World Trade Centers fall 'Perfectly'

If you are insinuating that this was planned by the government than you are clearly mistaken,

The WTC was built by some of the brightest engineers in the world so that if any type of bomb/destruction did occur, the damage would be at a minimum.

According to FEMA's report (Federal Emergency Management agency), the floors detached from the main structure of the building and fell onto each other, initiating a progressive pancake collapse.

Further investigation by NIST (National Institute of Standards and Technology) found that sagging floors pulled inward on the perimeter columns "This led to the inward bowing of the perimeter columns and failure of the south face of WTC 1 and the east face of WTC 2, initiating the collapse of each of the towers."

Many factors played a part into the miraculous way the Towers fell; these include:

-The angle and force of the planes

-The fire burning away parts of the building

-the engineering of the building

Although, both agencies agree that it was inexplicable luck (if you can call it that for all the innocent lives lost) that allowed for such a straight line drop and minimal damage to the surrounding areas (considering the alternative of falling horizontally)
