I am not a conspiracy theorist and do not subscribe to any of the 9/11 nonsense about what took place -
I think a bunch of people hijacked some planes and two of them crashed into the twin towers. The heat from the crash burned the steel and the building came down. One floor crashing on top of the other, creating a pancake effect.
That being said, does anyone out there have a good expanation as to why Tower 7 fell down the same way?
If it were on fire, there was no jet fuel, so the steel would not have burned.
If it got hit with falling debris from the towers, then why did no other buildng collapse, and why did it fall exactly the same way as the towers. Pancake style.
Looking forward to a valid explanation that will put my mind at ease -
Thanks,

First of all it didn't fall exactly the same way. It basically collapsed in a falling over manner due to damage sustained from the WTC tower falling onto it and fatally damaging its structural integrity. Fire was involved from the debris from the same WTC tower. The fires that were buring in the towers didn't just go out when they fell. Jet fuel and burning debris landed on building 7 and did similar damage to it that happened to the main WTC tower. The combination of the fires and structural damage cause the structure to fail similar to how the towers failed, but not exactly the same. Pay no attention to the conspiracy nutjobs.

Tower 7 was the emergency response control center for NYC established after the bombing of the WTC in 1993 under the administrationof Rudi Guiliani. It had several tons of deisel fuel in steel tanks to run generators should power be cut in the city. When the planes hit on 9/11, this fuel caught fire and, along with collatoral damage, caused the building to collapse (right around Rudi's head, so to speak). In yet another interesting Rudi/Tower 7 factoid, the Fire Department had been calling for years for better communication equipment - not the walkie talkie systems they were using, as they knew that when there were inside concrete and steel structures communication was crap. Instead of putting money into that, the city put money into Tower 7's control center.

first of all, construction 7 contained a power plant. that means there have been giant open factors interior so flames would desire to flow rapidly. It additionally shows that there replaced into as quickly as incredibly assorted diesel gasoline saved interior the construction. Diesel gas merely isn't all that plenty unique than jet gas. the two burn at 550 ranges F. Secondly, steel does now no longer would desire to soften to lose its stress. each and every guy or woman looks to desire to chat relating to the steel melting. It did no longer. whether if youin case you heat steel, it loses its temper and for that reason assorted its stress. as an occasion, you may take a particularly enormous piece of steel rod and initiate bending it back and forth. once you first initiate, it is amazing stressful to do, whether as you look after doing it, you will locate which you will bend it in basic terms slightly bit greater each and every time. whilst, on the element the place you're bending it, it gets warmth. carry it up and appealing right away which you will harm that rod suited in one million/2 of. Thirdly, many sort new structures are made with vulnerable hyperlinks. look on the bridge up in Minneapolis, MN that without warning collapsed. One connector plate broke and while that went, the full bridge fell down. Or the suspended bridges on the motel in Kansas city. One weld joint gave and for this reason, all different weld joints gave way and the two between the bridges fell, killing thousands and thousands. Many modern structures are like that still, progressed ONE flooring AT A TIME. each and every flooring has to help its very own weight plus the load of the flooring above. If flooring can no longer help itself, it is going and so does each and every thing above it. finally, so which you desperate a video of one million construction that did no longer supply way in a fire. in keeping with the Architectural Engineers on the cyber web web site under, the full conspiracy element is stupid.

It doesn't suprise me that it fell. Looking at the rubble after words, I'm actually surprised more problems didn't come from the trade center collapse. I think if you try to dig up some of the news programs from those days. There might be some more info. Because, at the time it didn't seem odd that WTC 7 fell.

I honestly believe that it is a clever, well organized conspiracy between Bush, Cheney,Blair, and Potter. Harry Potter. Is it merely a coincidence that both Blair and Potter hail from the UK? I think not....

Exatcly why you should belevie the Goverment Pre-Chewed Story
it was staged by intellegience fro mthe US
it was all a big plan for big ol money hungry bush to go to the oil land to get is black liquid gold
it was staged and therefore there was a probelm in the orgunal plan where there should of been a prelude to the collapse of tower 7 but then....there wasent and it came down anyways
IF YOUR A GOVERNEMENT BELEIVER
the nthe story is
the vibration from the other towers would of cause its collapse from the bottom up....
but i mean...common
they had made it EARTHQUAKE PROOF anyhow
but yeah thats what there feeding you through CNN
enjoy your life as a NON-CONSPIRICIS
i mean if your gonna beleive all the goverment tell you....
your in for a hella-ride
enjoy
p.s. im a welder/metal expert and it is impossible for it to have collapse do to the surroundign heat....
beleive me...IMPOSSIBLE

Honestly, I believe it was the control center for the implosion of the towers. It sounds like a conspiracy theory but what other explanation is there? It wasn't hit by a plane, it wasn't exposed to severe heat and it wasn't hit by massive chunks of debris. What better way is there to destroy the evidence of a controlled destruction that brought the towers down?

It was either a CIA or FBI building full of top secret material. Our government demolished the building to destroy all the records before they fell into the "wrong" hands... It's a standard procedure in situations like that... as far as I know, no one died from the demolition of Building 7...
