The problem is when one floor fell, it fell onto the floor below it, which in turn fell on the floor below that, and so forth. When a ten ton floor drops onto the floor below it, it's only common sense that the floor below it is going to give way.

It just pancaked.



Maybe. But not when the "support" has been impacted by an airplane and the resulting fire. If you were to carefully remove 25% of the support for each floor, you might have a chance. But if you tear out 25% of the floor across four or five floors by ramming it with an airplane, well, all bets are off.
then what of WTC7? no planes hit that one and it fell without any resistance. fire did that?
and what of the witnesses that were inside WTC7 and reported explosions at the base level of the building? they lying about it?
okay.... so everyone knows that random explosions just happen from time to time inside buildings spontaneously.... but none that level the building without that specific intention.
