I call click bait!! Minoru Yamasaki was the architect of the Twin Towers. He died in 1986. You haven’t explained how he could’ve possibly designed the World Financial tower, completed in 2008!! The later building was designed by the firm Kohn Pedersen Fox. Further, the building in the picture isn’t that building. It’s the Shanghai Tower. Get your facts straight.

@keithadams1538 and so they should my friend. As a crew foreman I'm regularly in contact with Site Supers and Project Managers and very seldomnly see engineers whether its for GCs or a trade employer's in-house engineers, and thats generally hierarchy setup but that being said, in my experience, most engineers unless called to site, "sweat" the job from the office. I'm not saying their workload is minimal in any way, I'm sure they spend a ton of hours and work hard on a project. There's a classic construction meme out there regarding engineers "I don't know anything about building but my book says you're doing it wrong". I would argue engineers sweat far less than you as a Project Manager or Site Superintendent ensuring compliance, or than any of the construction trades actually realizing their portion of the vision. If I am wrong, you have my apologies, this is just my opinion. Construction is generally a tough job accross the board.

2000 Chinese underpaid workers using materials that were allocated for the construction of the tower to be strong and secure by “foreign engineers, typically United States or Britain and possibly French or Italian”. However in most cases the corruption stems from CCP members who divert the funds to their prospective purposes, aka concrete, steel, quality control institutions that check the integrity of the reinforced concrete that is supposed to be used and all sorts of other aspects involved in the construction of a high rise building. Only problem is that the corrupt CCCP member buys lesser quality materials and lesser quality rebar “if any at all” and then the (under the table) laborers get paid less and less and all that skimmed $$ goes into the pockets of those corrupt CCP bureaucrats. I would not feel safe even a half mile away from any city in China with skyscrapers. They literally just fall to pieces. They are absolute garbage, just like almost everything else made in China.

40:37 No structure is safe when exotic energy technology is projected against it, such as what occurred during the 9/11 event. The designer of the Twin Towers constructed them to withstand multiple impacts from the mainstream airliner at the time, which was a four-engined aircraft. The weaponized aircraft used on 9/11 were two-engined. But proper research has shown that aircraft did not cause the destruction of the WTC. Evidence suggests it was something in the context of The Hutchison Effect, projected field-interference that deteriorated the material structure of the buildings on a 'particulate' level.

Has the Twin Tower architect ever explained how BOTH towers sequentially, systematically, and SYMMETRICALLY deconstructed themselves from top to bottom, even though the top of one tower tipped off to the side at the start of collapse? The top section was tipped off to the side, and the tower beneath it still deconstructed itself SYMMETRICALLY.

Can History defy Physics? How do you make a structure 300 or more meters tall support its own weight? The Eiffel Tower is 10,000 tons of wrought iron. The distribution of that iron is obvious since it is only a structure not a building that has to keep out the elements. The distribution is exponential. Has Physics been History since 9/11/01? The 5th level of the North Tower had to support the weight of 105 levels. No ifs, ands or buts. Level 105 only had to support the weight of 5 more levels. So did level 5 and level 105 contain the same amount of steel? Where is the data on the distribution of steel down the Twin Towers, including the 6 basement levels? When and where have any "experts" discussed and demanded that data in Two Decades? If it happened it should be history. If it never happened it would still be history, just a very different kind. Physics does not give a damn about history however. The Laws of Physics cannot be broken.

@@davepowell7168 ROLF This is one of the ridiculous issues. The core was 85 by 135 ft with 47 columns. There were horizontal beams in the core bracing the columns. I have NEVER seen a layout of those beams. I do not know if they varied in thickness down the buildings. Years ago I communicated with Lon Waters PhD in applied mathematics. He told me that he could not find any data on the horizontal beams. In May of 2008 Richard Gage of AE911Truth gave one of his dog and pony shows at Chicago Circle Campus. I drove into town to talk to him. I got in line after the show and asked him about the distribution of steel down the towers. He looked at me like I had grown a 2nd head. He finally said that the NIST was not giving out accurate blueprints. There are 100+ skyscrapers around the world over 300 meters. Gravity works the same way everywhere. At least that is what I have heard. There are people who know how to figure this stuff out. This silence varies from hilarious to scary. I downloaded the entire NCSTAR1 report by the NIST in 2007. They do not even specify the total amount of concrete in the towers. How weird is that?
