This does not account for the freefall of the two towers.
Yes, it does.

It's simply a matter of physics. Really, it is.

Once the upper floors collapsed - due to WEAKENED steel - there is NO WAY the lower floors could support the collapsing weight. We're not just talking about weight. We're talking about momentum and force.

This is the great thing about conspiracy theories: You simply cannot prove them wrong.
