I'm watching a program on the twin towers.

How did the building fall down like that when the plane hit the top. Was almost like a controlled demolition.

Most common thing I hear is the pancaking effect. Once it got rolling, the weight of the previous floors just owned the lower ones.

Now lets not jump to conclusions, I'm just interested in possible effects of how it toppled like that.

Why the twin towers and not a gay bar then?

>> No.1261722

impact shakes the building and destroys concrete mantles around steel cores, high heat causes them to weaken (not necessarily melt), result: shit be goin' down fast

>> No.1261748

Fuel from the planes combined with items within the area struck combined to make a large fire.
When steel is heated too much it bends, taking away the structural integrity of the floors above.
The floors above collapsed and every floor they hit on the way down added to the weight and the force causing it to collapse.

Well thanks for the answers guys, this documentaries pretty damn interesting, seeing the real life footage of the buildings coming down, the aftermath and the story of the people who lost family members etc. really puts the whole thing into perspective.

>> No.1261846

I once saw a video where the explosion actually happened the instant before the plane hit.
Anyone care to explain that to me, without shouting fake, I mean.
It's probably fake, but I want to know if there could be an explanation for such an event.

>> No.1261858

Snowball effect indeed.
Also i can't remember the name of the Institute but some group of scientists spent four years creating a computer program with steel strength, exact weight falling etc and showed exactly how it happened.
What's the name of the documentary btw?

>> No.1261869

Did the explosion happen at ground level or where the planes were about to hit?

Know what, OP? Your insinuation is right. It's clearly more likely that thousands of engineers, government employees, and scientists are all mutually conspiring to lie to us than it is that a handful of people on the internet are drawing bad conclusions from an incomplete understanding of the physics surrounding building collapse.

OP here, by saying it was like a controlled demolition I'm not being a conspiracy fag, I'm just describing what I though it looked like when it fell.

>> No.1261926

its ridiculous to think that this was a controlled demolition.

Do you idiots get all your info only from these kinds of programs?

>> No.1261930

Well, maybe if you paid attention in class, you'd know the unique architecture of the Towers meant the plane colliding into it caused the entire core support to fail, which meant the Tower hit by the plane collapsed under it's own weight

>> No.1261931

I'm pretty sure it was the Jews.

>> No.1261934

Srsly, though.
It DID look like one, doesn't mean it was one.

>> No.1261943

>>1261926

As I said above, I'm describing the way the building fell, I'm not saying it fell that way, the program also didn't say it was a controlled explosive, it was about the survivors stories, not hurr the jews did it.

>> No.1261944

glad people know 2 shits about the jews

>> No.1261951

OP said almost like a controlled demolition because it mainly fell downward into itself instead of collapsing sideways and leveling 5 blocks.
He's not saying the Jews did it but what it was similar to.

How it happened has already been explained according to physics in this thread.
And anyway, it was the Jews.

>> No.1261971

There are actually ex-government employees who say it was a controlled demolition.

We call them "furious attention whores". Read any review on Amazon.com involving loose change etc. and you'll run into two or three of them.

let's assume for the sake of trolling and without even paying attention to the "why didn't anyone notice miles of cable and dynamite all over the place" or, as this >>1261897 anon says, the need to shut up thousands of collaborators. Assuming thus that such an undertaking was indeed possible, why then pretend that the planes were responsible? Why not simply claim the terrorists had done a controlled demolition, since it's apparently so easy to do it unnoticed

I'm saying that the manner of the building falling looks similar in the manner that a building in a controlled explosion looks like. I didn't say it was a controlled explosion, I said the manner in which it fell was similar to it.

Read what I type before being a stupid faggot.

>> No.1262032

It takes nearly a year to even prepare a building 1/200th the size of the twin towers for a controlled demolition, exposing every support etc,
Conspirators say the government invented a new super chemical capable of burning through pure steel in mere seconds and that's why there is no explosives remains.

>> No.1262036

Why were some of the structural support beams severed in a perfect diagonal line?

Why was the building closed for a few days before the incident?

Why were there test being done that day, before the incident, on a "what if two planes hit the world trade center" type of scenario?

Why aren't they releasing the pentagon tapes?

Why a bunch of shit.

>Why a bunch of shit.

>> No.1262082

from what i remember from looking into this... the heat generated by the engine fuel was not nearly enough to weaken the steel structural beams, also It collapsed at an area that was not even close to the fire....

Pentagon tapes look like a rocket also. watch this video...

This made me tear up. You know that's wrong, yet you refuse to admit it. Why must you lie to yourself?

So the people in the imaginary plane that hit the pentagon were just rounded up by the government and killed in secret?

All I ask is that the government releases ONE video showing a plane hitting the pentagon. Don't even tell me that the shitty gas station camera is the only feed to a building like the pentagon that was around that side.

It has nothing to do with herp derp privacy or anything like that, I would just like to see the plane hitting the pentagon and it would shut up a lot of the 'conspiracy' questions.

The REAL question you should be asking yourself OP is whatdafuck was up with WTC building 7. nothing was said about this building's collapse. it wasn't damaged by the towers falling enough to cause structural collapse, not to mention fall into it's own footprint as in a controlled demolition.
