He says that they couldn't have collapsed that way by fire alone. Well first of all, it wasn't fire alone. Second of all, I'd trust engineers who know the ins and outs of what happens to steel at certain temperatures, over a demolition expert.

A demolition expert knows how to look at a stripped out building, and know where to place all the necessary charges to cause the building to implode as neatly as possible. A demolition expert does NOT know how what happens to a building if a passenger airliner crashes into it, causing jet fuel to explode on top of that, and having a long fire burn, with said fire having its origin at the point in the building weakened by a plane. One demolition expert vs. many engineers world-wide commenting on the matter. I'll side with the latter.

Game, set and match.
