You have to consider the area and how the pressure is being distributed around such.
Sure...the wind may have more total pressure, but that pressure is spread around a much larger area. So the pressure per square meter or what not becomes less. When you take a significant amount of force (the plane), even if it's less then the building gets total from wind), and put it in a relatively small point of the building, the amount of pressure per square meter is much greater. Think of it like a heavy person lying down on a bed of needles versus a slightly lighter person lying down on a single needle.
I know, but according to those in the building, in barely even shook when the plane hit, it swayed much more on windy days.According to the structural engineers Ive read articles from and those that work for my architectural clients those towers were about as strong as can be built, a plane hitting em was nothing.Even some of the firemen that lived thru that mess have mentioned the sounds of what possibly could have been explosives going off.They way all 7 buildings collapsed just doesnt add up.Buidling 7 for example although steel wasnt a tube type structure like the towers, I can see it just collapsing into a pile, the towers on the otherhand not likely, too many coincidences to believe in my eyes.The airplane strikes were different, one was centered, one wasnt.You couldnt ask for a better demolition job on the whole site if you paid for it, 7 huge multistory buidlings dropped into a nice neat pile?Not only that but staggered time wise.What many seem to discount about the fuel as well is much of it wasnt going to stay at the point of impact, most of it would have drained down to the basement thru the elevator shafts and whatnot, ending in the basment, which turned out to indeed be the case,alot of it poured out of the elevator shafts into the lobby which is why the rubble smoldered and burned for weeks.
I just checked out a video from the library friday that has inside the towers footage taken by firemen and others minutes after the incident occurred, it isnt pretty.Elevators dropped 80 floors crashing into the lobby, the sounds of people jumping and landing on the bottom floor roof and area surrounding the base of the towers.Fuel pouring out of the elevator shafts, debris everywhere, mass confusion.Horrible tragedy to say the least.
Anyway, supposing it is the way the "official story" says it is, still NOBODY has a credible explanation as to why the investigation was never properly done, that breaks a whole bunch of laws at ALL levels, that combined with the whole general nature of the event raises a red flag in my eyes.
