i just found out about this today from a teacher who believes in conspiracy theories. it has been 7 years and i just found out.

Wiki gets their info from NIST for the height of WTC7 as being 185.928m, and Emporis as 174m. Also your calculation of at least 10m for the height of the penthouse is incorrect. It's height is 3.048m So even taking the lowest figure of 174m-80m-3.048m, you still get 90.952m in 4.5s for a fall rate of 8.98m/s*2. 186m-80m-3.048m = 102.952m in 4.5s for a fall rate of 10.17m/s*2 Never mind structural resistance, an object falling just through the air would take longer to hit the floor.

@pecker Well you are wrong. The timer doesn't initiate at the start of the collapse and it's also you can see by their markings that they don't measure the top part of the WTC 7 (penthouse) I (actually wiki) was wrong about the height of wtc 7 though it is not 184m it's 174m (their own source says this plus a couple of others) discounting the penthouse it's closer to 165m. I'll accept your 80m from measurement but that but that means they measured 85m of fall instead of 100.

The Irving trust building is 99 meters yes...but the measurement they chose was from the top of WTC7 to the 21st floor of Irving Trust. The 21st floor of Irving trust is 80m from the ground...so therefore, the height of WTC7(184m) minus the 80m of Irving Trust from ground to 21st floor gives 104 meters. So technically WTC7 travelled 104m in 4.5s...for a rate of fall of 10.27m/s*2. Acceleration due to gravity being 9.81m/s*2 Elementary mathematics FTW

@Kreatorix This vid is bullshit. The Irving trust building is 100m. Meaning the collapse they measured was 85m because WTC 7 is 186m. You can't directly compare floors that is retarded. Both the John Hancock building, the WFC Shanghai and Tapei 101 have 100/101 floors. Yet the Tapei 101 is 100m taller to the roof than the Hancock and the WFC is 150m taller to the roof.

NIST's WTC 7 report disclaimer No. 3: . . . the NIST director has determined that certain evidence . . is voluntarily provided . . not directly related to the building failure . . and that disclosure of that information would inhibit the voluntary provision of that type of information. In other words: we aren't telling you all of our information. Only what we feel like. We can't check their work because they're not providing us with all of their information. Criminal investigation.

Unfortunately my english is not good enough to understand here the refinements. For me - against wordconspiracy ideology -- this video is the most impressively, that forces me, to force my brain. W h o write me good arguments ? How should an big "implositon-bomb" come under this house ? Extra question : Did someone Geiger(radioactive) measures after 9.11. ? Bye
