Were there people in the core column of 1 WTC that survived the initial collapse? Is there any way of knowing?
Considering the magnitude and physics of the collapse it would be a good chance some individuals may have ridden it down to their deaths. The sheer kinetic forces of impact emulsified most remains. Between Floors, if you did not make it to the stairwell like the individuals that rode stairwell B down. from this angle, you see the impact into wtc 7 of upper floors you can’t see the damage from this direction. But you can see the core columns near the stairwells still there at this point the remaining structure is falling into the basement levels like a piledriver and this means the parking garage is already cut off so anyone in the mechanical core or main plant are walking dead. The same if they are in part of the basement that did not collapse as it is buried an now smoke from the server Farms and UPS system fires are now entering that area added by secondary fires from vehicles burning in the underground garages also you can feel the air pressure increase.
