Nearly ten years after the tragic events of September 11, entrepreneur David Hooper began to question the official accounts of that day. Nagging skepticism soon turned to obsession. His quest to uncover an alternate truth behind the attacks soon created disharmony within his family and near financial ruin. Hooper's feature-length documentary The Anatomy of a Great Deception encapsulates his findings during this tumultuous period of discovery.

Of course, Hooper was not alone in his perception of a conspiracy. A growing number of regular citizens and figures of various industries had embarked on their own amateur investigations by the time his suspicions were first sparked. Their findings inform much of Hooper's own conclusions.

For he and many others, the curious crumbling of Building 7 represents one of the fundamental building blocks of a potential conspiracy. Located 300 feet from the North Tower - the length of a football field - Building 7 fell to the ground in the late afternoon of 9/11. Investigators claimed it had fallen due to structural compromises caused by the intensity of heat from the neighboring Twin Towers. Yet, in researching other high-rise buildings imperiled by raging fires, Hooper was unable to locate a single incident of a nearby building collapsing as a byproduct of such an event. In fact, none of the buildings that were actually engulfed in flames collapsed either. Several engineers have also come forward and claimed that the temperature of the fires on that day could not have successfully melted the steel structure of the towers. Could this indicate evidence of a controlled demolition?

In painstaking detail, Hooper continues to lay out findings from that day which support this troubling hypothesis, including sightings of molten metal, ear witness accounts of audible explosions, and the curiously symmetrical trajectory of each tower's collapse. Scattered throughout are archived interview clips of researchers, investigators, architectural specialists, and even fire department officials who all echo these same suspicions.

Like all conspiracy films, The Anatomy of a Great Deception presents a case that may be embraced wholeheartedly by some and dismissed outright by others. But it argues its theories with sincerity and conviction.

  1. David, this is an excellent and well-researched documentary. I did send the link to this documentary to at least 100 people over the last few years. The most surprising thing is that some people refused to see this by claiming that "if this is all true, then we have nothing left to believe in" (meaning that their Western worldview of "democracy and human rights" would be shattered). However, these ideals are all worthless if we do not confront the lies we are fed on a daily basis. The quest for truth is the most important component of anything else associated with justice, fairness, or democracy. If you don't care for the truth, then nothing else matters to you.

  2. Great documentary man. Honest, emotional, with all facts presented. I have been researching my self about this subject .It's so obviously staged. Your focus was on the buildings and explosions, but there are many more evidence that it was planed. Biggest one was that the military pilots and NORAD flight controllers, days and weeks before 09/11, had a exercise in which 100% same scenario as everything really play out later. So, when it really happened, they didn't know if it was another exercise or real life event.
    I was going through the comments, it is sad to see how many people don't want to see the truth. Ignorance is a bliss. Is much easier to stick a head in the sand and have a blind faith in everything they tell you.

  3. Once the documentary started to use the term 'melted' I knew it lacked credibility. Then when the focus turned to 'in its own footprint' I turned off. None of the buildings fell in their own footprint, and even if they did how does that prove the buildings didn't collapse from impact and accompanying fires. Regardless buildings collapse without being hit by planes or other buildings and they collapse without fire being a contributory factor. Go ask the residents of Champlain Towers in Florida.

  4. Seems to me Giuliani had to hurry to get rid of evidence ,perhaps, if the conspiracy theorist are right. anyway definitely Giuliani has here in northeastern PA relatives congressman stitch .who is friends with congressman Lou Barletta ,who is friends with bush w. Barletta has a dump here in the hazleton area where giuliani's wife is from, a stitch. a place where evidence might have been taken. Concerning thermite or other types of incendiaries. These people should be investigated.

  5. This is too much. I was really hoping for some new facts and revalations but this is the same old nonsense. "Experts" talking about how a jet fuel fire can't get hot enough to make a steel beam bend. Sure, in a controlled test it won't. But how many controlled tests were done with hundreds of tons of building pressing down on the test beams?
    Also, I kept hearing about all the high rise buildings that survived hours long fires with no structural damage and are still in use today. But how many of them had a jumbo jet crash into them?
    I have a LOT of questions about 9/11. There are no answers here.

  6. I will always doubt how they were destroyed. Those who think they are always right, have no way of knowing when they are wrong. I feel that a LOT of folks will have to answer for those deaths.

  8. 49:20 Building 7's bottom walls fell out - yes because the penthouse and roof had fallen in and concertinaed the other floors which combined with the bottom walls bowing out allowed the other walls to drop straight down.

  9. 44:16 shows the fire chiefs stepping through the lobby windows that had been shattered by the great vibrations that travelled like a shock wave down the tower.

  10. 43:47 shows the tall lobby windows shattered to allow masses of air in to feed all the fires on floors 25,35 and the top floors.

  11. Jet fuel did not DRIP DOWN THE LIFT SHAFTS - there were thousands of gallons splashed into the elevator shafts as the plane impacted.
    And from all the plane crashes we've seen the jet fuel explodes in a mighty blast.
    Confine the blast in a tall building and it would sound like a demolition.

  12. Only imbeciles believe that the plane impact could be synchronised with explosions.
    The so-called explosions were just the huge floor sections snapping their bolts and amplifying the sounds.
    As the fires softened the steel it would first expand and then as it softened it would sag and collapse with great bangs.

  13. 9/11 was just a bunch of Muslims brainwashed to believe that they would get 72 virgin donkeys if they hijacked planes.

  14. People need to fully understand the capabilities of the military-industrial complex. If you read about Operation Northwoods which was vetoed by JFK in March 1962 it is a window into the things the war machine consider to provoke international conflicts. When you read about what the Joint Chiefs signed off on in 1962 you will have no drama imagining what that corruption could have evolved into in another 4 decades. 9/11 was more than a false flag Operation. It was an enormous financial crime. It was a live war game. It was a betrayal of the people.

  15. The twin towers was a conspiracy to finish the job. Ten Global Economic UNion's, where the EU was the first model too begin with. Please read Daniel chp 2-3, this will explain where we are now. The USA would become the north american union (NAU) Biden and Obama exploited the electoral and voter count, remember we have created the largest voter fraud network in American history. So confessed biden before the world. That's how bad it is. Pence gives the democratic party the win. We're headed straight into a masonic nwo, where digital currency becomes the norm, and you're freedom's are recent history.

  17. Dear Marc Powell, I struggle with this like you do and have now for some time, however it has helped me pave a path of complete self awareness for myself and I instill that into my children daily. To a strong minded individual one can choose two paths that we see so very clearly in today's messed up America: RISK OR FEAR. This documentary is fact no matter how hard it is for you to swallow, just like covid was a "plan"demic and the ukraine bs currently shoved down our throats is a scam. There is only ONE political party and it's called the establishmen-PERIOD. They are controlled by a small group of the world's richest and are on puppet strings....I almost feel sorry for you as your denial of 9/11 posting in february of '22 shows You are the person drive around in their car by themselves double masked with a Ukraine flag as your profile picture on your social media accounts as your virtue signal and salute CNN and MSNBC in your tiny little bubble without any reality of all the world really works. Good Luck to you, you'll need it since you choose FEAR over risk of stepping into independent thought and outside of the safety net of leftist lunatics blindly obedient to this kind of crap that you are displaying in such breathtaking naivety is destroying america in real time now because of the same core minds creating crisis as back in september 2001.... WOKE THE F UP my goodness?

  19. At another point in The Anatomy of a Great Deception, a photograph taken by an NYPD photographer is presented that appears to document smoke pouring from windows on the ground floor of the south World Trade Center tower. David Hooper informs the audience that the picture was only reluctantly released for public viewing and that it shows smoke from an explosion in the South Tower lobby that the Government doesn't want the public to know about. However, other pictures on the same roll of film and released at the same time clearly show that the smoke was actually coming from a burning vehicle in a parking lot in the foreground of the picture presented by Hooper. There was no explosion in the lobby as Hooper falsely claims.

  20. There is also an issue with the version of the Norman Mineta testimony video presented in Anatomy of a Great Deception. The version in David Hooper's film was deceptively edited. The first few words were truncated from an important sentence which made it sound as if Mineta was describing an order issued by Vice President Cheney to stand down jet interceptors and allow Flight 77 to fly into the Pentagon unchallenged. In fact, when all of Mineta's words are heard along with the question he was responding to, it is clear that the order Mineta was talking about was issued by President Bush and it was to do just the opposite... shoot down Flight 77.

  21. One has to ask why the filmmakers would choose to present a doctored version of the Ginny Carr audio recording where it sounds like there was a crashing sound a few seconds before the Flight 11 impact. The original unaltered version of the recording confirms that the second crashing sound was heard AFTER the plane crash.

  22. Anatomy of a Great Deception is the most ironically titled film I have ever had the displeasure of watching all the way through. It consists of nothing more than misinformed opinions, doctored evidence, concealed evidence and deliberate misrepresentations of fact and science all tied together with a maudlin back story and peppered with sanctimonious Bible quotes. If it weren't for the serious nature of the subject matter, the film would be classified as a comedy. The filmmakers should be ashamed of themselves.

  23. The WTC towers or the Pentagon was not hit by the passenger airplanes. The planes on TV were CGIs.
