I will take that as your admission that you are unable to provide the time lines of demo explosions in the videos which depict the collapse of WTC1, WTC2, and WTC7.

I am not sure who you think you are fooling, but it isn't people with intelligence that have done the research.
I can tell you that I have seen quite a few interviews of citizens and firemen on that day, who claim they heard, saw or felt demolitions throughout the buildings and the area. Not to mention firemen and demolitions themselves claim it was controlled demolitions that brought the buildings down.
Be honest, did you do any research at all you on your own, or do you just repeat what you hear? Whether or not you believe them is your own view, but you can't just outright lie like that when clearly you are mistaken.
Also, does it mean nothing when a lot of firemen and demolitions experts agree that this was a controlled demolition?
You can't break the laws of physics, period. 1400 degrees is not hot enough to melt steel, not in this universe anyway. I am not sure what people can't understand about this. You need almost double that amount of heat to melt it. DOUBLE, meaning you're not even remotely in the ball park at that temperature.
He is fooling himself, nothing more. Like all the rest of us, he was deceived 14 years ago. Unlike many of us now, he still does not realize he's been fooled.
Prove me wrong in front of everyone here by posting the time lines in the following video where demo explosions are heard and do so for all to see, or should I say, hear, and if you are unable to post those time lines, then it will be evident that I am correct. In other words, it is just a simple request for you to prove me wrong with evidence of demo explosions in the videos as the WTC Tower collapses.
Your posting video shot by news crews using microphones designed to drown out background noise and want to use it as evidence? Brilliant !!
Pretty conclusive I'd say
No flashes
No booms
No shockwaves
Just large structures breaking up and collapsing and arguably the most recorded such events that have ever occurred.
I noted your earlier statements about real explosives like military munitions and I've experienced those myself - nothing even remotely like that happened at the WTC. Such explosions would be undeniable.
I can still remember the night when my living quarters in Vietnam was violently shaken by a B-52 strike many miles away.

So sad people actually stared this post thinking they can make a microphone that can remove explosions.
The pictures depicted no such thing.
Brent Blanchard: Demolition Expert
Undicisettembre: How long and how many people would be necessary to prepare the Twin Towers for a controlled demolition?
Brent Blanchard: There are different ways you can approach it. You could have a small crew working in different areas for a very long period of time, or if you have many people obviously they would need less time. But again anyone who works in the building, even maintenance people, could see areas where walls were broken away to access the beams. You have to access the beams, you cannot just put explosives in a room and set them off and expect anything to happen to the beams. The explosives would follow the path of least resistance, they would blow up a bunch of windows and nothing would happen to the beams.
Undicisettembre: In case you actually wanted to demolish the Twin Towers with a controlled demolition, would you have used a wire to start the explosions or a radio signal?
Brent Blanchard: If I wanted to have the least amount of detection and of physical evidence I would have used a radio wireless frequency detonator, but there's still no way to wire all those columns together without using any wire. Even with a wireless detonator you would still have to tie these columns together. And the biggest point is still that you need access to those columns. There are only two ways you can blast such a thick steel H-beam. One is to bulk load it, which means you take a big load of explosives and you just duct tape it or attach it to the beams and you just let it rip and obliterate the beam. The second way, which is what happens with true controlled demolitions, is that you cut through the flanges and you attached the charges to a point where the flanges are pre-cut and then you finish the job with the explosives.
Those are really the only two ways to cause a beam of that size to fail. Now you have to magnify that times dozens, if not hundreds, of beams. Because if you shoot ten of those nothing is going to happen, the building won't fail. You have to shoot many more than that, because the weight is distributed around that structure at the core and around the perimeter. Both methods would be extremely noticeable to the naked eye.
Furthermore, if you were going to bulk load the columns, you would have not only seen the fireball where the plane hit but also huge fireballs everywhere these explosives detonate, and nothing of the sort was seen.
Undicisettembre: So in case of bulk loading there would have been fireballs also at lower floors. Everywhere in the building.
Brent Blanchard: Absolutely. Wherever you set those explosives you have to have a sharp release of energy and a release of gasses. There would be a combustible event, you can't help but notice it. It displaces air, it displaces material, it would be extremely noticeable.
Undicisettembre: What do you think about World Trade Center 7? Was its collapse a controlled demolition, in your opinion?
Brent Blanchard: No. Absolutely not. I know people who were on the site and they told me first hand they knew the building was about to collapse. And even if I didn't know those people you can look at the way the North Tower collapsed and how all the debris that fell to the north directly into WTC7 shearing huge chunks of building 7 on the South side, which is not the side that everyone watches on the YouTube videos. On the south side there was extensive damage all the way down. The entire load bearing mechanism is weakened when a towering structure more than twice the size of the subject structure literally falls on top of it.
It's not surprising to me that that building collapsed. I wasn't aware at that time of the gasoline storage or the damage to the south side of the building, but even without that knowledge you could see fires burning freely for hours. And if you let a fire burn freely in any structure, sooner or later that structure is going to collapse.
To me, the fact that it collapsed so many hours after the other towers tends to support evidence of the natural progression of the collapse rather than some sinister plot.
Undicisettembre: So do you think the time it took the Towers to collapse on 9/11 indicates anything mysterious?
Brent Blanchard: No, I see nothing mysterious about it. I see them collapsing exactly at the rate they would if they were to fail at the points that they did where the plane struck. They met a certain amount of resistance while coming down, and some other areas that did not resist peeled outward, and those elements legged into other buildings. That is a very important distinction when you try to explain why this didn't look like a building implosion.

Fire, Not Extra Explosives, Doomed Buildings, Expert Says
A New Mexico explosives expert says he now believes there were no explosives in the World Trade Center towers, contrary to comments he made the day of the Sept. 11 terrorist attack.
"Certainly the fire is what caused the building to fail," said Van Romero, a vice president at the New Mexico Institute of Mining and Technology.

But the pictures taken after the event, during the event, show the results of high explosive events, for sure.
