It's like it crumbled into it's own footprint.

Check for thermite.

G.W. Bush must have planned this to make people think he didn’t intentionally cause 9/11.

I’m guessing the fire crews that belonged to that truck that was under the awning aren’t doing too good.

This is only the second time ever that fire has melted steel. Just ask Rosie.

I hope those men and women were pulled away from those trucks before the collapse. It covered the trucks in hot gases, flames and tons of debris. Prayers for those brave firefighters.

Steel does burn, iron powder is what makes the bright white sparkles in fireworks.

But in a building, when wood and other things that burn at high temperatures, if the steel frame of the building is not properly fireproofed, it softens, and eventually bends like spaghetti.

It was never in doubt.

It just needs a hot fire (just about anything but petroleum products)

Bububut buildings on fire can’t fall down unless they have been wired up to a secret detonator controlled by Geo. W. Bush and the Council on Council on Foreign Relations.

Notice that the failure point was down low on the bilding, and the tower came down as one whole piece!

As was obviously the case with the Twin Towers. I believe it was a spray application that was inadequate.
