Can you point out specific part of this video that is new? Or hasn't been discussed? There is nothing new here.

II got to the news reports of secondary explosions. I don't know what else to say...

You obviously failed to watch the 3 videos I posted that are in close proximity of Tower 2. None of them have any explosions or bombs going off at the time of collapse.
It's a pretty basic misconception. The seismic signal from collapse doesn't really begin until the destruction wave hits the ground. This is easily seen -- there won't be a large force transmitted into the ground until an equal and opposite force is transmitted into the collapsing material, i.e. slowing it down. As the conspiracists note, the collapse doesn't slow much as it passes through the building.
It is also no coincidence that the time for the collapse wave to reach the ground is ~ 10 seconds after initiation, ~10.5 according to BLBG. It's also preceded by large assemblies falling clear of the Tower and hitting the ground beside, which does take about 8.2 seconds -- as reported by NIST itself.
In other words, your friend on ATS has discovered nothing new, even though he thinks he has. It won't surprise me if nobody there can find his mistake.
Thanks,
Ryan Mackey

You want to continue to discuss that fact that not all explosions are explosives?

EDIT: Please don't ignore my challenge to you, either. You want to debunk "no explosions" you've got to debunk that seismic evidence, too.

You see, I'm wondering, because you seem to be a proponent of a remotely guided UA93 (LT: No, a swapped, remotely guided, substituted empty plane, or even loaded with already dead bodies from recent accidents, so there were real remains and real funerals with real relatives), intended to hit a target in MD or DC. You imply that it was brought down because of a delay in take off. Where was it brought down? In Shanksville? If it was, then the crash scene is as strange as the Pentagon...not much evidence of an airplane, conflicting eye witness reports, etc.
If it did not crash in Shanksville, and the plan was aborted late, then you must agree that the perpatrators (who ever they were) managed to re-route the airplane to a secret location and dispose of the aircraft and passengers with no outside witnesses, or crash the airplane in another location, fake all the radar data, all the DFDR data, and clean up the crash site with no witnesses catching on.
How do you reconcile these apparent discrepancies?
(LT: Flight 93 did not crash, but its swapped substitute did?)

I will freely admit that I can not speculate on what caused this. What I did do was reach out to NASA scientist Ryan Mackey.
Here is his response:

2. You use the word "remaining" to describe "debris", when it's crystal clear from my colored graph, that at the moment in time that the "pulse" originating from that huge energy source, arrived and got written, 17 seconds before in New York there was no movement at all to be seen at the WTC 7 building exterior. Especially not from the penthouse. NO DEBRIS !
Those 17 seconds were the traveling time from seismic signals from NY's WTC complex to the Palisades LDEO seismic station. (34 km divided by 2 km/sec = 17 sec).
So there was NO DEBRIS AT ALL to be described by you at that moment in time. And especially no REMAINING debris. There was no debris hitting anything, especially not the ground.
3. The later following dent in the roof of that penthouse on top of WTC 7 was described by NIST as the first VISUAL sign of movement at the building.
And after that dent showed itself, it took 8.2 more seconds, before, as described by NIST in their own words "the TOTAL GLOBAL collapse initiated" and progressed to the ground.

If Flight 93 was shot down by the USAF with the knowledge of the SecDef, doesn't that seem to indicate that Flt 93 was a real threat. That it was under the control of someone whose intent was unknown and presumed to be malicious?
And if thats the case, doesn't that indicate that everything that went down on 9/11 was just what it appeared to be?
