How far outside a footprint should gravity throw things?


The squibs in question are the ones in WTC 7, not the Trade Towers.
Pure denial.
You call Gage a liar because the squibs in WTC 7 are inconclusive and then you make asinine statements like this one.
[FONT="]Stacy Loizeaux:[/FONT][FONT="] The term "implosion" was coined by my grandmother back in, I guess, the '60s. It's a more descriptive way to explain what we do than "explosion." [/FONT]
FEMA 5-31
"Loss of strength due to the transfer trusses could explain why the building imploded"
"WTC 7 had a relatively small debris field because the façade came straight down"
NIST L-33
"The debris of WTC 7 was mostly contained within the original footprint of the building."
Building implosion is a fine art. It cannot happen by chance. WTC 7 was a CD
The FACT that it IMPLODED is evidence that it was a CD.No, there is no evidence to suggest that the collapse of WTC 7 was a demolition.
The FACT that it IMPLODED is evidence that it was a CD.
CD is the ONLY known cause of high rise building implosion.
It is a fine art, extremely difficult to accomplish.
To say that the implosion of WTC 7 isn't evidence, is pure denial.
The fires in WTC 7 did not burn long enough to heat a column weigh over 7 tons per floor to over 1000[FONT="]° [/FONT]F.

Correct. It's just stating the obvious. WTC 7 IMPLODED.This is not true, Christopher. The use of the term by FEMA should tell you that implosion doesn't mean "with explosive devices."
WTC 7 was 576 feet tall. Damage to some of the surrounding buildings is not surprising.The fact that it hit other buildings around it and fell to the south proves it didn't implode. That is also evidence it isn't CD.
Normal building fires could not heat columns weighing over 7 tons per floor to over 1000° F on 1 floor, much less 4 contiguous floors.It fell, that not hard for a building constructed like WTC 7 to do in a fire.
Two chiefs and a Capt. thought WTC 7 was in danger of collapse. [one chief disagreed]That's your uninformed statement out of ignorance. The WHOLE FREAKEN FIRE DEPARTMENT KNEW THE BUILDING WAS GOING TO COLLAPSE BY FIRE BEFORE IT FELL.
http://www.structuremag.org/Archives/2007-11/SF-WTC7-Gilsanz-Nov07.pdfStructural engineers have created papers saying how they think the fires collapsed the building.
You believe the unproven official hype on blind faith and demand a "peer reviewed paper from a respected journal" to tell you that normal building fires could not heat columns weighing over 7 tons per floor to over 1000° F on 4 contiguous floors.Again, just who the hell are you and wheres your peer reviewed paper from a respected journal saying anything close to what you're saying??? That the WTC 7 could not have collapsed by fire??? No quote mining please...
Perhaps you missed this:no, wtc 7 did not implode,. you might want to educate yourself on its definition first
definition of collapse said:1.To fall down or inward suddenly; cave in.
2. To break down suddenly in strength or health and thereby cease to function: a monarchy that collapsed.
3. To fold compactly: chairs that collapse for storage.
v.tr.
To cause to fold, break down, or fall down or inward.
n.
1. The act of falling down or inward, as from loss of supports.
2. An abrupt failure of function, strength, or health; a breakdown.
3. An abrupt loss of perceived value or of effect: the collapse of popular respect for the integrity of world leaders.
I joined with a fake engineer name just to get on his nutcase email mailing list.
After realizing that the emails were garbage, I replied to the last one (about 3 weeks ago) and fessed up. I told him to remove the name.
Guess what.
It's still there...![]()


A rose by any other name .........C7
NIST call it a collapse. They do not call it an implosion.
Lets see what the definition of collapse is and if it could apply to WTC7
Yes, it seemingly can.
are you saying implode and collapse are the same thing? if so you may want to rethink this statement of yours:A rose by any other name .........
1.To fall down or inward suddenly; cave in.
v.tr.
To cause to fold, break down, or fall down or inward.
n.
1. The act of falling down or inward, as from loss of supports.
WTC 7 fell inward and landed mostly in its own footprint.
i.e. it fell mostly straight down.
You can use implode or collapse if you like, both are correct.
The building demolition community uses the word implode because the family that developed the fine art of getting a building to collapse into its own footprint coined the term "implosion" to best describe what they did.
