was at sea level, in Earth’s atmosphere, you might be able to imagine how much air resistance that represents. (Think about putting your arm out the window of a car moving half that fast!) Most free-falling objects would reach their terminal velocity long before they reached 200 mph. For example, the commonly-accepted terminal velocity of a free-falling human is around 120 mph. The terminal velocity of a free-falling cat is around 60 mph.

Therefore, air resistance alone will make it take longer than 10 seconds for gravity to pull an object to the ground from the towers’ former height.

FREE FALL SPEED! - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:36:50
     I think we should find out if YOU fall at free fall speed - Uncle Fester KC - 6/16 12:43:05
          Check out this video of WTC 2 collapsing - Alferd Packer MU - 6/16 13:37:49
               the official government number is 10 seconds - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:45:48
               and zero evidence of explosions at the base(nm) - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 13:43:28
     Hypothesis: Could a building collapse at free fall speed... - North co-co champs MU - 6/16 12:42:24
          lol - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:51:22
               does 2+2=4? - ashtray USA - 6/16 12:53:09
                    yes. and that proves your point? - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:54:08
                         does Velocity = Gravity x Time? - ashtray USA - 6/16 12:54:53
                              I guess at a very simple level - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:56:37
                                   and Distance = 1/2 x Gravity x Time(squared)? - ashtray USA - 6/16 12:59:19
                                        I'll save you some time and agree with your - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 13:02:01
                                             stay with me here... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:03:50
                                                  again I'll agree with your equations on a simple level - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 13:05:51
                                                       energy... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:06:31
                                                            ok thanks - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 13:08:43
                                                            so.... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:07:59
                                                                 It turns out - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:10:30
                                                                      Air resistance - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:13:17
                                                                           Free-falling from WTC heights - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:14:25
                                                                                So our equation tells us.... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:15:29
                                                                                     Since the WTC... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:16:31
                                                                                          Observations from 9/11 - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:19:12
                                                                                               But as we’ve just determined.... - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:20:17
                                                                                                    Air can't do that - ashtray USA - 6/16 13:22:15
                                   LOL yes there are- all of which prove what we've been - JG MU - 6/16 12:58:36
                                        maybe if you gave an example of one it would help - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:59:55
                                             Sure no problem - JG MU - 6/16 13:07:07
          what about WTC 7? - ashtray USA - 6/16 12:48:32
               It was struck by a flaming computer hurled millions of miles - Uncle Fester KC - 6/16 12:54:17
          Those werent 747's genius - Uncle Fester KC - 6/16 12:46:41
          Well at least you admit you have no idea of what - JG MU - 6/16 12:46:09
     so all you have proven is that you take the government on - ashtray USA - 6/16 12:39:33
          not really - Ragnar Danneskjold MU - 6/16 12:43:51
               even you know that all of those - JG MU - 6/16 12:45:23
