What is your explanation for that extraordinary collapse speed?
There was nothing even extraordinary about the collapse speeds themselves, unless you take the official theory into account.
The only thing that makes the collapse speeds "extraordinary" is if the official theory were true; that all three buildings collapsed from fires without any assistance from explosives. That's because steel-structured highrises cannot collapse in the manner that the three WTC buildings did on 9/11 from fire alone.
If explosives were used, like all available evidence shows, then the collapse speed was not "extraordinary". Not even close. A collapse speed of free-fall or a little less than free fall would be considered normal for a structure being brought down with explosives. .

Because could that energy weapon have been responsible for all those strangely toasted cars?
Figure 7(a). burned NYPD car Police car I've not seen before.
Why the back end and not the front?
So what is your expertise in evaluating vehicle fires?
Just how many car fires have you been to?
Diane Sawyer: And I've got Don Dayo (?) in here with me, we're dividing up all the duties, here, and he's been down to the scene, and also J.D. Hopfer (?) who says he's just a volunteer who came in here from California and was around the area.
I just wanted to know how much fire is there. You said you were just at Ground Zero. How much fire is left?
J.D. Hopfer (?):
Well at Building Seven there was no fire there whatsoever, but there was one truck putting water on the building. But, it's collapsed completely. And then, the other building, that there were some flames still coming up was in World Trade Center One, not a lot.
Diane Sawyer: You said you saw melted tour busses? Melted cars?
J.D. Hopfer (?): The cars that were right down there, ...it was just unbelievable. They were twisted and melted into nothing. The build... the debris is just unbelievable. And then you can see fire trucks and police vehicles that were down there early, that um, all their windows, their windshields, are completely blown out -- from, ...it must have been from when debris dropped.

am I right by saying then that you do therefore not believe the official theory and that the real cause of the collapse of the Twin Towers and WTC7 was due assistance of explosives [controlled demolition] and that the way the debris remained fits also in such an act, so nothing out of the "extraordinary"?

How do explain that with the cars which were far away as FDR Drive (about 7 blocks from the WTC, along the East River)???
Here you can see why he did find it all unbelievable.

Which reports did you read? All reports I read only mentioned "Steele Glowing red hot" not fires. Water would have done something about the fires. The Video and picture material shows the same thing, hot metal, but no fires. Much of the protective layer around ground zero had been destroyed for obvious reasons, so quite a lot of water slipped in the foundation as well.
Also an Oxygen starved fire should have produced black smoke, as it can be observed with burning coal mines, of which some burn for months. Its called a smoldering underground fire. The fumes at ground zero where white. Also whatever "burned" defied the water poured on top of it and the water that made its way into the foundation, so we can rule out the granulate, that was concrete and office appliances.
As you can see Dave, your conspiracy theory falls apart about as easily as that of Judy Woods XD . But please, produce a picture or video of those "fires" at ground zero. What is that? You are afraid those will offend the muslim community. Alright then :lol

Yep.
That is absolutely correct.

You're not out to learn the facts of 9/11. You're out to promote what you yourself want to believe happened on 9/11 regardless of what the facts are. I would appreciate it if you would at least be honest about your intentions.

Judy Wood made the error of assuming that the cars at FDR Drive were there before the towers collapsed. They could have been parked originally in the vicinity of the WTC, hit by debris and red hot embers and moved there in order to clear the side streets so that fire trucks, etc could get in and start looking for bodies and people who might be still alive.

In the debate over toasted cars ignited by this article, some have argued that the wrecked vehicles on FDR drive were damaged at the WTC and were loaded up and transported and dumped on FDR drive for storage.
First, there is no evidence that this was done.
Second, it makes no sense to load up wrecks, transport them, only to dump them in a busy thoroughfare for storage. These wrecks would have had to be picked up yet again and transported again.
If vehicles were truly moved from the WTC to FDR Drive, we wonder why WTC steel beams were not stacked up on FDR drive, as well, if it was such a good storage area.
Third, governments may be stupid, but we doubt they could be this inefficient. If reported, it would have been a minor scandal.
Fourth, we might be wrong about the facts here, but it looks like the motive for this speculation about shifting wrecks around lower Manhattan is to protect the official story or thermite story or other pet theories.
We fail to see any other explanation for such a "forced" interpretation for these photographs.
Fifth, marks on the roadway suggest that some of these vehicles were pushed to the side of the roadway until they could be removed. For example, see this figure. This is a more natural explanation for why some of the cars appear to have been moved from where they were damaged rather than all the way from the WTC.

What kind of planes do you think hit the Twin Towers, those claimed hijacked planes with those civilians on board or some specially adapted remotely controlled planes so to say, which I believe?

That’s a good point which was as it seems already debated.

Well, there is no evidence for DEW, either!. However, it's far simpler and appeals more to common sense that cars were moved and dumped than that some were mysteriously hit by space beams!!

That would have taken more time and required more personnel. This was a much needed temporary measure.

Typically poor argument. There was presumably no room left because all the space had been taken up with dumped cars.

Nah! It's just more common sense to suppose these damaged cars had been moved!
