The conditions required for gravitational acceleration to occur have been known for centuries… ![]() The condition under which a body is, literally, free to fall under the influence of the local gravitational field with no resistance to its acceleration… ![]() The control that appears on the right in many of the animations is intended as a reminder of that, and also signals the beginning of a comparison… ![]() We can know with certainty in some cases (like this one) what conditions exist beneath an object (or building) as it falls… ![]() …even though we may not be able to see into the space beneath it as it does… ![]() Buckled columns, whether one or a hundred, whether one at a time or all at once (or any combination thereof) don’t just go from 100% to 0% _when_ they buckle, they steadily decrease in strength _while_ they buckle and that takes _time_. The mechanism of buckling (a mode of natural progressive structural failure), whether caused by heat… ![]() …or by overloading… ![]() …_absolutely_ cannot match or create the conditions required for gravitational acceleration to occur, it’s literally impossible. There is no such thing as _structural gravitational acceleration_… ![]() Some force must be introduced to quickly remove all support from beneath the literally falling visible upper part of the building seen in the video… ![]() The _progressive_ collapse of the building (NIST probable collapse sequence starting with column 79 on the left)… ![]() …that essentially happens _all at once_… ![]() …is _clearly_ physically inconsistent with what we _empirically know_ of natural progressive structural failure (defined as a time consuming process of individual/sequential/simultaneous failure involving one or a number of related structural components). It’s a physical impossibility for the lower part of the _asymmetrically_ damaged building (reportedly three core columns and nine perimeter columns)… ![]() …to have naturally progressively collapsed in _any_ way that could result in the upper part of the building _symmetrically_ descending straight down through itself (NIST probable collapse sequence starting with column 79 circled below) at anything _near_ gravitational acceleration for _any_ period of time. The scenario playing out below is an _absolute_ physical impossibility… ![]() …and there is _absolutely_ no mode or combination of modes of natural progressive structural failure driven _solely_ by gravity that can _ever_ give rise to the conditions required for free fall to have occurred at _any_ point during it’s descent… ![]() The scenario playing out below is an _absolute_ physical impossibility. Just as there is no such thing as _structural gravitational acceleration_, nor is there any known structural failure mode known as _natural progressive structural gravitational acceleration_… ![]() There is simply no point during a natural progressive gravity driven collapse of a steel frame skyscraper like this where one could say… **“Hold it… right there! That’s the point where all the _steel columns and structural components_ that were supporting the building _just a moment ago_ (with an area greater than that of a _football field_) will undoubtedly be found to be behaving in a manner _very much like air_ (below left). It will take _very careful calculation_ to tell the fall times apart during this _free fall_ period of the ongoing _progressive_ structural failure (below right)”…** ![]() For the 2.25 seconds (eight stories, approximately 105 feet) that we _know_ the upper part of the building _literally fell_ at gravitational acceleration it _cannot_ have been using _any_ of it’s potential energy to crush the building contents, columns and other structural components beneath it and undergo free fall _at the same time_ (as illustrated by this frangible impedance scenario)… ![]() It’s _physically impossible_ for the lower _asymmetrically_ damaged part of the building to have naturally progressively collapsed in a way that could result in the upper part of the building actually _accelerating_ as it descended symmetrically straight down through itself, through the path of greatest resistance (below right), and then, driven on _solely_ by gravity, actually _continue_ to accelerate so nearly to gravitational acceleration (below left) as to require _very careful calculation_ for any difference between the two to be detected. The scenario playing out below is an _absolute_ impossibility… ![]() Some _other force_ powerful enough to quickly remove _all support_ from beneath the upper part of the building as it descended _must_ be introduced to explain the observed rate of descent during the 2.25 second period of gravitational acceleration. For the 2.25 seconds that the building _iliterally fell_ at gravitational acceleration, no _other force_ powerful enough to quickly remove _all support_ from beneath the upper part of the building was seen to be introduced from _outside_ the building, and no _other force_ powerful enough to quickly remove _all support_ from beneath the upper part of the building is known to have existed _inside_ the building as an element or normal function of its infrastructure. For a load supported by a column to descend at gravitational acceleration, all support _must_ be quickly removed, there’s _absolutely_ no other way. It _must_ be knocked out, pulled out, blown out, vaporized, etc. Since no eight story tall boulders were seen rumbling through Manhatten that day that could have quickly _knocked_ out all support… ![]() …and no suspicious looking Frenchmen were spotted rigging for verinage (another form of controlled demolition) the night before that could have quickly _pulled_ out the support… ![]() …and no bombs or rockets were seen to be dropped on/fired at it that could have quickly _blown_ out all support… ![]() …and no giant laser beams or other secret weapons were being tested in the area that could have quickly _vaporized_ all support… ![]() …and no _other force_ capable of quickly removing all support from beneath the upper part of the building existed in the building as a normal function of it’s infrastructure (blue)… ![]() …it _naturally_ follows that whatever the _other force_ was that _must_ be introduced to explain the observed 2.25 seconds of descent at gravitional acceleration, it _must_ have been introduced some time _before_ the event, and unless someone can show how the _other force_ that _must_ be introduced either _during_ or just _before_ the collapse of the building was introduced from _outside_ the building, or that it was already existing _inside_ the building as a normal function of it’s infrastructure, the process of elimination really leaves _only one_ possible explanation for the building’s behaviour. Some energetic material powerful enough to quickly remove all support from beneath the upper part of the building during the 2.25 second period of gravitational acceleration _must_ have been physically transported _inside_ the building some time _before_ the event, it _had_ to be _brought_ in. The explosion model is the _only_ one… ![]() …that can _realistically_ match and empirically be _expected_ to create the conditions that we _know_ must have existed… ![]() …beneath the _literally falling_ visible upper part of the building during its observed largely symmetrical descent at gravitational acceleration for approximately 105 feet in 2.25 seconds… ![]() The undisputed (both the NIST and independent researchers alike agree) confirmed observation of a significant well defined period of gravitational acceleration… ![]() …means that an explosion, or a number of explosions, _must_ have occurred that was powerful enough to quickly remove _all support_ from beneath the upper part of the building (below right), either all at once or incrementally in advance of its descent, permitting it to descend at gravitational acceleration for the observed period and under the conditions required (below left) for free fall to occur… ![]() **The building was brought down by explosives.** ---

Aemilius, I think this all hinges on what reasonably counts as justification for belief that the collapse was physically impossible without further interference (for want of a better way of putting it). Any conspiracy theory on this is highly improbable and so unless the evidence for the collapse being physically impossible is really good the conspiracy theories are probably wrong. I don’t know anything like enough about physics to make any judgement on the physically impossible theory but there are lots of physicists in a better position to do so and as far as I know there is only a fringe minority who think it was physically impossible. So I’m justified in believing the consensus is right on this. Unless one is an expert physicist this is as much about philosophy (epistemology) as it is about physics. ---

Well put Stephen. You balance probabilities and account for the validity of a consensus opinion among experts. Amelius dismisses other opinions and relies on the lack of 100% provability. This is pretty much the gap between every reasonable person and conspiracy theorists everywhere, whether it be secret governments or should you eat bacon. What Amelius really misses is, what’s he doing here? If he has valid analysis, why bring it to a general discussion forum? At least a physics forum. Really, it should go to a peer reviewed journal, but let’s not get far down that road. ---

Amelius - I for one appreciate the time you spent in your post. To my mind your post just adds to the overwhelming evidence that it was an inside job. Unfortunately the time’s past when further discussion will do any good. Cheney and his ilk has gotten away with it. And as you’re seeing in this thread, for some reason otherwise rational people can easily be swayed to think wrongly once a label of “conspiracy” is effectively applied to something. In any other scenario they’d question the official story, and think they’re even being patriotic in doing so. But in this case that goes out the window. I suggest for your own sake you take this elsewhere, to a more specific forum, where there might be more open minds to discuss your material with. Oh, and to top it off, the owner of WTC7 was Jewish. Nothing wrong with that at all, except if you try to insinuate that he was involved, you’ll instantly be charged with anti-Semitism. ---

"Science is a continuous challenge of common sense, and the core of science is not certainty, it's continuous uncertainty." Carlos Rivelli Hmm... that physicist sounds a bit agnostic to me. I don't care to see a debate about the Law of Conservation of Energy, as I probably wouldn't understand much of it. As to "an empirically verifiable scientific method driven graphical target system analysis and conclusion arrrived at by process of elimination", that sounds suspiciously like something that you personally may have come up with. It sounds impressive. But, I understand that the emperor's new clothes were also quite impressive. As to your mandate to go read something else "like a normal person", are you suggesting that your thread here is exclusively for abnormal persons? Or are you suggesting that my participation in this thread is abnormal? Either way, I will continue with this thread, for the time being. As to your assertion that you have made no claim, uh... you claimed that you have shown with certainty that explosives were introduced in certain floors of the towers, some time prior to the plane collisions, and that those explosives went off and caused the building to fall as it did. So, as I see it, you made a rather significant claim. Then you claimed that you made no claim. That's not good. ---

Good score Lausten! ~ ~ ~ "In every photo and every video, you can see columns far outpacing the collapse of the building. Not only are the columns falling faster than the building but they are also falling faster than the debris cloud which is ALSO falling faster than the building. This proves the buildings fell well below free fall speed. That is, unless the beams had a rocket pointed to the ground. Just look at any video you like and watch the perimeter columns. Deceptive videos stop the timer of the fall at 10:09 when only the perimeter column hits the ground and not the building itself. If you notice, the building just finishes disappearing behind the debris cloud which is still about 40 stories high. Below is a more accurate graphic using a paper written by Dr. Frank Greening which can be found at: www (dot) 911myths.com/WTCREPORT(dot)pdf" What about them apples Aemilius? ---

You could hardly hit a building in New York that isn't at least partly owned by a Jewish person. The WTC was owned by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, two state governmental entities. Even if it had been owned by a Jewish person, what would that have to do with a conspiracy to bring down the towers? In addition neither you nor anyone else has identified the so called conspirators. Who were they? I'd wager you have no more evidence for a conspiracy or who perpetrated it than you have that explosives were planted to bring the buildings down. You are living in a fantasy world. Everyone involved in a conspiracy had to know tha jets were going to run into the twin towers at the same time. Why would they think they had to risk their lives planting explosives? Wouldn't the jets do enough damage? Why would anybody want to bring down the WTC anyway? What was it supposed to accomplish? The only people who had a rationale were religious terrorists. Who else stood to gain? And what was gained? They created death, destruction and chaos in one small part of the country. Did it somehow damage the United States government or the US population? Could it have? There was absolutely no purpose in it except religious terrorism. Lois ---

> Amelius - I for one appreciate the time you spent in your post. To my mind your post just adds to the overwhelming evidence that it was an inside job. Unfortunately the time's past when further discussion will do any good. Cheney and his ilk has gotten away with it. And as you're seeing in this thread, for some reason otherwise rational people can easily be swayed to think wrongly once a label of "conspiracy" is effectively applied to something. In any other scenario they'd question the official story, and think they're even being patriotic in doing so. But in this case that goes out the window. I suggest for your own sake you take this elsewhere, to a more specific forum, where there might be more open minds to discuss your material with. Oh, and to top it off, the owner of WTC7 was Jewish. Nothing wrong with that at all, except if you try to insinuate that he was involved, you'll instantly be charged with anti-Semitism.

You missed my point, which was - if someone were to imply that the owner was involved, charges of anti-Semitism would spring up immediately. That was a warning to the OP. As for the rest, well you'll just need to do the reading yourself. Start with the Shock Doctrine, and then imagine the same technique applied to the US, then also read up on PNAC. Just because Cheney and his ilk are evil doesn't mean they're stupid. Read Confessions of an Economic Hitman too. You'll quickly realize there ARE in fact groups of people out there working to undermine entire countries for reasons that have nothing to do with religion. In fact they use religious zealots as willing handmaidens. Do the reading.
