Yes dude, thats what happened.There is no magical upper block that magically stays in tact and pile drives down the rest of the building Look at your little video again, where is the bottom of your magical "upper block" . If you believe the upper block stays intact, the bottom of that, what was the 99th floor, 360 feet/5 seconds later is around the level of what was the 82nd floor. That is, its already gone through 10 floors if you "intact core structure". And you have spent the laat 50 pages admitting it has, to try prove it couldnt have. What really happened, just as the NIST report says, floor trusses are first to go, they pull in the entire south wall and some of those centre columns and all the horizontal beams with it. Your precious little hat truss pops like a virgin on prom night, it all comes crashing down through all the crappy lightweight floors below pulling further centre and external coloumns down, adding to all the shit coming down on lower and lower floors
You must have missed the part where I said: "Now you want to claim that the upper block was being destroyed as it descended for that first 360 feet. But that lie leads you to now have to explain how something that was destroyed in 5 seconds went on to crush the rest of the Tower." Go ahead and explain that contradiction. And don't forget that you're talking about the thing you still won't admit is a construction photo of the WTC which shows the actual core structure. How's the denial coming along? Ready to 'fess up?
My theory? Im just going by the sequence of the initial collapse in the NIST report, and that was put out 13 yrs ago Not believing that, saying it makes no sense are two very different things
Yes, which means you claim it stayed together. Do I need to quote the parts where you claimed your little hat truss kept the external and centre columns and the antenna together? You attempt any pile driver scenario, and as soon as you type the words "upper block" you have screwed yourself. Either thar upper part stayed intact or it didnt. If it didnr, well then on to whatever the NIST report says. If it did, well then the bottom part is already travelling through your intact core lower section in less than 3 secs let alone 5
You're not keeping up very well. Actually you are, but it behooves you to play dumb here, and so that's what we're seeing from you now; which is a refreshing change from your out-and-out lies concerning the photos I've produced--the ones you won't touch with a ten foot pole now. Don't you understand how your refusal to address your lies about these photos: showcases your dishonesty? Anyway, you know full well that my point is that the lower core and perimeter structures would offer much more resistance than air. And nothing you've said changes the fact that you've contradicted yourself by implying that the upper block was being destroyed as it descended because then you're left with having to explain how something that was destroyed in 5 seconds nevertheless went on to crush the rest of the Tower--which according to the NIST, was intact. So, to recap, you claimed that "There was no internal intact structure pushing upwards. The external steel columns were holding the load, once they gave way, KABOOM . . ." but when asked to provide the source for this claim, you offered nothing, meaning that, once again, you were making up whatever shit you thought would serve your purpose here. And as I've already said, even the NIST referred to the lower core structure as "intact." So, you still believe that if there were a duplicate of the upper block sitting in the space right beside the actual upper block, and they both started to descend at the same time, the duplicate upper block--which is traveling through nothing but air--would be only 40 feet ahead of the actual block after 5 seconds, even though the actual upper block is having to overcome the resistance of the lower intact structure for that entire drop.
And there you go again, saying your upper block cant go through the lower part of the building for the entire drop
I'm saying that the upper block can't go through the intact core and perimeter structures below it as if they weren't there right from the very beginning of collapse. Now do you understand? Also, I'm curious as to whether or not you really believe that the photo of the WTC construction is actually a photo of something from the 1930s?
No storch, the lowers floors and core structures just gave way the moment they were met by the mighty upper block. No resistance whatsoever. Some of them even seemed to have fallen early, as if they were in preparation for the task at hand.
Tell our readers, who probably number 0 by now, what your "upper block" is There is no upper block, shir crumbles, crashes through the floors etc etc, just as the NIST report says. You are just stalling, so we never get to your really crazy part where you try prove 1.5 kwh in a recycling impact crusher x 90,000 tons of concrete is somehow going to prove their wasnt enough gravutational potential energy for the skyscaper with a big freakin hole in it from the 767 to fall down
The upper block is the section of the Tower above the impact zone. It's the part of the Tower that comes down on the part below it. Why do you ask?
Finally, 69 oages to get you to admit what that upper block is, so floors 98 and above. Which you just said you cant believe go through the lower part of the building for the entire drop.
You're right. I don't believe that the upper block simply dropped through the core and perimeter structures as if they weren't there. Also, I've made clear in past posts that when I said "entire drop", I'm referring to the first 360 feet of drop.
