I remember getting a call from the Fire Department Commander telling me that they were not sure they were going to be able to contain the fire [Building 7]. And I said, We’ve had so much terrible loss of life; maybe the smartest thing to do is pull it. And they made that decision to pull – and then we watched the building collapse. Larry Silverstein, over-insured leaseholder of Building 7, PBS 2001
A final timed and premeditated destruction of their command and control centre in World Trade Centre 7 at 5:20 p.m. ending the criminal enterprise. This action also destroyed incriminating evidence housed in SEC files investigating the illegal tax shelters that would indict company clients of KPMG. Hawkes Cafe, 9/11 Pattern of the Times
How could anyone know Building 7 was going to collapse 20 minutes and one hour before it did? Especially when other buildings in the complex suffered way more damage. Keith Thompson, New World Order Facts
Some people will claim the combination of structural damage and fires is what brought it down ... FEMA and NIST withdrew the claim that fires and structural damage were the cause of the collapse. First they said fuel oil tanks caused it. Then they retracted that theory. They then said the North Tower’s debris knocked down the central support pillar. Then they retracted that. They said it was structurally built incorrectly. Then they retracted that. Now they’re saying they don’t know. ibid.
This photo shows the fires at 3 p.m. The fires are not easy to see because they are small ... Why didn’t the sprinkler system extinguish them? Face the Facts
One of the keys to what happened on 9/11 is what caused Building 7 of the WTC to collapse ... Well in industry slang pulling it means controlled explosion. Jim Marrs
A combination of an uncontrolled fire and the structural damage might have been able to bring the building down, some engineers said. But that would not explain steel members in the debris pile that appear to have been partly evaporated in extraordinarily high temperatures. Dr Kevin Barrett, New York Times, cited What’s the Truth?
The collapse of World Trade Centre 7 had a small debris field as the facade was pulled downward, suggesting an internal failure and implosion. FEMA Report
The specifics of the fires in World Trade Centre 7 and how they caused the building to collapse remain unknown at this time. ibid. interim report 2002, 5:31
WTC7 collapsed on September 11 2001 at 5.20 p.m. The performance of WTC7 is of significant interest because it appears the collapse was due primarily to fire, rather than any impact damage from the collapsing towers. Prior to September 11 2001 there was little if any record of fire-induced collapse of large fire-protected steel buildings. ibid. chapter 5
Although the total diesel fuel on the premises contained massive potential energy, the best hypothesis has only a low probability of occurrence. ibid. Observations & Findings 5.7
It’s reminiscent of those pictures we’ve all seen too much on television before where a building was deliberately destroyed by well-placed dynamite to knock it down. Dan Rather, news commentary, cited Core of Corruption: In the Shadows
Building’s going to collapse. ABC News, firefighter cited Core of Corruption: In the Shadows
All I can attest to is that by noon or one o’clock they told us we had to move from that triage site up to Pace University a little further away because Building 7 was going to come down or being brought down ... The Fire Department, and they did use the word, We’re going to have to bring it down. Indira Singh, interview Guns & Butter 27th April 2005, cited New World Order Facts
There was a rumble. The building’s top row of windows popped out. Then all the windows on the 39th floor popped out. Then the 38th floor. Pop pop pop all you heard until the buildings slumped into a rising cloud of grey. New York Daily news reporter
The first explosion I heard while I was on the stairwell landing ... Then we made it back to the eighth floor – I heard some more explosions ... like a boom! Like an explosion. Barry Jennings, survivor, news interview
Well, Me and Mr Hess of the Corporation Council were on the 23rd floor and I told him, We’ve got to get out of here. We started walking down the stairs, we made it to the 8th floor – big explosions. Blew us back onto the eighth floor. And I turned to Hess and I said, This is it. We’re dead. We’re not going to make it out of here. I took a fire extinguisher and I bust the window out, and that’s when this gentlemen here heard my cries for help [hero reluctantly approaches camera]. This gentleman right here. And he kept saying, Stand by, someone’s coming to get you. They couldn’t get to us for an hour, ’cause they couldn’t find us. I thought we’re dead. This is it. Barry Jennings, interview ABC7 news, cited Between the Lines & Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup
Well, I made it to the eighth floor ... All this time, I’m hearing all types of explosions. All this time I’m hearing explosions ... We were stepping over people. You know when you’re stepping over people. Barry Jennings television interview
Another gentleman and I walked down to the eighth floor where there was an explosion and we’ve been trapped on the 8th floor with smoke, thick smoke all round us for about an hour and a half. Michael Hess, interview Channel 9, cited Between the Lines & Loose Change 9/11: An American Coup
We’re moving the command post over this way; that building is coming down. Deputy Chief Nick Visconti, 14-34 Division
They said, Hey, you got to stay behind this line because they’re thinking about taking this building down. They’re not sure if it’s stable or not. Kevin McPadden, former USAF special operations, cited 9/11 Mysteries
Keep your eye on that building – it’ll be coming down soon. CNN, retreating rescue worker carrying cutters over shoulder, cited The 9/11 Chronicles & 9/11 Mysteries & Between the Lies
We are getting information now that one of the other buildings, Building 7 in the World Trade Centre Complex, is on fire and is either collapsed or is collapsing. CNN News, cited Between the Lines & 9/11 New World Rising
There’s another building very close to the World Trade Centre that was hit by debris some time ago and it appears to be on the verge of collapse. CNN News, cited Between the Lines
The whole thing is about to blow up. CNN, rescue worker
The building is about to blow up – move it back. CNN, rescue worker, cited The 9/11 Chronicles & Between the Lies
Now more on the latest building collapse in New York. You might have heard a few moments ago we were talking about the Salomon Brothers Building collapsing, and indeed it has. BBC News Report 10 p.m. London time, 5 p.m. Eastern time, although Building 7 didn’t collapse till 5:20 p.m. picture then cuts to Jane Stanley with Building 7 standing in background. Memo from Reuters later released in which BBC admits incorrect report based on local news report; CNN also prematurely reported collapse of Third Tower
As you can see behind me ... Jane Stanley, BBC report 9th November 2001
We’re not part of a conspiracy. Nobody told us what to say or do on September 11th. We didn’t get told in advance that buildings were going to fall down. We didn’t receive press releases or scripts in advance of events happening. If [sic] we had reported the building had collapsed before it had done so, it would have been an error. No more than that. Richard Porter, head of BBC News 2011
The 9/11 Truth Movement has never disputed that Building 7 was on fire. And sustained some structural damage from falling debris. Yet they have pointed to the fact that steel skyscrapers have been ravaged by fire for days without collapsing. And that even critically weakened buildings do not collapse symmetrically into their own foot-print. In 6.5 seconds in this case, free-fall rate. The BBC failed to mention these facts. Adrian Cannock & David Shayler, 9/11 & the BBC
You hear this clap, sounded like thunder. The building had shock waves going through it. You could see a shock wave go up, the windows blast out. Daryl, worker, cited September 11th revisited v2
The steel apparently melted away but no fire in any of the buildings was believed to be hot enough to melt the steel outright. James Glanz, The New York Times
