Skyscraper Engulfed By Fire, Does Not Collapse
by: Paul Joseph Watson
The new understanding of physics since September 11, 2001, that limited
fire damage can cause buildings to implode at almost free fall speed
into their own footprints, was confounded once again as a 40-storey
skyscraper in Chechnya was engulfed with flames for hours yet did not
collapse.
The blaze consumed an
apartment building in Grozny, the Chechen capital yesterday evening
before it was eventually put out in the early hours of Thursday morning.
Fires burned on every single floor of the structure apart from the
ground floor.
“According to the emergencies service, the blaze
has damaged an area of more than 14,000 square meters. It has completely
destroyed the plastic trimming used on the building’s exterior, but the
interior remained untouched,” reports RIA Novosti.
The
building is the tallest structure in the region outside of Moscow,
standing at 145-meters (475-foot). No one was injured or killed in the
blaze but dozens had to be evacuated.
Although officials
expressed concern at one point that the building could collapse, its
core structure was not affected by the huge fire.
Compare the
skyscraper in Grozny to the similar-sized WTC Building 7 on 9/11, which
was not hit by a plane, suffered comparably limited fire damage, and yet
collapsed almost into its own footprint at near free fall speed.
Following 9/11, scientists agreed that instead of accepting the premise
that some form of explosives must have been used to bring down WTC 7,
physics itself must be wrong and that normal fires can burn hot enough
to weaken steel cores, despite the fact that they were barely hot enough
to break the vast majority of windows in Building 7.
The
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) was forced to
invent a “new phenomenon” of “thermal expansion” to explain the collapse
of WTC 7, labeling it “the first known instance of fire causing the
total collapse of a tall building” in history.
The collapse of
Building 7 was so highly anticipated that it was reported before it
happened by several news stations, including BBC and CNN. Firefighters,
police and first responders were all told to get back from the building
because it was about to be brought down.
The Grozny skyscraper
is just the latest example of a building refuse to conform to our new
post-9/11 understanding of physics, following the example of a similar
sized building in Beijing which was also consumed by fire in 2009 but
remained standing.
