fact: steel beams don't need to liquefy to become compromised.
Why do you think they x-ray welds on critical connections in a building or structure? It's because even a hairline crack in it could cause a subsidence and even a collapse in a crucial point. Now add a shit tonne of jet fuel and a giant plane crashing into those welds in hundreds of places. What do you get? Compromised joints. What happens when compromised joints have thousands of tonnes of weight on them? They collapse... the rest is basic momentum....
explosions? air compression from tonnes of building coming down! so strong that it burst windows in floors bellow, so strong it blew people apart in the basement and stair wells...
If you slow down and think about the ACTUAL facts of what happened, shit makes a lot more sense doesn't it?
