NIST's 'accurate' MKII simulation, ostensibly correctly accounting for both fires and structural damage from earlier WTC collapses, very obviously predicts a collapse scenario looking nothing close to the recorded for all to see, actual free-fall of the essentially intact upper stories. NO chaotic puckering collapse there at all, just straight down. Fail.You've answered your own question. You cannot accurately predict chaotic events. Once chaos dominates, no simulation is accurate.
The collapse of WTC7, as explained by the NIST, matches reality when you look at it closely. From the damage by the debris to the collapse of the penthouse to the fuel for the fires - it all adds up. There is no need to invent any additional conspiracies to explain the collapse.
Stonewalling all FOI requests for independent access to NIST's simulation code and data, continued on for 20 years, speaks volumes. They obviously have much to keep hidden. The absurd justification given, that releasing their simulation code and data "could endanger public safety", is the exact opposite of any sane reasoning. Or brazen excuse hiding the need for massive fudging/massaging in order to get as close as possible to a predetermined outcome. Goal driven.
Hulsey's team tried many times to simulate what was observed based on NIST's claimed scenario, but could never get anything other than a highly non-symmetric collapse.
