Whoa -- good point! I recall seeing bits of junk arcing away from the towers in the videos and descending faster than the collapse wave, but I never made the connection -- it shows that they were not moving at "full free-fall" speed, no matter what was claimed about them. > > The difference between true "freefall" and the "pancake mode" is not as > great as one would normally suspect that it would be - in the range of > 20% - and that small percentage *cannot be determined visually* by even > trained humans unless there is something to compare it with.
