What it is
A short video from a blacksmith, who heats and bends steel to rebut the claim that jet fuel could not weaken the steel in the World Trade Center. It is delivered with a lot of attitude.
Why Hacker News recommends it
HN commenters use it as a quick, hands-on demonstration that steel loses strength well below its melting point.
