So, if explosives were used there must have been numerous witnesses who heard the sound ?
Moving the Goal post. Ever seen thermite in use? Not explosive but like a quickly burning candle.

Your reasoning is to ignore the direct evidence (presence of thermite and melted steel) and base everything on what people heard or didn’t hear. Odd.

LOL, I am just asking a question. And I ignore nothing. I have zero knowledge how these 3 buildings came down. It is suggested explosive were used to down the 3 buildings. So my question is a logical one.

When bolts shear you always hear a loud "bang." Because of the number of bolted connections on each floor in the twin towers, the resulting "bang" of the bolts shearing would have been quite loud.

She wouldn't make a very good judge, only listens to one side and then warns me about using personal attacks when I never did. Pfft whatever.
I warned both you and @Jay Ross because you two were squabbling about who attacked who, and it seemed like it would never end.

Good point. If many explosives were used, as some claim, that would have been tremendously loud.

A layman question, if explosives were used, there must have been remains (evidence) left in the ruins.

True or false ?

True. Two pieces of evidence was found in the wreckage that prove demo charges were used.

Thermite was found in the wreckage. The only possible explanation for this is the use of demo charges.

Molten metal was found in the wreckage. No building or outside fire can melt structural steel. Not even with jet fuel. Molten metal in the wreckage can only be from demo charges.

This short 4 minute video explains


So, if explosives were used there must have been numerous witnesses who heard the sound ?

True. Many witnesses report hearing explosions

One video is of the news on TV saying that people heard explosions. The other two are of individual witnesses who heard explosions.




That's some damning evidence.

Another piece of evidence comes from the observation and study of other building catastrophes.

No building has ever free fallen onto its own footprint without demo charges.

We've seen planes hit buildings before, we've seen worse fires with whole buildings engulfed in flames. But none of them collapsed

When buildings have been badly damaged on one side we see that the structure above the damage tips over.

So observations tell us that a building cannot free fall onto its own footprint without demo charges.

Another line of evidence is in the physics of the collapse. It collapsed at a gravitational acceleration, basically a free fall. Without demo charges this is impossible. Colums would of provided resistance and decelerated the collapse.

Another line of evidence is that concrete was pulverised in the world trade center. Only possible with demo charges. The pictures above of collapsed buildings doesn't show its concrete being pulverised, it shows large sections still in tact.

Another line of evidence is the fact that thousands of experts don't agree with the mainstream explanation. This kind of opposition is unheard of in engineering.

And that's only the ones that signed this petition.

I can't remember explosions were reported in the media, especially for the collapse wtc7.
