the clips that held the upper floors snapped when the heat swelled the outer walls.....both buildings
You seem to be confusing building 7 with the North and South Towers....
The South Tower actually had molten steel pouring out of it (temp 2200F). Jet fuel burns at 600F. Where did the other 1600F come from???

Nope.....Building 7 I don't know anything about....I assume it came down because the Towers falling was like an earthquake. Trump said at the time all the buildings around the WTC were weakened to the point of collapse. That's not "melting steel"....it's various burning building materials and electrical-shorts. A Boeing 767 holds 20,000 gallons of fuel. The noses of the airliners were probably flattened when they hit the Tower's steel ectoskeleton, but the fuel ignition in the wings would be far more than enough to punch through and enter the interior. Cement floor hangers....the walls bow out, the clips on the hangars separate from the outer walls and it's a domino-effect of falling concrete...when the load became too much for the remaining floors, the whole thing came down. bin-Laden said years later he had no idea the buildings would collapse.
