The towers fell the way they did because of heat and what it does to steel. After a few floors fall on top of each other they are too heavy for the floors below to hold them up. Now the core and the skin of the building are no longer tied together and the columns start to buckle. Once that happens the rest of the building is history.

Why the Towers Fell, a great show.
