavel Hlava I plotted their locations on a map.
See map below:
As we can see from their locations above on the map, Pavel Hlava and Michael Hezarkhani were quite some distance away from each other. Simon Shack fails to point this out when making his claim that Pavel Hlava’s video is a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s.
Another thing which Simon Shack doesn’t take into account is the camera’s zoom level in Michael Hezarkhani’s video, which can give you a false perspective of his location compared to Pavel Hlava’s location, which was closer to the South tower.
See example below:
This comparison screen-shot above in the September Clues film at 100:30 looks quite convincing in backing up Simon Shack’s claims regarding a re-edited version of Michael Hezarkhani’s video. Also note how Simon Shack has squashed the Hezarkhani video, which makes it appear more like Pavel Hlava’s video.
When watching complete versions of both videos, you can see the zoomed-out sequence in the Michael Hezarkhani video gives you a completely different perspective from Hlava’s, demonstrating perfectly that they were taken from two different locations.
See below: camera zoom analysis comparisons
Simon Shack also fails to explain that the Hezarkhani video was zoomed-in when he captured the plane in his video footage, whereas Pavel Hlava’s was already zoomed-out when he captured the plane in his video footage. In the Michael Hezarkhani zoomed-out sequence it shows a different foreground, compared to Pavel Hlava’s already zoomed-out sequence. This proves conclusively that the two videos were taken in different locations to each other! We can even see different buildings in the (real) foreground, as shown in the two images below!
I have shown that Pavel Hlava’s video was taken from the Brooklyn Battery Tunnel, and the foreground is genuine in his video, so we can now see that Simon Shack is clearly wrong in his suggestion of one or more “missing” buildings, to support his claim of ‘video fakery’ . This is shown at 100:51 in his film.
Again when analysing Simon Shack’s claim, it becomes clear that he conceals evidence – for example by not showing the viewers the full Pavel Hlava video sequence. Instead, Simon Shack decides to show a still image, thus concealing clear evidence about one or more of the “missing” buildings – which are, in fact, visible in the both videos!
See below: video evidence of the "Banker's Trust" building, which Simon Shack claimed was missing.
See Below: Supporting evidence using a computer 3D model of the "Banker's Trust" building location in the Pavel Hlava video.
In conclusion:
Again questions are raised about Simon Shack’s presentation of video evidence and the methods he uses in his film, September Clues. Why did Simon Shack not show the full video sequence of the Pavel Hlava video? This would have proved there was no “missing building” ! Why did Simon Shack claim Pavel Hlava’s video was a re-edit of Michael Hezarkhani’s video, when clearly both videos are taken from two different locations, which was easily established when researched correctly?
Is Simon Shack promoting the idea of ‘video fakery’ to discredit the video evidence record of 9/11? When studying Simon Shack’s presentation in his film, it becomes clear that he has continually omitted or misrepresented evidence – by using cleverly timed editing. This has therefore concealed evidence which shows a number of his claims are false. From my past analysis, where I have disproven other claims he makes in his film, it is now appearing to be a deliberate pattern of deceptive and misleading behaviour, rather than poor research skills, suggesting an agenda to promote disinformation about the video record on 9/11. Is Simon Shack promoting the idea that the ‘video fakery’ explains anomalies in the behaviour of Flight 175 when it crashes into the South Tower? Is Simon Shack attempting to discredit the 9/11 videos to help conceal what was really captured in the videos? Again, I ask the question - is Simon Shack disseminating disinformation in an attempt to hide the fact that advanced image projection technology was used to create the illusion of plane crashes?
It appears Simon Shack is overseeing a Psychological Operation to promote ‘video fakery’ to lead people away from closely studying other explanations for the 9/11 video evidence. When people believe they have an explanation for the anomalies, it stops them studying the evidence any further. This personally happened to me for several years, and in that respect, Simon Shack’s Psychological Operation worked, as I didn’t continue to study closely, because I thought I had the answers… How wrong I was.
In this analysis I will focus on Simon Shack’s claim in his
film September Clues regarding the plane’s nose bumping into a ‘layering-line limit’
as the plane’s nose exits from the WTC South tower building in the Fox News
‘Chopper 5’ live coverage. In particular I will focus on the abrupt cut-off of
the plane’s nose, closely studying the following preceding frames leading up
to the ‘Fade to Black’ sequence, so I can verify whether there is evidence to
support Simon Shack’s claims of the plane’s nose being cut-off by a ‘layering-line
limit’ and also whether a ‘layering-line limit’ is present at all in the Fox News
‘Chopper 5’ live coverage?
My reference material link from which I conducted my video analysis of Simon Shack’s video
is from his official YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/gORu-68SHpE
Abrupt cut-off of
the plane’s nose analysis:
At 6:54 in the September Clues film Simon Shack asserts that
the graphic inserted CGI plane’s nose visibly bumps into the layer-limit in the
Fox News ‘Chopper 5’ live coverage. See below image screen-shot taken at 6:54 in
September Clues film where the plane’s nose is abruptly cut-off.
Clearly in the above screen-shot image at 6:54 in September
Clues, Simon Shack shows the plane’s nose appearing to be abruptly cut-off by
an alleged ‘layering-line limit’.
I found this theory confusing because in the Fox News
‘chopper 5’ video sequences Simon Shack uses in his September Clues film at
7:14 and 7:23 do not show an abrupt cut-off of the plane’s nose in the identical
frames. Additionally, the plane’s nose appears to be intact in proceeding
frames as the plane’s nose continues forward before the ‘Fade to Black’
sequence. How can this be if the plane’s nose according to Simon Shack is
disappearing behind a ‘layering-line limit’?
I decided to compare two Fox News ‘chopper 5’ nose-out
identical frames taken from Simon Shack’s film September Clues.
See below: Identical
frame screen-shots at 6:50 and 7:14 in September Clues
When analysing the two “identical” frames of the plane’s
nose they did not appear to be identical at all! Consider the plane nose
which Simon Shack presents at 6:50 in his film, compared to the plane’s nose in
the identical image at 7:14 in his film. The 7:14. The second image is different to the first. I decided to take a
closer look and do a pixel analysis of the two planes' noses.
See below:Pixel Analysis:
In the identical
frame at 7:14 in the September Clues film, softer pixels of the end of the
plane's nose are present. How can this be if the plane's nose has allegedly
bumped into a ‘layering-line limit’ as Simon Shack claims in the earlier
identical frame at 6:50? Inverting the colour of images seems to make these
differences clearer (see below)
Inverted Colour Pixel
Analysis:
I then looked at another “identical” frame showing the “Nose
out” from 7:23 in Simon Shack’s film
See below: Analysis
identical plane ‘Nose-out’ frame at 7:23
Again softer pixels are observed with the end of the plane’s
nose which was intact and not abruptly cut-off, like we see in the 6:50 identical
frame showing the plane’s nose cut-off. Again, how can this be? According to
Simon Shack’s theory, the plane’s nose is bumping into the ‘layering-line limit’.
We now have two identical frame images showing the plane’s nose ‘intact’ and
not abruptly cut-off.
See below: Example
highlighting Simon Shack’s theory of the ‘layering-line limit’
If the ‘layering-line limit’ was in place as Simon Shack
claims at 6:50 in his film we would not be observing any pixel soft edges of
the plane’s nose in the other two identical frames he uses in his film at 7:14
and 7:23.
See all three
identical frames - 6:50, 7:14 and 7:23 of the planes’ noses for comparison below:
In the pixel analysis it appears that pixels have been
removed off the end of the plane’s nose in the 6:50 frame, compared to the other
two identical frames of the plane’s nose pixels, which show no abrupt cut-off
of the plane’s nose.
This now calls into question whether a ‘layering-line limit’
is present at all in the video footage as Simon Shack claims, because the other
two plane noses in 7:14 and 7:23 would not be ‘intact’ if they were meant to be
disappearing behind a ‘layering-line limit’ as Simon Shack suggests.
To test Simon Shack’s ‘layering-line limit’ theory further I
did an analysis of the preceding frames in the Fox News ‘chopper 5’ video
footage to see if the plane’s nose disappears behind the ‘layering-line limit’
– as it should, if it was continuing forward behind the ‘layering-line limit’
before the ‘Fade to Black’ sequence.
In the analysis below, I have used a Fox News ‘chopper 5’
sequence which Simon uses in his film at 4:46. This particular sequence which Simon
Shack uses contains the ‘abrupt cut-off’ of the plane’s nose. I thought this
would be an ideal sequence to test and analyse his theory for evidence of a ‘layering-line
limit’ in the video footage.
From my analysis above it appears that the plane’s nose
remains intact in the preceding frames right through to the ‘Fade to Black’
sequence. There is no evidence of the plane’s nose disappearing behind a ‘layering-line
limit’. This proves beyond any doubt from the video evidence in Simon Shacks
own film at 4:46, that there is no ‘layering-line limit’ in the Fox News ‘chopper
5’ video footage, because the plane’s nose does not disappear or get abruptly
cut-off.
This is also supported by the other video evidence of the preceding
frames in Simon Shack’s film at 7:23 where he uses the Fox News ‘chopper 5’
sequence which demonstrates the plane’s nose remaining ‘intact’ throughout the
whole sequence, with no ‘abrupt cut-off’ or disappearance behind any ‘layering-line
limit’ in the preceding frames to the ‘Fade to Black’ sequence.
See below: Other
preceding frames video evidence at 7:23
Conclusion of the Evidence:
We have three different plane noses in the Fox News ‘chopper
5’ sequences used in Simon Shack’s film September Clues. Two of which identical
frames 7:14 and 7:23 were analysed to show that both plane’s noses are not
abruptly cut-off by a ‘layering-line limit’ as suggested by Simon Shack in the
6:50 identical frame. To further support this evidence of the plane’s noses
remaining intact and not disappearing behind any ‘layering-line limit’ is the preceding
frames analysis, where I analysed the preceding frames in Simon Shack's Fox
News ‘chopper 5’ sequences he uses at 4:46 and 7:23.
Questions have to be
asked and seriously considered…
Does this suggest Simon Shack has manipulated the plane’s
nose to suit his theory regarding the ‘layering-line limit? In the Pixel
analysis, pixels appear to have been removed from this frame at 6:50 when compared
to the other two plane noses in the two identical frames at 7:14 and 7:23 in
his film.
From my own analysis using Simon Shack’s own film evidence,
it suggests that some type of manipulation has taken place to remove the softer
pixels around the plane’s nose in his 6:50 frame. Was this done to support and
advance his theory regarding the plane’s nose allegedly bumping into its own ‘layering-line
limit’?
As we have seen from all the video evidence in Simon Shack’s
film, the preceding frames all show the plane’s nose intact leading up to the
‘Fade to black’ sequence, which would be impossible if there was a ‘layering-line
limit’ as Simon Shack suggests.
Other supporting evidence suggesting Simon Shack manipulated
the plane’s nose becomes more apparent when you compare the identical frame
sequence he uses in his earlier version of his film September Clues.
See the screen-shot comparisons below:
In the earlier version of September clues the plane’s nose
isn’t abruptly cut-off by the alleged ‘layering-line limit’ observed in the
later film version. The frames are identical, yet the plane noses are very
different.Is this conclusive evidence
of manipulation of the plane’s nose by Simon Shack?
Other researchers have raised questions about Simon Shack’s ‘nose-in’
‘nose-out’ evidence in the past. There is an interesting video clip here of
Richard D. Hall discussing with Andrew Johnson, Simon Shack’s analysis of the
plane’s nose that is in his film regarding the Fox News ‘chopper5’ ‘video. It
is interesting to note that both Richard D. Hall and Andrew Johnson suggest
that some type of manipulation has taken place regarding Simon Shack’s evidence
he uses in his analysis of the plane’s nose. Short video clip here below:
Summing-up, I suggest a strong possibility that Simon Shack
has removed the end of the plane’s nose in his 6:50 frame to support his ‘false’
theory for a ‘layering-line limit’. The video evidence analysis I have
conducted and presented in this article does NOT support any such
‘layering-line limit’ theory as suggested by Simon Shack in his film. Has Simon
Shack himself manipulated video
frames to promote the idea that the video fakery on a larger scale to explain
the anomalies in the behaviour of Flight 175 when it allegedly crashed into the
South Tower? Is this because the videos are actually real and show an image of
something which was not a real physical plane? I.e. is Simon Shack
disseminating disinformation in an attempt to hide the fact that an advanced image
projection technology was used to create the illusion of plane crashes?
In part one of this analysis I’m going to explore video footage which
was broadcast live on September 11th 2001. The Good Day New York
Chopper 5 live news coverage captured United Airlines Flight 175 impacting the
South World Trade Tower. This particular live news coverage captured anomalies
within it which has been highly controversial. The particular area I want to
explore in the live video coverage is the famous ‘nose-in’ ‘nose-out’ footage.
The video captured the plane’s nose of United AirlinesFlight 175exiting from the South Tower with
its nose intact, without any apparent damage done to it.
Let’s all agree from the outset that this is an
impossibility which defies laws of physics as we know it. The question is: How
did the Boeing 767 plane’s nose, (where the electronics are situated) penetrate
through the steel wall columns and internal central core columns of the South
Tower?
When September Clues surfaced on the internet in 2007 it
offered answers to my many questions concerning this unusual anomaly captured
within the ‘Chopper 5 news’ footage. Simon Shack’s explanation claimed that a
‘CGI plane’ was inserted and layering was used which accidentally drifted off
centre,
allowing an inserted CGI plane’s nose to accidentally poke-out of the
other-side of the South World Trade Centre building, which was followed by a
blank black screen for 15 frames to conceal the “error“ activated by a
television supervisor, which became commonly known as the ‘fade to black’ sequence,
which tried to quickly cover-up the mistake made by the perpetrator’s.
For many years I was satisfied with Simon Shack’s hypothesis
in his film September Clues and the explanation of video fakery in the Chopper
5 news footage with the plane’s nose-in, nose-out anomaly sequence. I was also
influenced by another character named Ace Baker regarding the use of video
fakery in the Chopper 5 news footage, which also led me to sit back and accept video
fakery was most likely to have been used in the news videos on 9/11.After studying more closely Simon Shack’s
other claims regarding video fakery in other 9/11 videos I began to see a
pattern emerging where information was being omitted by Shack in his film to
make his case of video fakery. I found this very deceptive and extremely
misleading. It appears he successfully mislead many viewers to believe that the
chopper 5 news footage was fake, thus discrediting the video footage.This conveniently created a division and
distraction away from what the live Chopper 5 news footage really showed.
To illustrate the omissions made by Simon Shack in his film September
Clues I will first demonstrate his hypotheses so we can understand the bigger
picture.
Shack believes a centre layer was added to the video footage
which a graphic inserted plane would disappear behind to prevent the plane
exiting the South Tower. See pictures below taken from September Clues video.
The picture below shows how Shack believes a ‘Luma Key’ and
contrast was used to wash out the Sky-line in the Chopper 5 news video. As I
discuss later in this analysis the technique of using ‘Luma Key’ in this video
footage creates a major flaw in Shack’s hypothesis, which completely discredits
it.
The picture below shows the reference centre layer-line (in
yellow) which creates a layer to the side of the building which would conceal
the plane’s nose, but according to Simon Shack the Chopper 5 news helicopter
fitted with the F.I.R Camera system drifted slightly to the side which off-set
the centre (yellow) layer-line, which is why the plane’s nose was able to be
inadvertently be revealed and intact.
Please note: Still
image from September Clues. Centre layer line is set perfectly in this shot
before the camera drifted to the side.
The picture below shows the centre layer-line (in red)
drifting off centre which off-set the centre (red) layer-line allowing the
plane’s nose to appear out of the side of the building.
Please note: how
the (red) layer line has drifted to the side which allows the nose to be
revealed of the plane.
As we can see Shack’s hypotheses in the above pictures
seemed to offer a convincing answer to the plane’s nose anomaly which I found to
be very plausible for many years. At the time ‘video fakery’ and the ‘no planes’
debates were dividing researchers in the 9/11 Truth-Movement which has the effect of playing one faction off against the other.
Let’s take a closer
look at Simon Shack’s (CGI and Layering) hypotheses and study the evidence
closely so we can see what has been deliberately ‘omitted’
To achieve the layering of the plane going into the building
you would need a layer for the plane’s ‘entrance’ into the building so the
plane would disappear behind the building on ‘entrance’. This has been
completely omitted by Simon Shack. The question is; why has he omitted this
from his hypotheses? The ‘entrance’ layer line should have also drifted if the
‘exit’ layer line of the building drifted… “This did not happen”.
See the picture below:
I have highlighted the ‘entrance’ layer line and ‘exit’ layer
line in red.
The picture below shows the ‘nose-out’ of the plane because
of the drifting of the ‘exit’ layer line off centre. Shack makes no explanation
regarding the off-set of the ‘entrance’ layer line only the centre ‘exit’ layer
line?Note: read
captions for more details.
The plane’s ‘entrance’ layer line being off-set in the
picture above should have visibly affected the plane’s ‘entrance’ into the
building in the ‘chopper 5’ video footage. ‘THIS DID NOT HAPPEN’. This rules-out any possibility of layering
because the plane in the video “entered” the building correctly.
The fact Simon Shack ‘omitted’ the ‘entrance’ layer line is
quite confusing to me, because ideally it is only necessary for one layer line
to be applied at the ‘entrance’ of the building if the perpetrators were to use
such a layering technique. This would have avoided the problem altogether of a
nose-out issue, but would have still potentially created problems with the drifting and the off-set
of the ‘entrance’ layer line, especially with the camera being situated on the
helicopter.
Conclusion:
The fact the plane “entered” the building correctly in the ‘chopper
5’ video contradicts Simon Shack’s ‘layering and CGI’ hypotheses completely. Other
video evidence of live news broadcasts also captured the plane’s nose ‘exiting’
from the South Tower.
See pictures below:
Shack’s layering glitch hypothesis in the chopper 5 video does
not explain the video evidence, but acts merely to lead us away from studying
the evidence more closely to establish what really was captured hitting the
South Tower in the 9/11 videos and photographs.
Simon Shack’s promotion of video fakery has provided a cover-story
to distract many researchers (including myself) away from actually studying the
video evidence. I believed Shack’s hypothesis answered the anomalies in the 9/11
plane videos, only to discover the use of deceptive means to prove his claims
of video fakery.
In
part two of this blog I will deal with an in depth analysis of the
nose-out sequence that Simon Shack uses for his evidence in his film
September Clues, where clear manipulation has been used to deceive his
viewers... Thank you for reading and caring!
