Reply #18: To clarify: why the WTC1 and 2 were like trees [View All]

[spooked911]

The twin towers were tall thin structures that supported a lot of weight but were not completely rigid and in fact swayed in the wind. Trees are also tall thin structures that support a lot of weight but are not completely rigid and sway in the wind.

Both have a tubular design-- the WTC has the inner core ring and the outer shell ring. Trees grow as rings around rings.

This is merely an analogy of course, it can only go so far.

But it is worth thinking about how a tree would fall and how a tube-within-a-tube-structured tower would fall when damaged.
