Pt. 2: Controlled Demolition at WTC 100% IMPOSSIBLE

We now continue here with "Part 2" from the last post on why controlled demolition at the World Trade Center Twin Towers would have been absolutely impossible.

Conspiracy theorists argue that the "official" or public account of the 9/11 attacks on the United States by Al Qaeda (do not fit together or have questions or holes in the story. (This is not a "government" story because the public told the government what happened on 9/11.)

But they never stop to ask whether their own theories make any more sense. Unless their theories make more sense, than their imagined problems with the public account are not relevant. In fact, the conspiracy theories about 9/11 make absolutely no sense at all.

As explained in Part 1, controlled demolition would require at least 22,050 explosives or other demolition devices to destroy each of the 268 steel support columns around the outside (perimeter) of the building plus 47 support columns inside the building.

Because each floor -- individually -- began to move only when hit by the falling mass dropping from above, each floor would have to be handled individually. We do not see any floor moving below the line of the falling mass hitting it. We do not see more than one (1) floor moving at a time. We do not see a group of floors moving together. Therefore, each floor would need to be wired separately. If we assume at least 70 floors were wired below the aircraft impact zone, that is (268 +47) * 70 = 22,050 demolition devices.

Note that the perimeter columns supported the weight of the building. The interior columns prevented the building from swaying horizontally, side to side. So, demolition could not be accomplished by destroying only the interior columns. Furthermore, the interior columns were off-center. So the building would have fallen over if it could have been brought down only by destroying the interior columns. And of course the nuts depend upon the myth of extremely rapid collapse, so they depend on the idea that each floor offered zero (o) resistance to the collapse. Therefore, all 268 exterior columns had to be destroyed on every floor in addition to the 47 interior columns.

Furthermore, in addition to placing explosives, controlled demolition prep teams also CUT support columns and cross-members. The building comes down not only because of explosives, but because for weeks or months before "the day" the support columns have already been dramatically cut by acetylene torches. So when the explosives detonate, the building has already been severely weakened. The explosives only cut through a small remaining part of the columns, after the prep team has cut notches most of the way through the columns with torches. And auxillary lattices and cross-members have been completely cut through and disconnected in advance by the prep teams before the demolition.

AGAIN: Controlled demolitions do not involve explosives bringing down a building. Controlled demolition involves prep teams dismantling the building over a period of weeks or months with acetylene torches, so that only the barest minimum of the support structure is still intact. The explosives only destroy the last little bit of structure that the prep teams have not already dismantled.

However, conspiracy nuts have another problem: The architects who designed the WTC Twin Towers did not create empty spaces in the walls to conveniently hold bombs. There is no space for the bombs inside the walls.

During an actual controlled demolition, teams spend weeks or months preparing the building. They place HUGE explosive packages on the OUTSIDE of support columns and pillars, where they are VERY, VERY OBVIOUS.

No building in the history of humanity has ever undergone a controlled demolition in which the explosives were concealed inside the walls. It has never been done. No one knows how to do it, because no one has any experience with it.

But there was no room inside the walls for explosives. The architects designing the Twin Towers did not plan on leaving void spaces for the installation of bombs. Remember that the explosives must be directly against the support columns. If bombs were in some void space, but not against the column, they would have no effect other than being a noisy firecracker.

Furthermore, never in the history of humanity has any building undergone controlled demolition while still being inhabited by office tenants on a day-to-day basis. It has never been done (not even on 9/11 of course). No one knows how to do this.

It would be absolutely impossible to rig the Twin Towers for demolition while 50,000 people were working in the office buildings at the same time, without someone noticing.

Remember: Office workers do not work a 9-to-5 schedule. Law offices and financial offices in particular may have professionals working all hours of the day and night, 24/7. The World Trade Center was famous as an INTERNATIONAL center for businesses from around the world. Financial offices and import-export businesses might have staff in the office -- unpredictably and without warning -- in the middle of the night talking to Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, or China. Law offices crunching on a deadline for court may have lawyers and paralegals coming and going at all hours. Patent lawyers and researchers might be talking to Japan's patent office at 3:00 AM New York time.

But the nuts assume that the Twin Towers would have to be empty at night. Wrong. Conspirators would have no way of knowing who would be coming and going all night long in the WTC tenant offices. They could not count on a professional office building necessarily being empty, just because it is night. Such nonsense comes from inexperienced students and minimum-wage workers who do not understand an international, world-class office building like the World Trade Center.

But even if conspirators could open up the walls without anyone seeing, even if there were any vacant space in which to plant bombs, this would still be impossible.

After cutting open the walls and putting bombs inside, the conspirators would have to close up the walls again and make it look the same as it did before. This means putting in a new section of drywall, and applying drywall "mud" (joint compound) to smooth over the cracks and create a smooth surface. It takes time for the drywall "mud" to dry. Then it has to be sanded smooth. This creates a gigantic amount of extremely-fine dust -- the same fine, white powder we saw in billowing clouds on 9/11. That dust has to be cleaned up, after it blows everywhere. Then the new surface has to be painted -- and painted to match exactly. It takes time for the new, wet paint to dry. And it won't look the same color until it does dry. If you have seen a patch-job of paint, when you look at it from a certain angle you can see the new paint section looking different from the rest.

This could not be done in time for office workers to return to their offices the next morning. Many staff, especially clerical and secretarial, might be coming to work as early as 7:00 AM if not earlier, even if their executives arrive much later.

Finally, controlled demolition is performed by blowing out the lower floors of a building, so that the building will fall down into its footprint as much as possible.

THE KEY WORD IN CONTROLLED DEMOLITION IS CONTROLLED.

Uncontrolled demolition is not the idea.

So no one destroys a building from the top down, the way the WTC Twin Towers collapsed. No one has any experience at it.

The reason why buildings are never demolished from the top down is precisely what we see in the videos -- debris showers down from the top all over the entire region. Demolition from the top down is out-of-control, chaotic, messy, AND EXTREMELY, EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. The debris from the WTC Twin Towers -- each of which had a base of 1 acre -- COVERED 16 ACRES. No one does controlled demolition that way. So no one has any experience with it. There is no one that conspirators could call on who would know how to do it.
