[wvns] China's Tallest Building Catches Fire, Does Not Collapse
World Financial Center in Shanghai miraculously defies popular physics

Shanghai's World Financial Center, the tallest building in China upon
completion, defied all known physics yesterday afternoon when it
caught fire but did not collapse, a modern day miracle in light of
the commonly accepted premise that since 9/11, all steel buildings
that suffer limited fire damage implode within two hours. Anyone who
has visited Shanghai's Pudong district will note that the World
Financial building eerily resembles the twin towers in New York that
were destroyed on 9/11, which is why the sight of it catching fire
yesterday would have led many to immediately fear the imminent
collapse of the structure.
"According to an eyewitness, the building caught fire around 4:35
p.m., and floors above the 40th floor were shrouded with dark smoke.
The fire was fierce, burning debris fell from the building. Many
people fled the building in panic," reports Epoch Times. "According
to Mr. Deng, a local resident, floors above the 30th floor were
engulfed in thick layers of smoke, while the top of the building was
also smoking."
Officials put the time of the outbreak of the fire at 4pm and said
that was extinguished by about 6pm. The south tower of the WTC burned
for just 56 minutes before collapsing, while the north tower lasted
around an hour and 45 minutes. According to the official transcripts
of the firefighter tapes, fires in both towers were almost out
immediately before the collapses.
The World Financial Center in Shanghai bravely remains standing after
fires gutted its top floors, a modern day miracle of science and a
bizarre contradiction to the officially revised version of physics
that came into effect on September 11, 2001.
The saving grace that could have rescued the Shanghai tower from
imploding may have been the fact that it was not hit by a plane, as
the twin towers were on 9/11. However, the absence of a jet strike
wasn't enough to prevent WTC 7 from crumbling into its own footprint
within 7 seconds later that fateful afternoon. Residents of Shanghai
should rejoice that the building defied the revised version of basic
physics that officially came into effect at 9:56am on September 11,
2001, and remained standing, avoiding a potential death toll of
thousands. The population of Madrid were similarly blessed in
February 2005 when the 32-story Windsor Building (pictured above) was
gutted by intense fires for 28 hours but did not collapse. Hundreds
of buildings worldwide suffered major fires that gutted the entire
facade of their structure before 9/11 and did not collapse, but since
the twin towers behaved differently, rather than consider an
alternative explanation for the collapse of the towers, experts
simply decided to reverse the fundamental precepts of all known
physics to make it easier for everyone to understand.
Since that time, it has been commonly accepted that limited fires in
tall buildings are 99% certain to cause an almost instantaneous
collapse.
