Re: ...as I see the pictures and videos, that would have been followed by the sequential detonation of charges, floor by floor, from the level which sustained damage when the aircraft struck. (I know you don't believe that, either!)
Of course I don't believe that!!! Tell you what... that whole WTC havoc reminds me of that brilliant movie by Stanley Kubrick: The Shining. Somehow, I feel like Wendy in the following scene:
In the film's most frightening moment, a moment of pure terror and also a brilliant moment in cinema, Wendy, who has been forbidden to look at Jack's secret manuscript, looks down from above Jack's typewriter - she sights down on a single sentence. It is a familiar maxim (taught to schoolchildren) repeated many times on the piece of paper:
All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
Then to her horror as she realizes her husband is truly insane, his endlessly-repeating typographical configurations, all permutations and variations of the same sentence, are found on reams and reams of paper. [The pages were hand-typed, not machine typed.] They reveal the self-deception of Jack's bankrupt, chauvinistic mind and spirit in his insipid script. From behind, Jack emerges, startles her and asks: "How do you like it?" Dread-filled, she jumps from fright, turning to see Jack's smiling, demonically insane, shining face. Jack's mental vulnerabilities and failings [as a writer and breadwinner for the family] have been uncovered by his nagging wife, and he reacts with a mixture of disgrace, embarrassment, possession, and projected rage.

Now log on to Google's image search engine and look for pictures of the so-called crashes on the WTC towers AND YOU TOO WILL FEEL LIKE WENDY!!! It's ALWAYS the same picture!! The same angle! Endless permutations and variations of the same view from a north/north-east vantage point! Check it out by yourself.(*) But then, don't tell me that NO picture/footage was shot from the other side(s) --there must have been people/reporters who took pictures from the WTC's south/south-western sides.
