Oddbean new post about login | logout Did you know there was a THIRD tower? On 9/11 Building 7 Came Down for No Reason 8 hours after the first two. Larry Silverstein collected $4.5 Billion.
I only learned this about 5 years ago and most people still don't know
My friends says it came down due to the tremors from the other 2 buildings… so checkmate
nuh uh. chatgpt said it was office fires that were allowed to burn unchecked that weakened the steel beams
And here I thought building 7 came down after uncontrolled fires and damage caused by the first building.
BBC reported it collapsed before it actually collapsed. https://video.nostr.build/c57f88fd6559aa3b05933298f320fc2667dad6a26d7dfffd83860cf859cc1c28.mp4
I wonder if the bbc or cnn or other media outlet has ever made such an embarrassing blunder before or since. Or if this is the worst.
Yeap. My father-in-law was CEO of Mason Construction on that day. The first words out of his mouth was "That was a demolition". Several month later, I became aware of building 7 and that was a big red flag for me. Of course, don't forget the Patriot Act still being used.
