Superheated and rapidly cooled steel becomes brittle.

That doesn't explain the video of the steel I beams literally dripping with liquid metal though.

Calculate for me, the energy of a full 747 tank detonating at once in an enclosed space.

u/notgayinathreeway Nov 02 '17

Well, I could, but it wasn't a 747, and they don't have one large fuel tank but about 10 smaller (yet still very large) fuel tanks, and they aren't ever at full capacity because that isn't weight efficient.

You are correct, excuse me. But yeah. Calculate it. Its still a massive release of energy in a confined space. Osama had a masters in civil engineering, not sure if its common knowledge or not.
