114. I presume you mean the *lie* that WTC collapsed in free fall.
Edited on Fri Sep-08-06 06:12 PM by longship
I have proof that they did not:

Look at a picture of one of the towers collapsing.

E.G., This one

Notice how the debris from the collapse looks like a waterfall, with it cascading down around the sides of the floors of the building which are still standing.

Now here's the crux of the matter...

The debris must be falling at close to freefall--actually freefall minus air resistance. Yet anybody can see absolutely clearly that the debris is falling faster than the building's floors are collapsing. Otherwise, the debris and the collapsing floors would be all at the same level. Clearly, this is not true. Therefore, the building must be falling at a velocity slower than free fall. At this point it looks like there are many, many "stories" between the lowest piece of debris and the collapse point.

Quod erat demonstrandum.

The 9/11 conspiracy crowd makes shit up.

edited for clarity.
