They're designed to be sustainable, not survive bombs. You don't WANT to make the design too rigid or else the wind will buckle it.

Yes, the wind. It's a bit of a problem with tall skyscrapers, don't you know?

You're talking about a 66m building compared to two ~410m buildings. Even WTC7 was still more than three times as tall as the Prudential Building in Warsaw!

I know "truthers" don't really understand engineering, like, at all, but do try.
