Very Uniform collapse? Really, I see a progressive collapse. Same as most people who actually open their eyes and minds to facts.
Yes the uniform collapse. You say that you see a progressive collapse because of the penthouse falling into the roof of THE MAIN STRUCTURE. But once the MAIN PART OF THE BUILDING commenced collapsing, in which 2.25 secs. of freefall is known to have occurred..the 47 stories came straight down.
You continue to confuse the facade that you can see with the collapse of the internal structure which cannot be seen.
Try to understand that the "facade" is connected to the other parts of the building, and that while all of this destruction and collapsing of beams and shearing of connections was taking place..we are to assume that it is reasonable to NOT see distortions of the outside of the building??

That is akin to saying a human beings skull can collapse inside their head, and no one will be able to know something is going on!!
In order to weaken all the those connections, a fire would have to heat the bolts or the flanges to the point where the bolts fell apart or tore through the steel. But here is another thing that gives me problems -- all the connections between the outer and central columns would have to be heated at the same rate in order to collapse at the same time -- and at the same rate as the joints with the outer columns on all sides -- one side of the building would fall, damaging the floor below and making obvious distortions in of the facade of the building, or make the building off balance and fall to one side. This is the main point I try to make you understand, and which you have no valid counter point.
You dismiss the fires that can sort of be seen from the south because you don't see them in most of the videos. Why? Because everything to the south was evacuated because they were unsure when the building was going to collapse.
I am not dismissing the fires, just the veracity of them to the point it caused all this "thermal expansion" secretly inside without a hint. That is just asinine to presume, considering it never ever happened before, causing the uniformity witnessed in the collapse.
The FDNY knew it was going to. They reported it hours prior. I think firemen on the scene can tell when a building is lost and going to come down.
Really now? Then how come they rushed into the towers? Wasn't it "apparent" they would collapse, given that a damned plane crashed into those two?
And , if they knew that 7 was going to collapse, they should have had some clue as to why...Then why did it take NIST so many years to figure it out??
How was it possible to have certain knowledge about the WTC 7 buildings demise before it collapsed, but be completely clueless about how it happened after the building collapsed? How do you know an unprecedented event is going to happen prior to its happening but not have any clue as to why it happened after? As Shyam Sunder stated in 2006, '“But truthfully, I don’t really know. We’ve had trouble getting a handle on building No. 7.”
