Methodical Deception - 911 Very Interesting Inside The Airline Persective

[Drew Phipps]

To my (untrained) eye it appeared to be a collapse. However, watching it live, I somehow knew the South Tower building was going to "collapse" a few seconds in advance. I cannot say if I saw the upper section start to lean sideways, or buckle, or if there was some sort of vibration that I subconsciously perceived, but I said, out loud, "That building's coming down!" and then it did. When the dust cleared I was quite surprised at how little remained; I was expecting a far greater portion of the lower building to remain intact.

I did not see any similar sign of the North Tower start to collapse.

I saw material being ejected to the sides as well, and I have been told (both) that the sideways ejection of steel beams at speed is anomalous, and that it is normal. This is a poor analogy at best, however, when I am breaking a handful of uncooked spaghetti sticks (for my kid's favorite meal) there is an awful lot of small bits of spaghetti in all directions on the kitchen counter.

So, in truth, I cannot say my personal observations were "consistent with collapse" nor "inconsistent." In view of completeness, however, let me say that what I saw of Building 7 going down is consistent with controlled demolition.
