Here's an even better example:

http://www.guitarsolos.com/videos-foot-kapla-stack-tower-falls-down-%5BNBbz2eIoVDQ%5D.cfm

Quick summary if you don't want to watch:

Students build a 31 foot Jenga-like tower. (I think this toy is actually called "kapla.")

First person tries to knock it down and shoots a ball at it with a slingshot. It knocks a big hole in it but the tower does not fall down. (Sound familiar?)

Second person shoots a ball at it and misses.

Third person shoots a ball at it and hits about the same place. This time the tower collapses - almost straight down. (Sound even more familiar?)

Cool video; and "Surprise! Surprise!" It fell nearly straight down.

Rather ironic coming from someone who believes the most far fetched things they read on the net.

Oh it's worse than that. Most of his information comes from videos put up on YouTube

Do you want to have an ideagasm?

That's it. The tower started to rock to one side as if it was going to fold but the structure was too weak to support the movement and collapsed at the pivot point, which stopped the lateral forces and the downforce predominated.

Great find, bill! It also shows that it's not a solid block.

But did they find any thermite!?

Were the blocks in freefall?

you are all missing the point - it took 2 impacts and not 1 for the blocks to fall so it proves nothing

Three ... three impacts.
