@TimeOfYah Yeah, they conveniently found all of the passports intact the same day of the collapse, while people's body parts were pulverized down to unrecognizable pieces.

@Nilguiri when its comes to impact depth kinetic energy is irrelevant, you need momentum and neither planes c130 or 767 are not dense enough to pierce a building, and this one appeared to be old and junk compared to the revolutionary steel design of the wtc towers
-
I wonder why people compare short, concrete building being hit by a small plane at low speeds, to tall, steel buildings being hit by passenger jets at 500 mph?
-
Daaaaaaaam....Those c-130 Planes are fucking huge!!!! and Heavy!!! and barely an impact hole...DAYM!
-
commercial planes can't flight at 500mph at 300 metres, maybe half of that speed (as boeing confirmed) but approaching medium speed on 911 was 971Km/h....

@Nilguiri Good point! This building also looks like a reinforced concrete structure (more comparable to the Pentagon design) vs WTC steel, glass, and sprayed on fireproofing for the steel columns and trusses. The WTC crashes took out significant numbers of steel supports, compromised the fireproofing of much of the remaining supports in that area, took out the sprinkler systems, and as you pointed out the jet fuel & office materials produced intense fires.
Hard to make direct comparisons.

I'm guessing that if you flew 17 C130s into that building simultaneously, it would probably collapse.
Just saying!
-
Why would you think it would collapse?
A 50 tonne C130 at 100 knots has roughly 17 times less energy than a 170 tonne 767 at 500 knots. Plus all the fuel obviously didn't enter the building.

American buidling are only stronger when the need arises. In this situation it arises that we declare american building wtc weaker.
Everybody knows the twin towers were made to withstand planes crashing into them. But oh the planes and the buildings disintegrated but they found the hijackers passports. What a butt load of crap.

shouldn't it have turned to dust after about an hour?
does this mean 9/11 was an inside job?
does this mean over a million civilians in two countries have been bombed to oblivian for nothing?
does this mean the US economy has been decimated deliberately?
answers in order: no, yes, yes and yes
