I have to admit, the first couple of times I saw that I thought the same thing. It wasn't until after I saw a pretty cool 3D physics/material simulation done by some university and another video of a jet fighter crashing into a reinforced concrete wall (like the kind used to protect Nuclear Power plants) that it became pretty obvious that tons of aluminum can easily be nearly-vaporized by a high-speed crash and explosion. I'll try to find those links, as I didn't immediately see them in the previous thread.
Edit: Found them:
