Your comparing 5 people in this thread to 350 million people around the world? this is why people laugh at truthers, NO LOGIC now QUIT RESPONDNG AND PROVOKING ME because its clear you're mad about losing. I don't have time to fight off 3483948 truthers all day, be gone with your delusional cooky nut job conspiracy self.

Anyway I'm done with this thread, I knew this thread would be crawling with conspiracy theorists (its the 911 conspiracy section what do you expect lol) but I'm glad a lot of sane people realize that 911 wasn't an inside job and that there is no HARD evidence to support that claim, just theories. I hope the gullible internet sheeple wake up from the spell the theories will put you under, and learn that the real world rejects these "movie like theories" and real physics and science does not indicate ANY foul play. Have fun delusional truthers.

everyone knows Steel loses its strength and stiffness when subjected to high temperatures. A typical steel structural member loses its load-carrying capacity (or about 50 percent of its original strength) at 538°C (1,000°F) when exposed to an ASTM E-119 standard fire (Kodur and Harmathy 2002).edit on 18-6-2011 by SkepticAndBeliever because: (no reason given)

Explain Bldg 7. That is the start, middle and end of the debate. If that ONE building can be explained by natural forces and occurrence through the events of that morning, then all the theories fall apart. If however, it cannot be explained as a cause/effect of two planes hitting Bldg 1 and 2, then it's all a load of crap. It's really that simple and that cut and dry. So..... Explain Bldg 7.
Firehouse: Did that chief give an assignment to go to building 7?
Boyle: He gave out an assignment. I didn't know exactly what it was, but he told the chief that we were heading down to the site.
Firehouse: How many companies?
Boyle: There were four engines and at least three trucks. So we're heading east on Vesey, we couldn't see much past Broadway. We couldn't see Church Street. We couldn't see what was down there. It was really smoky and dusty.
...
We went one block north over to Greenwich and then headed south. There was an engine company there, right at the corner. It was right underneath building 7 and it was still burning at the time. They had a hose in operation, but you could tell there was no pressure. It was barely making it across the street. Building 6 was fully involved and it was hitting the sidewalk across the street. I told the guys to wait up.
....A couple of the other officers and I were going to see what was going on. We were told to go to Greenwich and Vesey and see what's going on. So we go there and on the north and east side of 7 it didn't look like there was any damage at all, but then you looked on the south side of 7 there had to be a hole 20 stories tall in the building, with fire on several floors. Debris was falling down on the building and it didn't look good.
Firehouse: When you looked at the south side, how close were you to the base of that side?
Boyle: I was standing right next to the building, probably right next to it.
Firehouse: When you had fire on the 20 floors, was it in one window or many?
Boyle: There was a huge gaping hole and it was scattered throughout there. It was a huge hole. I would say it was probably about a third of it, right in the middle of it. And so after Visconti came down and said nobody goes in 7, we said all right, we'll head back to the command post. We lost touch with him. I never saw him again that day.

Game over.
You going to deny all this eye witness testimony? And all this expert opinion?

Of whom do you speak? Yourself? I was merely pointing out the flaw in your last post, amounting to idle name calling and character assassination.
Facts are fickle, some add up to none. Only by looking at the big picture can you even begin to decipher the intent of the attackers. Who benefitted?

Did I say I believed in the pancaking theory? I don't know what to believe aside from the fact that we are lied to in this disaster, also I think you got the wrong poster your replying to because I never pointed you to any wiki.

I will rip anyone who is dumb enough to believe the official story.
In addition, if you pump up the official story, your time will come, it's that simple.

Physics 101 - Statics
Basic elementary physics explains why this isn't feasible.
For a couple of reasons.
If it collapsed due to fatigue as we are being told. It wouldn't occur evenly.
In order for something to fall straight down as it did, the supporting structure would need to be removed evenly...as in controlled demolition.
Otherwise if collapsing due to fatique, the weaker side, where the plane struck would collapse first.
Secondly, due to the conservation of energy.
The top 15 floors did not weigh more than the bottom 85 floors + 6 floors of foundation.
In Physics 101 we are taught this via what are called Free Body Diagrams which described the forces on a body under gravity.
They look like this:
Where N is the Normal the forces pushing upwards due to the strength of the object.
Where F is the Force pushing downward due to gravity and it's weight or mass
F= ma
In this example we would use Block A as representing the top floors that collapsed coming down on Block B.
Which represents the opposing 85 Floors + 6 Floors of Foundation pushing upwards.
You'd calculate the forces of each. And in summary simply due to the major differences in Mass.
Even though block A is moving it still would not exceed the forces pushing upwards represented by B.
Which is where the Architects and Engineers calculations can provide details and numbers of ...
You can test this theory by creating a tower of 11 cinder blocks for example.
1 cinder block representing 10 stories of the WTC.
1 cinder block on top is lifted up a few inches representing the distance the top floors traveled initially due to the collapse of the story.
Now Drop this top cinder block on the bottom 10 cinder blocks.
The forces pushing downward would be opposed by the forces pushing upwards which were far greater and would not collapse the bottom 10 cinder blocks...but at most, might damage one slightly.
Because the forces would be absorbed by the entire structure and not only the single cinder block being impacted.
Plain and Simple.
But this is what they were counting on.
How many Americans even understand Physics for example ?
I mean, looking at all of my suburban neighbors, Avg working Americans....most due not have a clue.
When it comes to math and science...
That was the whole basis of the Fraud of 911. Televised Shock and Awe to a gullible uneducated population.
War is a Racket.
It's called physics there was not enough weight in the above sections of the building to "implode" the bottom of the buildings. To suggest this happened without the help of explosives is physically impossible.

Thank you for your wonderful wisdom, I guess I'll ignore every expert that disagrees with you and take your word for it.....ya but I'M gullible? Funny.
