Astonishing! Many of the responses here are great!
I watched those buildings go up. My next door neighbor was a construction worker. I was in the city many times looking at the site.
You can't get a sense of how massive these buildings were without being inside them.
To say that planes and some small amount of fire brought two buildings down at free fall speed; shattering a MASSIVE (welded) steel core structure, and a similarly MASSIVE outer core (welded) structure, splintering desks into fragments smaller than pencils, ripping apart massive plumbing, electrical, concrete floors and many more things PLUS EJECTING Steel Beams that weighed as much as a commercial air liner UP and AWAY more than three football fields in length is not only ludicrous it's asinine!
For those of you that don't understand the construction of the Towers, let me paint the simplest picture I can w/respect to the WTC construction using regular every day things.
The MASIVE inner core is a heavy duty 1" steel pipe that's 2' tall.
The floors are Dunkin Donuts (cake type)
Outer Core is a metal stove pipe that surrounds the donuts.
The donuts (floors) are connected by melted chocolate on all the edges of the donuts that touch the pipe and the stove pipe that has cooled and hardened. (welds)
Ok add some heat and chocolate melts a little and some donuts start slip.
But, ALL 110 floors would have to slip uniformly to pancake. In other words the chocolate would have to melt on EVERY FLOOR for the pancake lie to work. If part of a donut doesn't want to go it will stick.
But that's not the important question. The donuts (floors) could be falling and pancaking.
But the big question is: What's causing the SOLID STEEL pipe and stove pipe to be blasted into tiny fragments? That's the key issue right there. Not to mention all of floors disintegrating.
We see collapsed buildings from MASSIVE earthquakes. Gravity just pulls things down. Plumbing, wiring, desks, chairs, coffee makers, carpet, phones and everything else isn't pulverized into tiny bits, its just crushed. There was not one intact desk, chair, phone or any other recognizable thing except for the sheets of paper that flew out of the building on the initial strike and the pristine passports that were found at the scene.
What happened to the WTC towers is physically impossible according to the LAWS OF PHYSICS without the aid of Explosives.
What caused WTC7 to fall?
Larry Silverstein bought the property several months before and insured the towers for 7 BILLION dollars (which he collected) for the exact thing that happened on 9/11. On PBS he stated publicly, regarding WTC7 "I remember getting a call from the fire department commander, telling me that they were not sure they were gonna be able to contain the fire, and I said, 'We've had such terrible loss of life, maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it.' And they made that decision to pull and then we watched the building collapse." -Larry Silverstein. Pulling a building is a DEMOLITION TERM!
A brief timeline:
July 24, 2001: Larry Silverstein's $3.2 billion 99-year lease of the WTC is finalized. Silverstein hopes to win $7 billion in insurance from the destruction of the WTC towers.
Sept 11, 2001: Recovery experts extract data from 32 WTC computer drives revealing a surge in financial transactions. Illegal transfers of over $100 million may have been made through some WTC computer systems immediately before and during the disaster.
Sept 11, 2001: In what the government describes as a bizarre coincidence, a US intelligence agency (the National Reconnaissance Office or NRO) was all set for an exercise at 9 AM on September 11th in which an aircraft would crash into one of its buildings near Washington, DC. Four war games were also in progress at the time of the attacks.
Sept 11, 2001: The entire continental United States is defended by only seven air bases and 14 military jets.

Look at fires from other skyscrapers:

And see if the WTC fires in the towers compared to any of those.
I could write another 10,000 words. But I'll leave you with this tought.
Take a rock and drop from your extended hand; from any height you want. That's how fast the buildings fell. As fast as gravity pulls a rock down through the air.
Some great sites and videos.
