Or you could just get an engineering degree.

I'm not even making a claim about WTC7, I'm just telling you that in a design like that if you lose a floor, buckling will be your failure mode. And buckling doesn't happen gradually.

Good grief, this is so stupid.

The dag gum architect of the buildings was trying to call the police and tell them the buildings were going to collapse just like they did, based on their design!!!!!!!

I have a couple of degrees and one is in engineering. I've been practicing over 25 years.

If you look at the video in the OP the evidence outlined is presented by many experts in the field of structural, mechanical, and civil engineering, material science, general physics, chemistry, etc.

Here’s my question: why did they blow it up? The motive I don’t understand


For insurance money and to hide incriminating information.

I need to put that as a slogan on my firms street sign.

More sillinesss. It doesn’t matter how many columns you have. They still fail by fracture (hint:they are in compression). Also you need to consider load paths. If one column fails, the two adjacent columns become overloaded. Then they fail. Now four columns are overloaded. The. they fail, and you have 16 overloaded columns. Not to mention the amount of overload grows worth the square, too.

Fact: thermite dust was found all over the WTC site by private individuals and the USGS.

What the hell is thematic material doing at the WTC site?

I do not follow what the assertion is here? We blew up an additional building because the towers had been hit?

This is too stupid to debate. Why not say “why don’t they use 757s to knock down the Calcasieu Marine tower i. Lake Charles last weekend?”

Bldg 7 doesn't fit the narrative.

So if you believe building 7's sympathy collapse, you can believe it all.

If you don't believe building 7, you can't also believe the official narrative.

That's why building 7 is ignored and left to the dust bin of history by the MSM....if it doesn't fit....the whole story collapses.

Good story but zero math to back it up. I've showed you a picture of an adjacent building that was more damaged than Building 7. It did not free fall collapse. It behaved like you would expect. Terrible damage where free falling debris hit, terrible damage from fire but in area where there was no falling debris or fire, it was still standing. I sure wish NIST would release their finite element model for peer review.

I understand the psychologic need to think that the collapse of Building 7 was not the result of a conspiracy other than falling debris form WTC 1 & 2. The thought of Building 7 coming down on purpose opens up rabbit holes that no one wants to go down. But for me the evidence is overwhelming that the free fall collapse of Building 7 is not the result of WTC 1&2 falling debris.

Why not suggest the contractor that demo’ed the Calcasieu Marine tower in LC last week should have just flown 757s into it?

Right. Because the narrative is Building 7 collapsed from falling WTC 1&2 debris and office furniture fire.

Pretty dumb, huh?

Thermite is commonly used in specialist welding applications

None required. I’m sorry you can’t do simple geometry or load paths.
