Twin Towers Collapse |

From 9/11 Encyclopedia:
Many circulated video clips of the "collapse" showed some physical evidence on controlled demolition, as shown on the cover photo from "The War on Freedom" (->) http://www.adoptcynthiamckinney.com/911/index.html http://www.bombsinsidewtc.dk/
As independent researcher Plaguepuppy observed, at the start of the collapse, the south tower begins to lean to the south, away from us in this view, so there should be no significant compression (and possibly some traction, if the core has any resistance) on the side closeset to us. This means that there is no way from the action of gravity to generate the high pressures it would take to pulverize and eject material in the manner seen. On Plaguepuppy's website is a collection of footage on the collapse. http://home.attbi.com
His "Spirepage" shows interesting videos of other parts which started to drop almost straight down and then turned into dust in place, as seen in one animation: http://home.attbi.com/~jmking/The_spire_expires.htm (new link)

Plaguepuppy on the fire:
"As someone who does not believe that the plane damage and fires alone can explain the way the towers collapsed, my biggest problem with the fires is that they got air almost exclusively from around the edges, yet are claimed to have generated enough heat to severely soften the core columns. There were fire shutters on each floor to keep the elevator and utility shafts of the core from acting as air vents or chimnies, so the oxygen and most of the heat generated would be around the edges, far from the core."
Christopher Bollyn of Americanfreepress.Net came to the following conclusion: "Impacts of the magnitude of those that occurred on September 11 were considered by the designers of the twin towers and the towers were designed to survive them. The possibility of a jet-fuel fires the size of those that occurred on September 11 were considered by the designers of the twin towers and the towers were designed to survive them. In order to explain why the towers collapsed, where other steel framed buildings would have survived, the WTC conspirators invented the "truss theory".
The "truss theory" is seriously flawed. It cannot explain how the perimeter wall transmits wind loading to the central core. The "truss theory", if accepted, leads to a 33 percent underestimate of the amount of steel in the towers. That is, the "truss theory" does not account for the whereabouts of 32,000 tons of steel (of 96,000 tons) used in the construction of each of the towers. The "truss theory" is a lie that has been spun to convince a gullible public, that what appeared to be the controlled demolitions of three of the World Trade Center buildings, were actually natural consequents of the aircraft strikes and not controlled demolitions at all. There are photos showing large steel girders positioned where the "official" line states that only (double) trusses should be. In all, one has to conclude that the "truss theory" is false and that those who push it are part of a large conspiracy to deceive the American people.
ARCHITECTS MUST PROVIDE WORLD TRADE CENTER BLUEPRINTS AND PLANS. Design architecture for the World Trade Center was provided by Minoru Yamasaki & Associates. Emery Roth & Sons served as the architect of record. Since these people have nothing to hide, they should provide the architectural plans of the World Trade Center, for all to see. This will enable any misunderstandings regarding the facts of the collapse to be established and corrected. In fact, Minoru Yamasaki & Associates, Roth & Sons, or their descendent companies, should put the entire set of architectural plans on the internet. Other sources:
