Report of WTC7 collapse before it collapsed
BBC reported that the WTC7 building collapsed a good 23 minutes before it actually collapsed. In this video, you can actually see the building still standing while she's detailing an account that turned out to be fully accurate when it actually happened. I heard something about that CNN did the same thing. What do you think of this?

I think it's another hogwash conspiracy theory by those that tend to wear tin foil hats before their first morning cup of joe.

Don't be so obtuse. This isn't some video of raging conspiracy theorists...this is simply a video of a news report on BBC. I don't see how this particular video is a hogwash conspiracy theory, as you put it.

The video is obvious: reports were given out of it's collapse well before it's collapse...I mean, there's no denying that. I was more asking you guys what you thought it meant...if it points to conspiracy, and if not then why they reported it so.

WTC7 is the number one reason why I think 9/11 conspiracy theorists are worth listening to (but not always believing).

Wow, that was fast. This video is no longer available. Why not just come out and say that the conspiracy theorists are right?

Thanks Katczinsky. That is pretty strange how her feed cut out, then the building fell. Looks like it had to be orchestrated to catch up with the information already presented.

Kat - have you even considered the time zone differences?

This makes no sense, and doesn't really change anything.

What are you talking about? They were going by the correct time...besides, they were reporting it like 23 minutes before it fell...not so many hours.

Besides, you can literally see WTC7 behind her.

There's about a 90% chance that the reporter is actually sitting in front of a green or blue screen. You know? The ones TV stations use all the time - then superimpose some scene of stock footage behind it?

It was obviously a stupid choice by BBC and CNN, further evidencing their poor quality and low intelligence.


But good grief, does it mean there's some conspiracy? If they had video footage of Jesus returning in the background, would you believe that too?
