That building needs to get a little more shits so it can stay a little bit better just like tokyo

+Eyaura Eya That is why you are art school and not engineering school.
The plane caused damage over several floors, and the WTC twin tower did not use as many central support as normal buildings, in fact wall support was what made the WTC unique.
The floors basically collapsed under its own weight from the plane crash and the fire which melted several floor's steel horizontal support structures. (It only needed to bend enough, and the floor would crash to the one beneath.) The combined weight was too much for the lower floors to handle so all the floors crush down one by one accelerated by gravity.
Basically imagine a can of Pringles, and each chip is one floor and there are space between each chip. The floors basically freefall on to each other, and dragging the walls along with it as it goes down several seconds later. The central column of the WTC was simply barebone due to its unique design of using walls as part of the support, so it couldn't handle to load after some upperfloors were decimated by the plane and fire.
That is why the building look like it was pulverized, because it collapsed under its own weight from the inside. It is also why it looked like there were explosion from the inside, because the floors crashing pushing debris out of the window from the walls that was still temporarily standing. -
About Tapei101... well this building had just no loads on it during construction, it's pretty normal the damage were minimal. Remember Newton? F=m*a. No mass, no force.

The worlds tallest skyscraper? ...um...I`ll take your word for it. However, I hate seeing damage and people hurt.

C'est dommage

The twin towers burned for about an hour in an oxygen starved, low-heat fire. People above the crash managed to walk down past this intense heat that melted steel and live to tell their tales. There have been many skyscrapers that did burn for 20+ hours and not a single one has come toppling to the ground. Never has it happened in the history of the world besides the twin towers and building 7.

wrong. they fell into a neat pile. Obviously there was some crap that fell off and hit the buildings right next to the twin towers- it's new york and everything is packed together like a sardine can. Building 7 came down in free fall time as well and fell nicely in on itself. Larry Silverstein himself said in an interview he was told building 7 was unstable so he 'decided to pull it.' Weird. Somehow they had explosives already rigged up so he could pull it when he wanted.
