I wonder what caused that explosion when the planes hit the buildings, jet fuel

I'm asking a very simple question, still no answer

well, you explain to me what brought THE 2 TOWERS down at nearly free fall speed?
Jet impact? nah
Buildings burning hot? nah
Control Demolition? more than likely
Neutronflux lighting a match? nah... can't see that
9/11 and the Science
of Controlled Demolition
www.skeptic.com...
3WHAT ABOUT THE ALMOST FREE-FALL COLLAPSE OF THE TWIN TOWERS? The key is the “almost” modifier. If I told you I was making almost $100,000 and you found out I was making only $67,000, you’d say I was exaggerating. So stop exaggerating the collapse speed of the WTC Towers! The 80,000 tons of structural steel slowed down the collapses of the Twin Towers to about ⅔ (two-thirds) of free-fall.3 And the core collapsed at about 40% of free-fall speed, coming down last.4 According to Richard Gage: “To bring a building symmetrically down, what we have to do is remove the core columns.” But on 9/11 the stronger core columns came down last, which violates this supposed most fundamental rule of controlled demolition.
Failure of Welded Floor Truss Connections from the Exterior Wall during Collapse of the World Trade Center Towers
app.aws.org...
Summary
Analysis of the connections supporting the composite floor system of the WTC towers showed that at and below the im- pact floors, the greater majority (above 90%) of the floor truss connections were either bent downward or completely re- moved from the exterior column. This was probably related to the overloading of the floors below the impact region after col- lapse initiation. Depending upon weld joint geometry, detachment of the main load-bearing seats was a result of either fracture in the heat affected zone of the base material (standoff plate detached from spandrel) or through the weld metal (seat angle detached from standoff plate). Failure in both cases was assumed to be a result of a shear mechanism as a result of overloading from floors above impacting those below. There did not appear to be a significant change in distribution of failure modes of the floor truss connections when comparing those connections inside vs. outside of the impact region or those ex- posed to pre-collapse fires and those that were not.

and if you don't believe in that statement...
And what about all that heat in the towers to weaken the beam? It could not have come from the planes as MOST of it should've burnt in that explosion on impact
BUT 2 TOWERS collapse as they did. Weird... 2 towers on the same day and they both fell the very same way.
the very same people did the controlled demolition on the 2 towers.
You are blind or have an agenda... pick one

youre right. definitely controlled demo. inside job. israel likely involved.

Why would I answer a parrot, when you always copy/paste the same old pictures, same old wall of text. You must have it all memorized by now since you've been posting the same pictures and the same wall of text for I don't know how many pages and threads, when a question is asked about something else.
And yes, as you answered " probably both" for being blind and have an agenda, we (ATS members) knew that a long time ago. It's obvious. I even suspect something else...
Btw, view this video. It'll show you the towers collapsing a little faster than your pictures. (go to 3min 40 sec)

You didn't even watch the video. Watch the video... the towers go down way faster then your parroted pictures.
I don't care where some columns landed, you can shove them up... you know where. Watching the towers go down is enough proof for me.
I'm not the one pushing an agenda here
From video evidence, significant portions of the cores of both buildings (roughly 60 stories of WTC 1 and 40 stories of WTC 2) are known to have stood 15 to 25 seconds after collapse initiation before they, too, began to collapse. Neither the duration of the seismic records nor video evidence (due to obstruction of view caused by debris clouds) are reliable indicators of the total time it took for each building to collapse completely.

Only idiots would post the same copy/paste pictures and posts a thousand times.
Instead of posting very selective pictures of the collapse, why don't you show us an ACTUAL VIDEO of the collapse?
You won't because then it would be too obvious of a CONTROL DEMOLITION and then you would look like a fool.
