A Commerical Jet is not an air plane. We aren't talking about a prop driven commuter plane.
Tell me when and where any other time a commercial jet slammed into a tower?
As for the whole tower. It's a matter of mechanics...physics. The plane hit 3/4s of the way up. So 1/4 of the entire building was sitting on top of the impact area.
Those I beams begin to buckle from the heat and the weight and ALL that load above the impact site comes down onto the next level..nothing can hold that much of a load and gravity.
I don't see how that can be a mystery to anyone.
