The collapse of the WTC towers appeared eerily similar to controlled detonations of old structures without value. The rescuers believed the towers were structurally sound or they wouldn't have entered en masse the way they did. Perhaps over prior months charges were hidden within the towers' structure and, to overly dramatize the attack, were triggered to obliterate them. If this is true, terrorists on the ground did more damage than any of terrorists on board the planes. Grasso, the head of the NYSE, stated that it is in the best interests of investors for the markets to remain closed.
