You should have used an enormous jumbo jet packed full of fuel, they do it easily.


Only if you have princess Diana to plant explosives first though of course.

Its not just to melt it, the fuel helps with extra weight for the impact

How long was the jet fuel burning for then? When did the jet fuel burn off, and desks, carpets, computers etc take over. What temps do they burn at? How was Edna Citron able to stand on the edge of the plane entry hole and look out and wave? She should have been burnt to a crisp? What jet fuel took out WTC7? Questions, questions.
