You people are so cute. Why is is so implausible? A plane going hundreds of mph hits a building with immense force, said building catches on fire. Fire spreads, destroys intregrity of said building, building collapses as upper floors crush lower floors.

What about this is so difficult to believe?

the build oil ng stood For an hour before it suddenly collapsed entirely like a controlled demolition. During that hour, the only fire and smoke came from the point of impact spanning maybe several floors at most, the rest of the building was unaffected, so the only structural compromise was in around the 70th floor. So unless that smoldering fire somehow teleported to the bottom of the building and still remained completely invisible from the outside, how could the building just die like that? If you set a tree branch on fire, does the whole tree suddenly fall down? No.

Your understanding of physics is flawed in this instance. One cannot compare a tree to the twin towers. Even the largest trees in the world never reached the height and weight of the twin towers.

The fire didn't ONLY damage the buildings structure with its actual burning capability. It also damaged the buildings structure with the tremendous HEAT it generated. If it was JUST the burning, the building might not have fallen. But the heat actually made the beams and internal structure "wobbly", not quite "melting", but on its way towards that.

So there was this huge part of the middle of each building that was in that wobbly almost melted state. The upper part no longer had support and fell on the lower part which fell under the sudden weight and kinetic energy. All the weight that was above the "70th floor" you mention was more that enough to do the trick.

I don't see why that's hard to believe.
