How did WTC 7 land mostly in it's own footprint from a natural collapse from fire and asymmetrical damage?

It was a two faced reply that I guess he was smart enough
No tricky enough to censor himself before the world could see.
If you are even close to being honest you will address this post with
the humility you should.
ATS deserves better

...and yes I censor myself. I know that if I don't the ATS moderators will probably yank the post. It's their board, not mine. What does THAT have to do with the question I asked?

Wow, you make three points and manage to get all three wrong :-
a) Loud bangs do not automatically equate to "bomb blasts".
b) WTC 1,2&7 did not fall in their own footprints. Have a look at the collateral damage.
c) WTC 1,2&7 did not fall at freefall speed. Please show me proof they did.
Well the, maybe I will respond:
a) Numerous witnesses - including many FIREMEN and COPS who would know a little bit about bombs - described the blasts as BOMB blasts or being like bombs going off. All liars, right? DId you know that many police departments have a bomb squad? I'm sure they do NO training.
b) The actually did. They fell straight the f**k down. Watch the videos again The collateral damage was done by debris flying off in all directions as the BULK of the buildings were falling straight the f**k down into their own foundations.
c) Yes they did. Numerous architects/engineers have posted numerous videos and explanations comparing their analyses to the acceleration and velocity of gravity, and have concluded as much. Google it. There is proof all over the place.
Basically you're someone who can't believe that someone would pre-plan such an event, so you just bash everyone you don't agree with and make up reasons to try to make yourself sound reasonable. Your assertions can be easily refuted a thousand times over.

Hello DANBONEZ
Who gives a flying Norseman
Your numbers just don't add up.
Do some research and show us your PHD in MATH.

That means if he wants to he can just make stuff up
there is a link to a google search which turned up over 50,000 examples back there on the thread that says how the term pull has been used and since when

No it doesn't. Being a truther does not make you invulnerable to bias and lying. The opposite also is not a binding contract.
The thing is, whenever I google something about this, I get 50,000 results of speculation by truthers and other people. A point is not made valid simply by being repeatedly speculated on by some thousands of truthers. It just makes it repeatedly wrong (or still unsolved).
It's like that whole 10% brain myth. It's perpetuated CONSTANTLY, and that one is demonstrably false.

step away from the the pipe there buddy
It may have a crack in it
and demonstrate where Im wrong
as you so never do

Hi dan,
And exactally what pipe would that be?
Do you have a source???
Would that be, The your thread died pipe.???
And now your here seeking retrobution like an exciled Norseman
Get back on topic and Pull IT
Your math has nothing to do with How Larry gave the orders to a high level New York City fireman.
Please please stay close to the point of the post.
Btw did anyone hand you an empty paper tube and you misstaked it with a relay wand?edit on 22-3-2012 by longjohnbritches because: (no reason given)

references I sure do:
any one of your posts
in your case "pulling" it is a phrase thAT has nothing to do with buildings
If there was a problem with my math you would have shown your work by now
whats long and hard on a xian?
grade two
where they teach you when doing math critiques to show your work

Hooper you obviously have no idea what 'in it's own footprint' means.
If the outer walls stay mostly inside it's own footprint, then that is the definition of in its own footprint.
For the outer walls to fall inwards like that takes controlled implosion demolition, period.

[/quoteOh did you mean the guy that rigged theexplosives???
No. That is just a definition that you made up. Nor have you demonstrated that any of the buildings that collapsed on 9/11 meet that definition with any rigor whatsoever. The meaning of "in", I hope, we don't have to debate. A building's footprint is the surface area it occupies at the ground floor. Very clearly, it is beyond debate that none of the buildings that fell on 9/11 did so within their own footprint.
For the outer walls to fall inwards like that takes controlled implosion demolition, period.
That is simply a grievous error. I have already answered this fallacious allegation on more than one occaision, and once in this thread already. There is no way for the buildings to collapse without a substantial part of the perimeter walls winding up on top. If it falls to one side, the opposite side will wind up on top,, etc.
Please go ahead and describe any collapse sequence AT ALL that will result in a rubble pile without exterior walls dominating the top of the rubble pile.
I will tell you what son, once you tell us the meaning of RIGOR we can address your hypostasis. Untill then who the heck would even know what the heck you are bableing on about.
Where the sams hell did you get that from some damn fool website or fradulant report???

Oh maybe that's the guy that snuck in with the eplosives. So then larry had something to PULl IT with???edit on 22-3-2012 by longjohnbritches because: for the real reason
pull down vt 1 a : DEMOLISH, DESTROY < the wreckers pulled the building down >.
Well, I did some very basic Google searching and on the website for Controlled Demolition, Inc. (www.controlled-demolition.com...) I found evidence that DOES link the terms "pull" and "pulled" to controlled, explosive demolition.
At this link (www.controlled-demolition.com...) the company describes:
"Utilizing a total of 137 pounds of linear shaped charges and 50 lbs of dynamite “kicker charges”, CDI worked in only the partial basement to the west, the Lobby Level and 4th floor of the structure. Placed in over 400 locations, the shaped charges were sequentially initiated over a period of 5.4 seconds, working from southwest to northeast through the structure. Following the seemingly endless 2.6 second natural pause in the non-electric initiation system, the structural charges detonated on cue, allowing the southwest wing of the structure to fail first, creating the desired lateral “pull” on the north and east curtain walls."
At this link (www.controlled-demolition.com...) the company describes:
"Approximately 2,700 lb. of explosives were placed in 2,918 holes on six levels of the structure. CDI’s delayed detonation of charges, the product of 50 years of explosives demolition experience, pulled the massive warehouse structure away from a U.S. Post Office facility only 18 -ft away without damage."
Also, here is a PBS/Nova interview of Stacey Loizeaux, who at the time was 26 years old and had worked for Controlled Demolition, Inc. since the age of 15.
Link: (www.pbs.org...)
Quote:
"NOVA: A common misconception is that you blow buildings up. That's not really the case, is it?
Stacy Loizeaux: No. The term "implosion" was coined by my grandmother back in, I guess, the '60s. It's a more descriptive way to explain what we do than "explosion." There are a series of small explosions, but the building itself isn't erupting outward. It's actually being pulled in on top of itself. What we're really doing is removing specific support columns within the structure and then cajoling the building in one direction or another, or straight down."
At this link: (www.seattlepi.com...) Mark Loizeaux, president of Controlled Demolition Inc., says this of the Seattle Kingdome demolition back in 2000:
"The roof did its job, the gravity engine worked. It provided the energy we needed to pull the columns inward."
