Are you suggesting that a fire really did jump through the air over an entire football field

You think 300 feet is a long way away from a collapsing 1400 foot tall skyscraper? Do you honestly think that the entire mass of that skyscraper was retained in it's own footprint as it fell?

Videos say otherwise.

So we are going with flaming debris brought down the skyscraper. Sounds retarded and we had a couple of pictures shared in this thread of the debris. I didn't see many flames in the picture. But ok, I'll grant you that flaming debris caused a fire to break out in building 7. Now imagine my surprise waking up this morning to find out that that building burning in the OP still hasn't collapsed.

I guess Kuwait is just better at building skyscrapers than the US? The building in Kuwait was actually hit by a high explosive fragmenting warhead weighing between 30 and 50 kgs. Not just a drone. The impact of this will have been far greater than falling, flaming debris. Yet, it still stands. Go figure.

Yep, Social Security offices in Kuwait, some in the Ukraine, everywhere.

Truth be known, corrupt democrats turned a retirement program for American workers into an ATM for the world (hint: the Federal Reserve says - hold my beer)

President Trump has made a lot of progress fixing this but the enormity of the fraud and corruption is startling.

And the corrupt UniParty people just keep running for office. They enter Congress poor as church mice and in no time they're insanely rich. Even that airhead Ilhan Omar is now a multi-millionaire worth $ 30-$40 million.

Sickening actually.

Trump / Vance 2026 - They're clawing us out of the mess Joe Biden left us - the corrupt democrats are fighting them

No, what you don't answer are perfect legitimate questions, like the ones I asked you about shipping yesterday, which you would wouldn't answer because you knew you had been punked and had been made a fool of.

My money says that you're really not this fricking stupid in real life. I think this is just your internet schtick to get attention.

Do you think we’re just talking about office supplies on fire?

Brother, WTC7 had seven exterior columns severed and fires started on ten floors. There were pieces of debris that were several tons falling from a quarter mile tall skyscraper.

WTC 3, WTC 7, the north bridge from Winter Garden to WTC 1, and St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church were all completely demolished solely by falling debris from the towers.

You’re comparing apples to oranges in terms of force.

Let this thread serve as a reminder that in real life fires don't cause skyscrapers to collapse into their own footprint. Nor do plane strikes.


I mean it would have been so easy to use explosives on the buildings. Anyone that has ever been associated with doing an implosion knows you can call up an order one in just a few hours. No visible wires or explosives are required. No long prep work or internal wall removals. Just put a couple of small fire cracker sized devices under a few places and 30 minutes later, there you go. Take down a hundred story building.

I’m sure my fellow engineers would argue that the strength of steel changes when exposed to high temperatures, making it weaker, but let’s ignore that. Please don’t waste your time googling a temperature - yield strength curve for steel. If you do, you can ignore the sharp drop off in the curve. Let’s also ignore any structural engineer that will try to tell you that maximum design loads are based on the shape of the column and the design models don’t typically assume a safety factor for severely weakened, twisted, or missing columns.

It is a lot more fun to convince yourself it was a giant conspiracy and ignore basic engineering.

Oh, so it's a basic engineering problem, huh? That must be why over 3,500 architects and engineers have called for a new investigation?

Stfu clown.



Still waiting for that skyscraper that was hit with a 50kg high explosive device and engulfed in flames to fall like #7.

thought they were all ultra wealthy

or maybe the 'security' part is about terrorism - and they have all the terrorist they capture in that one big bldg - when it gets full they set it on fire.

It is a lie, or youre clueless to the meaning of words. Admitting to being stupid is actually worse than lying.

You said the North tower didnt hit WTC7, yet agreed with every report that said debris struck WTC7. Do you have any clue where that debris came from??
quote:

debris - broken or torn pieces left from the destruction of something larger

A larger building being ripped apart while throwing off debris at unimaginable speed, from that far up

WTC1 very much struck WTC7, in multiple places

Still waiting on that SoB to fall, btw. I think this high explosive warhead that struck this building hit it with a little more force than the falling debris hit trade center #7. And unlike #7, we can actually see that that skyscraper was engulfed in flames. Yet it still stands. Go figure.
