Here you can see the tower start its ascent, breaking off from the stable lower half of the building. How does the rest follow suit, collapsing under what is clearly a favourable weight distribution to the remainder of the building. Yet the rest collapses in uniformity. Notice the flashes of light just prior to collapse, on both faces of the building.

In an instant, the rotation stopped, and that which was rotating began to fall, as if only under the influence of gravity! The fulcrum was no longer there!
I blurted out, "My god, they wired the building."
I haven't been at peace with myself, or the world, since then. I had no idea who the "they" in my utterance was, and to this day still do not. Since learning more about the events leading up, and subsequent to the tragedy, I have become firmly convinced that the conspiracy being sold to the world by the Government, the media, and debunkers is the greatest Red Herring of our time, if not in history. Those of us who are seeking the "Truth about 9/11" face a formidable but not insurmountable challenge: to convince those who don’t want to know to join us in applying a continuing and increasing pressure on the media to force those who don’t want us to know into the light of day.

| quote: | In that instant, the force opposing that of gravity, at the center of rotation appears to have gone to zero. This in itself should refute the 'pancake collapse' hypothesis. To be credible, the basic assumption of this hypothesis is the simultaneous application and even distribution of an equal force spread over each successive floor. The available visual evidence contradicts this hypothesis:- neither the sum of the vertical forces nor the sum of the torques is equal to zero, since there is clear evidence of both angular and translational acceleration, and
- at the instant of an unexplained event (apparent explosion) the angular acceleration appears to go to zero, and the translational approaches that of 'free fall.'
The only physical explanation for this observable phenomena is the instantaneous removal of the force(s) opposing the motion of the falling, rotating upper structure, which is (are), the force(s) applied by the remaining structure beneath it, whether damaged, or undamaged.
That can only be accomplished by putting the damaged supporting structure into a "free fall" condition, i.e., controlled demolition. It should be obvious to everyone that the impact times and velocities of the falling upper block on the supporting floors would be a function of the horizontal distance from the instantaneous center of rotation which was at or near the western face of the tower.
