All three buildings fell into there own foot print, including building 7.

Thats a lie........

All the buildings around badly damaged

Marriott Hotel was crushed, first by South Tower than the North

Deutsche Bank (across street from South Tower) had side facing it slashed open

WTC 7 had south side facing North Tower ripped open for 20 stories

World Financial Center 3 had debris lodged in face

90 West St was set on fire by debris from South Tower - burned for 2 days

WTC 7 collapsed on 30 West Broadway across a highway from it

Maybe should read this - Study of damage suffered by the buildings around WTC

You're using cheap semantics to make accusations of intellectual dishonesty.... which exposes your own intellectual dishonesty.

All three buildings did indeed "fall into their own footprint" according to the industry standards. There is always debris that falls outside the actual footprint and there is sometimes collateral damage. When is the last time 110-story skyscrapers more than 1,400 feet tall were demolished? Never? Well then you have nothing to compare these demolitions to. Considering their sheer size, these CD's were quite impressive. There was clearly a different type of technology used on the main towers because of this.... they exploded and disintegrated from the top down like a fuse on a stick of dynamite....at very near free fall speed.

But as a natural collapse from fire? With only a few floors burning and ready to go out from oxygen starvation? Preposterous and absurd, just like every aspect of the OS.

I don't think you know what "falling on its own footprint" means.

Did Marriott Hotel have total structual failure?

Did Deutsche Bank have total structural failure?

Did WFC3 have total structural failure?

Did 90west have total structural failure?

Note: I am assuming you know what "structural failure means"

There was no 20 story ripped hole by twin tower's debris. Key words "by twin tower's debris" . And the picture could have easily been photo shopped.

Weak OSer,,very weak.

Please excuse my last post. I totally misunderstood "thedman's" argument. My fault.

If you want to really damage a building ,impact the lower floors not the top or install hundreds of charges.

You seem to have lost the plot.

We are talking about a passport.

I haven't lost the plot . YOU ASKED ME A QUESTION BASED ON MY SIGNATURE!!.

HERE IT IS: "You still have never specified how big and how hard something has to be in order to destroy the towers. Your signature should include that. Would John Holmes be capable of destroying the towers ? "

Which I answered. I think you have a bit of Dementia.

We're talking about the actual collapse not collateral damage. If you want to believe the OS story you can. The videos I've seen clearly show the foundation of all three buildings were compromised. No steel structure can collapse at free fall without the foundation being compromised. These building were hit by planes well above their foundations. Building 7 was on fire, which doesn't compromise a foundation. All three buildings were on fire, which again the fire wasn't hot enough to compromise the foundation nor weaken the concrete that the steel was set in.

I think I've had enough understanding of foundations and structures since I do teach mechanical, architectural and steel structures in CAD. I don't claim to be an architect, but I've taken courses on statics, and strength of material including metallurgy. So from my stand point and from what I've seen, it's really improbable for these buildings to fall the way they did. A pancake collapse would meet with some resistance from the bottom floors, because those support beams were not compromised. Add into the concrete elevator shaft, a good portions of that should have been left standing.

That's my opinion, you have yours. I'm not here to debate this thing, it's been debated on this site to death. We have structural engineers, physics professors, architects and pilots, who disagree with the collapse and the ability to control airplanes at that altitude.

With all the questions surrounding 911, don't you think our government deserves to give the public an unbiased
review of the collapse of these buildings. It's the most devastating attack on America's soil but the books on the investigation have been closed and questions are being ignored. The debris was quickly hauled away and melted down. There is no criminal case in history that would destroy evidence that quickly. Enough said.

No you have definatly lost the plot. you responded to a post dealing with the passport. Try and keep up.

Back to your signature.

signature:

2 ALUMINUM JETLINERS WEIGHING 392TONS(fuel included) CANNOT PULVERIZE 3 STEEL/CONCRETE TOWERS WEIGHING 1 200 000TONS...swallow that OSers

The 3 steel/concrete towers weighing 1,200,000 tons were pulverised because 3 steel/concrete towers weighing 1,200,000 tons fell on them. In other words they were destroyed by their own mass. The aircraft only started the chain reaction.

Now all you have to do is prove something weighing 1,200,000 Tons can not destroy something weighing 1'200,000 tons.

Good luck.

Seem to have problems with reading comprehension

You understand what "in its own footprint" means ......

It means the debris from the building collapse remains within the confines of the building area

WTC towers were 209 ft per side

Yet debris from North tower slashed open WTC 7 which was over 300 ft north of it

It also hit World Finance Center 3 which is over 400 ft

Thats some footprint.......

Marriott Hotel was completely crushed - guess the debris did not understand was not supposed to land on it

Same thing with Deutsche Bank (130 Liberty) and 90 West which were hit by the debris from South Tower

Also said that the concrete elevator would resist the collapse

If had done any research would have found the stairways and elevator shafts were lined with sheet rock

One of the reasons towers collapsed as they did - lightweight construction allowed aircraft to penetrate deep
inside and damge core columns/stairways/elevators

A T T E N T I O N

I think we ALL may have gone astray from the plot. Remember the topic? "Why a 'controlled demolition?"

That is the topic. Going forward from here, please keep your post on topic and not about each other.

Thank you.

What case are you trying to make? How come the last sotries of a building that had 2 skyscrapers falling on it, are still standing and a building which took damage from some debries and fieres collapsed down to its last floor? Yeah the pictures are not helping your case.
