That was pretty well planned and a little more explosive would have done the trick.

I thought they said the base was too wide to have worked regardless. That's why the next attempt was higher up, and even that surprised them because they didn't expect the heat of the jet fuel to weaken the steel, and then the pancaking of the top floors took it down.

More planning it one way, but reality was something else. That's why a shoulder-launched missile on the extreme of "book" specs would still work. Most manufacturers are conservative about performance specs anyway, so things often exceed the published limits of performance.
