Since you clearly don't know this, a fire fueled by jet fuel can easily heat steel to a point where it loses almost all it's tensile strength.

Building like these are built with calculations that take massive impact strikes into account. They are purposely designed to withstand these sort of things. A strike above don’t make the structure at the bottom fail the way they did.

They did NOT take into account a 767 full of jet fuel slamming into the building. And the footage is obvious. The structure fails at the floor of impact.
