The planes crashed into the corners of the buildings, how did the buildings fall in a vertical position?!
when engineers make a building collapse, they do researches on how to put the dynamites in special places so that it collapses vertically, now how did the WTC collapse very accuratly vertically????

lol people people people! the building was not based on those little steal columns, a LOT of concrete! those small metal columns are not enough to hold a big building like that! and i never heard concrete gets affected by fire!!!
and anyway, wat i saw is, the down half of the building ( under the planes holes ) started to fall first! how the heck is that! its supposed the upper half first fall on the down half and make it weakened and then all fall down. I actually didn't think the buildings were gonna fall from the planes fires, it would just leave a hole and thats it.
the story has 2 sides, one is the planes and thats terrorism and actually unbelievable that ppl can do that! but the second side is, the buildings falling.
unless the building has some sort of self destruction mechanism, it shouldn't have fell.
maybe it was built so that when a plane crashes in it, it just destroy itself! lol
coz if u have acloser look u wud see some small explosions in the metals wen falling.

The intense heat melted the steel girders and weakened the overall structure. Remember that the fires had been raging unchecked in a chimney situation with lots of fuel for about 45 minutes.
Also the crashes themselves caused seismic stress to both buildings that they were not accustomed to.

The building were designed to come down that way.Right after 9/11 they spoke to the guy that designed the buildings and he said just that.Actually the second plane hit the corner the first was almost a direct hit.Jet fuel burns at something like 600 degrees.What this guy said was the heat of the fuel burning would have ignited the insulation and the way the floors were connected to the outer skin hen the steel inside started to lose integrity the weight would be too much for the outer skeleton to support them.

The planes didn't hit directly on the corners. When the planes hit the force weakened the structure and most likely sheared off several columns, weakening it more. Between the intense heat, the weakened steel and each floor level weighing 100 tons or more, created a domino effect. With more than 20 floors above the impact points it would be over 5 million pounds. When they started dropping it picked up more weight as it hit each floor. Don't believe conspiracy theories. When bin laden left the US in 93 he said he take the WTC down someday.

Because thermite explosives were placed there by intelligence agents disguised as maintenance men. The planes themselves did little damage because the buildings were designed to take a direct hit from an airplane. At the right places and at the right time, the thermite took down all 3 buildings - including WTC 7 which wasn't even struck.

Controlled demolition. Otherwise it would have been IMPOSSIBLE for all of those buildings to fall so perfectly. Not to mention that WTC building 7 was NOT EVEN STRUCK by a plane. The "official story" on the WTC "attacks" and collapse is completely false. More and more people are discovering this. Read up.

very good thinking there is already a news around us that the government was aware of all those 7/11 incidents before itself to make the incident a great tragedy the government itself arranged for the demolision of the buildings think it white house,pentagon are the highly guraded and secured place in the world so . i think the building didnt collapse of its own due to the planes crash it was due to the explosives they might have placed in.............

The entire building caught fire in each tower which basically destroyed the structure of the buildings from the inside. Atfter that happened the buildings just fell.

My guess is that the buildings were hit or weakened at parts in some freakish way of nature strategically used by engineers for demolision. Neat huh?!

the fuel from the planes dripped down through out the building and with the explosion and debri falling downward the weight made it collapse.

Just a thought......
The gasoline for the airplanes obviously went down. My guess is that it had something to do with it.
Great question.
