After some googling... it sounds like the tower collapsed after a fire in the tower weakened the structure.

Yeah, the news story I found (very few - it happened just earlier today!) also speculated that it was from an internal fire about 180 meters up which I'm guessing is what you can see when the antenna splits.

Thankfully, the police had evacuated the area because of the fire and doubts about structural integrity under extreme heat. No injuries reported.

The guy you can hear shouting is just pissed off because he was in the middle of a call to his girlfriend.

If you look closely you can see the streams of molten metal from the previously implanted explosives and thermite. Also note that the tower collapses faster than the force of gravity, leading to the inescapable conclusion that evil space aliens created a singularity that sucked the antennae into oblivion.

Nice. years from now when they are still trying to say the 7/15 tower collapse accident. We can point to this post and say, "This is were it all began. No fire has ever brought down a tower! The Aliens must be found and made to tell the Truth. We found carbon in the rubble. Proof that a plasma nuclear milk cow was used."

Just to be fair its not the entire tower collapsing just the upper (antenna?) structure..

You'd still have to be crazy to believe the official story though. It doesn't even ATTEMPT to explain the molten flows and how the first half falls almost perfectly into it's own footprint...

Yeah right! That's what they WANT you to believe. What about building 7?!?!?!?!

Alex Jones has confirmed this is an inside job, perpetrated by Haliburton.

Operation Martian Freedom to begin within 3 months

But, but, I thought a fire in a structure couldn't possibly weaken it to the point of collapse.

Totally meant to do that.
