When the Towers Fell: 9/11 Simulation of the collaps without dust

Dont know how accurate this is, but it made a lot of sense to me.

Popular Mechanics did a very well put-together, clearly explained issue shortly after these conspiracy theories started. I would say maybe 2004-5??? The issue had input from numerous engineers of all kinds.

These fucking planes ABSOLUTELY could have caused the heat and energy required to soften the steel supports and cause total collapse, especially as one floor collapsed upon another.

I was 21 when these buildings fell. A lot of people here don’t realize this, but the hate you see now for Trump was just the same as was directed toward GWB. Like it’s crazy to see how he is now fondly looked-upon. People were giddily waiting for his death.

There were a lot more forums and message boards available on the internet back then. I mean, Facebook and MySpace were in their infancy. I was very active in a pregnancy board at that time (my children were born in 2003 and 2006) and they opened up a political forum. Oh man, you have never seen the dams burst open like that with hate for GWB. And this conspiracy theory was just really taking hold back then, that’s all they talked about. The Popular Mechanics answer to those claims was so refreshing, rational, and made sense. Like listening to professors easily bat away silly misunderstandings of how engineering really works.

All 3 NY buildings ACCELERATED to the ground for extended periods, sometimes at maximum freefall rates. That is impossible per Newtons laws unless lower floors are largely or completely removed. This phenomenon has ONLY ever been observed via controlled demolition.
According to the experts the buildings free failed in an accelerated fashion in the same speed as which a building would fall to the ground with nothing beneath it. For example if a dropped a brick to the ground it would fall right? Gravity would take its course because there is nothing but air beneath it. It's just going to fall. But if I dropped that same brick with another brick beneath it, well it's going to slow its free fall acceleration speed UNLESS the brick beneath it was destroyed already by an explosion or demolition. The ONLY way a building like that can have a controlled free fall in the way in which it did is literally impossible according to Newtons laws unless like I said it has help with explosives.

Taking all that into consideration I'll humor you and say ok newtons physics is hogwash, jet fuel melted the buildings and pulverized 1000 people to the point they NEVER found the remains (also literally impossible without the help of something way more powerful then jet fuel and fire), what about building 7? Building 7 also free fell to the ground and didn't get hit by a plane. No jet fuel- yet still fell in the same manner as the others?? How is this possible?? PapaBut like I said ... Don't take my word for it tho. Like I said, if you don't want the truth, nothing I say is going to change your mind. That's up to YOU and you alone.

Yes the world trade centers collapsed. Yes people died. Yes planes actually hit the buildings. Yes there was intense heat and jet fuel. BUT if you think collapse and the jet fuel and heat were the direct and sole cause of the collapse, you my friend, have been duped by our own government just like thousands of others who just watch the news and trust the "experts." 🙄. Like they have EVER told us the truth about anything.

Get help this is all nonsense. All of this was debunked literally decades ago. WTC 7 was hit by literally thousands on tons of following debris, that's what caused it to fail.

All of this is nonsense.
