    AUSSIE! AUSSIE! AUSSIE!

    coincidence?

    Discussion in 'The Lounge' started by coral reef, May 7, 2007.

    the secret behind the number 11

    Pretty Chilling - read to the bottom. Try it out.
    If you are a sceptical person - still read on as it's actually very interesting!!
    This is actually really freaky!! (Mainly the end part, but read it all first)

    1) New York City has 11 letters
    2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.
    3) Ramsin Yuseb has 11 letters. (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993)
    4) George W Bush has 11 letters.

    This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets interesting:
    1) New York is the 11th state.
    2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.
    3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11
    4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6 + 5 = 11
    5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 =11
    6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911.

    Sheer coincidence..?

    Read on and make up your own mind:

    1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254.
    2 + 5 + 4 = 11
    2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year.
    3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.
    4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.

    Now this is where things get totally eerie:

    The most recognized symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Koran, the Islamic holy book:

    "For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."

    That verse is number 9.11 of the Koran.


    Unconvinced about all of this still ..?



    Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:


    Open Microsoft Word and do the following:

    1. Type in upper case Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.
    2. Highlight the Q33 NY.
    3. Change the font size to 48.
    4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS……………………

    What do you think now????

    Interesting but shouldn't it be two planes? There are two pieces of paper (my interpretation) in the wingdings bit.

    Isn't the Star of David the symbol for Israel, not America?

    It's just symbols and no real importance should be placed by them in my opinion.

    To be honest, you can find any number like this repeated if you just look for it. The number of things about 666 for example - the total number of all the digits on a roulette wheel etc. If you start looking for one number, you'll find it everywhere. You could have totalled those numbers in anyway you wanted.
    Also, the passage in Quoran reminds me of all those from Nostradamus. Do you know that Nostradamus also wrote a cookery book and a book about make-up? This is the logic of womens magazines. The eagle was also the symbol of Alexander the great and the nazi's - not to mention and Egyptian god. Think how many times over the past two millenia the Arabian countries have been invaded by countries fitting the description 'land of the eagle'. Sadam Hussein was only in power because of the last botched British invasion of Iraq!
    Why did you add the date 9/11 as 9 plus 1 plus 1, without the year, but 3.11.4 including the year? Why was the word 'city' added to the end of New York? What does the 'w' in Bush's name stand for? Why not calculate the date of the London bombing 7/7=14?
    Seriously, this is selective perception! You could make exactly the same argument for the number 2 just by adding the 1 and 1 of 11! 2, the sinister number out to eat your babies!

    I am sorry but I tend to agree with Onoria on this one, although it was a very interesting read coral.

    It's just a fun lark, and absolutely nothing to be taken seriously.
    Sounds regrettably like one of those stupid YouTube spam comments, though.

    Yeah, but it has 13 characters. Why count letters and not characters?

    We might call him that, but his middle name is Walker, which increases the total to 16 letters.

    Yes.

    Actually, there were 911 days between the two incidents. It actually happened 912 days after 9/11. Close though.

    Uh . . . no it's not. That's not in the Qur'an. And you don't cite the Koran like that. There is some confusion as the to the "number" of the suras, so you cite the Qur'an using the name of the sura, and then the verse.

    And yeah, someone just made up that verse anyway.

    I think that the flight numbers for the planes that crashed on 9/11 were UA175, AA11, AA77, and UA93. You notice how none of those start with a Q? Or end with 33?

    Yeah, if you type "Q33" into Word, you get something that looks like a plane and two towers.

    However, that's definitely just a coincidence. As long as you have those symbols in a program, there will be something that you can type to produce them.



    The problem is, stuff like this circulates, and it's either coincidences or people have just made things up (see the Qur'an quote). It only takes a little checking to realize that all of this is just a fluke, but people don't bother.

    I've been suckered by these things a couple of times, but I hope that I'm more skeptical now.

    Talk about raining on someone's parade! lol, yeah, it's a touch eerie but only if you don't look into it like we are all rocket scientists.

    I'm skeptical but I also believe that there is something bigger and better than us out there right now laughing it's head off at us while we disect this thread!
