16. Let me explain my question in more detail.

janedoe's Post #10:
The timing would need to be perfect. Also, the entire building would need to be perfectly symmetrical.

So I am wondering how they were able to make WTC7, which was not a perfectly symmetrical building, collapse from the bottom up?

If they could do it successfully for WTC7, then why would it not be possible for WTC1 and WTC2?
