![]() It is common knowledge that shaped charges can cut through steel support columns. The strongest theories contend that these alternate energy sources included explosives and incendiaries. This theory states that additional sources of energy other than fire and gravity were used to bring down WTC 7. The best alternative to NIST’s WTC 7 theory is the controlled demolition theory. Since the NIST theory is in no way scientific, competent conscientious scientists must reject it in favor of a science-based theory. At best, it could be referred to as faith-based pseudo-science. Since NIST’s theory does not explain fundamental facts of the WTC 7 incident and other important facts are so far unreplicated, we can categorically state that NIST’s theory is in no way scientific. The NIST model, then, is faith-based, not science-based. So because the NIST model cannot be verified, it is meant to be taken on faith. NIST has stated that releasing the data “might jeopardize public safety”. It is unavailable because NIST refuses to release it. Unfortunately, NIST’s only empirical data to explain the eight story buckling, the data their computer model is based on, is unavailable to independent researchers. ![]() Other scientists must be able to perform the exact same experiments and obtain the exact same results. ![]() In other words the NIST theory cannot explain key empirical data.Īnother requisite for a scientific theory is that the empirical data the theory is based on must be reproducible by others. So NIST’s theory has absolutely no scientific evidence whatsoever for the fact of free-fall. While it could possibly be argued that the model does show some buckling occurring over eight stories, it most certainly does not show a period of free-fall. The only evidence NIST provides to support their theory is in the form of a computer model. However, if their theory is to believed, the 2.25 seconds of free fall must have resulted from near-simultaneous buckling and breaking of the 58 perimeter columns and most of the 25 core columns over eight stories. The NIST theory does not explain this astounding fact. A free-falling building means there is no supporting structure whatsoever below to slow the building’s fall. This article will show that the NIST theory is a highly convoluted theory that cannot explain important observations.Ī major piece of evidence in the WTC 7 collapse is the fact that WTC 7 underwent free-fall acceleration for a period of at least 2.25 seconds. In science however, a valid theory must be the simplest theory available that best explains all the available empirical data. Many people are under the mistaken impression that NIST’s theory of how WTC 7 fell down is a valid scientific theory. Their theory is documented in the report entitled Final Report of the Collapse of Building 7. NIST, the National Institute of Standards and Technology, was tasked with officially explaining how WTC 7 fell. This building was 7 World Trade Center (WTC 7), a 47-story building about the width and length of a football field.
