Video #3 in the OP captures a very audible and powerful explosion. For a building that 'caught fire' from falling debris this explosion is so out of place. No wonder the 911 commission report utterly ignores building 7 - there is just no way they can fudge that one. Explosion. Free-fall collapse. Inside job.
So, you're saying that a single explosion brought down building 7?
It was just after the first attack on the North tower, but before the second plane hit the South Tower, when Barry Jennings escorted Michael Hess to the World Trade Center Tower 7. Mr. Jennings recalls a large number of police officers in the lobby of WTC 7 when they arrived. The two men went up to the 23rd floor, but could not get in, so they went back to the lobby and the police took them up in the freight elevator for a second try. When they arrived on level 23, at the Office of Emergency Management they found it had been recently deserted, "coffee that was on the desk, smoke was still coming off the coffee, I saw half eaten sandwiches".
At that point he made some phone calls, and an un-named individual told them to "leave, and leave right away". Jennings and Hess then proceeded to the stairs, and made it to level 6, when there was an explosion, and the stairwell collapsed from under their feet, Mr. Jennings was actually hanging, and had to climb back up. They made it back up to level 8, where Barry Jennings had a view of the twin towers, both buildings were still standing. This is an important detail, as many debunkers have used Mr. Jennings statements out of context to claim the damage came to WTC 7 from the towers collapsing, not the case according, to Mr. Jennings.

Preaching to the choir here I'm afraid.
I've been saying this since I watched them over and over and over and over again on news stations the day of and the many months after.
Brought down by fire my @$$.
Anyone who believes that needs to study building demolition, specifically controlled demolitions.
Wouldn't hurt to also check out other buildings that have been struck by aircraft and the damages they suffered. Not one that I've found has even partially collapsed from an aircraft crashing into it.
The melting point of the construction-grade steel girders is 2,795 degrees, well beyond what jet fuel and the associated things being burnt in it's path could possibly heat the steel to.
Jet fuel cannot burn hot enough to melt steel. Well, to be exact, construction-grade steel melts at 2795 degrees Fahrenheit. That's a proven fact, as can be seen from the website: www.chemicalelements.com...
Video on one explanation: www.youtube.com...
Plus if a plane hit that far up, the building would have toppled, not fell straight down like in a demolition...so many people buy that bull$h!t theory...I guess the fluoride in the water is really starting to work along side our failing education system.
Oh, and during clean up, DAYS after the 'crash' there was *still* molten steel in the bottom floors....do the math over 2700 degrees, and held for *how* long?
Right, jet fuel. Whatever.
*rolls eyes*
Sorry for ranting - just so sick of people claiming 1+1 = 3,451 to the quintupled power by the root of 37.

Anyone ever wonder if Flight93 really was brought down by passengers who took out the hijackers and then couldn't fly the plane ?
It just occured to me that Flight93 was probably meant for WTC7 and after it crashed they just went ahead with the demo anyway. Serious epiphany moment here.

Hey,
nice theory - that would make perfect sense and explain the WTC7 anomaly - good work!
I've always thought that one of the big problems with trying to "prove" whether 911 was an inside job, whether the towers were brought down by demolition, etc or not, is that it's impossible to prove or disprove - there is no solid evidence at all for any of it.
All there is is conjecture - if expert 1 says the steel couldn't have melted and the buildings collapsed, expert 2 will say that it could have.
It all comes down to who you believe.
So what I did was instead think about the weirdness factors and think about the odds of whether it could all have happened on the same day, in the same place, at the same time.
For example, what are the odds that on the day that hijackers allegedly took over some planes and flew them into buildings, that there was an imaginery exercise taking place where some hijackers took over some planes and flew them into the very same buildings (this also happened on 7/7 in London - which makes it even more weird).
What are the odds that all of the militarys jet fighters were conveniently miles away at that time, on exercise?
What are the odds that the hijackers passports (was it just their passports - were any effects of other people on the plane found?) could magically fly out of the aircraft and through the fireball unscathed, and then what are the odds that someone would find them among all of the rubble and among all of the debris in the blind panic?
What are the odds that a TV crew interview a guy who predicts - amazingly - that the towers must have collapsed after the fuel melted the steel - a guy on the street as it happens explaining the finer points of the structural integrity (or lack of it) of the towers!
What are the odds that tower 1 would fall, and what are the odds it would fall neatly into it's footprint rather than randomly, so that it didn't demolish the buildings around it.
What are the odds that tower 2 would do the same thing.
What are the odds that WTC7 would then do the exact same thing - even though it hadn't been hit by a plane, so couldn't have been "melted" by jet fuel?
What are the odds of 3 buildings all collapsing into their footprints on the same day in the same place after a fire, when it's never happened anywhere else in history - anywhere in the world.
Start looking at all of the weirdness and the odds of it all happening and the story is so unbelievable it would make the director of a no budget B movie blush with embarrassment.
