Quick note - the problem with Youtube videos not embedding on the forum appears to have been fixed, thanks to ZiprHead. If you do still see problems let me know.
The above is why I am the Big "incredibly smart" Dog here by an incredibly wide margin.
Removing the three floors would a be much WORSE scenario than an airplane crash into the buildings, initiating fires, and causing the weakening of the steel.

The challenge is just bs. If the "collapses" could have happened without some sort of assisting demolition activity a computer model would have been written to replicate the event and prove it was possible. The same type of program that verifies a building WILL NOT do a 9/11 "collapse" because pristine lower floors can't be made to fail by the weight floors from above.
Aren't you the same person that once asserted that They could've planned the collapse of the building exactly so it would hit 7 and give Them an excuse via computer modeling?
Also, "pristine" lower floors have an upper limit. Someone worked out the impact of the upper floors on the lower section to be several times the weight of the entire intact building. The lower floors were simply not designed to take anything close to such weight, in static or dynamic form.
Not all that difficult. Use software to recreate the building then program in support failures to the upper section/about 1/3 of the building until the lower 2/3 of the building is demolished in less than 30 seconds.
What "software"? You tend to get awfully vague when asked for specifics, or, heaven forfend, actual math. In fact, when I asked you to elaborate on the "computer modelled collapse" claim earlier, you abruptly left the thread in question.
That might have something to do with their tendency to use the simplest model of the incident that they can comprehend, then ignoring any contrary evidence. Which is why some guy on Youtube claims to know more than structural engineers.
Yes, but the margin is not in the direction you think.

No, he merely said that they were not the same, and despite the differences, your scenario would still lead to a collapse. Stop lying.
Do you have any idea of the amount of kinetic energy those floors would gain falling 30 feet? Even if they land end on end, the lower portion can't take it. In fact, it would likely hit with more force than the actual incident.
Come to think, I've never seen you even acknowledge the claim that the floors were destroyed individually. You understanding of the matter seems barely more complex than Richard Gage's famous box demonstration; large blocks striking other large blocks.
What you fail to understand is that the idea of a "block", in this case, is an abstraction used to refer to an assemblage of thousands of pieces of metal and structural components and the odd body or two.
