      All this can be done inside a computer simulation by plugging in the variables, of the plane structure, weather, wind speed, age of the materials, fuel, ect ect. All tied to a accurate physics engine 911 can be recreated and results determined, quite accurately,

      God Damnit! We have detailed physicx simulations! use the 1.5 mio to run thousands of simulations and then take the mean and determine if it's plausible... such a waste of money.

    Could've bought Johnny a house for $150,000 used $50,000 for his rehab, $20,000 to get him a good car, remodel the house, fully fit it out, good wardrobe etc and then inflated all the values and kept over $100k for themselves.
    Yes, it would've still been scammy, but a hell of a lot better than what actually happened.

    The worst part of the Daniel Perez video isn't even the children screaming, it's when they go silent and start quietly sobbing in fear of him after he tells them they better shut the f up. Absolutely heartbreaking.

      I feel sorry for the kids. My wife and me decided to not have children, because we are already stressed with our business and like to travel to isolated nature. Neither of us has problems with agressio and we have a very nice house, but our lifestyle is unfit for children. But when i see things like this, it really upsets me.
      Only people which have the time, space and especially the mental strenght and calmness to properly raise their children should become parents.

    With the 9/11 thing you mention it would be hard to find a matching building but miss out a huge other issue. Where is there a building anywhere even remotely appropriately sized for this test that is far enough from civilization that it would be safe to crash an airplane into it? This isn't a controlled building demolition where you just have to clear out the surrounding block or two. You would need it to be miles away from anyone or any building to avoid collateral damage.

She willingly took part in the scam and the lavish lifestyle but when all hell broke loose she set up her boyfriend to take the fall and came up with sob story on TV. I think she should get around the same amount of punishment honestly, regardless of the plea deal. I'm hoping her life after prison is enough punishment to make up for it.

    He shouldn't be punished for being accessory to a crime from a set of laws that let what happened to him beforehand be legal. (Homelessness in America has no justification outside of greed, he was just playing the game they forced him to.) Hope he gets clean and is still able to rebuild some kinda life.
    (Though, 15 years is honestly real harsh for a different kind of addict to get too. Obviously he and Kate still did a lot wrong and deserve some punishment, but that's half his god damn life up until now right there.)

    Oof to the 9/11 one...and $1.5 million isn't even close anyways to recreating all the things in that scenario (where the hell are you getting the building? What building of that size are you finding in an area that will ensure it doesn't hurt other people? You're also neither buying nor building one for that amount. And yes, as stated, there are just way too many factors that would need to be recreated to truly get it right. I think the whole thing is horribly insensitive and tasteless anyways. What the fucking hell is wrong with people...😖)
    To the mother who faked her son's death, I hope she lost custody of him. She faked a funeral for him...that is greed beyond greed to really look at your baby boy and conceptualize their funeral for the sake of milking more money out of people. I ask again, what the fucking hell is wrong with people...
    To Daniel Perez, beating and screaming at his children and the wife aiding in the horrible scams, I hope neither ever see those children again as well until they're adults and they only see their parents to give them the finger. I remember Philip DeFranco playing the audio briefly when it happened and...ugh. That was just sick. For the third time, I ask, what the fucking hell is wrong with people?
    And to the last story, while it does seem Kate was being abused by her boyfriend (it sound like he became physical with her in that chilling audio), which makes him a foul piece of shit, she was no saint either and those flippant text messages detailing about how she's going to tell this and that lie makes her a terrible person as well, and she had zero room to snap at her boyfriend like he made her do it. Oh really? He made you buy those purses? The expensive trips? Go on multiple talk shows? Buy that BMW? The fact that she used domestic abuse as some gross excuse for the theft of other people's money is baffling and upsetting. What the fucking hell is wrong with these people?
    As for Johnny, while stealing is still terribly wrong, at the absolute least he truly was homeless, so a lie of this kind is understandable. It's still a horrible thing to do, but at least I can see a homeless person trying to get themselves together with a stunt like this. With everything just spoken about, Johnny is laughably the least scummy person of the video.

    The other problem with 9-11 redux, 1.5 million is not even close to enough to get anywhere near accurate. Off hand the Boeing 757 out of the box would be like a million dollars alone, and my guess is the radio control would be far more sophisticated that a RadioShack kit and therefore significantly more expensive. Also, the furniture and what not in the offices probably costs at least 2 million at thrift store and garage sale prices. You're probably looking at 15+ million if you wanted to do that right and not breed more conspiracies.

The planes that did hit the towers were larger than this and thus the damage was too much for the building to withstand.

      That wasn't what that Kickscam was talking about, in the wake of 9/11 several camps emerged for one reason or another under two banners: Pro-Government which supports the Government's statements on what happened, vs. Pro-Investigation, also called Pro-Conspiracy by their detractors. PI obviously in the opposite camp from PG and believe the Government was either involved, orchestrated it or stood to profit from the event and thus stood down and let it happen.
      The Kickscam sought to prey on peoples desire for answers as to whether or not the Government did it by claiming to be trying to replicate and test the event to prove one side or the other correct.
      It was a sickening Kickscam aiming to take advantage of both Victims and Investigators alike.

    2: Things are better left the way it is. This ain't UBER or Amazon. In the end, it's downright awful.

    1.5 million is not even 1/10th the price of ONE 767 engine. Let alone the entire plane. Let alone the airgas. Let alone buying a building. Let alone buying all surrounding buildings that will be set on fire. Let alone the cleanup cost. Let alone the SECOND plane you need. Let alone the cost of the remote control systems and lastly, the crew. Absolutely laughable.
    For reference, a 767 costs 185 million minimum. Two of them would be double that (I doubt you can RENT a 767...). A tower half the mass of the WTC would cost 450-600 million dollars. As said, you would need to buy all the surrounding property unless you want to go to Gitmo for, you know, being a terrorist and raining glass/fire on active populated buildings. You would need to buy all buildings in a several block radius, costing anywhere from 800 million to 2 billion dollars depending on location. Then the cost of two sets of trained pilots willing to do this ridiculous stunt, one of which is willing to jump out of the 767 via the emergency escape (which has has a looooow chance of survival). Minimum you're looking at 2-3 million for hazard pay alone, as well as the crew necessary to fuel and make flight worthy two planes that size. Add to it 50,000 dollars for one load of airgas, times two, and a complicated remote control system at 500k.
    But yeah I'm sure 1.5 million will cover it. Why use advanced FEA tools when we can destroy perfectly good buildings?
