After watching this, there can be little doubt, that some form of explosives were used on both towers.

Don't you mean all 3 towers?

I couldn't even watch this whole video. It's so horribly edited, and even deliberately takes some witnesses statements out of context.

"Choosing to make selective choices among competing evidence, so as to emphasize those results that support a given position, while ignoring or dismissing any findings that do not support it, is a practice known as "cherry picking" and is a hallmark of poor science or pseudo-science."

What was it about the video you found horribly edited? It's a montage of clips, that naturally wont flow like a slick TV or film production because they are from various amateur & media sources. I don't think it's that bad, they could not have made it any better, it is what it is.
It actually gets better as it goes along, more incredible footage appears the further you get into the video, like the part at 24:07 - 24:27 that I highlighted in my description.
How does it deliberately take some witness statements out of context? Their statements are about what they saw and heard as it happened, the context is the explosions and bombs they witnessed on the day before and during the collpases. There can be no other context.

First post on ATS. I came here for the UFOs but signed up just to post on this 911 topic.
I remember when I was watching it happening on live TV and saw the towers go down, my first gut reaction/thought was "they gave up on the towers and decided to take them down." It was too obvious that it was a controlled demolition. Does common sense matter to the skeptics at all? Are you guys like machines that operate on data only? I know common sense cannot be proof nor do I wish to prove anything with this post. I'm just curious and disappointed that deny ignorance can mean deny common sense. I'm applying it only to the way the towers came down. So please don't go off on a tangent trying to argue why common sense can mean a lot of ignorance in many other situations - I know that.
I also know some people in real life who can't accept that the towers were brought down by controlled demolition. It's not because they don't have common sense but that their life philosophy does not allow for the possibility that our government lied to us. Sure this isn't the kind of post that has any rigorous science but I've described my gut reaction/feeling while watching the towers coming down live on 9/11.

I see there are a couple of people knocking the video, I guess that is to be expected on 9/11 forums.
There are many people that ignore the obvious when it is staring them in the face. The official reports are not to be trusted, they have come short in so many ways, and there are too many people questioning their reports.
If they did a thorough and transparent job with their official reports then people would still not be questioning them. It happened over a decade ago, and many, many people all over the world will not settle because they know in their mind that those buildings came down with the assistance of explosives.

Has nothing to do wit being lied to.
These people in the video talk of many explosions and bombs, they know what they saw, they know what they heard, they just know. There are experts in disbelief, and many other professionals including first responders that cannot accept everything that is in the official reports.
This video is the best source for eye witness accounts, and no matter what anyone says, those personal accounts cannot be argued. They are what they are, all those different people were not mistaken, they were there, it was real, they know what they saw, they know what they experienced.

They know what they saw? Ever heard of Antiques Road show? People don't know what they see.
Experts and professionals and first responders are in disbelief because they are the experts and they know what they are talking about. They have examined the evidence. And yet not one of them say there were explosives planted.
Even the truther touted expert Gage refuses to speculate on how and where explosives were placed. Ever wonder why?
There is a hugh difference between evidence and speculation. This video is not evidence. None of these Youtube vids are evidence. It's all speculation
