Propaganda...good stuff too. I used to have the job of figuring how much demo, how many man hours, and what hauling assets were needed for a blow. If the building were completely cleared, no drywall etc...so that charges could be placed directly on structural steel, the job they are talking about would take an ass load of people and demo and take a long, long time to set up. Didn't happen.

When the planes hit the buildings, the energy was propagated to the earth by the four huge steel shafts that were the base of the structures. This energy was propagated faster then the speed of sound in the atmosphere, energy travels faster through the solid steel then through the atmosphere. Hence the people in the basement felt the impact first, before they heard the boom. The structure was doing what it was supposed to do.

It's obvious to me that the people who made this movie were smart, too bad they can't put those smarts to better use.
