How the Twin Towers Collapsed

It is pretty cool and surreal, gives the special effects team at WB a run for their money =D (Ignore that). I remember 9/11, I came from home and it was all on Tv, it showed a man running away with his skin hanging off his face ='[.

^^^ hahaha thats kinda a bummer :( its special effects?? that reminds me of a tv show i watched once (yes i watch the boring old war movies n stuff) this guy from pearl harbor, was running around helping hurt people, and this one guy, went to grab his hand and when he tried to help, the skin came right off the injured man. its pretty disturbing

Make that the 88th. It would be only a few hundred feet from the ground if it was that low, they wouldnt be able to go that far down.

That was a sad day :(

I agree. I got in the car, and my mother said 'There's been a terrorist attack in New York'. I thought not much of it until I found out how devastating it was when I saw it on the TV.

Omg, it's even more devastating when you look at the videos again.

We are still living in fear today, over the worry that terrorists will strike again, which came true with the London bombings. But now, I begin my explanation of how the Twin Towers collapsed.

When the plane collided with the tower, It would have damaged a few floors. After the collision, one floor dropped, colliding with the next. This continued until it reached the bottom floor. The tower could manage the weight of the few remaining top floors, until it could stand no more. The tower then collapsed downwards, causing an uproar of smoke.

The reason for the floors dropping was the lack of beams between the floors. More steel gurders should have been placed so the floors could withstand a lot more. The tower would have still collapsed, although, however, it would have given the occupants a larger time to evacuate to safety. Those positioned where the impact happened, and those above, would have had no chance. However, the people underneath could have probably escaped. Obviously, the floors were sturdy with people, because they would not have been manufactured to withstand the impact of a jet aeroplane.

Today, we still remember all those who lost their lives in the 9/11 attack, along with the London Bombings. We also remember those whose lives were lost in terrorism in other countries too.

I don't see why we have soldiers in Iraq. We achieved the main thing, Saddam Heussein. We shouldn't have gone into Iraq in the first place. We should stop the gassing, the shootings, the violence in Iraq, and let them live in a country with peace and without violence.

What also freaks me out, is on one camera angle, a face appears in the smoke.
I was thinking it was photoshopped, but it is on the CNN video.
