Explosion holes

[Rocknrule]

Can anyone tell me why the plane explosions didn't blow giant holes in the other side of the buildings? Like, in OKC, the truck bomb blew the entire front of the building off, but in the WTC, the (probably) bigger explosions didn't leave any gaping holes, only the ones made by the planes entering the buildings. Why is this?

1. A fireball is not an explosion. Eric Hufschmid has a good

discussion of this in his movie "Painful Deceptions" (if I remember right).

Apparently the plane was shredded going through the perimeter columns; the fuel in the wings
would have kept on moving at 400 mph and, breaking out the windows on the other side, most of
it would have exited the building in a third of a second.
