this building was on fire for hours.

why didnt it collapse into itself at free fall speeds?

Concrete can withstand much greater heat than steel beams
>>

The building's structure consisted of concrete - not a steel structure, which loses its strength and becomes prone to yield under high temperatures.

if its concrete then how did the fires spread?

concrete isnt flammable

even if the shit hanging outside the building was flamable that would just burn but the window sills an ceilings and floors and walls wouldnt

even if you had fucking wall to wall rugs

the flames would have to land inside the window catch fire and thats it

eventually the room would lose oxygen

i dont buy it

Well, I'm not a firefighter, so don't take this as an objective truth, but I would assume that the heat from a fire can be transferred to surrounding rooms via conduction. The flat itself looked outdated, so I'm also guessing that there was a higher amount of flammable materials inside the building compared to your average high-rise.

I don't know but what I am sure of is that I'm feeling very sleepy.... *yawn* why don't we all have a nap. this thing will keep until tomorrow

different construction and it wasn't pumped full of thousands of gallons of jet fuel

It didn't get hit by a fucking plane maybe?

The planes that hit the WTC knocked down the support beams.

the plastic outside covering on the building caught fire and spread

Think about the buildings you see in your life. How often do you see the actual, skeletal frame? It's concealed under a million pounds of bullshit - wallpaper, (((sheet rock))), wiring and tubing and gas lines and all sorts of other stuff that totally burns

1. A fully laden 747 didn't smash into it
2. It's a far smaller building
3. No jet fuel

What about the floors underneath where the plane hit? They were completely untouched. They would not have pancaked the way they did.
