I mean, it either takes buku amounts of explosives or it only takes the failing of one floor to bring buildings down. Why the double
standard?
Well, Griff, this isn’t a double standard. It is two separate standards entirely.
The difference being a matter of precision. When a demolition company wants to bring down a building using explosives, they don’t want parts of
said building flying all over and causing damage to the surrounding structures.
A runaway collapse due to a structural failure can cause exactly that to happen. All of the buildings surrounding the WTC towers suffered severe
damage. Several of them, suffered from varying amounts of structural collapse.

Also, if it only takes a floor at the top 20% of a building failing, why don't demolitions experts use this method now?
I think that is exactly what they do. The trick is to get the debris into a nice little pile and not all over the neighbor’s lawn, so to speak.

Demolitions companies have to be very precise in what they do. {I agree – H.R.} So one story failing could not and should not bring buildings down
on themselves following chaos theory, finite structural analysis and other known engineering theories.
Please elaborate on how “chaos theory, finite structural analysis and other known engineering theories” support your contention. I don’t quite
understand how you think these apply to your theory, and honestly, I am not sure that you understand that either. So if you can explain in your own
words, how these support your position, maybe we can figure this out. You can use formulas, math, whatever.

It not only happened once (which is something like one in a trillion chance, from Jones's report, I haven't done the statistical math myself) but
happened three times in one day? I think I'm going to start a demolitions company and have this method as my method of demolition.
Won’t it get kind of expensive buying those airplanes and flying them into buildings?
