American born Paul Salo wants to purchase a 747 to recreate the 9/11 scene in the hopes of proving whether or not it was a hoax.

AN AMERICAN businessman bizarrely wants to raise AU$1.8 million to stage a dramatic recreation of the 9/11 terror attacks on the World Trade Centre in New York.

According to The Sun, Paul Salo, who now lives in Thailand, has revealed his plans to purchase a Boeing 747 for the sole purpose of putting it on auto pilot and smashing it into the side of a vacant building, in the countryside at 900km per hour.

The businessman is describing the venture as an “important project”, that will prove conspiracy theories about the attack “once and for all”.

He plans to crowdfund the spectacle, and has already started selling “front-row seats” to the event in Thailand, for the hefty price of AU$5000 each.

In a promotional video for the “reconstruction”, Mr Salo said: “If you doubt anything about 9/11 we want to blast this to smithereens or we want to prove you completely right.

“We’re going to purchase a 747 or equivalent aircraft that’s about to go out of service, we’re going to fill it full of jet fuel, we’re going to purchase a building that’s about to be torn down in the countryside... and we’re going to crash it at 900km per hour into that building.

“If there’s just a smoking hole in the building and nothing happens, you pretty much know it was a hoax, right? ’Cos it’s obvious, right?

“Sure, some people might be upset, but we deserve to find out what happened.”

The businessman, who was born and raised in California, added that he believes the recreation will prove that “similar physics” caused the twin towers to collapse on September 11, 2001.

Nearly 3000 innocent people were killed in the atrocity when two Boeing 767 planes flew into the skyscrapers in New York 15 years ago.

Conspiracy theorists have long claimed the World Trade Centre would not have crumbled so rapidly, attributing the incident to an “inside job”.

Others suggest that the towers would not have caved inward in the same way as a controlled demolition in the event of a “real attack”.

Some of the most prominent 9/11 theories that circulate online also cite officials’ failure to intercept the hijacked planes, as well as the question of how an amateur pilot could perform such a complicated manoeuvre in a commercial plane.

Michael Moore’s documentary Farenheit 9/11 spurred suspicion after links were made between ex-president George Bush’s family, the US Government and the notorious Bin Laden family.

Similarly, cult film Loose Change, another 9/11 documentary, claimed the attacks were planned by US Government insiders.
