Possibly an old conspiracy, but it has been claimed that the Verrazano Narrows Bridge in the "live" 911 footage from a helicopter was faked, because the background "moves too fast" and the bridge is too large.
I find this debunk rather obscure and I don't expect much rebuttal because it's all about camera lenses and POV (point of view).....but since I made videos about it years ago........it's for the record.
The "suspicious videos" claimed to be faked....
Using a telephoto lense from a helicopter, pointed on the WTC from 5 miles out, and circling around it, will indeed cause a compression of scale on the objects captured on video. Objects in the background will naturally look "large" because of the telescopic image compression.
Some people cannot grasp this fact, or understand it.....because they have no experience with telephoto lenses. They then tend to deny the normal effect.
Here is a video from a 911 conspiracy supporter, but who understands the particular situation....
Here are my old, and nearly feeble attempts to explain the same thing....
Here is a video showing the background compression via lens focal length....
If that's not enough, there are many videos showing helicopters circling around buildings....
Watch the end of this video.......
