by Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth Slide 358: A Precedent for "Top Down Demolition" NIST states that controlled demolitions only start at the bottom. From the DVD: "9/11 Mysteries" Slide 359: "... the words of a senior blaster:" "We blow the basement, all the columns in the basement. Then we crack it up at the top to get it started. We go every other floor ... all the way down. Every explosive has a timer on it -- that's why it's 'controlled.' When the columns go, each floor goes down and impacts the one below, and keeps going." -- Demolitions expert. Mark Loizeauxis president of a company called Controlled Demolition: "You don't have to go to the top floor. You can go almost anywhere in the structure, and given the right circumstances, you can release all of that stored energy, converting it into what's called "kinetic energy." That's energy in motion. And that's what brings the building down." A 3-story top-down controlled demolition:

Slide 363: "Pile driver" Self-Destructs in 4 Seconds Note that the 15-story "pile driver" is disintegrating on many floors at once -- reducing itself by 1/2 of its height before the demolition wave starts traveling down the building below the impact zone of the airplane.
Slide 364:
"Unexpected to many of us in terms of how swiftly it happened, they came down." Slide 365: Same as Slide 363. Slide 366: North Tower Explosions
Note the explosions racing down the facade of the building emitting squibs below. Slide 367:
Slide 368: South Tower -- Note multiple independent explosions blowing the mass outside of the building EuroNews FLASH, World Trade Center, New York Slide 369:
"The entire building has just collapsed as if a demolition team set off, when you see the old demolitions of these old buildings, it folded down on itself and it is not there anymore." Slide 370: The Explosive Demolition Hypothesis 2. Straight-Down, Symmetrical Progression OUTSIDE Footprint Slide 371: FEMA: Primary Debris Field is 1,200 ft. in Diameter
Everything is blown outside the Towers' footprint Slide 372: FEMA: Primary Debris Field is 1,200 ft. in Diameter
Slide 373: Debris Filled the Entire WTC Complex and Beyond
The debris field was 20 times the area of the footprint of the two towers. Slide 374: 3. Squibs: Explosive Charges Visible at LOWER FLOORS Slide 375: From "Loose Change, Second Edition" WTC Squibs -- Explosive Ejections
Slide 376: "In all the videos of the collapses, explosions can be seen bursting from the building 20-30 stories below the demolition wave.

"Squibs" -- at WTC 2
Slide 382: Squib Velocities are "Explosive" Moreover, a "piston effect" from a falling floor pushing air out of the building would tend to have a uniform air pressure and blow out most of the windows on the floors(s)

Slide 384: "As the South Tower begins to explode, we track two squibs near the bottom of the frame. They shoot out quickly at first, then slow and merge in with the rest of the dust cloud.
Using the first few data points, we see that the first squib shoots out at 44.98 M/sec., or about 100 mph.
Doing the same for the second squib, we get a speed of 56.3 M/sec., which works out closer to 126 mph." Slide 385: 4. Near Free-Fall Pace Through Path of Greatest Resistance Slide 386: Nearly Free Fall Speed of Collapse Free-Fall Speed in a vacuum - 9.2 s.
From "Loose Change -- Second Edition" Slide 387: "Galileo's Law of Falling Bodies calculates the time in which an object will travel a certain distance in complete free-fall. Distance (D) = 16.08 X Seconds Squared. The South Tower was 1,362 feet tall. 1,362 = 16.08 x 85.7 or 9.2 Seconds.
The Twin Towers came down in nearly free-fall speed." Slide 388: A 9/11 Story Problem: Which 15 story building hits the ground first?

Slide 404: Lateral Ejection: Massive Steel Assemblies Hurled 500' Slide 405 From DVD: "9/11 Mysteries" "Now let's look at the collapse of the Twin Towers. We are seeing explosions rather than implosions, a first in demolition history. A sequenced rumble becomes a roar as debris is thrown outward. The damage is not contained. Even the windows are blown from neighborhood buildings. What kind of energy enabled this? A FEMA photographer taking pictures of Ground Zero wondered why so many steel beams were jutting from neighborhood buildings. What shot pieces of the Towers all the way across the street?"

The Physics of Lateral Ejections Slide 410:
David Chandler, Physics / Math Teacher Slide 411: "Girders weighing several tons were found 600 feet from the base of the North Tower. How fast they were ejected depends on where they originated. If they came from high in the building, they were thrown outwards at about 50 mph. If they came from lower down, the speed had to be even greater. Gravity alone cannot account for such high lateral ejection speeds." Slide 412: The Physics of Lateral Ejections David Chandler, Physics / Math Teacher
Slide 413: "Using special software, we can analyze motion on video clips frame by frame. I have placed markers on each frame so we can track a particular projectile.
From the markers we can get a data table and plot various graphs. The data here shows that the object we are tracking was shot horizontally at over 70 mph. The energy needed to hurl a 4-ton girder at this speed is comparable to the energy needed to hurl a 200-pound cannonball three miles. Slide 414:
Enough energy in each WTC ejection to fire a 200 lb. cannon ball 3 miles? Slide 415: How about those Pancakes?

There are no large chunks of concrete found on the surface at Ground Zero -- only shredded structural steel. Slide 420: Pyroclastic Dust Clouds
Jeff King, Doctor / Scientist, MIT "One of the most significant things to my thinking that indicates that this could not have been the sort of collapse that we are told it was is the presence of the dust clouds. And, as you've seen in the pictures, and I'm sure all of us have seen probably more than we would like, there were very very large clouds of very thick dust that enveloped the area, that crossed the river, that made it almost all the way to New Jersey from the pictures that I've seen. This type of flow is something we are familiar with in physics. It occurs in only two situations that we know of, naturally. One is in volcanic eruptions, where a large amount of material is suddenly exploded into the air, and basically forms small particles. The other situation is something called turbidity currents. These occur along the edges of the continental shelves where mud or sediment will slump and become suspended in water. And the common thread is you have large amounts of a dense material that is suspended very quickly in a fluid, thereby creating another denser fluid, which is in effect the dust cloud. And that fluid can achieve considerable velocities. The problem with creating this sort of slurry of fine particles is that there really is no mechanism that has been proposed. We have concrete floors with carpeting or flooring over them. We have furniture. We have floors that are basically coming together in a collapse. But the concrete is basically protected under these layers. Early in the collapse, in the very first moments, we see these thick clouds being ejected at very high speed. They are clearly dense because they flow downward, and become part of this large overall pyroclastic flow. What we're basically being told is that concrete sort of jumped up into mid-air and exploded itself, and then was ejected as the floors came together. Not a very plausible mechanism but I have yet to hear of anything else proposed to explain it. From quite a few people on the scene we have been told that the powder represented most of the concrete. That the amount of intact, macroscopic chunks of concrete on the scene were negligible. Basically, everything was reduced to powder. And incidentally, we also know that other things besides concrete were reduced to powder. We know that contents of computers, exotic metals from computer chips, these sorts of things were also identified in the dust and in very small particles, generally on the order of less than 100 microns in diameter. So we have a real issue of mechanism as far as what in the process of this collapse could cause so many things to be pulverized. Slide 422: N.Y. Governor Pataki -- "Pulverized Concrete" Slide 423:
"And you look and you see there's no concrete. There's very little concrete. All you see is a ____." "What happened to the concrete?" "The concrete was pulverized. And I was down here on Tuesday, and it was like you were on a foreign planet. All of lower Manhattan -- not just this site -- from river to river there was dust, powder, two to three inches thick. The concrete was just pulverized." Slide 424:
Pulverization of the Concrete A striking feature of the Twin Towers' destruction was the pulverization of most of the concrete into gravel and dust before it hit the ground. This is evident from the explosive mushrooming of the towers into vast clouds of concrete as they fell. Virtually no large pieces of concrete were found at Ground Zero, only twisted pieces of steel. Estimates put the size of the dust particles in the ten-to-100-micron range -- the width of a human hair. Slide 425: [Joe Casaliggi, Engine 7] "You have two 110-story office buildings -- you don't find a desk, you don't find a chair, you don't find a telephone, a computer.
The biggest piece of a telephone I found was half of the keypad, and it was about this big.
The buildings collapsed to dust." Slide 426:
The Wall of Concrete Clouds Then Traveled Outward Across the River. Slide 427:
9/11/01 -- A Typical Street in Downtown Manhattan Mostly unburned paper mixes with the dust of the top half of the Twin Towers. This is all that is left of the concrete floors, gypsum wall board, steel decking, office furniture, office machinery, filing cabinets. The dust averages 4" deep. Most of the 6" curb appears filled in. Slide 428:

Massive Pulverization Lt. Kenneth Christiansen, Ladder Company 5, Greenwich Village
"What I expected to see was nothing like what I actually did see at the time of my arrival at the site.
There wasn't much that you could say, that you could describe. Everything was dust and metal. There was no typewriters, no chairs. There was no nothing." Slide 433:

Slide 436:
In April, 2006, New Yorkers were distressed to learn that bone fragments, human remains from 9/11, had been found on the roof of the nearby Deutsche Bank Building. "And how, in God's name, did those fragments get there?" "It surprised me that there were still bone fragments or human remains that had not been discovered."
"How is it possible, that after five years, they are finally looking on the rooftops of the Deutsche building. I mean, that's crazy!" |
