Also I am looking at wtc7.net and am trying to find exactly where this 'gash' was on the building, On these photos, you can't see it, yet you do see damage on a corner of the building:

Your confused I think. Larry Silverstein's conversation with a commander from the FDNY (he never mentioned Nigro by name) was never documented with any time line.
Interesting Ultima, you haven't read a page of it and you have already dismissed it.
You see your mistake here ultima? You said that the firefighters were inside the building yet the report you posted stated that the firefighters were OUTSIDE.

Woah, so it is. A year old thread. Do you have the original link to the video of that day? Or any other different videos of the same damage?

So many unknowns - that's where conspiracy thrives (real or not).

1. Chief Nigro stated that he evacuated the firemen out of the building without talking to anyone, that means before the call to silverstein was made. Oh and by the way at that time Chief Nigro was the fire commander.

2. Well its very simple to dismiss the report when NIST is not able to make a complete and accurate report becasue they did not recover any steel for testing.

3. Yes firefighters were in the building, please read the psot again, maybe this line will help.
"According to the account of a firefighter who walked the 9th floor along the south side following the collapse of WTC 1, the only damage to the 9th floor facade occurred at the southwest corner."
So there was not mistake, you just misread it.
From the FEMA report. Firefighters that were in building 7 reported some damage to 10 floors 8-18.
According to the account of a firefighter who walked the 9th floor along the south side following the collapse of WTC 1, the only damage to the 9th floor facade occurred at the southwest corner. According to firefighters' eyewitness accounts from outside of the building, approximately floors 8-18 were damaged to some degree. Other eyewitness accounts relate that there was additional damage to the south elevation.
We also have the video of the hardhat workers coming out of the evacuated zone stating the building is coming down.
Also we have fist reponders stating that they heard the countdown for building 7 over their radios.

What? Nigro stated clearly that to his best recollection he did not contact Silverstein.
Ultima, for someone that claims to do more research than most...
Yes, and? there were MANY that were working in that area told that the building was in jeopardy. This is the reason for the "COLLAPSE ZONE".

1. Chief Nigro stated the he did not talk to anyone before he evacuated the firemen, that means it was befoe the call to Silverstein, so when the incident command decided to PULL IT they meant the building becasue the firmen were already out of the building.

Do you have any examples where a fire dept was pulled from a building, and a demolitions team was asked to blow up a building? You make it sounds as if that is standard protocol.

I believe if you look up regulations, fire marshalls and fire chiefs have the authority to demo buildings. Specailly if they believe its going to casue damage or loss of life.
Originally posted by Disclosed but ok to have civilians with explosives to enter? I definately would like to see an example of ANYTHING like that.

I guess you never heard of rescue firemen who have the knowledge and equipment to cut beams to rescue people?
