9/11: (Updated) Caught on Tape: WTC Building 7 Damaged by Debris from Twin Towers Collapse
ABC News Video and Photographs ^ | September 13, 2001 | Jonathon Moseley

Posted on 09/14/2009 5:27:21 AM PDT by Moseley

Why did World Trade Cebter Building 7 collapse?

This video shows SOME of the damage to World Trade Center Building 7 from falling debris from the collapse of the twin towers. It also shows exacly which building is WTC 7 in photographs, and how close the twin towers were to WTC 7, and how the twin towers towered over WTC 7 and how debris showered down on to WTC 7.

Buldiing 7 of the World Trade Center collapsed after 8 hours because it was heavily damaged, and fire raged for 8 hours.

This video combines photographs taken by New York City firefighters with ABC News vidoe broadcast on 9/11.

These images show SOME of the actual damage to WTC 7 from the collapse of the WTC twin towers, but do not show the fornt of the most damaged face closest to the twin towers. Smoke and other buildings get in the way. Fire fighters describe the damage to WTC 7 as much more sevre on the face ot shown in these photographs.

That’s crazy. It was the explosives that damaged the building, just like the twin towers. /S

Huge controversy?

Not really. Just a bunch of kooks.

IMO People who float 911 conspiracy theories are nothing more than liberal anti American hacks who are providing add and comfort to the real enemy for nothing more than a chance to destroy President Bush. That goes for all these stupid conspiracy theories. Hell AQ is offended you’re giving credit to President Bush AHs

It was amazing to see the footage again. You could see one of the twin towers collapse and it clearly began right at the floors where the fires were raging. The floors then pancaked in succession. The "trufers" who tell us the collapse was caused by demolition charges at the bottom of the building are a bunch of f*cking idiots.

There was one expose on this weekend about the conspiracy buffs which summarized a lot of the facts which debunk their "theories". The last scene showed the idiots who made Loose Change saying they were editing and re-releasing the movie with the focus being on WTC 7 rather than the towers. That's how pathetic the remnants of their "theories" are. In essence they're saying: "Well terrorists did blow up the twin towers but the government brought down this other piddly-ass building so that proves . . . something." Of course footage like this, and the unique design of WTC 7 make even that pathetic line of "reasoning" bogus.

The media also contributes. They take a poll question asking if we believe the government has told us everything about 9-11 and say that the high proportion of negative answers supports the "trufers". Wrong. The government, particularly the 9-11 Commission, never tell us everything about anything. That doesn't mean the government committed 9-11.

When I was a kid the house we were 80% done building was arsoned. It was a very unique tri-level and we were building it ourselves with sub-contractors, my father went with huge 14” wide flange I-beams with heavy lb/ft wall-stock to spand a wide distance for the family room downstairs.

I still remember how twisted and bent those beams were, they looked like pretzels and it was nothing but wood and the shingles that caused it, no drywall on yet so that pine burned really fast.

Most people don’t know how soft steel gets when it is cherry red, perhaps if someone let Rosie bend a huge bar of the stuff with one arm she will figure out why the outer beams failed.

Has anyone ever taken Rosie to a steel mill and given her a tour of the process??

I am not looking to get that stupid POS off the hook, but somehow she has to learn how stupid she actually is.

I was married in 1958 and divorced in 1961. To this day, I know that that jerk didn’t tell me ‘everything’.

The media in this country is marking their own demise.

It doesn’t end, does it? A “Truther” challenged my as to why he saw tape of WINDOWS blowing OUT of the lower floors on both buildings? His claim that those shots were “ABSOLUTE PROOF” of demolition blasts gave me the laugh of the week, albeit of something tragic.
When I explained how those windows were engineered NOT to blow IN from heavy winds, yet were virtually sealed and not able to be opened, as is the norm these days, he quieted down.
Then I insisted that INTERNAL AIR PRESSURE from the collapsing upper stories had blown out those windows, he face fell on the floor.
He later confessed to reviewing all the tapes he’d collected and admitted to being wrong all the way.

If YOU TUBE allowed one to change the posted video, I would simply change the video, and I would not have to post the update here.

In the earlier video, I posted ONLY the ABC News video form 911 that shows damage to WTC Building 7 near the top of the building.

In response to questions and commentary that this damage is not severe enough to collapse the building, I created a video that shows some of the vastly more sevree damage down near the street as taken by NYC Fire Fighters and others.

In the original post, I pointed out how it did not show the severe damage down near street level, but just dramatically proved that debris hit WTC 7.

Realizing that people could not separate this dramatic video of the minor damage near the top of the building from the far more severe and fatal damage that is hidden in the smoke and hidden behind other buildings, I eralized that a better video was needed.

But since I could not update the video on You Tube -- their system does not acoomodate that -- I had to start over again.

Let’s take these photos to Chuck Sheen so he can fact check them. He claims he has all the facts about what really happened that day.

I would think that 100% of Americans would answer that the government has not told us everything. Even I agree that the government has not told us everything.

I want to know everything. But I hope the government is NOT telling us everything. Because there is no way to tell us without also telling Al Qaeda.

It is unfortunate that police (e.g FBI) and prosecutors are so manic about keeping secrets before a trial in court. Prosecutors love to surprise criminal defendants at trial -- "trial by ambush." IMHO, that is immoral, unethical, and a denial of due process. Criminal convictions should be based on the facts, not playing games or parlor tricks.

However, it is absolutely standard operating procedure to WITHHOLD information as much as possible so that prosecutors can surprise criminal defendants in court.

As a result, the government has kept a lot of information secret that really should have been released years ago. This has not helped the public discussion.

And then there is the cover-up of government incompetence -- CYA.

Just chiming in here to say that I used to be a fire investigator, and have personally walked over the remains of buildings where the entire steel structure softened, bent, and collapsed.

(Hey, troofers, how do you think they MAKE those steel beams in the first place? Magic dragons?)
