you just proved the case for CD at the WTC, because verinage is a type of controlled demolition. they just use non-explosive means to pre-weaken the supports. and the method does not work on steel-frame buildings, only on buildings made of brick or concrete masonry.

I know! It's fucking hilarious the shit they try to peddle as physics! wildbilln864 Nov 2014 #2

The guy is being sarcastic gyroscope Nov 2014 #6
Yup, he's trying to be sacastic William Seger Nov 2014 #7
It's a valid comparison. gyroscope Nov 2014 #8
The comparison is ludicrous William Seger Nov 2014 #9

LOL, what about Gyro's Law? William Seger Nov 2014 #12

Got proof? OBenario Nov 2015 #59
William, do you also believe..... wildbilln864 Nov 2014 #11
I believe Bazant's conclusion William Seger Nov 2014 #13
Haha Bazant is an idiot gyroscope Nov 2014 #15
Bazant is one of the world's foremost experts in structural mechanics William Seger Nov 2014 #17

Bullshit William Seger Nov 2015 #60
thhe crackpot probably wrote that shit himself or... wildbilln864 Nov 2015 #61
then you believe in nonsense and not science! wildbilln864 Nov 2014 #16
Failed demolitions are caused by... William Seger Nov 2014 #18
Bazant has no argument that needs refuting. eomer Nov 2014 #19
Bullshit William Seger Nov 2014 #20
No, as that paper explains repeatedly, calculations of the real life physical process were not done. eomer Nov 2014 #21
I don't think I agree with your assessment. AZCat Nov 2014 #23
You have never understood Bazant's argument William Seger Nov 2014 #24
Or else you have never understood it. eomer Nov 2014 #25
That makes no sense cpwm17 Nov 2014 #26
That was an intentionally extreme hypothetical for only a very narrow purpose. eomer Nov 2014 #29
" But to demonstrate through engineering principles..." William Seger Nov 2014 #37
Bazant didn't "demonstrate" that the ENTIRE top block was falling? William Seger Nov 2014 #27
I showed you what was (or should have been) obvious... eomer Nov 2014 #28
I made no such claim William Seger Nov 2014 #30

collapse was inevitable!? wildbilln864 Nov 2014 #32
Great response. zappaman Nov 2014 #33
Hard to argue with a baffoon gyroscope Nov 2014 #35
That's exactly how the professional building community feels about the "truthers". AZCat Nov 2014 #36
Ha!!! GGJohn Jan 2015 #44
Yes, if even one floor collapsed, total collapse was inevitable William Seger Nov 2014 #34
your every post is nonsense lately! wildbilln864 Nov 2014 #38
Pro tip: When you accuse someone of "nonsense" ... William Seger Nov 2014 #39
Ha!! Good catch. GGJohn Jan 2015 #45
"Yes, if even one floor collapsed, total collapse was inevitable" wildbilln864 Jan 2015 #47
Wow, what a well thought out, educated response. GGJohn Jan 2015 #43
it's just as educated as "collapse was inevitable"! wildbilln864 Jan 2015 #46
Nope, that proves what happens with bad guesses William Seger Jan 2015 #49
more sophistry! wildbilln864 Jan 2015 #50
Wow, I didn't realize this guy was using Anders Bjorkman as a reference. AZCat Nov 2014 #22
This is what i call "Hillbilly Physics." n/t RoccoR5955 Dec 2014 #40
That's a great name for a band! n/t zappaman Jan 2015 #48
and a kick! n/t wildbilln864 Mar 2015 #55
and remember that as the collapses proceeded down the structure wildbilln864 May 2015 #56
Great video! Thanks n/t OBenario Nov 2015 #58
