Part 5/9:
Questions continue to linger about the fate of the missing material filtered through various conversations. Eyewitness accounts highlight how survivors, trapped in what should have been a collapsed building, reported seeing sunlight and described a dreamlike state of disbelief, claiming there was “nothing above” them. They pondered why entire sections of buildings seemed to have vanished without a trace.
Furthermore, Dr. Wood points to the many structural elements that were never recovered, such as file cabinets, floor trusses, and significant amounts of steel decking. The suggestion is that large portions were not just damaged but vaporized during the destruction, leading to an untenable situation: two massive steel and concrete structures that seemed to disintegrate into nothing.
