Early Fracture Simulation Case Study of Progressive Collapse of WTC-7

Occasionally film makers and media companies are facing the problem of being asked to reproduce certain real world events in CG. This video shows my attempts to do so for the collapse of World Trade Center 7 using the new fracture tools of Blender. I ultimately couldn’t get to a point of satisfaction with the results for that purpose, but since I got some really spectacular collapses I decided to post them anyway for your entertainment. I want to emphasize that this video is not intended to prove or disprove 9/11 conspiracy theories. I’m deleting comments that include hate speech, so you better think twice before starting an argument about the reasons of 9/11 here. Instead, I recommend to read a neutral source like: to get some pros and cons instead of watching videos on YouTube like mine to come to a realistic conclusion about what has happened that day.
