those are pics of the columns in A warehouse. I never said there weren't columns found.
I said that they arnt ON TOP OF THE DEBRIS PILES.
at aprox 1:30 into your vid there is dust falling DOWN out of the windows(?) of the tower BEFORE it collapsed . That is the concrete floors being turned to dust and gravity pulling it down. I notice the huge plumes erupting from the top also.
can you find pics of this steel on the debris pile? I can't .

I think he means the standing remains of the steel core (spire) not the actual antenna mounted to the top of the building.

The spire stood for 14seconds after collapse. That is not "falling along with the rest of the building"

So you want photos of the core columns as found on site rather than photos of retrieved core columns? I'm not certain what benefit you see in the distinction, but whatever. Here's another photo of the wreckage at ground zero, and you can clearly still see portions of the exterior facade still standing.
Notice the pile of long, rectangular objects in the lower right section of the photo. Those are core columns, as proven by their being the same length and shape of the previous photos I posted of a core column as well as being in a location where they would be found in relation to the exterior facade.

Yes I do sorry if this was unclear.
The data below seem to strongly tie up with features of what has become known as “The Hutchison Effect”. The Hutchison Effect actually seems to describe a range of observed characteristics, some of which are listed below. John Hutchison is a Canadian inventor and experimental scientist who has been experimenting with “field effects” for almost 30 years. There is a great deal of information about him on the internet, and a selection is linked from this set of pages.

So your saying you see 60 stories of steel columns in that pic? The pile is barely taller than the firefighters. We are talking about almost 1/3of the entire wtc1 . Not to mention if they did fall you would have steel beams jutting up from the center of the tower as not all of the lower portions would break.

If you're looking for something that shows ALL the core columns for the ENTIRE structure for BOTH buildings in ONE photo then you're not going to find it because it logically and physically cannot exist. When the building fell it naturally piled wreckage on top of other wreckage so there's no way you can see all the core columns at a time. Your "pics or it didn't happen" adage is not sufficient in this case because unless you're one of those fringe "the towers were fake buildings" conspiracy extremists you're going to have to accept the assumed fact that a 120 floor building in use for 30 years did in fact had enough steel to build 120 floors. It's like relying on "pics or it didn't happen" to refute the assumed fact that underneath the top layer of lava in a volcano there's going to be more lava.
I am going to have to ask you once and for all just what your point is with all of this that a photo of a recovered column and a photo of a pile of columns at ground zero is insufficient to explain. No more beating around the bush, please.
if it isn't then we have to agree it went somewhere. But where?

In the still frame I see a lot of smoke. Are we just seeing the remaining smoke arter the steel has fallen?
Just because you see a smoke ring somewhere doesn't mean there must be a ring inside the smoke.

Ah, I see what the problem is- you've been listening to those other conspiracy theorists spouting "the towers fell neatly in their footprints" and you don't know you've been had. The sixty stories of steel didn't just accumulate into a tidy neat pile- wreckage was scattered all over the place in every direction, including down into the six level basement. You can see right away from the conditions at ground zero how everything was toppled every which way, and from the angle of this photo it appears to be the same angle as the second one I posted.
Where the sixty stories of steel went is therefore obvious- everywhere.
So, one more time- what is your point?

Here is a high res aerial photo taken ten days after the attacks.
It's a massive file, 14MB, but you can zoom right into the middle and see a lot of debris from the spire: long, proportionately thin core columns on top of the middle of the rubble that has not yet been reached by the construction cranes and bulldozers. This is your answer. The core columns of the spire fell down last, and thus landed on top of the other rubble.
I haven't been able to find an earlier shot that wasn't full of smoke obscuring much of the detail shown here. but I'm not going to spend all night on this.
