Kevin McPadden – First Responder Volunteer at the WTC
on 9/11. Former Air Force Special Operations
for Search and Rescue specialist and Medic. Arrived after the collapse
of the Twin Towers, but prior to the collapse of WTC 7. Eyewitness to
the collapse of WTC 7. He spent the next four
days searching through the rubble and nearby buildings
for survivors.
- Video interview with WeAreChangeUK 11/19/04:
Regarding his observations at WTC 7, immediately prior to its
collapse. "The Red Cross rep was like, he goes over and he says, 'Well,
you got to stay behind this line because they're thinking about
bringing a building down.' They didn't say what building. They just
said bringing a building down. So, we're like, 'Ok, you know, we'll
take their word for it. You know, we'll stay behind the line.'
And he went over and he talked to one of the -- through all the commotion -- he goes over and he asked one of the Red Cross -- er, one of the firefighters what was going on.. I guess -- I don't know if he got an answer or not. He came back over with his hand over the radio and what sounded like a countdown. And at the last few seconds he took his hand off and you heard '3 - 2 - 1'. And he was just saying, 'Just run for your life! Just run for your life!'
And then it was like another 2 - 3 seconds, you heard explosions, like BA-BOOM! It was like a distinct sound. It's not like when compression, like boom boom boom boom boom, like floors that were dropping and collapsing. This was BA-BOOM!, and like you felt a rumble in the ground, like almost like you wanted to grab onto something. That to me, I knew that was an explosion. There was no doubt in my mind. ... That was Building 7 that fell." http://www.youtube.com

- Interview with Jason Bermas on The Alex Jones Show in which recordings of Barry Jennings were played 6/19/07:
Statements of Barry Jennings: "I was asked to go and man the Office of Emergency Management at the World Trade Center 7 on the 23rd floor. ... [S]ecurity and police took us to the freight elevators where they took us back up and we did get in.
Well, I'm just confused about one thing and one thing only, why World Trade Center 7 went down in the first place? I'm very confused about that.
I know what I heard; I heard explosions.
The explanation I got was it was the fuel oil tank. I'm an old boiler guy. If it was the fuel oil tank, it would have been one side of the building. ...
As I told you earlier, both buildings were still standing. Because I looked to, I looked one way, looked the other way, there's nothing there.
When I got to the 6th floor before all this happened, I got to the 6th floor, there was an explosion, that’s what forced us back to the 8th floor, both buildings were still standing." at 4:30 of the audio segment at http://www.youtube.com
- Statement to reporter 9/11/01: "Me and Mr. Hess, Corporation Counsel [of New York City], were on the 23th floor [of WTC 7]. I told him we gotta get out of here. We started walking down the stairs. We get to the 8th floor. Big Explosion. Blew us back into the eighth floor." http://www.youtube.com
- Editor's note: WTC Building 7 was 610 feet tall, 47 stories. It would have been the tallest building in 33 states. Although it was not hit by an airplane, it completely collapsed into a pile of rubble in less than 7 seconds at 5:20 p.m. on 9/11, seven hours after the collapses of the Twin Towers. However, no mention of its collapse appears in the 9/11 Commission's "full and complete account of the circumstances surrounding the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks." Watch the collapse video here. And six years after 9/11, the Federal government has yet to publish its promised final report that explains the cause of its collapse.

- Video interview: "I was real close to Building 7
[610 feet tall, 47 stories, and not hit by an airplane] when it fell
down. ... That
didn't sound like just a building falling down to me while I
was running away from it. There's a lot of eyewitness
testimony down there of hearing explosions. I didn't see
any reason for that building to fall down the way it
did -- and a lot of guys should be saying the same
thing. I don't know what the fear is coming out and talking about it?
I don't know -- but it's the truth. ...
I think we're being lied to. The only answer to get to the bottom of that lie is a new investigation. I think that the 9/11 Commission Report is a farce. I think that the members that conducted it had conflicts of interest directly relating to not just our government but corporations intertwined with our government. I think it's a farce; that we're being lied to. There's not a word in it about Building 7. Why? ...
I think it's time to demand a real investigation of the experience and let the truth come out in the wash. Because I tell you what, if something, to use a police department term, if something hinky is going on, it will come out in a real investigation, not a farce like the 9/11 Commission Report. ...
I walked around it (Building 7). I saw a hole. I didn't see a hole bad enough to knock a building down, though. Yeah there was definitely fire in the building, but I didn't hear any -- I didn't hear any creaking, or I didn't hear any indication that it was going to come down. And all of a sudden the radios exploded and everyone started screaming 'get away, get away, get away from it!'... It was at that moment ... I looked up, and it was nothing I would ever imagine seeing in my life. The thing started peeling in on itself... Somebody grabbed my shoulder and I started running, and the shit's hitting the ground behind me, and the whole time you're hearing boom, boom, boom, boom, boom.
I think I know an explosion when I hear it. So, yeah, I want to know what took that building down. I don't think it was the fire and it certainly wasn't a plane. Yeah, it had some damage to it, but nothing like what they're saying. -- Nothing to account for what we saw. -- I am shocked at the story we've heard about it, to be quite honest." http://www.prisonplanet.com - Editor's note: WTC Building 7 was 610 feet tall, 47 stories.
