Another Comparison between a Tower and a man:
Tower weight: 500,000 ton
Boeing weight: 200 ton
man weight: 80 kg
500,000 tons : 200 tons = 80 kg : x
500,000,000 kg : 200,000 kg = 80 kg : x
x = 0,032 kg = 32 g
200,000 kg : 32 g = 800 km/h : x 200,000,000 g : 32 g = 800,000 m/h : x
x = 0,128 m/h = 12.8 cm/h
Steel ball impact velocity against the man: 12.8 cm/h
Biggest velocity indeed
These are Phisics calculations with proportions

What a ridiculous attempt at an analogy.
Can a 300 pound torpedo sink a 45,000 ton ship?
Hmm.....maybe we should check the history books on Naval warfare?

Can you destroy a man, can you crumble him with a little steel ball that weighs 32 grams?
NO
Can a ridiculous plane that weighs 200 tons crumble a powerfull Tower that weighs 500,000 tons?
NO ABSOLUTELY NO

Imagine that God had hit the top of the tower with a gigantic hammer (100 meters x 100 meters)
What would it have happened?
Steel columns and beams would have bent, would be unbolted but they would not be crumbled.
Steel is not like camel crap dried under the sun

Dear friend wmd_2008
You wrote: "YOU dont have a clue about the construction of these buildings THE FLOORS COULD FALL IN SIDE THE WALLS"
In your opinion the falling floors could crumble powerful steel beams and columns of 400 meters
YES, IN CONTROLLED DEMOLITIONS WITH EXPLOSIVES
Look at this vid:Youtube

Capitalizing words doesn't make them any more true.
It's just a lie written in CAPS.

Just confirms YOU haven't got a clue about structures!!!
Have all of you not yet understood that they have been demolished with explosives?
What are you still looking for?
Also stupid children would now understand that the towers have collapsed through controlled demolitions.
Haven't you engineers in your country that have confirmed Twin Towers have been destroyed with explosives?
Bush wanted a pretext to make a war of the west against the Arabic countries to take possession of oil, but nobody has agreed.
Stop these boring discussions about an evident thing indeed.

There was no design flaw. Those buildings were OVER-built. They just happened to be built differently because they were so tall and were designed for continuous office space without interrupting columns. The ycould have withstood being hit by the entire American Airlines fleet without collapsing the way they did.
