Ok, explain this. How would a controlled demolition speed up the fall of the building?
You are trying to use physics to say that the building fell too fast. However, you are neglecting to try to use physics to explain how a controlled demolition could have caused it to behave differently.
Also, you are ignoring that no one reported that there was a crew of people tearing out walls inside the towers for over a month and wiring explosives. A controlled demolition is not something that can be covertly done on something as large as the twin towers. There were too many people in there and there should be plenty of witnesses who can describe all of this stuff going on. However, these people are saying nothing. Why? Because they did not see anything. There were no explosives placed in the buildings.

The buildings did not fall at free fall speeds.
The fall time was analyzed by NIST (National Institute of Science & Technology) , which used seismic recorders & other techniques to measure the fall time. Their results:
1. The exterior panels took 9-11 seconds. They fell this fast because they were not impeded by anything & this is perfectly normal.
2. The inner parts of WTC 1&2 (roughly 60 stories of WTC 1 and 40 stories of WTC 2) stood 15 to 25 seconds after collapse initiation before they, too, began to collapse. This is far slower than a free-fall.
You can read this in NIST’s own words at Point 6 at http://wtc.nist.gov/pubs/factsheets/faqs_8_2006.htm
----------------------------------------
I’ll add 2 more points to help clarify things:
===CONCRETE NOT PULVERIZED
CLAIM: Because there was such a large dust cloud when the towers fell, that this must mean that everything was pulverized by the bombs which brought down the towers.
REALITY: Whenever a building or stadium collapses, you get a large dust cloud, no matter what the cause. So the question becomes, was the dust cloud too big when WTC1&2 collapsed? Only an expert can tell you whether the cloud was more consistent with bombs than a collapse.
Fortunately, we have experts who have analyzed the collapse. Moreover, they published their findings for all to see in an article in the leading demolition journal, ImplosionWorld. They say the collapse did not look like a “controlled demolition.” See Point #1 in:
http://www.implosionworld.com/Article-WTC%20STUDY%208-06%20w%20clarif%20as%20of%209-8-06%20.pdf
How on earth can you challenge these experts????
===PENTAGON HIT BY PLANE, NOT MISSLE
(1) Dozens, if not hundreds, of people stuck on I-395 saw the low-flying plane & their testimony is well-documented in the press. There's of list of them, with their names & where they were quoted in Wikipedia, “American Airlines Flight 77”:
(2) Clear wreckage of a plane was found & photographs were printed in all the papers. Here's a nice photo from 9/11 that clearly shows plane wreckage:
http://www.popularmechanics.com/technolo...
(scroll down after clicking). Many engine parts were found.
(3)Yes, the hole in the Pentagon was somewhat smaller than the diameter of the plane. This is explained by Professor Mere Sozen, a “Kettelhut Distinguished Professor Civil Engineering” at Perdue University. Sozen says that it’s the energy of the plane, not its size that determines the size of the hole. The plane is not a cartoon character that punches out its outline. Moving at 531 MPH it more fluid than solid and this explains why you get the hole you got. (Sozen quoted from Pop Mech book).
(4) The competing theory, that American Airlines Flight 77 disappeared into thin air with all its passengers, is not too convincing.

I love this. Yes, it was a controlled demolition. When the towers were built, the Government, with its time travelling technology that those evil Government Employees have hidden from us, knew that the towers would get hit by two commercial aircraft and they smuggled tons of C-4 into the past and, without any civilians finding out, they placed the C-4 into the towers. Then the aliens from Roswell came and put a spell of invisibility over the C-4 packages. Then the Government Employed Mind Readers went to the middle-east, no wait, they forced their mind waives into the middle east, found Bin Laden, and implanted the plans for him to attack the towers. BRILLIANT!!!!

I disagree with your idea (I don't think 9/11 was in any way different than how it has been presented) but am certainly a subscriber to many conspiracy theories involving our government. The question is, if you feel that your eyes have been opened and you have good information to substantiate your claims-what will you do with that information? Knowledge is useless unless you apply it to something. Everyone has the power to change the world and you already have a leg up in that you are looking past what is presented to you.

Well, I would not like to beleive it. But my gut from that very day told me different.
I would hope you read this article and the blogs.
http://www.motherjones.com/news/featurex/2007/09/homeland-insecurity-myths-and-facts.html
How do you explain that numerous people including our very own then SF Mayor Willie Brown was told not to fly that day? Has anyone ever looked into that? And the debris from the collapse of the three buildings was pulverized? Thermite? Never has been a steel framed building anywhere except there on that day which has burned and collapsed so perfectly....or that Rumsfield had slipped and said 'when the missile hit the building' right after the Pentagon attack (There was a dearth of visible debris on the relatively unmarked [Pentagon] lawn, where I stood only minutes after the impact. Beyond this strange absence of airliner debris, there was no sign of the kind of damage to the Pentagon structure one would expect from the impact of a large airliner. This visible evidence or lack thereof may also have been apparent to the secretary of defense [Donald Rumsfeld], who in an unfortunate slip of the tongue referred to the aircraft that slammed into the Pentagon as a "missile". ... http://www.patriotsquestion911.com/

I think you conspiricy theorists need to seek psychiatric medical attention fast. The twin towers were hit by airplanes hijacked by islamic nutbuckets. Get some help pal.

the reason the tower fell so fast was because the engineers and architects didnt account for burning jet fuel as factor in the design. it was overlooked. i mean who could have thought of an airplane hitting a building.i mean the towers were designed in the early 1960's & commercial jet planes werent available in the US until 1952. what would the government have to gain from this? A reason to start war?they already have one. these terrorist are killing innocent families because they dont agree with their psychotic ways. Im speaking of the Islamic Irrationalists.
