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".

You kids. 😁

Not sure if I already said this elsewhere, but that first floor that collapses in his scenario would have quite a few floors above it - Presuming the collapse would begin in the most damaged place.

Haven't studied the videos, and don't remember if it was obvious where the first part to collapse was, in relation to the impacts and fires.

That's aside from steel beams having 45 degree cuts, and other 'oddities'.

And then that peculiar healthy structure below in which you can see explosive detcord and PETN streamlining down the elevator shafts in three floor increments ahead of collapse.
