Hey ENT, After observing and fighting building fires for over 30 years here's the Rub.

First hand experience here and not cut and paste shit from the net that you revel in.

When steel reaches a certain temperature it weakens and becomes highly unstable, actually very unstable such as yourself.

When fighting a fire in a building with steel supporting beams the first sign of flexing in the steel and we are out of there. You know why that is ENT ?

Because the fuker will fail at any point and kill any firefighting personal below.

When the fire has cooled and the steel has regained its strength we will enter again and overhaul.

A dumb fuk like you with no experience in real time fires would not realize just how quickly steel will become unstable when subject to intense heat exactly as happened in the towers.

Pack of cards dude, it all comes tumbling down.
