Disinformation in Flight 175 Rare Video (Posted Sep 11 2013)

When Parallax is Presented as a CGI Glitch

By Mark Conlon

Introduction:

This is an article I wrote in September 2013, which was in response to a viral video that was made by Markus Allen, who was a promoter of videos of Flight 175 being the result of video fakery and CGI. Even 11 years later, the video produced by Markus Allen still deceives people, who still believe that the video contains a CGI glitch (as Markus Allen describes it) of the plane’s wing going behind the building in the foreground. As you will see, this particular issue (CGI glitch) that Markus Allen tried to present as a CGI glitch, was not a CGI glitch at all, and was completely normal, and was the result of parallax. This is a common theme used by the video fakery promoters, who exploit parallax as video fakery. The fact is, I still see this video doing the rounds on the internet, and is still presented as EVIDENCE by people, that the plane in the video is a result of video fakery and CGI. Below is my original article, explaining why the plane is not video fakery or a CGI glitch.

Recently, a "Rare Video" of Flight 175 apparently hitting WTC 2 on 911 was re-circulated. This was originally videoed by Michael Hezarkhani.

Though the video correctly states that the way the crash and explosion happen is impossible (if a normal plane was involved), the thrust of this video is that it must be fake, because the plane wing passes behind a building when it should not be able to do this, because it is claimed the building in question is behind WTC 2.

My short analysis below clearly shows that this conclusion is incorrect. See below for additional information:

The picture below shows the Michael Hezarkhani video with the two buildings in question which Markus Allen claims the plane’s wing passes behind.

In the picture below will help us to understand the two buildings location in relation to the South Tower in the Michael Hezarkhani video.

The picture below also helps to demonstrate the location of the two buildings in question in relation to the Twin Towers at ground level. They are located to the right of the Twin Towers. 

Below I have inserted the plane’s trajectory into the picture to demonstrate how plane’s wing should have passed behind the two buildings in question, when you consider Michael Hezarkhani’s location on board the ferry at Battery Park.

The picture below plots Michael Hezarkhani’s location and the location of the buildings in question and also the plane's trajectory.

Although the two buildings appear to the left in the Michael Hezarkhani video still image below, they are in fact as I have established to the right and in front of the South Tower, this optical effect is due to the parallax viewing position of Michael Hezarkhani.

To understand how Markus Allen made this error, and misrepresented the building’s location we must understand how parallax views work. Please see the picture below to help understand parallax viewing perspectives.

Parallax is a displacement or difference in the apparent position of an object viewed along two different lines of sight.

In the picture below the buildings appear to be to the left of the South Tower, when in fact they are really located to the right. Depending on the point of reference as in the picture below where Michael Hezarkhani is located, the buildings will appear to be to the left of the Towers. This is called parallax viewing. If the camera perspective was located more to the left, then the two buildings would appear to move more to the right. This is how simple errors are made due to not understanding parallax viewing perspectives in videos and photographs.

In conclusion

The plane’s wing should have passed behind the buildings in the foreground in the Michael Hezarkhani video, and not in front as Markus Allen claims in his video where he misrepresented the building’s location. He also didn’t take into account Michael Hezarkhani’s location and viewing perspective. It is clearly demonstrated that CGI or video fakery was NOT used in this video, but more of an attempt to discredit the Michael Hezarkhani video, and call into question the legitimate evidence captured within it. Unfortunately, Markus Allen has shared his video far and wide across the internet, where it has been re-circulated by people unknowingly promoting the false information contained in it in the video, which I feel was the deliberate objective of Markus Allen himself to promote ‘video fakery’. 

There’s also a short video I made about this below:
