And that's what happens. The stupidity of those who were and are still selling this yarn is only exceeded by how stupid these sick morons think WE are. Of course, many normies ARE, but many more of us are quite the opposite.
Planes are primarily made of aluminum, which would fold up like a tin can - if it wasn't shredded by the fuel explosion, which it would be. The impact would likely dent a few adjacent steel columns and the explosion would blow partitions, office furniture and other loose objects through metal stud and drywall walls, but as numerous structural engineers have stated the fuel fire would not have melted steel and the impact damage would not have triggered a collapse. Even if upper floors collapsed due to column damage at the point of impact, they would have tilted toward the point if column failure and most definitely NOT result in the perfect packing of the entire structure. The odds of the same exact thing happening to the second tower, due to a different impact location (and presumably velocity and trajectory angle) have got to be extremely high - if not incalcuable.
The simulations of the kinetic process of the airplane colliding with the building resembles cheese going through a slicer. The airplane penetrates most of the building---but the steel columns slice it lengthwise.
The fuel in the fire was essentially kerosene, which has an adiabatic flame temperature of 2,093 C. Iron (steel) has a melting point of 1,538 C. Aluminum has a melting point of 660 C. So, it is credible that the steel may have melted. It is certain that the aluminum would have melted. The flame temperature of burning aluminum vapor (which would evaporate from hot molten aluminum) is 3,732 C (in pure oxygen, lower when in air). If aluminum had been burning, not only would the temperature have been high enough to produce molten steel, it would also produce quantities of aluminum oxide. (In other words, what unwitting people will mistake for "thermite" in the wreckage.)
I suggest the structural engineers are not combustion engineers, or strength of materials engineers. Steel loses a great deal of strength as the temperature gets into the thousands of degrees. As I have elaborated elsewhere in this thread, when the load-bearing strength of the floor column array reduces to the load limit, it only takes one column failure to initiate a chain reaction of column failures, to occur within a few tens of milliseconds. The upper 12 stories would have had no time to tilt as they fell. The collapse proceeded at a steady acceleration of 0.7 g, which meant that the crushed structure was opposing the oncoming load to the extent of 0.3 g.
What happened on 9/11 had nothing to do with "odds." It was possible and it happened. Post-facto expectations to the contrary are only signs of ignorance.
What evidence? No detonations. Presence of aluminum oxide and melted steel accounted for by combustion environment. Diagonal column fractures from shear failure. You've already argued that it should have been impossible for the airplane to do what it did, so how was it possible for the mysterious saboteurs to know how far up to place their demolitions and no farther? But if the airplane was impossible...how was it possible?
You really need to address the question and stop carping about the answers that don't conform to your narrative.
Question, if it were only the planes that hit, what kind of damage would have happened? Without the controlled demolition part.
I thought I had read that buildings were engineered to withstand a planet crash.
They were. A building in Philly got hit by plane in 1973. It burned for a little while, then was put out.
And that's what happens. The stupidity of those who were and are still selling this yarn is only exceeded by how stupid these sick morons think WE are. Of course, many normies ARE, but many more of us are quite the opposite.

Not quite -- unless it's a very small planet. Kek

Just my 17 cents, fren . . .

No ignorance here, but nice try.
Controlled demolition evidence is clear.
