I am from Scotland SO not my government also my first job was in the DESIGN/DRAWING office of a structural steelwork company so I do KNOW what I am talking about
Explain how the steel vaporized and blew away in the wind..like most of it too.
Steelman lol.

Or you can just observe the way the building was destroyed
Watch to the end of that clip for the slomo.

That looks very much like it started from where the damage was rather than the base...
You know, every time I've seen the towers fall, and it's a lot, I could swear they're falling from the base (both of them).
Common sense to me says that the only collapse should have occurred from point of impact upward, and to be expected to believe that jet fuel (that which didn't burn up on impact) somehow miraculously made it down to ground level, where there it somehow magically ignited to such a degree, it managed to melt the base in almost perfect uniformity in order to initiate collapse, not just once but twice, is ludicrous.
In summary, and from someone who still remembers the events of the day, it stinks.
Your government and military lies
We clearly use different dictionaries
From one Scot to another, you are nothing but a haverer, sir

Good to know I've got a fan

Only because the building had started falling into it's footprint first, the impact and jet fuel does not account for that

I don't know for sure, but I'm going to assume that you accepted the official line, it is that acceptance which means your perception is automatically influenced and you're going to see what you want to see.

Ok give your reasons re points 1 & 2 first of all.
I will give my answers to those.

Hold your horses there Gonzalez
You still haven't addressed my points or made any comment on the words of John Skilling I posted earlier.

I agree unless they held the camera upside down sorry couldn't help it. I had to say it.

The first three points are easy as for the rest never got into the 911 stuff enough to know what your talking about.
but your first point the building held up as long as the damage it sustained couldn't be overcome by gravitational forces. Or in simle English it stayed up until the damage to the structure became to great.
point 2 The rate of collapse will be 9.81 meters (32.2 ft) per second every second minus any resistance on the way down. Dropping a ball off the twin towers would have taken it say 417 meter to the top . Means are object would take 9.23 seconds to hit the ground. I'm not sure the height the damage occurred but we could do the math and figure that out as well anything over that would be caused by the resistance from the building.
Point 3 I'm assuming you mean how hard would it be to hit the building? Wouldn't think it to be hard at all the building was a lot bigger than a runway and planes manage to hit that ok.
