WTC 2 hit

On September 11, 2001, United Airlines Flight 175 was hijacked by al-Qaeda terrorists and at 9.03 AM flown into the South Tower of the World Trade Center, also known as 2 WTC. The plane hit between 77th and 85th floor of the 110-story high tower. All 60 passengers and crew members as well as the 5 terrorists, who were on board the plane, died immediately. The clash was so violent that all escape routes except a single elevator shaft were destroyed, but only a few managed to escape that way. In all, it is estimated that 618 people did not make it down, which is considerably less than in the first tower, because 2 WTC was evacuated when it was heard that 1 WTC had been hit.

Below, we investigate various conspiracy theory claims related to Flight 175 crashing into 2 World Trade Center.

Impossible to identify the terrorists from DNA

Epilogue, Flight 93 crashes, Pentagon hit, WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 hit

Allegedly, it should be implausible that any human tissue or bone material would survive the massive destruction. It would also be impossible to compare surviving DNA with DNA from the terrorists, since they had not given DNA samples to the authorities before the terror attack. Furthermore, the claim suggests that there weren’t any hijackers on board the four planes, which means that the planes must have been remotely controlled or that the planes must have been flown into their targets by the airline pilots.

Flight 175 could not fly 950 km/h

WTC 2 hit

The claim is based on the assumption that Flight 175, a Boeing 767-222, was not designed to fly as fast as it did, when it hit the World Trade Center 2. Additionally, it was not possible to control the plane, so that it could hit the building. Thus, it cannot be Flight 175 that hit the World Trade Center 2.

Shock waves blew out windows 100 meters away and in the lobby

WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 hit

The claim insinuates that the explosions from the impact from the planes were so violent that the planes either carried explosives, or they hit exactly where a lot of explosives had been placed in advance.

The Twin Towers could withstand passenger planes

WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 hit

If the Twin Towers could withstand an impact from a Boeing plane, the reason for the collapse of the buildings must be that the buildings were brought down with previously placed explosives and nanothermite.

George W. Bush saw the first plane hit the towers

WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 hit

A quote by George W. Bush is interpreted by the conspiracy theorists as if Bush had knowledge of something that the rest of the world did not, given that the video of the first plane hitting World Trade Center 1 was not published until the day after.

The planes were remotely controlled

Flight 11 hijacked, Flight 175 hijacked, Flight 77 hijacked, Flight 93 hijacked, WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 hit

The planes were supposedly not hijacked but overtaken electronically from a secret command center and directed to their intented targets.

There were two planes, but three buildings that collapsed

WTC 1 collapses, WTC 1 hit, WTC 2 collapses, WTC 2 hit, WTC 7 collapses

The claim is used to support the claim that the Twin Towers did not collapse due to the damage caused by the planes, and the subsequent planes, and furthermore, that the collapse of the towers showed clear signs of controlled demolitions, where demolition experts have placed explosives strategically in the buildings’ structure. At a certain time, the explosives are detonated, destroying the buildings, with as little damage to the surrounding buildings as possible.

Plane engine is not from Flight 175

WTC 2 hit

The prominent member of the Danish chapter of the Truth Movement, Jeppe Severin, concludes unambigously that the crashed engine on Murray Street is a Pratt & Wittney JT9D-7A -7F or -7J, and not a Pratt & Wittney JT9D-7RD4, which would normally be the one Flight 175 would be equipped with.
