_THIS_ is what a skyscraper CD (controlled demo) looks like

It's amazing how loud the initial explosions were.

Perhaps Loose Change will claim that the building was really brought down by a terrorist attack, but the government is using the CD excuse to hide something. ;)
 
Using s=0.5 * a * t^2 to calculate the collapse time of the tower:

s=116m

a = 9.81 m/s^2

time works out as 4.9 seconds.

Actual collapse time is around about 6 seconds, but you might want to double check that.

It seems that even CD buildings don't fall "faster than gravity"

Yes.

They seem to miss the fact that there are a series of initial explosions that travel up the tower, you can see the flashes that accompany them. Then there are a second series of explosions that travel upwards nearer the outer walls of the tower, so that the weakened inside falls first, and then the outside, so that the outer walls contain the inner material.

The tower doesn't start collapsing until the second series of explosions though. The accompanying dust clouds (the cts would call them squibs) come out in all directions, rather than just random windows.

In short, it's not the same at all.

And see how much the camera jumps when the first explosives go off:

Out of curiousity, is there in info from the CD company on how long it took them to prep and wire the building and on how much explosives were needed?

Nothing concrete yet, but there's a post here:

Stating that work has started on the demolition, ripping holes in the building to remove large debris from the inside.

That was November 21, 2005, but that wasn't when charges started being laid.
 
I really have to wonder if prisonplanet's misinterpretation is intentional. Seriously, did they frame-by-frame through the video until they found something that they could claim substantiates their delusions, even if it meant ignoring 99% of the other frames? This appears to be going beyond stupidity into the realm of propaganda.
 
Nah, from my very laymen point of view, this looks nothing like the WTC collapses. These CTers will see whatever they want to see. :rolleyes:
 
This is another case of ...

Apparently there were 4 months of planning involved:

1200 charges:

But the best part is that the general contractor was D.H. Griffin of Texas, who, surprise surprise, co-operated with NIST on a seperate demolition to investigate the penetration of radio and cell phone frequencies through rubble to help them find trapped rescue workers in the case of a 9/11 type collapse.

I wonder if prisonplanet ever even considered asking D.H. Griffin if HE thought the Ft Worth building and the WTC buildings fell in a similar way.

Or any CD expert. Or any structural engineer. Or anybody who even remotely would know what they are talking about.
 
Hey, they're both buildings that fell to the ground - what more evidence do you need that they're completely identical? :p

Come on, the Big Bad Wolf is obviously a government plant: the pattern of destruction of the straw house is far more in line with some sort of internal explosive than a high lateral wind force.
