the top 10 floors of #1 was heavy enough to drive the bottom 100 floors into the ground?. It only had to break the floors one at a time. It also didn't just crush them verticaly. The building was designed to hold the vertical load. It also dropped debris which bounced and pushed the walls horizontally and they were not designed for that kind of abuse. TP

<<< You want me to believe that the top 10 floors of #1 was heavy enough to drive the bottom 100 floors into the ground?. >>> Now you're playing ignorant. What happened to the intelligent poster of a few days ago? As Tiger mentioned, the top section of floors only had to break one floor at a time. This is a very easy theory to understand. The building could be 1,000 floors tall and the top 10 floors would still cause the collapse under these circumstances. And you know it.
