1 - It absolutely was steel-framed. What imaginary magic construction material do you imagine holds up all that conrete with such large spans - and survives a fire? Unicorn bones?

2 - It was 13 stories tall... not 5.

3 - Several stories of one part of the building collapsed.

North Tower Exploding... [View all] wildbilln864 Aug 2014 OP

Exploding? zappaman Aug 2014 #1

Do you know of a building gyroscope Aug 2014 #3

Do you know of a building William Seger Aug 2014 #36

From what I read gyroscope Aug 2014 #39

what? superbeachnut Aug 2014 #40

Really? gyroscope Aug 2014 #41

No 47-story building has ever been CD'ed, by any method William Seger Aug 2014 #43

The NIST findings can not be trusted cuz...BUSH! zappaman Aug 2014 #44

Cool story bro gyroscope Aug 2014 #45

911 truth lies and says little fires, 911 truth fails on fire superbeachnut Aug 2014 #46

It might collapse? lol gyroscope Aug 2014 #47

"minor office fire" cpwm17 Aug 2014 #48

Once again gyroscope Aug 2014 #49

Now you are back-tracking cpwm17 Aug 2014 #50

Whoops. zappaman Aug 2014 #51

Uhh...where's the collapse? gyroscope Aug 2014 #52

Watch the video. A large section of the building collapsed from the fire alone. n/t cpwm17 Aug 2014 #53

Its still standing gyroscope Aug 2014 #54

If you refuse to watch the video, I can't help you. n/t cpwm17 Aug 2014 #55

Watching the video zappaman Aug 2014 #56

That's true cpwm17 Aug 2014 #57

And yet the building still stands gyroscope Aug 2014 #58

All wrong of course FBaggins Aug 2014 #60

You should do a little studying! zappaman Aug 2014 #61

I don't think so gyroscope Aug 2014 #62

several stories? wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #75

Here's another view and a before picture cpwm17 Aug 2014 #74

was this building sabbat hunter Aug 2014 #93

Wow William Seger Aug 2014 #59

But, but, but, I thought you CT'ers IronGate Aug 2014 #2

wrong again! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #4

Ok. IronGate Aug 2014 #5

here, educate yourself! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #6

Of course it free fell, with the help of all the floors above where the planes hit. IronGate Aug 2014 #7

more nonsense from... wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #8

Ok. IronGate Aug 2014 #9

Speed and rate of collapse gyroscope Aug 2014 #10

It was meant to look like the planes caused the collapses but it failed! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #11

Interesting theory gyroscope Aug 2014 #12

.... IronGate Aug 2014 #34

'It was meant to look like the planes caused the collapses but it failed!" zappaman Aug 2014 #25

Now the Pennsylvania plane was possibly shot down? IronGate Aug 2014 #33

If you think that the speed of collapse is too fast... AZCat Aug 2014 #13

Duration would be zero seconds gyroscope Aug 2014 #14

Have you done any calculations to check your claims? AZCat Aug 2014 #15

For every action...an equal and opposite reaction gyroscope Aug 2014 #16

The resistance doesn't apply quite in the way you seem to think. AZCat Aug 2014 #17

Neglected gravity? gyroscope Aug 2014 #18

I was referring to your claim about "equal and opposite reactions". AZCat Aug 2014 #19

That's not just my 'claim' gyroscope Aug 2014 #20

I'm quite familiar with it. AZCat Aug 2014 #21

Asking for a real world example gyroscope Aug 2014 #22

No, that's not a strawman. AZCat Aug 2014 #23

And you consider yourself gyroscope Aug 2014 #26

you'll be waiting quite a while! n/t wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #29

Yup gyroscope Aug 2014 #63

Again you fail to understand some fundamentals of physics and engineering. AZCat Aug 2014 #76

Here on DU I'm an anonymous internet poster, just like the rest of us. AZCat Aug 2014 #35

Yes you are mistaken gyroscope Aug 2014 #38

Yep, that's the same description where you made the errors. AZCat Aug 2014 #42

I'm still waiting for you to identify your obvious, elementary errors. AZCat Aug 2014 #78

"I'm not the one, however, making mistakes about fundamental physics concepts." Yes you are! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #65

Thankfully Bill I am well aware of fundamental physics concepts. AZCat Aug 2014 #77

well you believe that I'm sure. wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #79

I understand we will continue to disagree. AZCat Aug 2014 #80

oh man thats a hoot! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #82

Again with the same mistake. AZCat Aug 2014 #83

well let's see. there's your "calculations".... wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #84

That's not the mistake I pointed out. AZCat Aug 2014 #85

over two thousand that are on record. wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #87

There are over 2 million engineers in the US zappaman Aug 2014 #88

how many of those registered architects... wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #91

How many scientists have vocally endorsed gravity? zappaman Aug 2014 #92

why so few superbeachnut Aug 2014 #89

It doesn't matter how many you have if their arguments are not valid. AZCat Aug 2014 #90

And if you're counting engineers like "missing jolt" Szamboti in that number... AZCat Aug 2014 #86

the symmetry claim means you don't understand what symmetry is superbeachnut Aug 2014 #81

I thought the towers fell into their own footprints? cpwm17 Aug 2014 #24

you thought? wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #30

Obviously you didn't understand my obvious sarcasm cpwm17 Aug 2014 #31

but I did! n/t wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #32

fantasy silent explosives destroy the WTC, 911 truth fails for 13 years superbeachnut Aug 2014 #27

The camera was half a mile away gyroscope Aug 2014 #28

Excuses from 911 truth for spreading lies, and now the Gish Gallop comes superbeachnut Aug 2014 #37

Why, oh why WovenGems Aug 2014 #64

It was definitely a conspiracy! wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #66

Data WovenGems Aug 2014 #67

You tell me gyroscope Aug 2014 #69

BS, Operations Northwoods, never done superbeachnut Aug 2014 #70

Wrong gyroscope Aug 2014 #71

It is proof our government stops silly plans - oops superbeachnut Aug 2014 #72

19, give or take a few. n/t wildbilln864 Aug 2014 #73

It was a conspiracy by 19 terrorists superbeachnut Aug 2014 #68
