Magog you have been very patient with replying to questions and you seem to know pretty much about physics so why don’t we cut to the chase and YOU tell everyone exactly what it would take a demolition Company to bring down the World trade center into its own footprint in virtual free-fall in the same amount of time as both towers did.
If you are HONEST and up to snuff you will know that ANY uncompromised floors below what you describe would have impeded the 'free-fall" and added time to the total collapse, and you would also have to answer why those intact floor would not deviate the path of falling debris so that it did NOT fall in its own footprint.
Keep in mind that the initial blasts from the planes hitting was enough to shatter windows in all the buildings in the area. So your missing glass ejections are no proof at all that it wasn’t aided in some way. remember the conspiracy is that this was meant to look like planes did it.
I would really like to hear from you what it would take to (professionally) duplicate what we saw on September 11th, 2001. I say it can’t be done without perfectly timed blast to shear key areas all the way down the building for it to fall as fast as it did. I think we already have testimony to the collapse rate being “unimpeded”
For the people in the room that are so wise in the ways of science that they have not studied…
The WTC was 110 stories and just under 1370ft tall. From some random internet source, I got that the towers were damaged by the airliner strikes: North Tower: From 92 to 98 South Tower: 78 to 84. So the median of that is 88th floor.
How high is the 88th floor?
110/88 = 1370/H (Where H is the sought height)
H = 1370*(88/110) = 1096ft
So how long does it take (a frictionless freefall lead ball) to fall 1000 feet (H) since we know that the top ended up above ground level?
g is the acceleration (note that it continually speeds up!) at 9.8m/s^2 = 32.15ft/s^2
The formula is: t = (SquareRoot( 2*H/g))
Solving for a frictionless object in freefall, the fall time would be 7.88seconds.
Now isn’t that a coincidence!!! Mark me down as SHOCKED!
It must be some Illuminati conspiracy that GRAVITY WORKS!
And don’t you dare go bugging me with a second here or there… We are measuring it with a micrometer from a video and installing it with a sledge hammer here.
Again, I had no idea what the answer was going to be when I started this post, I just worked through it as presented, and let the answer unveil itself. I picked the median damaged floor as an average floor that was damaged by the strike, no other reason. To my knowledge, we have no idea which floor failed first in either building, nor what building the previously referenced “8 seconds” was timed from, so 88 is as good an estimate as I need for sledgehammer installation of a “hunting license” (it’s a Physics thing…) estimate.
From my experience with real-world processes, I would have expected a number more like 10-15s for the towers to crash. Gravity is an harsh teacher.
Ok I can see you are being obtuse again so here are the questions you can’t/won’t/haven’t answered.
The fires in 1 and 2 were started bc they were hit by planes - 7 wasn’t so what caused the fires there??
and how exactly did BBC manage to report WTC7 20 mins BEFORE it happened.
There has never ever been an example of buildings collapsing bc of fire but on 911 3 fell at freefall - how so?
2000 architects and engineers have questioned the official story - are they all 4th graders as well?
Why has no-one ever been charged - not even OBL.
Where are the ‘‘indestructible’’ black boxes and what was found on them?
Except this lead ball had 300k tons of steel and concrete between it and the ground but it still managed to hit the ground in 9 secs
I’m just wondering if people are aware the amount of work required in setting up explosives to bring down a building in controlled demolition/collapse?
So you want me to believe that CIA encourage an Islamic group of terrorist to fly planes into WTC knowing that with enough fuel to heat the steel and concrete enough for the building to collapse in on itself?
Who are engineers that calculated such scenario?
And don’t think I haven’t noticed how you change the subject and stopped talking about amount of steel after I posted those pictures.
I really like if you explain why you believed in such false premise to began with when simple google search was all that was requited…unless you think Google is in on it too.
Nevermind a plan like that would have had to take an enormous amount of people of which the “secret” was bound to get out before it could have even been executed.
The whole premise that it was an “inside job” is just silliness.
Yeah, but did you see the cinematography of the fake moon landing? That was some advanced stuff for back in the day! All of those people involved kept quiet, too. I would have at least expected the costume and make-up department to have spilled the beans.
who did it I think is up for debate. But it was NIST who concluded that planes could demolish buildings more efficiently than a controlled demolition?

Nope still waiting for someone to explain how a lead ball dropped on the top of 300000 tons of steel and concrete can hit the ground in 8 secs???
Like I said before ‘‘I know I know nothing’’ but I am prepared to ask dumb questions to find out - Unforfunately no-one here knows anything either - lots of charlatans pretending to be engineers but not one person can answer even one of my 4th grade q’s LOL
