I didn't realise it would show up on the forum all fancy like that. Nice.

For people vaguely interested but who won't be listening, he basically says in episode 66 that the tops of the 3 buildings reached the ground in an amount of time that is consistent with freefall.

In the case of the twin towers, there were 110 floors for it to crash through, and it did so at the speed of freefall, as though the only resistance were air.

So he applies mechanical engineering principles to work out if/how the official version of events explains that.

This is disputed by other engineers

I studied Mechanical Engineering and it probably makes sense but I didn't turn up to a lot of lectures. And dropped out in the 2nd year

For what it's worth, I found this article about 9/11 very helpful.
