Pentagon Research

Disclaimer - I am not an explosives expert. This page is pure speculation for you to think about. It's purpose is not to prove this exact device is responsible for the exit hole, but is simply to demonstrate there is a mechanism that can cause damage almost identical to what we see in regards to the exit hole. But the obvious and intuitive evidence is very compelling. This device is called a Rapid Wall Breaching Kit. You can read about it here .

This is the phenomenon we are trying to account for. Let's start with a few observations. The hole is exactly dead center between the columns. The pipes are evenly arced out. They don't have any indication of having an angular bend in accordance with a solid object. There is no sustained fire in or around the hole even though some of the debris appears flammable. The debris is not even scorched or burnt on this side of the wall. Bricks are sprayed to the left in this photo which is the opposite direction of the alleged aircraft nose. There is no aircraft nose or any aircraft parts of size. Since this photo is taken by an official I would assume if they were there, we would have seen photos of them.

I have labeled the pictures according to how I imagine the kit being used at the Pentagon. With the explosive force projected into the A-E drive and the actual fiery explosion occurring inside the "C" ring. Notice that it is placed dead center in the wall, the exact same placement of the hole at the Pentagon. This test wall appears to be about twice as thick as the Pentagon wall.

I wonder if it would look similar to this? Brick spread out in all directions with the bulk of the debris in the center. This is a great photo to demonstrate that there is NO impact on the "B" ring wall which would indicate a solid object and no evidence of any large pieces of aircraft.

Look at the darker outer ring in the photo above. The inner diameter is smaller. I believe this is due to the fact that the test wall is approximately twice as thick. Look at the generally similar shapes of the inner holes. They both have an essentially straight line across the top indicative of the horizontal nature of the bricks and the sides have hints of straight lines in places. Another thing to note is that the "exit" hole does not appear to reflect a hole made by an object traveling at a 45 degree angle. It is round just like the RWBK.

The left photo above is the back side of a concrete wall where the device was attached. The photo on the right is the inside of the Pentagon exit hole. On the left you can see the blast marks and the coloration. The hole on the left in this case is obviously much smaller than the Pentagon exit hole. But do you see the edge and color similarities? If the blackening in the photo on the right was from a sustained fire then it also seems that there would have been flame visible inside the first photo of the exit hole. Remember none of the debris sticking out in the first photo were burned either. One other interesting item here is that if the nose of an aircraft slid through here, there doesn't appear to be any gouging on the floor!

Remember in this space the "back explosion" would be confined inside the structure. It would put a lot of force on the walls and ceiling which may explain why the two second story windows above it are broken from the bottom possibly from shock or vibration. The window to the right has been knocked open by some force as well. There is another point to consider here - what caused the debris inside the building to exit the hole? I believe if the confined space were pressurized (since there are no windows on floor one in the "C" ring) that as soon as an escape were available, i.e. a hole in the wall, that the force would drag the contents of the room with it.

These windows were not broken by heat. There is no smoke coming from them and the one to the right has only been knocked open by something. They were not broken by the fire department for ventilation either. There was a 5.5 inch steel reinforced concrete slab between the floors so no possible fire travel could occur and firefighter 101 is to break windows at the very top for all ventilation.

Above is what the back side of the explosion would look like inside the building. On the right is another inside shot of the exit hole. The column to the right is 3N North signifying it is to the north of the renovation line. The heavily damaged column in the center is 5N North. If an explosion took place from the back side of the wall into the Pentagon I would expect that the face of the columns away from the explosion would sustain limited damage. This is the exact opposite of what we would expect if an aircraft/explosion were coming from the left in this photo. But it is what we see - the columns on the side nearest to us are the least damaged. The column right behind the explosion would be the most seriously damaged which is also what we see here. Another thing to notice are the pipes running across the top of the ceiling. They do not seem to have been impacted from the left as if from aircraft debris. They also are not bent back away from the exit hole from a blast. I believe that is because of that steel beam between them and the exit hole. Both of these columns were rated "Yellow - Cracking and spalling but no significant function in impairment". They appear to be in very different conditions to me (See the "Column Damage Falsification?" page for the details).

I guess the next question would be is there any direct evidence of secondary explosions at the Pentagon? The answer is yes. I had to make the above clip by hand from stills and audio recorded from the Bob Pugh video. This explosion occurs 1:02 into the video, roughly 8 minutes into the incident. The first frame will pause for 3.5 seconds and then you can hear the explosion. Watch the military guy in the center whip around in response to the explosion.

This is backed up by the following two quotes:
"A few minutes later a second, much smaller explosion got the attention of the police arriving on the scene. They began ordering people back into their cars and away." (Source)

"Even before stepping outside I could smell the cordite. Then I knew explosives had been set off somewhere." (Source)

One final evidence of a possible blast are these windows across from the exit hole that have been broken. As we know the debris pile seemed to stay on a low trajectory and did no significant visible damage to the "B" ring wall. An explosive force however could have been responsible for this. It appears that even the windows closer to the impact site remain intact.

As I said at the top of this page I am not an explosives expert. The exit hole I have mentioned before is one of the greatest anomalies at the Pentagon incident. The nose of a plane is impossible. A ball of "energy" and debris staying intact after navigating all of the interior and exterior walls, office contents and columns also seems unlikely. There has to be some reason that all of the official reports refused to explain the exit hole. On this page we have observed a possible mechanism that does makes sense and fits ALL of the evidence better than any theory so far.

Why the exit hole though? That area of "C" ring had no windows on floor one and no doors in the unrenovated Wedge 2 where the exit hole is located. Maybe it was intended as a humane escape route for the people inside. If they wanted to do total destruction why would they have blast reinforced the front of the building in Wedge 1 (which was also the least occupied wedge)? People did make it out of the exit hole according to witnesses. Another function of the hole could've been cross-ventilation to minimize damage to the building by attempting to keep the fire on floor one. The aircraft nose was just a cover story because the RWBK makes a round hole and the nose of an aircraft is round and would appear logical to the uninformed.
