And a quick refresher: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:World_Trade_Center_9-11_Att.png
- Both planes were identical models
- WTC1 was struck at 490 mph
- There were 11 undamaged stories above WTC1's impact zone
- WTC2 was struck at 590 mph
- There were 25 undamaged stories above WTC2's impact zone
In short, the second tower was hit significantly harder, significantly lower, and fell after a shorter elapsed time, yet Mr. Brown insists it should've fallen second. Seems to me our friend is avoiding applying his vaunted "common sense."
No, Chris is applying his own brand of "common sense". First building hit should have been the first building to fall. But since the "wrong building" fell first means the pilots got the order wrong. So you figure the guy with the finger on the switch to the detonators could have corrected the sequence.
