That is true for the first building, it was possible for it to go down naturally, but the second by no means had the same damage and came toppling down. Perhaps your right, I just suspect the planes were just visual.

How would you feel if someone bombed the World Trade Center? Pretty bad, but not nearly as bad as you do with this event.

Time will tell.

Hi,

If you want to see some photos of the building collapse, check:

http://www.fxracer.com/trade/
http://www.btinternet.com/~david_amor/wtc/

Basically, the slice cut by the plane in the building with the heat of the explosion/subsequent fire caused the top section of the tower to collapse. A sufficient number of stories fell such that the momentum was sufficient to take the remainder of the structure down.

I don't think that bombs were required to bring down the structure, but it is too soon to tell.

I didn't see as good of photos for the second collapse. Too much dust. As I do not believe the list will tolerate a jpeg, even a 17.5 KB one, please reply privately if you want a copy of the one photo that shows this happening.
