Mike wrong. Hulsey Penthouse breaks at the base and splits there. It doesn't do a pivot outward, it splitting and doing a diving motion behaviour and starts falling down through a hole in the roof. It matches the actual collapse on 9/11. NIST penthouse model is less accurate, it breaks at the base, but splits at the top, and then breaks open.
Yeah, it seems highly unlikely this is an actual simulation of the global collapse. The west penthouse falls like a Super-Mario platform, and none of the interior beams even move anywhere as much.

The The Nordenson report instead put forth the idea that these girder connections failed
due to stress raisers (cracking) caused by repeated heating and cooling cycles. However, this
structure did not experience heating and cooling cycles anywhere near sufficient to allow stress
raisers to cause fatigue failure..
It is important to understand that steel structural members reaching temperatures of 750°C due to office fires can be considered extraordinary.
How Hot Do Property Fires Get?

Temperatures in Property Fires
The heat generated in a property fire is actually more dangerous than the flames themselves. The heat alone can kill. Room temperatures may be 100 degrees at your feet, which doesn’t sound too bad until you realize heat rises.
At eye level, it could be 600 degrees, hotter than the highest setting on most residential ovens. Temperatures at the ceiling could reach 1,500 degrees! At this temperature, your clothes can melt to your skin. Breathing in this super-hot air can even sear your lungs.

Please show this in a side by side comparison. Your assertion is wrong.
Mike thinks the images don't look alike. The first image is not meant to be an exact representation or drawing of the Penthouse collapse.
It's a building tilt analyses graphic, to just show what happened when Hulsey took out Columns 79, 80, and 81 on different floors. It basically a linear static analysis test.

and what is happening here? they added stretchy columns to their physics model? this isn't normal in a model right?

Notice here the corner closest to the camera - on the right, and highlighted in blue in the simulation. In reality, it pivots around the base, just falling into the building to the left. In the simulation, it does a bizarre, inexplicable pivot outwards.
This is even clearer in the front view
Notice nothing underneath the penthouse is moving. Not only is this motion radically different to observed reality, there's also no explanation for why their simulation would give this result.

I chatted with Mike West yesterday and blew apart his arguments. Go on his Youtube page I posted there. He was forced to respond to me as I showed how silly his arguments were. Mike will still leave up his posts on Metabunk, he too cowardly to admit his wrong.

Of course you did. And then everybody cheered

It Youtube I got thanks for what I said, check it out. Mike thinks he can say things freely and not be debunked. It's a safe space on his forum and he gets away with this nonsense.

Yeah, sure
Have you not noticed Mike rebuke was about a hypothetical collapse model? Is that the best he can do? Hulsey explained why the building tipped to the southwest- but Mike trying to claim Hulsey did not explain it.
He did.
Based on this analysis, we found that a simultaneous failure of all core columns would
cause the building to tip to the southwest. We attribute this behaviour to WTC 7 having fewer
exterior columns on its south side than on its north side and on the reported damage to columns
on the southwest corner caused by the impact of debris from the collapse of WTC 1 — damage
that we included in our model.
We can also derive from this analysis that even if the horizontal progression of core
column failures asserted by NIST, Arup/Nordenson, and Weidlinger had somehow occurred,
leaving the exterior standing as a hollow shell momentarily, it would still not result in the
observed straight-down collapse.
