Their NYFD chief at the time thinks it was an inside job. In an interview he talks about how the elevator shafts were painted with c4, the “terrorist insurance” weeks before, the bush family ties to oil and Israel. Scary shit

Doesn’t need to melt them, just needs to soften them so they bend. Then gravity does the rest

Jet fuel can burn up to 1500F, steel loses 50% of its strength at 1100F
