Watching the building go into a freefall like that is exactly what a controlled demolition looks like....... if it was a controlled demolition
Except for the man months of work required to wire a building up, with no one noticing the tonnes of explosives or km of wire, or the holes bashed in the walls, then there are the silent explosives that they used, as no one heard tonnes of explosives going off, then they also used blast free explosives, as no one saw windows being blown out by the tonnes of explosives used...
Also they would have found all of those tonnes of explosives and km of wire if they could not have set it off, as the only reason it collapsed was it was severely damaged by the collapse of WTC1 and the fires...
Also how do you explain the building leaning and the FDNY having a transit on the building watching it lean.... this is before your magical explosives were set off, remember....
So when you look at the claim it was wired and fired for demolition you really see what a silly idea that was!

Now how much planning and prep would be required to bring the building down in a not so perfect demolition where you don't need to take into consideration the surrounding structures and size of the debris field?

I wouldn't be too surprised if the group that took over the plane that hit the pentagon was meant for building 7.

And yet, once again, not one single shred of proof that explosives were used.

The evidence?
The evidence is by watching the video of Building 7 collapse.

But, weren't there testimonies of people saying that they heard explosions before the building collapsed? o
Also, you don't need that many explosives. All you need is a couple of explosives that would damage the foundations of a building enough for it to go down...

Most of them couldn't describe what they see in this pic…

The evidence is by watching the video of Building 7 collapse.
So no evidence of explosives at all....
No blast wave from explosives going off - check.
no windows being blown out by the blast - check.
no one in the building noticing tonnes of explosives - check.
no one in the building noticing km of wire to wire the explosives up - check.
no one in the building noticing holes knocked in the walls for the explosives - check.
no one in the building noticing all the men carrying the tonnes of explosives, the km of wire into the building - check.
no one in the building noticing men knocking holes in the walls for the explosives - check.
no one in the building noticing even noticing egg timers on the walls - check.
no one during the clean up noticing the km of wire used, the hundreds of blasting caps used, the explosives that did not go off - check.
no one during the cleanup noticed the damage done by the tonnes of explosives - check.
But by watching a video you know explosives were used....
As you can clearly see it would be so easy for people working in the building to miss….

A 47 storey steel structured building fell within it's own footprint
When the first 7 World Trade Center collapsed, debris caused substantial damage and contamination to the Borough of Manhattan Community College's Fiterman Hall building, located adjacent at 30 West Broadway, to the extent that the building was not salvageable.[52] .... The adjacent Verizon Building, an art deco building constructed in 1926, had extensive damage to its east facade from the collapse of 7 World Trade Center,
At approximately 2:00 pm, firefighters noticed a bulge in the southwest corner of 7 World Trade Center between the 10th and 13th floors, a sign that the building was unstable and might cave to one side or "collapse".[38] During the afternoon, firefighters also heard creaking sounds coming from the building and issued uncertain reports about damage in the basement
at free-fall-speed.
From collapse timing measurements taken from a video of the north face of the building, NIST observed that the building's exterior facade fell at free fall acceleration through a distance of approximately 8 stories (32 meters, or 105 feet), noting "the collapse time was approximately 40 percent longer than that of free fall for the first 18 stories of descent."[82] The fires, fueled by office contents, along with the lack of water, were the key reasons for the collapse.[31]
That is a fact,

Must be they did all that work the morning of 911 (rolls eyes).

Scott Forbes (A Brit) worked at the South Tower before 9/11. He said three weeks prior to 9/11 he was given notice that there would be a power down on the Saturday and Sunday before 9/11. This was unprecedented. All systems down.
#1, the most commonly used claims - power completely down across the building, many engineers coming in and out of the building - are sourced only to a Scott Forbes.
Even Forbes' own claims seem less definitive in other interviews: GW: How do you know that there was no electricity from floor 50 up, if Fiduciary Trust was on much higher floors -- starting at the 90th floor? SF: I can't absolutely verify that there was no power on lower floors ... all I can validate is that we were informed of the power down condition, that we had to take down all systems and then the following day had to bring back up all systems ...
Forbes tells us “the power down condition was in effect from approximately 12 noon on Saturday September 8, 2001” (see point 5 below), yet it appears it was still business as usual for visitors heading to the top of the tower.
#4, even if all this were true, it still only provided access to half of one tower. What about the North Tower? WTC7? No mention of "power downs" there.
