 Architect Les Young, on the destruction of the WTC skyscrapers: “There’s definitely much more going on than just fire.” |
One of the experts speaking out in the new DVD, 9/11: Explosive Evidence, is Les Young, a high-rise architect with 20 years of experience working in California and New York. His total testimony is previewed in a 14-minute video on our website. He has been involved in many large, difficult projects including high-rises ranging from 14 to 40 stories in height.
Prior to becoming an architect, Young was a professional fire fighter for four years. He said, “Never in my training were we ever taught that these types of buildings could just collapse in on themselves…not a Type 1 or Type 2 high-rise building…”
Young also stated that “The impact of the floors pancaking upon themselves would create gushes of air out the side, but not the kind of explosive force that we saw that would throw I-beams across the street.” Young also pointed out that it appeared that the jet fuel burned up in a very short time. That left only office furniture and carpet. “A lot of the things in those buildings have to be fire resistant by nature,” he said. “It’s required by code.”
9/11: Explosive Evidence – Experts Speak Out debuts the weekend of September 11 as part of a four-phase approach being taken by AE911Truth in support of the 10th anniversary of the attack. We need supporters across the country to organize screenings in their respective cities. To find out how you can help, visit our Volunteer page.
