I suggest everyone that’s starting to think "hey, this guy is onto something here!" take a closer look at the video. Play it in Quicktime or something that lets you drag frame by frame forward AND reverse. The Antenna DOES NOT start to collapse first. it starts to collapse in perfect tandem with the top of the roof. And the entire top of the tower collapses at or just above the entry point of the airplane - where the fire would be burning hottest.

Goes to show you... no matter how pie-in-the-sky your conspiracy theory is... you'll find an "expert witness" that will support you and your bad data. What do you want to bet this crack-pot has a book and/or tv show "9-11 - what the government doesn’t want you to know!" in the works??

The “moon landing hoax” isn’t bad enough. Someone has to take the worst tragedy our country has ever seen and try to make a buck off of it. Sad. -LB
