there is no such thing as the speed of gravity.
Gravity is an acceleration, a= 32 ft/sec/sec
Top floor is 1355 ft high
The equation is 1355 = 1/2 a t^2
solving for t, you get 9.2 seconds for time it would take top floor to reach street level if it was a free fall.
Ventura is an idiot, unfortunately proving Garrison Keilor right.

The Body certainly ain’t The Brain.
I think Jesse was in one too many headlocks on the mat...

The speed of gravity. The speed of gravity! And what speed would that be, may I ask??? This guy is on speed, I think.

[Thermalseeker]

Yeah, right Jesse. Controlled demolition from the top down. That’s how all buildings are imploded, right? /sarcasm off

[bmwcyle]

Jessie is thinking, feel the heat?

[penowa]

Proof positive that Ventura is every bit as stupid as he sounds. The only question is what does that say for the citizens of Minnesota? Nothing good IMO.

There is so much hatred of the US by the left, I predict that 10 years from now, school history textbooks will be saying al-Qaeda had nothing to do with 9/11, and that Bush destroyed the WTC.

"How could those buildings fall at the speed of gravity - if you put a stopwatch on them both of those World Trade Center buildings were on the ground in ten seconds - how can that be?" asked Ventura. "Never before in the annals of history has a fire caused a steel structure building to fall to the ground like these two did."

LOL, shaking head. The state that brought us Jesse Ventura, structural engineer, metallurgist and theoretical gravitician may now give us a Senator from Dork.
