Did you design the twin towers?

Twenty five years later and a gabillion videos of exactly how those buildings were constructed. He's never thought to look up if those buildings were constructed in any unusual manner for the time period.

Nobody disputes that. It just seems highly unbelievable that both buildings fell in perfect demolition style after a plane hit the upper section. If anything, the top half should have fallen but not the entire building.
Absolutely no sign of demolition, on WTC 2 you can see the exact moment of structural failure when the perimeter columns buckle.

Still makes my blood boil…after getting over the shock every time I see these videos. And yet, it is like an entire generation just doesn’t get it. That day will be one of my dying memories and will live in infamy.

Ahh the good ole days of 4x3 480i video. Very few HD recordings were made back then because high definition was still relatively new and expensive. Heck even digital broadcasting was still relatively new and most back channel feeds were still analog.
Digital tape was just starting to get on the mainstream market with miniDV and DV tapes bringing the price down to reasonable levels. It took Sony about 10 years to go from a D1 tape in 1986 to miniDV in 1996.
But every one still had a VCR capable of playing VHS tapes that had the ability to record at best maybe 240 lines of resolution with tech from the 1970’s. But most TV were still relatively small at maybe 19-25 inches. Unless you were fortunate to have a projection TV.
That is why the past looks so blurry.
At least now with some video editing programs, decent transfer equipment, and the help of AI, you can clean and enhance some photos and videos to nearly HD quality. It might take awhile to process.
