You would certainly agree, that the twintowers actually collapsed.

So: 'what was up had to come down' (in one way or the other), because 
steel-beams are not supposed to stay floating in the sky.

We could discuss the size of the pieces, but not the total mass and the 
hight, from where these pieces had to come down.

Each tower was made from roughly 600,000 to of material.

So, it we had, say, ten-thousand pieces, each piece would have a mass of 
60 tonns.

That's a little large, so lets assume 30,000 pieces of debris (per tower).

That would give us an average of 20 to per piece.

But by looking at the pile of the rubble, there haven't been 30,000 
pieces of an average of 20 to in each of the piles.

I would say, there were less the ten-thousand pieces of such a mass, 
possibly far less (in both piles combined!).

But, if you prefer that, we could also assume 40,000 pieces with an 
average mass of 15 to or 60,000 pieces weighing on average 10 tonns each.

What would you prefer?

You are absolute right and nobody would drop such piece intentionally 
from such a height.

But we're not talking about intentions, but about the collase of a 
skyscraper. This did happen and therefore we need to assume, that the 
pieces fell down some way.

Sure, but the pieces 'falling' sideways had enough kinetic energy to 
pierce through the steel structures of adjacent buildings.

So: why didn't they cut through the floor level of the WTC-Plaza???

There the kinetic energy would be even higher.

Well, I was never in New York and all I have are such pictures.

Therefore, I can only used pictures of independent sources.

This is certainly not evidence in a classical sense. But you could 
easily obtain similar pictures from other source and could choose, whom 
you trust more.
