towers collapse faster than free-fall in a vacuum. A solid object would fall that height in 9:22 sec. The second tower that collapsed was tower #1 in 8 seconds. The other tower collapsed slower than free-fall by 0.78 seconds. Learning the physics of nine-one-one.

1. your times are off
the first tower took about 15 seconds. the second one slightly longer.

Neither tower fell at or faster than free fall. In fact both fell far slower than free fall.
ooops.

6. data from Columbia U. seismology group
Information Based on Seismic Waves recorded at Palisades New York Seismology Group, Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, Columbia University
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Event origin time (EDT)
(hours:minutes:seconds) Magnitude
(equivalent seismic) Duration
Impact 1 at North Tower 08:46:26±1 0.9 12 seconds
Impact 2 at South Tower 09:02:54±2 0.7 6 seconds
Collapse 1, South Tower 09:59:04±1 2.1 10 seconds
Collapse 2, North Tower 10:28:31±1 2.3 8 seconds
It is going to take a lot of patience to learn the physics of this META-EVENT, the term used by Peter Dale Scott. I would add it certainly has all the marks of being a coup, surpassing even Bush's 1st election.
See, this is why I love troofers. They take one little bit of science and just run crazy with it!

Yup...Directed Energy Weapons brought down the towers.

46. They were designed to resist 707s--four engine jets near as big as 767s`
John Skilling, the engineer, told the Seattle Times:
"Our analysis indicated the biggest problem would be the fact that all the fuel (from the airplane) would dump into the building. There would be a horrendous fire. A lot of people would be killed," he said. "The building structure would still be there."
http://community.seattletimes.nwsource.com/archive/?dat...
Of course, maybe he was lying. It was after the '93 bombing, and maybe he was trying to create
the impression that flying a plane into the building was futile.
Of course...it's all based on analysis...

195. Reality?
why the ID 'realityhack'? Is there an inference you have an inside track on reality? Maybe you do not know the term 'reality' has almost no status in hermaneutics, the science of meaning. This post TOWERS COLLAPSE was only for purposes of introducing the elementary subject of how gravity operates on this planet. If I were to repost I would probably use '911 Project' in the sense of Tarpley's 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA. If you like scifi, You would enjoy James Blish.

196. And your OP was PROVEN wrong
The towers did NOT collapse faster than free fall. Period.
They didn't even collapse AT free fall speed.
Why babble about my user name?
Why not answer the direct question in the post you are responding to?
I enjoy reading through the 9/11 threads over at DU because even at DU, there are those who are just too ****ing crazy to allow freedom to wander around...
