    Their internal support structure was severely damaged when the planes hit them and exploded. What wasn't destroyed immediately was damaged by the heat of burning jet fuel. When the support structure could no longer bear the weight the floors above the impact area they fell, and the compressive force of the weight compromised the structures below them. Think about what happens if you stand on top of some cardboard folded up and stuck on edge. It will hold you up for a while, but once the weight gets to be too much it collapses.

    The twin towers were a monument to human ingenuity. They are a testament what the mind of man can do to satisfy the hearts wish to reach the stars.
    .
    It is this rise to modernity that threatens those who wish to remain in the sixth century.

    There is a new theory that the planes alone could not have caused that amount of distruction, that there were charges planted in the buildings ahead of time. My friend saw a documentary on this, and I am waiting to hear back the title so I can download it and watch it. Until then, this is all I know. Of course, it is just a theory and could be false.

    Planes + buildings + high impact + burning jet fuel = sad buildings.
