We were told by officials that this is due to normal office fires but when you look at the videos of these fires they are fairly scattered and relatively small,” said Richard Gage, Founder of Architects & Engineers for 9/11 Truth in an exclusive interview with Press TV’s U.S. Desk on Wednesday. In order to bring the building straight down uniformly, symmetrically and as fast as a bowling ball falling off the side of it, Gage explained, you have to take out all 80 columns on each of 8 floors giving the amount of time this building was in freefall as documented by official sources. “So that is something that fire does not have the precision to do. In addition, those fires were out about an hour and a half prior to the building’s collapse,” Said Gage, who is also a member of American Institute of Architects. “The building was absolutely an explosive-controlled demolition. It looks exactly like that, like the old hotels in Las Vegas for instance, and no skyscraper has ever collapsed due to fire and every skyscraper that has collapsed has been due to explosive-controlled demolition,” he concluded. Building 7, also known as WTC 7, was a 47-story skyscraper that stood on the block immediately north of the block that contained the rest of the World Trade Center complex. Building 7 was shrouded in secrecy. Then-Mayor Rudolph Giuliani had a bunker on the 23rd floor. Building 7 was not hit by any aircraft, and apparently did not suffer massive damage from the violent destruction of either of the Twin Towers, according to 911research.net. Small fires were observed in a few different parts of the building prior to its collapse. Most of the fires were barely visible, and were not hot enough to cause window breakage, at least on the north side of the tower, of which there are photos shortly before the collapse.
