Windsor Tower in Madrid, Spain burned for 20+ hours and never collapsed. No steel frame structure has ever collapsed due to fire, before or after 9/11. On 9/11, 3 collapsed, due to "structural failure from fires".

... the windsor tower was ~4x shorter than the world trade center towers and hadn't suffered an impact from a 747 and hadn't been doused in burning jet fuel at that impact site and wasn't within 200 feet of an equally sized building that had just collapsed

burning jet fuel

Why don't kerosene (almost the same as jet fuel) camp stove and lanterns melt? Because it will never ever get hot enough.
