Its funny how on Youtube everybody is a demolitions expert.

@butanerios no i know alot about physics. you just dont use your eye's is all. all the stuff falling off the tower is falling much faster then the tower its selff (just woke up cant think to well) lol

[butanerios]

@movieman175 and not all demolitions go as planned. Maybe some charges didn't get set off? If you truly think this building collapsed on itself, straight down, at such a great rate of speed you know nothing about physics

[butanerios]

@mlrs84 Controlled demolitions must strategically eliminate key structural components in order for buildings to fall straight down. Support structures on the bottom part of the building are what need to be eliminated, not on the upper floors like where the planes hit. Anyway one of Newtons laws states that every action has an equal and opposite reaction. How can 15 floors destroy 85? The 85 will exert the same force on the 15 as the 15 does on them. The 15 would get destroyed before the 85.

@movieman175 I agree completely. The buildings tore themselves apart in the collapse. People might say that it looked like an explosive demolition, but to them I ask "how were they supposed to collapse if no explosives were used?". In any way an explosive demolition is not done by blowing each floor, it's done by removing key structural components and let gravity do the rest. This was exactly the same, but instead of explosives, planes and fires weakened the steel to breaking point!

@mlrs84 yes and the spire shows that it was not bombs cuz if every floor was being blown up everything would have been blown out and nothing would be standing cuz every floor would be blown up so nothing could be standing after it but a collapes will leave a spire

[mlrs84]

@movieman175 True, except it's parts of the core standing in the north tower too. It's called "the spire"...

Systematically removed your ass.

[movieman175]

in the south tower the outside of the tower collapsed faster then the inside of the tower this is why you see the core still standing or a moment and in the north tower the core fell first so the core fell faster then the outside of the tower this is why you see parts of the outside of the north tower still standing for a moment in the videos

[IExposeMormonism]

you have the  best video. We clearly see the core standing. Then it too is systematically removed
