Notice how the walls tip over, not straight down.
Yes the unsupported walls tip over, just the same as WTC 1 and WTC 2 .The floors pancake, unsupported walls tip over. So simple even a Truther can understand it.
Well... maybe not that simple.
This is probably to complex for a Truther to understand.

You forget the effects of wind resistance on lighter objects. They will be projected by the initial force then as soon as the wind resistance is greater than the forward momentum gravity takes over. This is why the downward "trail" is not straight but buffeted sideways by wind resistance.
The analysis also forgets about collisions which can cause objects to bounce/break off at different angles.

I'll scale the width of the tower and show all of my work. I'll even try to find a clearer video.

Hey Psik, why do all of these smart people keep talking about wind resistance, even though the object is
accelerating faster than gravity can allow with, or without wind resistance?

I think someone should rebuild a tower, and fly a plane into it. Just to see what happens. It would have to fall just like those 2 did, right? I'm sure if it didn't, there'd be a million and one excuses as to why not.edit on 14-6-2011 by MidnightSunshine because: spelling

But that is NOT what happens, you had 15 floors collapsing onto the floors below them - not collapsing onto 95 floors.
You really have no idea how things actually work
